Hi Anne,

Is this John Chidgey born in West Somerset, possibly St. Decumans parish? If so, I would be interested in this certificate, as it would be the brother of my ancestor Richard Chidgey.

Hi Anne & Caroline,
I have a Chidgey tree with a Robert born abt 1844 and he has a brother Richard. Their parents are Robert Chidgey & Anne Stevens. I have Robert's place of death as Snells Williton 8 Nov 1909. Roberts parents are John and Martha and his grandparents are Richard & Catherine. I am interested to hear more from you. My email is kchidgey AT bigpond DOT.com

Hi Kevin - Sorry but all my Chidgeys are from the Salford/Manchester area and none of the names you mention are connected to my tree.

Hello Kevin

My g x 2 Grandfather's Mother was Rebecca Newick, but his Father was William Chidgey (see below) As you can see Henry William C Newick was illegitimate. However in deference to his Father he gave all his children the middle name of Chidgey.

Dear Simon,
Thank you for your reply to my posting. I have checked my database and unfrotunately cannot find a connection to family group you have listed. Nonetheless I keep all sucj records for posisble future matches and I have drawn up a family tree. Unfortunately this web site only allows jpeg attachments. Please email me direct if you would like a copy and I will happily make corrections. kchidgey AT bigpond DOTcom. Do you know of the other names in the tree that connect to your generation. Perhaps that might bring about a connection to one of my existing trees of the Chidgeys. Best wishes. Kevin & Liz
