I am looking for information about my DREW ancestors who lived in Ruscombe and Hurst. Grace DREW was baptised in 1735, I think at Ruscombe, to Richard DREW (b 1682 Hurst) and Rebecca ABEAR (b 1701 Wargrave).

She had one brother Richard (b 1730) and five sisters Rebecca (b 1732) Rebecca (b1735), Jane Mary and Anne (last three died in Hurst in 1740/50s unmarried). Rebecca DREW married William BRAYMER/BRAYMORE who died in 1763.

Grace DREW married Thomas COLLIS, born about 1735, a man who had business interests in Hurst, Winchester, Sherfield Hamps and possibly in Sparsholt.
