James
VAUZEY was christened on 31 Oct 1770 in Sunninghill, Berks1. He was buried on 23 Nov 1804 in Sunninghill1.
In the Sunninghill Parish Register his baptism, burial, and his
naming as the father on his daughter's baptism are recorded by
the surname WHEESY, a corruption based no doubt
on how Vauzey was pronounced. The correct spelling
of Vauzey is confirmed by the Bond of Indemnification where James signed
his name "James Vauzey" .
His occupation has been recorded as :-
Footman (Bond of Indemnification 1790)
Recorded addresses :-
Sunninghill, Berkshire (Baptism 1770, Bond of Indemnification 1790, Burial
1804)
Winkfield, Berks (most likely from around 1774 until leaving home,
as the rest of his younger siblings are baptised in Winkfield)
James had an illigitimate daughter Sarah. James was committed to
paying her maintenance by the issue of a Bond of Indemnification (Bastardy Bond) in 1790 by the Sunninghill
Parish Officials. James' father Mathias Vauzey was also bound by
the Bond, presumably as a guarantor for his son.
Sarah POCOCK was born about
1770. She was buried on 19 Apr 1836 in Egham, Surrey1.
Recorded addresses :-
Sunninghill, Berkshire (daughter's baptism 1790)
Egham Parish, Surrey (Marriage 1792, Burial 1836)
Sarah had an illigitimate daughter Sarah in 1790. The father of
the child James Vauzey was committed to paying her maintenance by
the issue of a Bond of Indemnification (Bastardy
Bond) by the Sunninghill Parish Officials2.
Sarah subsequently married Thomas Green 12 May 1792 in Egham,
Surrey and had a further 8 children.
Sarah's origins and ancestry are uncertain. It is possible that
she is the daughter of John Pocock and his wife Sarah (nee
HOPKINS), however further research is needed on this.
