PRIVACY ISSUES
The primary purpose of these family trees is to preserve the history
of the families and to enable contact between members. So I include
living members and a method of contact if I can. If for any reason you
would like any of your details changed, please let me know.
16. Numbering systems used
Everyone gets an ID number and a generation number.
These make it easy to search up for parents, grandparents & sibs,
& down for sibs & children.
The number at the start of the line indicates the order of descent from
the initial couple who have ID 0, say
0 0-James DEACON b 1691 Portsmouth d 1749. Alderman of Portsmouth
m sp-Elizabeth ANTRAM 1697-1782 Portsmouth
Their children are 1 1-[name], 2 1-[name], ..., (10) 1-[name], ...
So their ID numbers are 1, 2, ... and their generation numbers are 1.
Similarly the children of say ID 52 are 521 3-..., 522 3-..., 523 3-,...
and so on. For ease of reading, a space is inserted after the 5th digit.
So the number before their name, for example 2- ,
is their generation number, counting that of the initial person as 0.
So if u want the parents of person ID 496 3-xx, search upwards for 49 or 2-
or 49 2- . And if you want their children, search downwards for 4-.
Now write down the ID number of a recent ancestor from 1.1 SUMMARY
and scroll down til you find them. - It’s a big file. You can use ctl-F to search on a keyword, such as that ID number. Then ctl-F SUMMARY to get you back to SUMMARY.

it on saturday the 24th of May at two in the afternoon at my sister Varlo's

With a manly fortitude he bore for 18 days the excruciating torments of that

parish, Berks. Parish registers pre 1704 have not survived but the name FRENCH
occurred in Ashbury & there were DEACONs in Lambourn, Berks.
His grandson ID 15 James below wrote "My grandfather lived at Ideson. James
DEACON my grandfather was married to Mary FRENCH at ----- by whom was born my
Father Geo. DEACON. Grange [referring to ----- ?] it lyes between Newbury &
Hungerford in Wiltshire it belong'd to Robt JACOBS - it's near Hamstead House."
Continued at ## below under 15.
Here is that extract and the one following at ## below:
For photos of the church at Ashbury see www.oxfordshirechurches.info/
PH 23.8.05: Hamstead House was close to Hamstead Marshall between
Newbury and Hungerford and was a property of major historical importance.
(It was the home of the Earl Marshalls of England. It burned down 1760s.)
Clicking the link below it will give more information. Hamstead Marshall was
also often known as just Hamstead.
http://www.hamsteadmarshall.net/history.html
An engraving of Hamstead House c1700 is at
http://www.eng-h.gov.uk/reports/hamstead_marshall/figure1_2.gif
Assuming George DEACON and his wife Jane LOVING lived close to
Hamstead House, bmd church records would most likely come within the Parish of
St. Mary's, Hamstead Marshall.
Their website below shows they have .. records dating back to 1612
http://www.hamsteadmarshall.net/church/registers.html
PH (cont.): I also taken a look at a number of old county maps. 17th century
maps have Newbury and Hungerford in Berkshire. However Hungerford
often appears in Wiltshire maps, showing it to be just in Berkshire.
Richard GREEN rwgreen@tdlmail.co.uk emailed me 27.6.07:
I with my wife Penny live at Rectory Farm Idstone and was interested that your
ancestor was .. there in 1700, any further info would be very welcome.I have
always been intrigued that there is a Rectory farm but no church here. I am a
working farmer, tenanting from the church commissioners this farm 780 acres,
they also own two other large farms in the next village, Bishopstone, having
held this estate from since about 1850.The only other historical info I have
is that in 1340 a Peter de BATHON was granted a licence for a chapel in his
manor at Ideweveston (Idstone) .Before this in 1252 John de Button Rector of
Ashbury exchanged one acre of land by Rectory Court for one acre of the Lords
land owned by Glastonbury which had a great Abbey and was an important
religious centre in the middle ages.

YET TO SUBSTACK
<!-- PH 23.8.2005
I am not fully convinced that Ideson and Grange are one and the same place.
The entry in the DEACON Family book is a little unclear and I think it may be
referring to two different places:
Ideson where 0 James DEACON and his wife Mary FRENCH lived, and a Grange near
Hamstead House where 1 George DEACON & his wife Jane LOVING lived.
James DEACON (b.1696) [15 I have b1691 = 0 of 1.2] stated in the first
paragraph that his Grand Father lived at Ideson. This is followed by a new
paragraph (slightly indented) about his grandparents and father George DEACON
[1]. A new sentence starts a third paragraph, again slightly further
indented. Perhaps James DEACON'S (b. 1696) parents George DEACON and Jane
LOVING lived at a place called Grange near Hamstead House. It would have been
so obvious to him when he made the entry in his pocket book that he simply made
no mention of who lived at Grange. Also, when he made these entries he had no
idea they would later be cut out and placed in a DEACON Family book, so he was
essentially writing for himself.
-->
#In RH's version he is of Laeson, son of 211 Richard DEACON d1601 of 1.4 below.
ie RH gives the tree at 1.4 from 0 down to 211 m Miss OGLANDER of Bembridge.
m sp-Mary FRENCH
There are several different forms of spelling. In the 19th century descendants
tried to prove she was of Norman descent and there is a book in the British
Library, "DEACON and Allied Family". JD: this book is full of conjecture and
not really an authoritative source.
(IGI has many MF's bp'd in Portsmouth 1728-1860 but no Mary FRENCHATTs.)

Here is a 1967 letter to JD from the Berks County Archivist discussing FRENCH & Ideson:
- yet to proof read!
ROYAL COUNTY OF BERKSHIRE
Our R1: WS/VCT~1858 Your Rif.
BERKSHIRE RECORD OFFICE
WILLIAM J. SMITH M.A.,F.R.Hist.S.
COUNTY ARCHIVIST, SHIRE HALL, READING Telephone READING S S9 8 I EXT 230
26th January 1967
Dear Sir,
Thank you for your letter of January 25th. I am completely Unable to trace
'Ideson', or anything like it, between Newbury and Hungerford. Looking at the
list of Berkshire wills of this period. I find that while there were a.
number of DEACONs in Newbury (which fits the picture well enough), there was a
fairly prolific FRENCH family (there are no FRENCHATs) in the parish of
Ashbury, a downland parish north-west of Hungerford.
In Ashbury is the hamlet of Idstone. Although Idstone ranked as a separate
sub-manor, Ashbury was a demesne manor of Glastonbury Abbey until the
Dissolution, a. circumstance which may account for the use of the term Grange.
The list of FRENCH testators in Ashbury includes four between 1568 and 1594
who are specifically described as 'of Idston' (or 'Edwinston', its earlier
form).
It seems to be possible, to say the least, that James DEACON married a French
girl and through her got a house at Idstcne - whose (location was not so well
known to the writer of your document as he thought it was!
I know of only one fact tending to discount this theory, viz, that there was a
JACOB family in Inkpen, the neighbouring parish to Hamstead Marshall.
The Ashbury parish registers, which are here, do not survive earlier than 1704,
otherwise I could check the theory by that means.
Yours faithfully,
(signed WJ SMITH) County Archivist.

2.1.2 IGI marriages for DEACON at St Thomas, Portsmouth 1654-1865 :
One can order the microfiche from LDS of the marriage registers for
St Thomas a Beckett, Portsmouth 1776-1812 Compiled by A.H. COLTART MA 1934.
It lists if bride & groom had marksmen. (Is this like the best man?)
However it excludes the witnesses.
There are discrepancies in spelling with the IGI (eg WELLSTEAD vs WOLLSTEAD,
STADON vs MADON). I also found a m in it NOT on IGI:

Margery's son Richard in his will Cons Sarum, 28.6.1619 (my ref 1619CS2.txt)

Samuel DECON married Mary KEATS in North Bradley, 23 March, 1788, witnessed
by Richard BUTCHER and James FRANCIS.
**1696-1757 ex John DEACON 2007:
1 Henry DEACON an executor of his brother
2 John DEACON d1711. A prosperous yeoman farmer of Oare, Vale of Pewsey,Wilts.
21 Elizabeth DEACON born 1696
22 Henry DEACON 1699/1700-1757 This Henry made his fortune as a wine merchant
in London and returned to Oare to build a fine house in the 1740s. He left a
widow but no children so the house passed out of the DEACON family. The house
forms the centre to which extensions have been added by subsequent owners.
My cousin GTD sent me an illustrated prospectus of the sale of The Oare House
Estate in 1976. It was sold by Sir Alexander DOWNER former High Commissioner
for Australia. The estate amounted to 95 acres. Geoffey pointed out that the
finial to the main gate decoration was a Nags Head. This is the crest of the
DEACON family surmounting the coat of arms and used by succeeding generations
of our branch down to the present time.

who sent me Fanny's parents and siblings in 1974:
The City Archivist, Portsmouth Record Office, Guildhall, Portsmouth,
Hamts. Ref RP/RE/74/213 (9.7.1974) For further work he suggested
Mr M WALCOT, 46 Park Rd, Purbrook, Portsmouth PO7 5ES;
Mrs P FURSE, 1 Avenue Rd, Winchester, Hants;
Mrs AM CLENCH, 1 Bond Rd, Bitterne Park, Southampton SO2 4LR.
I had no further luck until 2000 when I contacted "Joan in Colorado"
epistles@email.msn.com and she sent me the IGIs for DEACON in
Portsmouth and much more. (See under Henry in 1. and 2.1.) Many
thanks to both these kind people for going the extra mile for me!!
Also to Jim WRIGHT and others mentioned in the text.
c8.4.2002 came the big break:
JH (10)5271 11 Jean HENNAH in 2018 Jeanhennah@hotmail.com
found a query on DEACON I had posted on a Hampshire gen'l website.
Most of the material on this site is from her, including the WILLS of:
Sarah nee BEDFORD wife of (10)5 William 1857,
(10)522 Fanny 1908,
(10)523 Henry George 1872,
(10)57 Elizabeth Love 1878,
(10)5(11) George Edward 1882,
(10)5(13) Frederick 1896,
and certificates of
BIRTH (...),
MARRIAGE ((10)72 Henry & Eliza Gittens PETTET,...) and
DEATH (...)
I am profoundly grateful to her for so generously sharing all her information!
On 13.9.2002 I got a reply to a PETTET posting at KENT-ENG-L@rootsweb.com
from
Jo MORRIS mariner@iinet.net.au informing me that
Henry PETTET (1695 Whitfield- 1768 Deal), grgrgrfr of Eliza Gittens PETTET 1816
who married (10)72 Henry DEACON, was her 5x gg uncle!
I put the PETTET & related families up at
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~kitwithers/pettet/pettet.html
- YET TO PUT ON SUBSTACK.
On 25.8.2003 I received an email from
SR Mrs Sue ROSE Suerose14@btinternet.com 2003
giving me more details of our BEDFORD family at 4.1.
On 5.10.2003 I received an email from
BT (10)4138 12 Bridget THURGATE bridget.thurgate@sky.com 2005
who'd found my DEACON entry on Rootsweb. She has sent me the info on the
branches (10)5?, (10)7, (10)767, 69 the portraits of (10) Wm, (10)4 Elizabeth,
(10)7(11) Rev. George
PH (10)5(13)24 11 Phillip HOULIHAN Phillip.Houlihan@btinternet.com
First contact 18.5.2005. Source for the branch at (10)5(13)24 . He told me of
the NZ branch of (10)5(13)28 3 Pam HW, who put me in touch with her son
RH Richard HAMILTON-WILLIAMS (10)5(13)28 34
who showed me his DEACON tree 2005.
JD (10)5(13)24 3 John DEACON wrote me 22.5.05 after being told of this website
by PH. John held the DEACON Family Book dating from 25.4.1782 when several
pages were removed from the family bible after the death of Elizabeth JUDSON,
sp of (10), on 19th March & later stuck in a scrap book. Our family is
fortunate to still hold this book.
JD says it came to (10)5(13) Frederick 1814-98, then to
(10)5(13)2 Charles 1845-1927, then to (10)5(13)2 1 Wilfrid 1877-1958, then
probably to (10)5(13)28 Lilian 1891-1978. "Soon after her death it was sent to
me by post by her eldest dr Hilary & was left on my doorstep in a parcel that
would not go through the letter box... The page from the family bible that Wm
DEACON 1733-92 cut out in 1782 was on the reverse of the frontispiece of the
New Testament: `Newly translated out of the Original Book with the former
translations diligently compared and revised by His Majesty's Special Command
appointed to be read in churches WR' - So this is William 3 after the death of
his wife Mary 2 on 24.12.1694 & prior to his death in 1702. It is on this page
that George DEACON, married to Jane LOVING, has written the names & births of
his chn or those surviving at the time of his writing."

"The Archives Centre holds records previously held at Ramsgate and Folkestone
Libraries, Whitfield store, Hythe Town Council and some records from The Centre
for Kentish Studies.
The collecting area for the Centre covers the Thanet, Dover and Shepway

We hold the records for the diocese of ROCHESTER, which was one of the
main issuing authorities for marriage licences in Kent. Unfortunately,
there are no marriage licences within these records, although there
are marriage bonds and allegations dating from 1637 until 1986 (with
many large gaps). Those for the years 1637-1900 have been microfilmed,
but later material will have to be consulted in the document
searchroom. To ascertain whether or not we hold the years you require,
you will have to first consult the diocesan catalogue (reference:
DRb/M), although the microfilms are arranged chronologically.
At CKS, there is a chronological, manuscript index to the names found
among the ROCHESTER diocese marriage bonds and allegations for the
years 1637 to 1840 (allegations only after 1823).
Additionally, full abstracts have been published of the diocese of
Canterbury's marriage allegations, bonds and licences. These cover the
years 1543-1869 and can be found on the library bookshelves at CKS
(reference: xK 929.3). However, those for the bonds and allegations
dated 1700-1734 are available only in a microfiche format (reference: K 929.3).
