Family Trees

Researching Family Trees

I have researched some families which the Pope’s married into. This is not exhaustive and further information would be appreciated

ANGER
Anger research covering Bishopstone, Faringdon, Little Hinton, Shrivenham and Stanford in the Vale areas, during the 18th to 20th century, and the the children from Anger/Pope marriage.

help! Susannah Anger married Charles Pope at Bishopstone (nr Swindon) 1808, but he has disappeared from any records by the time of her death in 1844. There is no reference to him on her headstone nor being a widow.

With thanks to Maurice Anger for details of the Arthur Anger stem.

CUE
