---

G11 Thomas STALWORTHY was our start; now, we're at G-11, ready for Joseph (born 1826, christened June 23, 1837) to marry Hannah MIDDLEDICK, Sept 7, 1845 in Boyton Church, Boyton. Hannah, born 1823, died 1879. G11-172 William born about 1847, c.

Stollery 185 is Mary Elizabeth, of 1878, and 186 Horace William, 1881 - 1940. (Sidebar: Is he a victim of World War II?) As if the Michaels of G10 weren't enough, here's G11-135 Michael, born and c Mar 16, 1819; he married Mary, 1845, and they had daughter Jane 187, c. October 19,1845, all in Shottisham, Suffolk.

G12: Shakers and Movers Or, living through the San Francisco 'quake of 1906, should we say the 'movers and shakers?' We'll get to the movers in a moment.

G12-195 is Jessie Ann, born Nov. 10, 1879, in Hollesley. She had two husbands, Alfred John Foster (children 243-246) and Henry Richard Whiting. G12-197 George William was born in Hollesley, Dec. 21, 1889, and was buried there Apr. 15, 1955. He and wife Harriet FISH (1891-June 12, 1975) had daughter 247 Kathleen in 1913.

His bride was Eudora Wiifred SMITH (of Poole, Dorset. England, Aug. 30, 1883: they met in San Mateo), their wedding date May 5, 1906; he died in Sacramento, Calif., Aug. 2, 1965, and she died June 8, 1985; they are interred in the family plot in San Mateo, Calif. (St. John's Cemetary). Their family was four: 254 David John Junior, Mar. 22, 1907-Oct. 1, 1991; 255 Edward Wilfrid (*the book spells it Wilfred but it's wrong) "Ted" Jan. 11, 1909 to Jul. 13, 1994; 256 Joseph Gordon, Aug. 6, 1914 - Feb. 14, 1999; and 257, Frederick Arnold, born May 16, 1922. (257 is the publisher of the basic reference for these pages, published Mar. 19, 2001.) G12-212 George Wilfred had been born April 5, 1883 in Bow, London; he married Vi, Aept. 16, 1911, in San Mateo, having traveled there either with 211 David John or to follow him there. George and Vi arre childless, and are buried in San Mateo, George passing Jan. 23, 1953. (Many thought that 211 David John named number 2 son 255 Edward Wilfred after George; 255 Edward's certificates indicate the spelling is WILFRID, which one anecdote has it was 'created' by mother Winifred to throw the entire family off track. It worked!)
Footnotes to our history If you haven't tumbled to your editor's shorthanded space-saving techniques, then this 'graph is for you. LAST NAMES. Everyone is STOLLERY unless otherwise specified. LOCATIONS. Up to this time, it's been ENGLAND or Eng or E. We try to track the family as it moved about, but *some of the places aren't on current day maps (and some of us are not cartographers); *some of the references are to CHURCHES, some to COMMUNITIES, and some to CITIES - within Suffolk, or elsewhere in England. It's only that late in the 19th century, young men were not alone in getting 'itchy feet' and wandering across the world. CAN is Canada; USA, the United States, and AUS, Australia, of course. NZ therefore is New Zealand (we'll meet some there) and no doubt we'll track Stollerys elsewhere -- IF we have your help! SPACE is somewhat at a premium. You can tell this is a free service by 'freeservers' -- these pages have advertising -- and because they ARE free, they are limited to only so much space. That being said, SEND ME YOUR INFO and I'll juggle it around. Your own family page can be linked from here; these pages are merely the skeleton of our family, and of the Stollery family at that. I'll be glad to link to Alfred Miller's family's pages (Charlotte Stollery's daughter Eliza married a Hammond, their daughter was Charlotte who married a Miller...) and of course we'll link to the Crisps and others as well. CORRECTIONS as to dates, etc., will be gladly made as needed and necessary. Please address all CORRECTIONS to "CQ" edstollery@yahoo.com ... COMPLAINTS should be directed to your favorite pastor. He, or she, is a better link than I to your God.
