Family History and Research
Gloucestershire (GLS), England
We
have a brief reference from a commercial source stating that our immigrant
George came to Virginia by way of Gloucestershire. As we have been unable
to find records of his marriage to Susannah Nicolle and the birth of their
children, this may be a place to look.
We need to research
marriage records that the LDS microfilmed from the Shire for the 1640s
and 1650s (see email below).
However, in Landers,
page 85, he quotes a land grant given to immigrant George in Gloscester
County, Virginia. This either indicates that George's relation to a Gloucester
is in Virginia, or perhaps because he had property in Gloucestershire,
England, his grant was made for the Virginia County by the same name.

There
is a film at the LDS of Gloucester Marriage Allegations which goes
back to the 1600's . It's full of detail and properly typed out.
I hate those little bit of parchment, they are hard work to read.
The film gives so much detail too of Bondsman etc.
