The Favell and Wallis Line

This page is part of Irene Gladys Whiteman's web-site.

It contains what is known about the uppermost segment of the Wallis family-tree. Susannah Wallis married Samuel Maxey Wagstaff, and had Caroline Wagstaff (1820-1893), who was Rene's Great-Grandmother. Caroline married a Whiteman and bore Rene's Grandfather Henry William Whiteman.

This page is entirely from the tree sent to me by Jane Gravelle of Nazeing Essex in December 2006. She says "the pre 1800 tree is speculative at this stage, having been gathered only from the Mormons free IGI". One day one of us may work up the energy to purchase the Bedfordshire Parish Registers back to the 1500s on microfiche from the Bedfordshire Family History Society or in hard copy from the Bedfordshire Archives.
