Richard, Ann & Frederick Morris of Cheltenham - Cheltenham
I am interested in this family because an ancestor (William Feast) was visiting in the 1851 census. Both Frederick and William were young bookbinders, and I am particularly interested in where they worked. It is possible that William was actually lodging with the Morris family.
As it happens, both Richard Morris and William Feast were born in London; could there have been a connection even though a generation apart?

JOB FREDERICK BIGGS AND HIS TWO WIVES - Cheltenham
My paternal great grandfather JOB FREDERICK BIGGS was born in Bristol in 1854. He was a commercial traveller in drapery and linen. He moved to Cheltenham soon after the marriage to his first wife Sarah Jane David in 1890 and they lived at Merton Lodge/House on Leckhampton Road close to the station. SaRah Jane died in 1925 and later that year he married for a second time to a widow Minnie Maria Lloyd. By then they were living at 'Wyesham' on London Road. Minnie died in 1932. Job died in December 1934 aged 80. I dont think that he and his wives had any children. (My grandfather, born in 1878, and his sister in 1879, were the children of Job Frederick and Phoebe Bright and all used the name Biggs after 1890. I can find Job Frederick in the census 1891 and 1901 census,and have obtained the relevent certificates, but would like to know a bit more about the lives they led in Cheltenham at the turn of the century. Have their names come up in anyone elses research?

Elizabeth was the widow of Henry Fisher whom she married in London 1840. Before that she was the wife of John Feast whom she married in London in 1827; their surviving child was William Feast, a bookbinder who was born London 1836, and lived in Cheltenham and Charlton Kings c.1851-1864.
I have no record of Elizabeth Fisher in Cheltenham until the 1871 census, living at 12 Whitcombe Place where she died 1879.
I am searching for any other information about her life in Cheltenham. She was living in London in the 1841 census, with her husband Henry Fisher and son William. I have not with certainty found her in the 1851 and 1861 censuses anywhere in England.
