<<Overall General Interest>>
Reading and other families, based in and around Harbury & Bishops Tachbrook Warwickshire, England :
Known family members are Thomas Reading his wife Sarah (Sabin) Reading plus their son Thomas Reading and his wife Mary Ann )(Sprawson) Reading - specifically their daughter Sarah Ann who marries John Harris and moves to live in Swan Village West Bromwich, note: -
a) Current thinking = John Harris's origin is Worcestershire (Netherton Rowley Regis area) and that he and Sarah Ann met in West Bromwich through mutual acquaintances in Swan Village, that is Sarah Ann was either a friend or relative, for instance of : -
- Elizabeth (Calloway) Harris married to elder brother Joseph Harris
- Rosanna and William Bates with whom Elizabeth (Calloway) Harris was staying on the night of the 1841 census. Is Roseanna a direct relative of Elizabeth (Calloway) Harris noting Rosanna's maiden name is Calloway[1]
(note: list of Calloway references further down page)
There is a remote unexplored possibility that the Harris's of West Bromwich and those of Harbury are directly related and that helped trigger John Harris's and Sarah Ann's friendship .
Of a more general interest is the history of the Reading, Sabin, Sprawson and especially the Calloway families who live in and around this in the 1800's and who can be readily traced back to the 1600's
SPECIFIC THINGS TO DO - TC LIST's for a rainy day but much to do elsewhere - November 2018!
A) Add profiles for remaining 5 children of Thomas Reading & Mary (Sprawson) Harris as detailed on 1841 census [2]
B) Biography for Mary (Sprawson) Harris Including details of her second marriage [3] to William Bird (profile required) as shown on 1851 census [4]
C) Add profile for Thomas Sprawson the father of Mary (Sprawson) Harris, refer marriage to William Bird above. Is Elizabeth Sprawson, the other witness at the marriage, the mother of Mary (Sprawson) Harris - add profile for mother?
D) Check parish records for other 'Sprawsons'.
E) Add profiles for John Woodhouse the husband of Sarah Harris plus profiles for their daughter Emilie and son Frances .
C )History of Harbury any relationship with Netherton, Rowley Regis - looking for migration of Harris family.
