hi sylvia, many thanks for all the info yes thats the right james and rachel.and the children all tie in.

i am a beginner in this ancestry search and to using a pc.

how do i go about finding his parents and to make sure i have the right ones.

i think its james buggs and mary.

he was born 1764, and they wed in 1888.

she was born in 1766.

which other trees also show ........... but they dont have my james and rachel in them which is confusing me.

maybe i have the wrong mary (weller)

no one else seems to have the same family line as mine which makes it harder to find a match.

my g/father was james buggs 1871
partner was emma elizabeth spain

his father was also james buggs 1832 and he was wed to louisa smith/jarrad

his father was james buggs 1795 wed to rachel hawkins.

which is where i am stuck but thankyou for your time and info much appriecated

Hello again.

Marina, it doesn't look as though you have a tree on here with your Buggs family in it!!

I've just had a look, and there are oodles of members on this site with Buggs from Meopham in their trees.

You really need to get this family onto your tree and then look for connections on this site. Several have James ..............etc.

This is from the IGI.

Marina has asked me to look at MCA and I have asked her to watch this thread for replies!


Marina.......there is a marriage on 29th January, 1788 at Meopham between James Buggs and Mary Weller. Witnesses......William Buggs and Elizabeth Weller. Seems likely.

Hi Marina and welcome to the boards!

Have you tried searching Medway City Ark? It's a fantastic site and Meopham parish records are very well recorded on it.

How do I know? Well......my Goodwins came from Meopham and the name Buggs keeps appearing in the records...they would have known each other!

If you have any difficulties with the MCA, come back to me because I absolutely adore searching through it!

hi kathleen,found his christening on all the forms i looked at
but there are so many james buggs from that area its hard
to know if i have the right one.when i get in touch with other
tree owners they dont have the same line going back to
my dads line.its confusing as there is four james buggs.
james 1871/james/1832/james1795/ and if the next one is also james no wonder i keep going round in circles.
htanks for your e-mail. regards marina :S

i have ancestors james buggs (1795) and rachel hawkins(1795) d.o.m. 1821 in kent but cant seem to link james up to his parents.james was born in meopham kent.census shows they lived in ash kent when son james (1832) was born.other children born to them were rachael emily/
tabitha/amelia/ i thought that perhaps james buggs 1764
was his father but cant seem to link up to other trees that
ive seen.would be very grateful if anyone has any info as i
have searched everywhere.thanks. marinaki :S
