Notes for William Vizard
In her will, his first wife Maria Susan née Hughes, Vizard referred to he husbands as William Vizard the Younger. This normally implies that his father was also named William. On the other hand the only baptism found William is to a couple name John and Hanna Maria Vizard in Dursley, Glos.
In the 1851 census, William reported that he was born in Dursley, Glos in c.1809. So I wonder who the William Vizard the Elder was? A brother, just to confuse. Or an uncle?
In 1861 his eldest daughter of his first marriage was with them: he, his second wife and a total of 8 children.
So this has to be his baptism:
> Dursley > 1578-1812
“ A Copy of the Register Book of the parish of Dursley
“. . . .
“ October 1808
“. . . .
“26 William son of John & Hanna Maria Vizard Baptd.
