I am researching my mothers ' Traveller ' Surname family Tree and have 3 connecting Marriages with the Brace families of Sawbridgeworth. The one I am currently looking into is the Marriage of Jesse Brace ( Male Christened 9 March 1817 (IGI ) ) and Hannah Brace ( Christened 3 June 1818 daught of Phillip Brace and Susanna Bassel ) . On the IGI there is a list of 16 children of Thomas and Elizabeth Brace. It is clear that there were at least 2 couples with these Christian names at this time. On a website called GenCircles there is a Brace Tree on which a Thomas Brace Marries an Elizabeth Chapman ( 1804 ) and has children Elizabeth ( c 1818 ), Samson( c1812), Sally (c1812), Emma(c1819),Ruth (c1818), Susanna (c1807),Gabriel( c1810) and not on the IGI that I saw, a Jane ( c21 Dec 1821 ). From the IGI this leaves a list of: Eliza (c1818), Rose( c1820),Edmund (c1810), Elford (c 1823), James (c1804), John (c1811), JESSE (c1817). I have a William Brace Abt 1815, Sacombe , Herts and Sarah Brace Abt 1816 Sawbridgeworth as siblings of my Jesse but would welcome confirmation. I wonder if you have searched the Records and identified Jesse's sibling and parents certainly these families look like a devils of a puzzle to unravel. I also welcome info on Phillip Brace and Susanna Bassel I am pretty sure that there are still descendents of the Brace families living in Sawbridgeworth to this day.. - Clif Knight ( London
