PEERS family of Essex..Bocking?

Posted: 17 Aug 2010 4:25PM GMT
Classification: Query
Surnames: Tweed, Dunnett, Traveller, Moule, Knight, Slowgrove, Warne, Blackhurst
In the Will of Jane Amphillis Sibley nee Berthon ( 1832 ) she makes reference to the Will of an Aunt Jane Pritchard.

In trying to locate this Will, I got the Will of a Jane Pritchard 1827 of Bocking, Essex, which was not the one I was looking for but had a few surprises.

In the Will Jane Pritchard nee PEERS mentions

Her Brothers William and John Peers.
Her Sister Sarah Peers.
Her Cousins Sarah, Mary and Frances TWEED... daughters of Thomas Little TWEED .

She also mentions a John Gilson? and his 2 daughters Alice and Caroline Gilson.
Also a William and Mary Gilson.

There are no clues via the IGI, best I can think is that this Jane is a sibling of Elizabeth Mary Tweed, also I believe of Bocking, Essex, who Married Robert Tweed in 1783, Thomas Little Tweeds brother.

If any one knows more on the Pers family it would be appreciated.
