HANNAH CLAYDON (1787-1843) & THOMAS DAGLEY

Hannah Claydon was the second child of Laurence and Mary Claydon. In the parish transcripts for Fringford is a marriage record for Hannah Claydon on December 9, 1823, to Thomas Dagley.

In the 1841 British Census, Godington, Oxfordshire, is head of household Thomas Dagley, age 43, agricultural laborer, born in the county; Hannah, age 43; John, age 16; Jane, age 14; James, age 12; William, age 10; Mary, age 8; David, age 2; and John Claydon, age 3. John Claydon is the son of Hannah's brother Thomas [Class: HO107; Piece 885; Book: 16; Civil Parish: Goddington; County: Oxfordshire; Enumeration District: 6; Folio: 4; Page: 3; Line: 13; GSU roll: 474574]. John's brothers, James and Henry, were staying with their paternal grandparents, Laurence and Mary Claydon, in Fringford.

In the FreeBMD Death Index is "Hannah Dayley, 4th quarter 1843, Bicester, Vol. 16 pg. 21". She is not listed in the parish transcripts because only those records with the surname Claydon were compiled. A more detailed examination will probably reveal a burial for Hannah. In the 1851 British Census, Godington, Oxfordshire, is Thomas Dagley, head, widowed, age 68, agricultural laborer; Jane, daughter, unmarried, age 26; and David, son, age 11 [Class: HO107; Piece: 1729; Folio: 452; Page: 13; GSU roll: 193638].

Hannah was mentioned in the will of her brother, James Claydon: "Second: I give and devise to my brother, Thomas Claydon, of Solihull, Warwickshire, England, such sum as shall be equal to two hundred pounds English money: to be by him divided as follows – one eighth thereof to the heirs of my brother William Claydon, late of Oxfordshire England, who are now living in England – one eight thereof to the heirs of my sister Anna Dagley, late of Godenton, Buckinghamshire, England..."
