No baptism that I can see between 1752 and 1812 in Hampshire, Merry.

Are you sure the name is Scuffield and not Schofield?
Thanks for looking, Elizabeth.

I'm not sure of anything, CC!
The bastardy order for Charles' daughter is at the Hants RO. Another researcher gave us the details:
Bastardy Order dated 5/7/1809, Exbury, states that Charles Scufield is the reputed father of a female child of Ann Willis, born 5/2/1808
I wouldn't be at all surprised if he was actually Schofield ......

Still nothing showing up in Hampshire, unfortunately.

There is a family called Scuffell. They lived in Fawley, but no Charles early enough.
My geography is not what it should be but a Peter Scuffell (Ind, not b in county aged 65) is in Fawley in 1841, having had a son Charles bp in 1808. Possibly a brother?
What about this:
Charles Andrew Scovell in 1861

So born c. 1785 at Stone, Bucks.
If that were the right man, it was after he married Editha in 1805.

There's quite a lot on him found by Googling, but I haven't found a baptism yet. However, Bucks. baptisms are sometimes difficult to find.
Oooh, this is looking interesting! I have been waiting for OH to have any part of this branch reaching out of the new Forest! Fawley is really close to where the rest of this branch of OH's family lived.

He seems too grand to have had a bastardy order slapped on him and definitely too grand to be mixing with the Willis family from Boldre!

Perhaps Ann Willis was hard to resist!
lol Elizabeth!
Ann produced two illegitimate children in her 20s and only married when she was in her late 30s. No children from the marriage.
Ann's younger sister, Sarah, was the prostitute who was murdered by her soldier client in Lymington in 1815. He was the one who was found not guilty of murder despite the heap of evidence against him.

Your OH has interesting ancestors, Merry!:D

You'll have to list all the alternative spellings of Charles's surname, Merry.
Good idea.
I'm sure I've seen other records for Scuffield from Hants RO. I'll have a look at OH's old notes tomorrow.
