Pedigree of GLAYSHER
Serialised in the Parish
Magazines
Oct 1905 to Feb 1906
All Saints' Churchyard, Headley,
Hampshire, England

I wish to thank The Headley Society for the their 1999 project of recording and
placing all headstone names on the Internet and
John Owen Smith in particular for his generous assistance and
research.
To the north of the Church Tower there is a Monument:
In memory of
Sarah
wife of William GLAYSHER
who died
June 23, [born
1730] 1771
aged 41 years
A faithful friend there lieth here
a wife most
kind, a mother dear
in peace she lived, in love she died
her life was craved
but God denied.
This William and Sarah had six children baptized here; but, except that the youngest died an infant, there is no further record of the children.
William Glaysher re-married in 1775, and died in 1805, aged 77. His widow died in 1812. No trace clearly connects (doubtless a close one) with John
Glaysher, the ancestor of all local Headley Glayshers. It was thought that the
family might have come out of Churt, but, by kind courtesy of the Vicar, the
Frensham registers reveal no Glayshers in Churt in the eighteenth century.
John Glaysher, Born 1770, married in 1795 Anne LOE; she died in 1833, aged 59;
and he died in 1855, aged 85. They had eight children of whom the second was:
THOMAS, born 1798. In 1827, he married Mary Ann MAIDMAN, and died in
1875. She died in 1877. Their children are:
George, married Jane BOWLES and died in 1894;
Andrew;
Charles, married Rebecca ROBINSON;
Thomas;
Ellen, married to Jonas SHRUBB who died in 1899;
William.
To the south of the Church Tower there is this memorial:
In affectionate remembrance of
Thomas GLAYSHER
who died
October 9, 1875
aged 77 years.
Mary Ann
his wife
died July 13, 1877
This stone
erected by their son Thomas
The third son of John and Anne Glaysher was:
GEORGE, born 1801. In 1823, he married Lucy COOMBES, and he died in 1870. She
died in 1872. Their eldest son was:
William, who married Anne NORTH and died in 1884; having had:
Mary Ann, Mrs BOWYER;
James, of Churt, Surrey, England, married Sarah KING; (both with their offspring
emigrated to Canada and then the USA. James is my great grandfather, father of JACK
GLAYSHER, who was the husband of MYRTLE CORA STUCK.
Ellen.
To the south of the Church Tower is this Memorial:
In

that day when I make up my jewels.
