The “Philip Wedgwood Saga”.

This unassuming pamphlet is my latest genealogical purchase – please don't let my wife know, she despairs at the number of books that arrive at the house! By chance, I noticed this tem for sale via Amazon.com's "marketplace" forum, priced just $9.95 – with grateful thanks to the strength of the Pound! (at least on this occasion). It is described thus:

Book Description



This pedigree corrects and continues the descendancy of Philip Wedgwood 19th generation in Wedgwood Pedigrees, a book written in 1925 by Josiah C. Wedgwood MP and his distant kinsman Joshua G. E. Wedgwood. This is the Philip Wedgwood who m. Jane Mulcaster in 1858 at Dearham Church, Cumberland. Authored by William Wedgwood, Valpre, Fauvic, Grouville, Jersey, C.I. 15 pg. stapled booklet measures approx. 4x7".


 

The seller adds that it formed part of a private library. I will be making well-placed enquiries as to whether any other Family related items are available. I will transcribe the contents and make the GEDCOM available via the site.
