According to the information I have, Thomas Way ELDRIDGE (b. 2 Jun 1805,
Southampton,) Robey ELDRIDGE (b. 1 Dec 1806, Newport, IOW) and James
ELDRIDGE ( b. 1808, Newport, IOW) were the three children of Robey ELDRIDGE
and Catherine WAY. These ELDRIDGEs are part of the rich family, to which
(as far as I know) I am totally unrelated. I didn't do the research on this
family, but I do have some notes that say that Robey ELDRIDGE was a curate
at Fairford, Gloucester when he married Jane PITTIS.
