THE BAYLISS FAMILY



    THE BAYLISS FAMILY


This chart shows five generations of the Bayliss Family originating with

  1. Hi Ernest, I am a member of the Bayliss family, one of many I imagine I was browsing the Internet when I came across your site. There were some striking resemblances between our families. My Uncle was called Ernest, I believe it was my Grandfathers family that lived in Westcliff on Sea (as well as south London) and there are/were family graves at I believe Southend. I have some old family photo's of the graves, as well as some of the family in the garden and I think of the house as well at Westcliff. I have never followed this up before and am a little vague about the dates etc till I dig out the old Family box in the loft. I'm not that good with computers,I Pads,Twitters and blogs and I'm never quite sure of the language. I always thought a mouse was a small furry rodent. I see I am now being asked to select a profile. I don't understand, I think I'll be Robert Redford.
    Cheers, Mike Bayliss

  2. Hi Mike,
    Thanks for your comments. I doubt that we are related. Although I live in Westcliff my name is not Bayliss - that was my mother's family and the one I chose to research as (at the time) I knew nothing of my paternal line. Before I moved here in '86 the only Bayliss connection with the area was my aunt Esther whose maiden name was Bayliss. My uncle Bert lived for many years on Canvey Island but that is about as near as the actual Bayliss name got to Southend or Westcliff. The family, from about 1845 was mainly in North Islington around the Archway area. If any of your family came from there it is possible there is a connection.

    I do hope you enjoyed the blog. I won't be continuing with it as I have been concentrating on writing a 45,000 word book about my direct ancestors, concentrating on my parents and grand parents. This is now finished although some editing is needed. When that is done I may start blogging again but I have no idea about what - probably not genealogy.

    Which area are you currently in?

    1. Hi Shirley, How interesting. Can you tell me anything about your grandfather? My Herbert Bayliss died in 1918. I know there were other Bayliss families in the area and, of course, I remember Vorley Road very well. Do you remember a family calle Stevens who lived there? Hope to hear from you again.

    2. Hi, I know very little about my grandfather I think he died around 1958 and he was an underground train driver. I knew the Stevens family very well, they lived opposite us,
      I was friendly with the youngest daughter called Doreen. I think they lived next door to a family called Turner who had a daughter Kathleen

  4. I don't know if we are related for sure but after the death of my grandfather, Herbert Bayliss, in 1918, my grandmother Esther married a man named Parrott who changed his name to Barrett, so there may indeed be a connection. I remember the Stevens, boys, one of them sold me the family cat which I called Susie and kept for many years - I always wondered if he told his parents what he'd done !

    2. Responding to your last blog comment as can't find any email adress for you.

      Do you know anything about a Herbert Bayliss Silver, who in 1931 purchased a piece of land in Harrow? The only other mention of someone of that name is in link below - rt-hand column - where he's listed as a cadet in the Royal Garrison Artillery

      Thanks.

    3. '...address', obviously, not 'adress'. Apologies.

    4. I just bought a house in Harrow and the first entry in the land register was made in 1971 - the seller being Herbert Bayliss Silver.

    5. Thanks for this, and apologies for delay in responding (usual excuses...).

      Do you have an address for the seller?

  5. Hi Ernest,
    Going by dates your grandfather could well have been my grandfathers father, I know so little about the family, seem to remember an Oxford connection being mentioned and my grandfathers sister lived on Canvey during the floods in 1953 don't know her real name as grandad called called her sis.Strange also the Parrott connection too, although it was many years later I became a Parrott.

    1. Hi Shirley,
      Pretty certain we are not close relatives, if related at all. Your grandfather was Herbert Frederick Bayliss, born 1893 in Islington and I am unaware of any connection.. I'll look a bit deeper and see what comes up.

  6. Hi Shirley,
    My grandfather Herbert did indeed have a son called Herbert (b.1903) and he and his wife Ada lived on Canvey Island during the floods in 1953. They had two children, Esther and Iris, both of whom emigrated to Australia. Herbert's bungalow was behind the Admiral Jellicoe pub at Leigh Beck on the island. I have many happy childhood memories of Canvey - I live not to far away at Westcliff-on-Sea.
    My uncle Herbert certainly wasn't a train driver though.

    1. Hi Mike, I came across a lot of Birmingham Bayliss during my research. I'm pretty certain I'm not related to any of them. It is a very common name in that part of England.

  12. Were Richard and Mary, William Bayliss' parents? Did he have siblings? What were their names? My Bayliss family tree goes back to Richard Bayliss 1760 of Temple Guiting, Gloucester.

  13. My mother, now aged 92, has asked me if I can find anything out about a man called David Bayliss who she knew briefly circa 1948 when they were both in their 20s. He was the son of the owner/MD? of HP Sauce. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

  14. My mother was Doris Elizabeth Bayliss, daughter of Richard Bayliss and grand-daughter of Alfred Bayliss from Apperley in Gloucestershire. She always said that two of Alfred's brothers had moved to London (although Alfred himself moved to the north west and then Wales) so there may well be a connection. She also said that her London relatives had been buried in Highgate Cemetery. If anyone can add anything to this, I shall be most interested.

  18. This is fascinating. I am a great-great-grandson of John Bayliss (1852 - 1919 [although I thought he might have died before then]), through one of his other sons not listed here.

  19. my name is Judi Gibbs n I live in Australia. Migrated here 30 years ago. My grandfather was George Percy Bayliss an Englishman in the British Army in South India maybe Bangalore around 1924. He met my grandmother who is now deceased (Mary Josephine) and had a daughter Mary Dorothy Jane on 7 June 1925. She is 93 years old and lives in Mumbai India.looking to find anyone who knew him.TKU

  20. Hi Ernest, sorry I didn't reply to your previous comment, I hadn't noticed you'd replied. I have managed to work out that your grandad Herbert Bayliss would be my 1st cousin 3 times removed. His uncle John Bayliss, my great great grandfather (1852-1919) whom married Ann Trew, is where my tree is connected. Their son Albert Frederick is my great grandfather, his son George Arthur was my grandfather and his son Roger is my father. Keep up the good work, its fascinating reading and also very helpful to others researching their trees because it is a true account of family links (rather than some ancestry websites which can be confusing and sadly I've noticed people have added wrong family members). Regards, Christine.

  21. I'm still looking fr information about my maternal grandfather Percy or George who was sent to South India during the war around 1923 ...he had my mum with Stella in 1925 and named her Dorothy Jane Bayliss. He died in India.

  22. I am a descendant of a Birmingham Bayliss family and I was also born in Birmingham. My ancestor was Edwin/Edward Albert Bayliss born 1816 who was a Bricklayer (father Joseph also a Bricklayer) then later a Contractor. He lived in Chapel Street and Dudley Street but Unfortunately nobody knows what happened to him as he seems to have disappeared on the 1861 census and his wife Elizabeth who ran the coffee House/dining Rooms in Dudley St had remarried by 1867. Elizabeth's son Willian Henry Bayliss(also known as Hughes) was Photographer working from Holte Rd, The Parade, Garbett St and King Edwards Rd. My grandfather Charles Henry Bayliss ran a coal/haulage business in Oozells Street North and family still run Bayliss Garages in Smethwick. Regards Peter Bayliss

  23. Yes..it's so hard to trace yr family when they go to a foreign land like my grandfather Percy Bayliss who was deployed in the British army to India. He had a relationship with my Indian grandmother (Stella Rosario) n had 2 children with her..one boy who died in childhood and one girl Dorothy Jane Marie who die this January 2020. So the link is broken forever.
