Pigin of Badsey and Worcestershire Mysteries |
(this family group has the number E7; note that Badsey is fairly close to the home of the E2 group in Stratford-on-Avon) The preponderance of "Pidgeon" in the Badsey parish records suggests the "Pigin" entries are merely a variant, not a true Piggin. The "Pigin" variant is confined to a 60-year period 1540-1600. See the website http://www.badsey.net/history/p.htm |

Richard PIGEN % Alice Tubb 1615/10/10 Butlers Marston, WAR Edward PIGEN: father of Martha PIGEN ~ 1615/02/04 Butlers Marston, WAR It seems clear that these too are instances of "Pidgeon" crudely spelled. David Turner has kindly noted for me the following from the Quarter Sessions Trinity 1625: 'Alice Pidgeon, wife of Edward Pidgeon, was coming to Butlers Marston upon Friday last to her brother (blank) Tubb and Rowland Greeneway, her brother in law, where she was lodged, and left at Butlers Marston'... her two children, one of which was born there, and the parishioners have had to maintain them since. Tubb and Greenway ordered to bring Alice back to Butlers Marston 'and in the meantime ... (not having land to be taxed with by the yard land) shall pay with the rest of the inhabitants towards the said charge' |

at Sheffhales (Sheriffhales), SHR: baptisms of a Piggen and a Piggin associated with the burial of one of them, spelt Picken. All 1808 to 1811. Ian Pidgeon suggests these are probably the "piggin(g)" pronunciation, not "Pidgeon". |
|||
And 150 years later: Catharine PIGGIN born 1876b Oswestry |
|||
Note too that Frederick Piggin stated at the 1881 census that he had been born (circa 1826) in Worcester town. However his father would appear to have come there from Sheffield. |
