Trying to find any information about Timothy William Kersey,probably born about1784 at Hadleigh in Suffolk.He was a coachman but whether this means in private service or a stagecoachman I don't know.Don't know who his wife was,but he had a son called William Isaac Kersey who was born in Bury St.Edmunds in 1814/16 and worked as a stagecoachman in 1841 and an omnibus driver in 1851,having moved to the London area.
I'd love to be able to find out more about Timothy William K.---who were his parents,did he have any siblings,did he have any other children?---but don't know how to go about it.I can't travel to the Suffolk Records Office.Any suggestions anyone?
