To confirm the parents of John Arthur (wife Sarah Keen)

Father John Arthur
Mother Elizth Arthur

Elizabeth WHO?
John must have been born abt 1770?

I have found that Henry Arthur bapt 1801 had a brother Charles bapt 9/1826 and buried 12/1826

Welcome back, Michael.

You mean Henry Arthur, baptised 1828 . The 1801 baptism was his father John.

Yes, he had a brother Charles, born and died 1826, Bourton on the Hill , parents John and Sarah.
Also Mary 1831 (who is on the 1851 census with Henry and their parents, already posted) - and William 1834-37.

Re Henry's grandparents, John and Elizabeth, such old records give very little helpful information.
Unfortunately, you may never know any more about them.

I think you would find it helpful to compile an accurate family tree, to which you can refer, to avoid getting confused about the generations.

I don't know which website you use for research, but there's a tree on Ancestry which suggests that John Arthur was born c1768 in Blockley, parents George Arthur and Anne Buggin.

Ancestry trees are notoriously unreliable, so you would have to do some very careful checking before accepting this as in any way accurate.

When you have had a break from research one should go back to check if new record sets have apppeared or old ones updated.

Gloucestershire wills to 1858 have been indexed by Ancestry and if you haven’t already you should check them out.

added: just a thought. I know you are loking at a Y match but have you done a dna test with other sites? They may have a wider match list.

Trying a different approach..................

THIS is the man's burial record

Thank you all for your helpful responses on 30 May thru 5 June.
My own fault for confusions since I use/have used too many websites "more haste less speed" I first used Genes then added Ancestry plus others. Much of Ancestry lists "easy to find" info.
I am endeavouring to document the correct info that I have to paper, also adding it to my Legacy file.
Will keep trying.
If there are no objections I plan to share the U.S Arthur info with my cousin in Maryland.

The US info is all available on genealogy websites, including Ancestry .

Use it as you would any other such info.

If, as your last post suggests, you have access to Ancestry, you can find for yourself all the info I have posted..................
