Gough family

 

* * *

 

Part 1: Joseph Gough (? - ?)

 

The Gough family had links to the Maisemore area, Gloucestershire, dating back to the mid-1600s (Maisemore is a village just north-west of Gloucester). Almost nothing is known of the ‘first’ Gough, Joseph, who lived in the first half of the 18th century, except that his wife was called Mary (surname unknown) and they had five children: John (died aged about 10), William, Robert, Joseph and John. They were all baptised in Ashleworth, a village north of Maisemore.

Next: Robert Gough
