Sources & research

Son of Emmanuel Chedzoy #62 (mason, Stoke St Gregory) + Sarah Way #1792 - established from the 1881 SSG census (named in #62 household as son "Ernest", b.~1868 SSG) [TNA RG11/2362-2365]. {CENSUS-IMG} 1901 Wales Census: Head, West Hall Farm, St Athan, Vale of Glamorgan; farm bailiff/farmer; wife Annie E (b.~1872 Glamorgan); daughter Annie E (b.~1900, West Aberthaw) [TNA RG13/5046-5049]. A SSG-born Chedzoy who moved to the Vale of Glamorgan. ADDED 21 Jun 2026 from the census run (image banked: census-1901-st-athan-ernest-chedzoy-NEWFAMILY.jpg). TODO: birth/marriage/death certs; add wife Annie E + daughter Annie E; check 1871/1891/1911 censuses. {LEADS} Full name Ernest Eli Chedzoy (per Ancestry record set). Records to pursue: 1871/1911/1921 Wales census, Glamorgan baptism, Somerset baptism, GRO marriage + death index, probate, Glamorgan electoral registers, AND a New York Arriving Passenger List ("Mr Ernest Chedzoy") + US Family History Books - so he may have travelled to / emigrated USA at some point. Verify. {CENSUS-IMG} 1911 Wales Census GOT (his own householder form): Ernest Eli Chedzoy, Head, 42, Farm Labourer/Farmer, b.SSG; at Llanblethian, Cowbridge, Glamorgan. Wife Elizabeth Ann (39, married 12 yrs ~1899, 4 children all living); children Alice Elizabeth (11, b.Aberthaw), Sarah Jennetta (8, b.Aberthaw), Ernest Charles (4, = #792) and Edgar (2). Signed E.E. Chedzoy. TNA RG14/32556 sch.24. [image attached] {USA LEAD - paywalled} Ancestry hints a "Mr Ernest Chedzoy" in New York, U.S. Arriving Passenger & Crew Lists (Ellis Island, coll 7488) + U.S. Family History Books - i.e. an Ernest Chedzoy travelled to the USA. The record is behind the Worldwide tier (not in current subscription) so the detail/date is unconfirmed; could be this Ernest Eli or a namesake. Confirm via Worldwide tier or free US passenger sources (FamilySearch/Ellis Island). [21 Jun 2026] {DEDUP 21 Jun} Merged duplicate #630 "Eli Chedzoy b.1869 SSG" (FreeREG baptism capture) into this record - same person: baptised Ernest ELI, Stoke St Gregory 1869, son of Emmanuel #62 + Sarah Way; the 1881 census names him "Ernest" b.1868. So baptism (1869) + census/marriage life (Ernest Eli) reconciled here. {BMD} Death registered Q1 1952 Bridgend, age 84, GRO 8b/94 [FreeBMD, Chedzoy, 22 Jun 2026]. Marriage to Elizabeth Ann #2097 registered Q4 1898 Cardiff, GRO 11a/503. {FINDAGRAVE} Death 9 Mar 1952, buried St John the Baptist Churchyard, Llanblethian (consistent with GRO Q1 1952 Bridgend, age 84).
