The Douglass Family of Chertsey and Egham, Surrey
The Douglass family of Chertsey and Egham, Surrey. Our Douglas ancestors were the forebears of Elizabeth Ellen Douglas who was born in 1864. Her father, James Douglas (born 1837), was the fourth successive “James” in the family. It is often assumed that with the name “Douglas” the family must have come from Scotland and this may be true? However the first recorded James in this family was born about 1733 and was living and working in Chertsey, Surrey as a watch and clockmaker between 1769 and 1791. His father was John Douglass, though his origins and birth are not recorded. The surname was, at that time, spelled Douglass. Many of the watches and clocks which came from the workshop of James Douglass, in the late eighteenth century, were evidently very fine timepieces and some are still in existence and available through antique sales today. He appears to have been declared bankrupt in 1791 and he died in 1805 in Chertsey. His wife was Letitia Joyce, who was born about 1733 – the fourth child, of nine, in the family of Joshua Joyce (a baker) and his wife Elizabeth Chitty of Godalming in Surrey. Joshua Joyce was born about 1699 and was the son of another Joshua (born 1664). His christening evidently took place in Godalming, his parents being recorded as Joshua and Mary. The older Joshua is remarkable in genealogical terms as the names of his parents, grandparents and great grandparents are all documented. His wife was Mary Chitty. The Joyce family can be traced back to Henry Joyce who was born around 1560 and was a cardmaker in Godalming. -

Explore Hampton Court Palace and Legoland with All the Family
Explore Hampton Court Palace and Legoland with all the family How long do I need? Two to three days Where is it? Surrey and Windsor Highlights For a great family break, you need plenty to keep the whole party amused. Hampton Court Palace and Legoland both make an amazing day out, with plenty of attractions and rides to keep everyone in the family happy. If you have any energy left on day three you can visit Mercedes- Benz World museum – great for motor enthusiasts! Get behind the wheel of Mercedes-Benz, recapture the do-or-die spirit of Brookland’s 1930s motor circuit and tour G-BBDG - the 1,350 mph Delta Golf Concorde. Day one: Spend the day at Hampton Court Palace beside the River Thames The majestic highlight of the first day is a visit to Henry VIII’s Hampton Court Palace, in its splendid setting beside the River Thames. This magnificent palace both awes and entertains its visitors, just as it did in Tudor times. Henry took the riverside residence from his fallen favourite, Cardinal Wolsey, and held court here in the series of rooms which we can still see today. Family trails, costumed guided tours and a variety of special activities rekindle the spirit of what life was like here under England’s most colourful, much-married monarch. It’s easy to picture Henry himself in the imposing Great Hall used for banquets, receptions, balls and other functions; in The Great Watching Chamber, where bodyguards were stationed to manage the ebb and flow of courtiers; in the Chapel Royal where he worshipped every day and in the sometimes chilling Haunted Gallery.
