Stuart-Thompson Family History

The  STUART-THOMPSON  dynasty came into being when the children of  Walter Stuart THOMPSON  were each given the Stuart name. Although these children's births were all registered as Stuart THOMPSON, their children were registered as STUART-THOMPSON. Walter's wife  Ethel Frances CLARKE  connects the family to the  SYDENHAM  family, whose linage can be traced back to  William de SIDENHAM  (born around 1125), and has a link, through marriage, to  Francis DRAKE . The top of my reseach tree was  Humphrey SYDENHAM  whose father, also named  Humphrey SYDENHAM  is the link to the  SYDENHAM family   that owned the Brympton d'Evercy manor house near Yeovil in Somerset. I have now been given the connections to the Brimpton Sydenhams and have added them to the tree. Use the links on the left to find the  individual  or  family  that you are interested in.
