Anyone with a Clipsham Astle in their tree will be descended (Clipsham as middle name) is descended from a Clipsham-Astle marriage of 1834. Similarly Kingston Astle, of which I have details.. Please also note that most of the Clipshams of West Ham and Leigh-on-Sea are also connected to this tree, as indeed will be many Astles of West Ham.
This branch of ASTLEs is very numerous and so hard to disentagle So, if any of this rings bells, please contact me.

Thanks for the (quite accurate) lookup. However I've done all that research and a lot more, and am in contact with everyone who appears to be posting a relevant tree. I'm just posting to see if I can catch anyone who is approaching it from a different angle, to see if I can ring any bells. It's worked before!

Yes, Maria married into a large branch of Astles in London & West Ham, and founded quite a sizeable branch of her own. Because of all these Astles it's hard to work out who's related. Genes Reunited contacts have been very helpful, but the One-Name Study does not seem to have much on this so far.
