| Birth | Cam is the likely location of Charles' birth but it is not certain. There were 2 baptisms in the Dursley area circa 1740 for a Charles Summers. This is the most likely: Register Type: Bishop's Transcripts for Charles Summers Baptism Date: 8 May 1738 Parish: Frocester, Gloucestershire, England Father: John Summers Mother: Olive Summers Frocester is 4-5 miles from Dursley and Cam. Extract from Lewis's Topographical Dictionary of England, 1831. Transcribed by Mel Lockie, © Copyright 2010 CAM, a parish in the upper division of the hundred of BERKELEY, county of GLOUCESTER, half of a mile (N. by E.) from Dursley, containing 1885 inhabitants. The living is a vicarage, in the archdeaconry and diocese of Gloucester, rated in the king's hooks at £6. 13. 4., endowed with £800 parliamentary grant, and in the patronage of the Bishop of Gloucester. The church is dedicated to St. George. Several of the inhabitants are employed in the manufacture of woollen cloth; and the place is also, noted for the superiority of its cheese. A great part of the parish lies very low, and frequently sustains considerable injury by the inundations of the Severn. In 1730, Mrs. Frances Hopton bequeathed an estate for the erection of a school, and the education and clothing of ten boys and ten girls: the income is £163 per annum. In the reign of Edward the Elder, a battle was fought here between the Danes and the Saxons. |
| Marriage | Register of Dursley Parish: Charles Summers of the parish of Cam in the county of Gloucester, batchelor and Martha Vizard of this parish, spinster, married in this church by License this second day of January in the year 1760 by C Wallington. |
| Death | From the parish register: p 20 #153: Charles Summers, Dursley, 12 Jan 1817, age 78. |
| Note | As of 2009, Charles and Martha are the presumed parents of Frederick Summers of Dursely, based upon baptism records of Dursley. They were the only Summers family that had a son named Frederick in the 1780s. There was a George Frederick Summers born to different parents, but apprenticeship and other records from the 1800s show he was not Frederick Summers, the soldier from the 35th Foot. |
