If anyone in the village knows anything about this family, I’d be interested too if it relates to the village. There is a Wikipedia entry about Thomas Tresham, a wealthy and still renowned house builder (he paid, not actually built it himself) in Nottinghamshire who was involved in the political and religious complications of the (first Queen Elizabeth) times. He was father of the Elizabeth mentioned in this request. One of her brothers was involved in some alleged way with the gunpowder plot, but they had not lived in our Tresham. Their ancestors may well have come from here, as it is thought the Tresham family was from Gloucestershire, and this seems to be the only one in England.
I will let her know this, but I suspect she has already discovered it.

I have had to close the Comment facility on this post because I got a lot of spam.
I wrote back to Stephanie at the above email address but it was rejected:
“Thank you for your email, Stephanie. I have lived here for 45 years and I’m afraid none of the names you mention are familiar.
I think the best I can do is post your message on the Tresham website inviting anyone who has information to get in youch with you.
Kind regards
Richard”
I assume it is a genuine enquiry in which case anyone can still write to me at ‘editor’ via the ‘get in touch’ button at the top of the Home page.
