Switching gears, and looking at my EWER family in the villages of Clewer, New Windsor and (Old) Windsor, three villages close by one another in Berkshire, and across the river from Eton. My ancestor Edward EWER was transported to NSW as a convict.
As part of reassessing a few loose ends I'm putting here records I've gotten from those villages. Those in italics are accounted for in my tree. I will add more records as I gather them.

St George Chapel (Windsor Castle)
Given that this chapel is in Windsor Castle, these births may be
families associated with the castle and royal family, rather than the
town. They may of course be related.

Margaret Frances Ewer, born Mar 1757, bapt 15 Apr 1757, parents John and Elizabeth

My ancestor Thomas EWER was born abt 1770 and married in Clewer in 1790. I can find no trace of his birth, but there is a Joseph c. Joseph/Susanne at Windsor 1771 in the parish records for Old Windsor, that suggests that this is Thomas' brother and his parents were Joseph and Susanne. The final entry above (Susan, 30 Apr 1812) may be her burial. It is certainly the earliest EWER burial there, and would connect the family together.
