My husband and I moved to Clacton on Sea year 2000 and soon afterwards we visited the Priory. We enjoyed the visit and recently 2011 I was doing more research on my family tree (May family) when I discovered an ancestor Edward Leverett on the 1841 census, who appears to be my 3 x Grandmother's brother (still have to be proved) who was Gamekeeper and address given as Priory Lodge. He was aged 50 and with him his wife Elizabth and their children Edward and daughter Elizabeth. Also Lucy Leverett aged 20 occ: Female Servant address also Priory Lodge. For all these Leveretts Res. district given as St. Osyth. I am very excited about this find as we used to own a holiday chalet in St. Osyth so the area means a great deal to me and my family. It is amazing to think that I was born in East London, then moved to Dagenham, Essex and on to other south east Essex locations and retired not far from St. Osyth where my ancestors orginate from. Can't wait to find out more info. Hope to visit the Priory again this year.
