Nehemiah Shakespeare on BCC here:

married Sarah Meese in 1783. She was b 1755 daughter of Thomas Meese (b 1729) and Ann Gregory (m 1754) - they are also the parents of one of the Thomas's mentioned above. The Thomas b 1729 was the son of William Meese (1690 - 1751) and Jane (no marriage found) - one of their other sons was Joseph Meese (1719 - 1803) married to Ann Read in 1744: this couple were the parents of the other Thomas mentioned in the earlier post.

Ann Read has an interesting connection: she was b 1723, d of Joseph Read and Jane Green - their son (and Ann's brother) Samuel (b 1720) moved to Kidderminster and married a Hannah Hanbury, and among their children was an Elizabeth Hanbury Read b 1752, Kidderminster, m 1776 Kidderminster, and died 1828 in Wolverhampton. The reason she died in Wolverhampton was that she had married one Benjamin Mander (1752 - 1819, Wolverhampton) - one of those Manders.

(All places/ dates mentioned are Kingswinford unless otherwise stated).

The earlier Meese's in Kingswinford seem fairly straightforward to trace as there were few of them, and go back another generation to the mid 1600s. I am still trying to sort out some of the later ones, such as the Susannah Meese here on BCC:
