Kirsty Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Kirsty, I have some names you mention in your list but I noticed you haven't put them in the names interest section of the forum. Perhaps you could do this and then exchange e-mails with those who have the same interests. Can I suggest all the others replying to this post who havent done so also add the names they have an interest in. Thanks for the tip. I've added some names to the forum and am keeping my fingers crossed for some replys. Happy ancestor hunting. Regards, Kirsty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 New Members Please don't be afraid to make new topics about your surname interests. It's okay posting on existing topics but if the title doesn't reference your particular name interest then it won't be found as quickly from the forum/name interests search functions.

Also, I've have TWISS' married to FORSHAW's. Hopefully we have a connection. I have a public tree on Ancestry.co.uk if you'd like to take a look for more details on my Jackson's, Harrison's, Twiss', Forshaw's and anyone else who may be of interest.

private person Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Hi Kirsty Your link worked great. How did you do it? I have been doing both my Holden and Naylor lines from St Helens on Ancestry and would like to make their info available to the group incase someone sees someone that they can connect to but I can't figure out how to do it.. I know the tree has to be public and I have it as that but other than sending out invites to those who want to view them I can't see how you were able to just send a link for anyone to view. I cked HELP but couldn't find anything on it. SO if anyone wants to ck my Holden's and Naylor Lines out on Ancestry please email me and I will be glad to send you an invite to view them email address is slc33@texas.net Both are still a work in progress and am adding info all the time befor and after work and my day off.

Kirsty Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Hi Kirsty Your link worked great. How did you do it? Sharon swtx Hi Sharon, I'm glad the link is working - I wasn't sure that it would when I originally added it to my posting. To do the same go to the home page of your tree (you'll have a choice of tabs above the pedigree view of your tree; stories, photos, family tree, people & home - just click on the home tab). Once on the home page copy and paste the web-address of the page of ancestry you are on. I hope that makes sence my computer/internet lingo is lacking. If you have any problems please e-mail me. Here is another link to my tree just incase anyone wants it: http://trees.ancestry.co.uk/fhs/home.aspx?tid=1515094 I have several St. Helens & Lancashire family names in my tree including: ABBOTT BAINES FORSHAW HARRISON HEATON JACKSON LITTLER NAYLOR NICHOLSON PARKINSON TWISS UNSWORTH Happy ancestor hunting, Kirsty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stiffknee Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 To Kendy, Maggie May and me share the Tabron or Taberner family tree. Our great grandad John Darlington (Birchall) was the son of Mary Tabron from Great Sankey who married Joseph Worral Birchall in 1855 in Sutton, and her father was Thomas Taberner born in Burtonwood in 1786. Son of Timothy Taberner and Phoebe Williamson married 1775 Warrington. Can't get back any further than this. The Birchall's in Sutton lived in Welsh Row very close to Thomas Taberners brother William and his offspring. Would love to know if you have any connections, and really appreciate any info on that line that would help take it back as far as 1651!!!!!!!! Wow! Maggie asks who your wife is by the way?! Something to do with a connection with Rhoda Darlington and George Anders. She's closely linked there. Thanks, Steph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloggie Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 My Jones's were in Sutton in the 1800's, before that Herefordshire.Harrisons link into a few branches. Hi Jill, This is my first post on the forum, just joined yesterday. My 3x-great-grandmother Ann JONES was born c1833 in Sutton or Marshall's Cross (depending on the census). She married James COOP in Prestwich in 1855 and her marriage certificate gives her father as William Jones, occupation Railway Inspector. Looking at censuses I have found a William JONES in Sutton of about the right age to be her father, who is a railway labourer in 1851 and a railway policeman in 1861. His place of birth is given as Stretton (Herefordshire or Staffordshire depending on the census). Ann does not appear on these censuses with this family, but I think I have found her in 1851 working as a servant in Scotforth, which ties in with her residence at time of marriage - given as Lancaster. I wondered if this the same JONES family you have in your tree? And whether you have found a daughter Ann for them at all? Thanks, Sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jill Posted August 17, 2007 Author Share Posted August 17, 2007 This William is the same as my William born Merton, Herefordshire 1841 Baxters lane, ag lab 1851 Paradise Row, railway lab 1861 Church St, railway policeman 1871 Church St, imbecile (that's kind!) died 1874 He was "married" 3 times I think 1st marriage unknown, daugter Jane b 1838 maybe in Herefordshire 2nd marriage Mary Lowe, son James 1840, Thomas 1842, John 1848, Henry 1850 3rd marriage, Hannah, daughter Esther 1854, William 1858. I have never come across an Ann, but this doesn't prove anything. I havn't looked at this side of the family for some time and think it may well be worth revisiting and rechecking my info.

Cloggie Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Thanks Jill, I had found the 1871 census with "imbecile" as well and wondered what might have happened to him. Perhaps he'd had a stroke or something? What a horrible way to describe someone! So far, this William Jones seems the most likely father for Ann based on the location and occupation, but that doesn't prove anything of course, especially as I haven't yet found anything to connect Ann to this family. I do have a photo of "my" William, and also one of Ann. I don't suppose you happen to have photos of your William so we could compare?

jill Posted August 17, 2007 Author Share Posted August 17, 2007 no I don't have anything about this branch of the family. William was my paternal grandmother's ggrandfather. Everything I have is from public records. Though I do mean to get his death cert at some point to see what happened to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jill Posted August 17, 2007 Author Share Posted August 17, 2007 There is an Ann Jones bap 5 jan 1834, bor 28 nov 1833 Burtonwood, father William mother Sarah. This is a different family to mine, perhaps they link to yours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloggie Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Thanks very much for that Jill! Where did you find that? This is my first connection with St Helens and I'm not familiar with the area at all, so will have to learn about the surrounding places, etc. I will see if I can track that family down in the censuses. EDIT: I've just found that baptism at Lancs OPC. I wouldn't have thought to look in Burtonwood - I'll have to study the area! Thanks again!!

jill Posted August 19, 2007 Author Share Posted August 19, 2007 Try the downloads tab at the top of the page, there is a lot of info gathered by members, including census indexes and parish records. I have found it very useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloggie Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Thank you Jill. That's very useful. I've now found Ann in the Burtonwood baptisms, as well as what looks like a sister, Betty. No luck yet finding the family on the censuses though. Although I have found a possibility on the 1841 census in Lancaster (Ann's place of residence on her marriage certificate is Lancaster). The William Jones there is an Inspector of Plate Layers for the railway, so that is also something that could tie in with his occupation of Railway Inspector on Ann's marriage cert. Still all just "maybes" though, but I will keep searching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
