Hello & welcome. I'm currently researching both mine & my husband's trees. We have roots from different parts of the country.
My chief interests:
Northumberland
Armorer - Elsdon 17th century & afterwards
Common -Alwinton/Harbottle
Hakin - mainly Cramlington, but branches all over. Roots pre-1830 are in Swaledale, N. Yorks.
Green - Elsdon area
my great grandmother Ruth Common, taken just before she married, in 1894
and her husband, my great grandfather, taken between 1902-1907.
their eldest son, my grandfather
and his wife
my dad, taken early 1950's
other
Mead - Essex then Esher & London
Symes - Somerset & S London
Bunting - from Matlock via Birmingham to 20th century Middlesbrough
Cray - originally from Bradford-on-Avon via the Isle of Wight, Portsmouth, London & Newcastle on Tyne
Richardson - Swanscombe area (Medway) Kent
Tovey - Somerset
My current brick walls are primarily due to the distance involved in getting to grips with local records offices, hence at the moment I'm stuck at about 1800 on most of my Southern ancestors. Tracking the Mead connection to Essex and Crays to Bradford-on-Avon are my main priorities just now.
If anyone comes across a John Spencer, a gardener, who married Elizabeth Judd (from a shoe-making family in Faringdon) in St James Westminster on 21 December 1823, with a daughter Elizabeth Martha born a year later in Faringdon, I'd love to know. John appears to have died not long after Elizabeth was born & I'm having fun trying to find out where he might have been born.
My Husband's interests
Cheshire - all around Macclesfield
Gaskell
Ridgeway
Malburn & variants
Staffordshire
Higgins
Turnock
Ireland
Burke & Hunt probably from Mayo or possibly Sligo
Redmond - no info before 1850's
Lancashire - predominantly the Leigh & Wigan area
Attlebury - Little Hulton/Worsley (where did they come from before this?)
Bentham - Standish
Derbyshire/Darbyshire - Standish then Leigh
Hyde - Wigan then Leigh
Molyneux & variants -Tyldesley
Smith -Culcheth
Taylor -Culcheth
Would love to hear from anyone who is related, I can't believe this "nosiness" gene hasn't spread further!
