Cadmans in Isleham
« on: Sunday 11 December 05 12:58 GMT (UK) »
I have traced my father's ancestry back to Isleham in Cambs but have reached a brick wall which I hope someone might be able to help with.

I have a direct ancestor named John Cadman - b Isleham about 1798 (date from various census records so not set in stone) who married Ruth Johnson - b Isleham in 1797 - on 5 Oct 1818 just in time for their daughter Susan's birth in November 1818! Later children were James x 2, Sarah and John. It seems possible that both the first-born James and John died in infancy.

Ruth died in 1829 and in 1830 John Cadman married Ann Thorpe. Their children were John, Mary and George.

I also have another John Cadman, birth date unknown but perhaps between 1760-1770. According to the IGI he married Susanna Pareman on 17 Oct 1789 in Isleham. Their IGI-listed children (plus their christening dates) were Mary 1790, Susanna 1792, Susan 1795, Elizabeth 1802, Sarah 1802 and James 1804.

I believe this second John Cadman might be the father of John Cadman 1798. The family names are all quite common ones, but there is a strong correlation between them, particularly the Susans and Susannas.  There is also a very suitable gap in the production of children between Susan in 1795 and Elizabeth in 1802 where John 1798 would fit very nicely!

Anyone have any ideas or information that might help me prove/disprove  the link?

I also have Isleham Cadman's in another line deriving from my father - yet another John Cadman - b about 1780, son of Thomas Cadman and Honor. He married Elizabeth and produced a daughter Martha Cadman in 1799.  This John Cadman's great-granddaughter Martha Leonard married John Cadman King who was the grandson of John Cadman 1798.
