Hi,

The Certificate of Freedom 1823 belongs to John EDLIN baptised 14 November 1784 at Great Gonerby, Lincolnshire son of Barthomolmew EDLIN and Elizabeth DOUBLEDAY.  He was sentenced to seven years transportation at Kesteven Quarter Sessions (Summer 1816) for stealing a pig from William DORR of Barrowby.

The recent availability off the London Gazette on-line from 1772 contains some interesting bankruptcies.

You can follow the process for a number of the Cycle and Tyre Manufacturers including Jehu Edlin, Robert William Edlin (his Birmingham Business), Robert Edlin.

Also Henry Robert Edlin Station Master of Solihull in 1864 who I can't trace.

Does anyone know anything about Edward Holberton Edlin, Surgeon of Plymouth.  He appears to have been assistant surgeon to the 15th Lincolnshire Rifle voluteers in 1867 before he went to Plymouth.  There is also information about what appears to be his wife Jane's will and his bankruptcy in 1892.

Hi,

I think I know of his son who was Edward Frederick Hoberton EDLIN.  He was born at Bourne, Lincolnshire 2 July 1866 and went to Plymouth College and Rugby.  He later went to Christ's College Cambridge and became a solicitor in 1890.  In 1893 went to Singapore to join the firm of Drew and Napier as an assistant becoming a partner in 1903.  He served on the Straits Settlement Opium Committee 1907-08.  He died in 1913. 

This potted history comes from Alumni Cantabrigiensis Part II vol II page 385

My name is Michael Peter Edlin. My father is Edward Cecil Elliot Edlin. My grandfather is Edward Frederic Holberton Edlin and great grandfather is Edward Colsil Edlin.  I believe that Sir Peter Henry Edlin is the brother of Edward Frederic Edlin.  I'm trying to find out if I have any cousins from this line and where they are generally located.  Would appreciate any help and information.

Hi Kookie,

Welcome to rootschat and our Edlin group.

We have been unable to link this branch of the family into any of our other Edlin lines.  The Coat of Arms used by Sir Peter Edlin is derived from that used in the 15th century by Edlin family in Aldenham Herts and from them by the Edelen branch in the USA.  I contacted the College of Arms some time ago to obtain a copy of the pedigree that supported that grant but they required an extortionate fee.

The indication is that they were part of the Middlesex family rather than the Leics branch.  If you PM me with your email address (click the green scroll to the left of this reply) I can send you more details of this group.

I am confused as to who was the father of Edward Frederick Holberton Edlin.

We previously thought that it was Edward Holberton Edlin born in India in 1840.  This date would be consistent with the latter being the brother of Sir Peter and thus Edward Frederick being Edward Colshill's grandson.

The birth in India however worries me because Edward Colshill and his father Edward seem to have run their New Bond Street toy and library business continuously over the period.

I'm a newcomer here, having found the site while googling on Edlins, being one myself and descended somehow from the Leicester branch.

Have found wonderful write up and pics of "the brothers Edward and Thomas Edlin, aged respectively 93 and 86 years" in the Methodist Recorder of October 30th 1902 (page 11). According to the text, Edward was born in Croxton Kerrial on Feb 3rd 1809, and worked on the Duke of Rutland's estate - Belvoir Castle - for 59 years, retiring at 80. He was a prominent Methodist local preacher. No mention of a wife; guess he was a widower, living with "his children, his niece, Mrs Smith, and her husband".

Should have added that Herbert Leeson Edlin was publications officer for the Forestry Commission for many years, hence the large number of popular and specialist forestry books by him. There was another distinguished Edlin from this branch in modern times, a Harold Edlin who was a forensic scientist after the second world war.

Welcome to Rootschat and our Edlin thread.

Edward and Thomas were both widowers.  Edward's wife Susannah Chapman died in April 1885 and Thomas's wife Jane Gray in 1899.

Where do you fit into the family?

If you would like me to send you more details of this branch of the Edlins please send me your email address in a private message (click on the green scroll to the left of this reply)

I've now found out from the information kindly supplied. My Grandfather was William Edlin b 1882, youngest son of Thomas Bunney Edlin. He marrried Frances Spencer and they had 2 children, Margaret (m Gordon Atkinson, 4 sons, still living in Willoughby on the Wolds) and my late Father Derek. Quite surprised to find on reading the Leics Edlins how the names of my siblings seem to have been taken from our forbears. We are (in order of birth) Robert William, John David, Margaret Elizabeth, Rosemary Anne and Timothy Mark.

Returning to the line of Sir Peter Edlin and Edward Holburton Edlin.  See the following site:

http://indiafamily.bl.uk/UI/

Edward Edlin was born 19 Dec 1814 son of Edward Colshill Edlin and Sophia Clifford.  He was bapt 31 Jul 1819 St Georges Hanover Square.  He married Mary Jane ___ and was a surgeon in the Bengal Medical Service.  He died 6 Apr 1850.

Sir Peter Edlin was thus the uncle of Edward Holburton Edlin

...
Have been checking about the name Ebenezer. It is a Hebrew name and mentioned 3 times in the Bible as well as being made famous by Charles Dickens, Ebenezer Scrooge. It relates to a stone raised by the prophet Samuel in memory of the defeat of the Philistines, Samuel 7:11-12. Very often it is given a meaning of "stone of help" or a "foundation of stone". There is an Ebenezer society in Germany and numerous chapels so named worldwide. There is also a hymn, "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing" which contains the lines "here I raise mine Ebenezer, hither by thy help...".

If I may continue this digression briefly, there is also the wonderful Welsh hymn tune Ebenzer with the unique and haunting triplet rhythm in a minor key. It used to be used for a wonderful hymn beginning "Who is this with garments gory". See http://www.cyberhymnal.org/htm/w/i/t/witwgory.htm
