MI look up request E(D)KINS - Great Amwell
« on: Saturday 23 December 06 12:54 GMT (UK) »
I wonder if you would be able to do a fiche check for MIs in the parish of Great Amwell regarding the EKINS family.
The family were originally from Stanstead Abbots so it may be they went back to be buried there. However in the 1861 3 siblings Maria, Louisa and Edward Ekins were at the National School in Great Amwell where they were all schoolteachers. They were born 1834, 1837, and 1843 respectively. I don't know if the ladies married or not.
Many thanks for any help you can give,
Vivien.

Hi Vivien,

I searched the Great Amwell burial records for the period 1861-1881 with just one result - 16Feb1862 Emma Ekins age 53 of Amwell End.

There were three Ekins marriages during this period viz
1. 08Apr1861 Elizabeth Maria Ekins d/o William a Tailor and Clement Chappel a Cheesemonger s/o Thomas a farmer.
Witness Louisa Ekins.
2. 19July1862 Martin White Ekins, a Mason s/o James a Carpenter.  and Harriet Everard d/o James a carpenter.
3. 21Mar1868 Eliza Ekins  d/o Thomas a carpenter and Thomas Garden s/o Thomas a labourer.
Witness Martin White Ekins.

Hope this will be of some help to you.

Regards   ...   Peter

Hi Vivien,

My previous message - Harriet Everard was the daughter of George, a miller.

Ooooops!!  A senior moment.

Hi Vivien,

Peter has done better than me - as on the fische for the MI in Great Amwell there are no Ekins - or any names similar - sorry.

I presume the one Peter found would actually be buried in Ware - which Amwell End became part of - I think - that's right isn't it Peter?

Cheers

Keith

Hi Peter (& Keith for follow up)

Many, many thanks for the time you have taken to look up this family, and for the resulting information.
This is the same family. The Elizabeth Maria marriage is the 1833 Maria I mentioned as one of the trio of local schoolteachers.
I am just working on how Emma fits in, the only one recorded in the burials of the parish of Amwell, and as Keith says actually buried in Ware.
Am continuing with looking into this line of the family, so this has been of great help.
I found out that the school where they taught stood in the grounds of the present churchyard. It was a low building made of wood and thatch, and was destroyed in 1874 by fire.
Thanks again,
Vivien.
