Hi Tabitha,
My husband's Great grandmother was Mary Ann Lillycrap, born in Staplegrove ,which is a village close to Ruishton.
She had four siblings:
Charlotte,b. 1845, Joseph b. 1849, Emma Jane b. 1853 and Alice b. 1859.
Their parents were Charles and Mary Ann Lillycrap.Charles was a Smith and at one time ran the Staplegrove Inn. Charles was born in Bristol c. 1821.
I found some Lillycraps on the Ruishton and Staplegrove 1841 census which you may be interested in:
RUISHTON 1841
WILLIAM LILLYCRAP , 45 yrs., Blacksmith , born Ruishton
SARAH LILLYCRAP, 30 yrs., , born Ruishton

WILLIAM LILLYCRAP, 10 yrs., , born Ruishton.
MATILDA LILLYCRAP, 9 yrs., , born Ruishton.
THOMAS LILLYCRAP, 7yrs., , born Ruishton.
MARY LILLYCRAP, 6 yrs., , born Ruishton.
ISABELLA BERRY , 4yrs.,
MARY , 65yrs.

Hi Maureen,
Thank you for your reply to my surname interests, wow another Lillycrap!
On the census info you kindly attached I can tell you that James 25 yrs, smith in Staplegrove is my husband's 3xG Grandfather!
The Elizabeth, 65 yrs, I believe is James' mother (she was Elizabeth Tar and married Thomas Lillycrap in 1800).
James married Mary Wood and had two children that I am aware of James born 1845 in Ruishton, he emigrated with his family to New South Wales. The other is Frederick born 1849 in Ruishton (hubby's 2xG Grandfather) who married Matilda Jane Gready in 1871.
I'll send you a personal message (PM) with my email address and if you'd like to chat more about the Lillycraps I'd love to hear from you

Hi!
I just came across your interest in the name of Lillycrap and your reference to Elizabeth Tar. I have recently discovered this as a ancestor and have been tying to track her and the Lillycrap family. At this instant it appears that William, Thomas, and Israel all came up from Devon and settled and married around Taunton 1790-1795 and then spread out with a lot of children. Elizabeth has me baffled - for the moment.
Like you, I would like to talk about it - preferably off the list.
Bob

Hi Bob,
A big welcome to RootsChat.
Lovely you have found a connection. I am afraid we do not allow email addresses to be posted. We have a secure PM (Personal Message) system we use to relay personal data, but as a new member you will need to make a couple more posts before our secure PM system opens up to you.
