Daniel Watson
« on: Thursday 02 August 07 01:29 BST (UK) »

Looking for long lost Mary Walton born Dec. 1816 in Wymondham and married to Daniel Watson of Ashwell, Rutland.  I can only find Daniel in the 1881 census in Ashwell and am assuming that Mary died previous to this.  I am trying to find out if they spent their married life there as they were married in Wymondham in 1845 and not found since.  I also wonder if they had children.
Anyone out there who might have a clue or two for me, thanks.

Thanks for the info.  I am especially interested as to whom Jane and Daniel Walton belong as Mary had only one brother who lived to adulthood - William - who is my gtgtgrandfather.  I am curious why Jane and Daniel do not show up on other records.  I will have to pursue this line.  As for the inconsistencies like the age of Daniel Watson in 1881 and the fact that in 1861 they have him as unmarried,  I will have to chalk it up to human error as all other info points to the rest being who I am tracking.  Thanks for the new info.
I'm on the new trail.

Thanks, that makes sense.  I had forgotten that Page had children.  In some of my info I have Page's wife as Sarah, so will have to recheck my sources. Once again,  you've helped me straighten things out.  Thanks.

Thanks,  there seems to be some discrepancies in Mary's age, but I will try to iron that out.  Perhaps a miscopying of IGI etc.  I am not able to trace the parents of some of these.  Both the Waltons and the Watsons did not have their children christened in the IGI church records which makes those people difficult to track.  Thank goodness for census records.  Thanks again.

The Daniel Watson of Ashwell Rutland you are asking about seems to belong to my family. According to a full family history of the Watsons of Ashwell compiled by a cousin in Canada, Daniel was born 2/3/1816, and is the 2nd son (4th child) of my ancestor John Watson. I am descended from his younger brother John. There is a photo of Daniel with his brother in the FH document (entitled Grandfather Watson seated. His brother Dan standing. Taken before they went to the Bank of England to get their 'Fortin'). Don't know what this means. Nothing much is known about him otherwise. The details you have given can be passed to the cousin in Canada to add to previous knowledge.

I would be happy to share any information I have with your cousin.(  I also live in Canada).  As to the photo, I am guessing that the writing on the photo means they are going to the bank to get their 'fortune'.
If you are wondering the connection to the Watsons,  I am the second gtgrandneice of Daniel's wife, Mary Walton. I am very willing to share what I've managed to compile and would like to know if Daniel and Mary had any more children, other than George.
If you can put me in touch with your cousin, or have him contact me at mahoney@klondiker.com , we could exchange info.
Thanks for the reply.

Re the Fortin. Yes we wondered if it meant fortune, although I can't understand how two farm labours (although the Watsons are inclined  to be a bit above themselves)from Ashwell in rural Rutland would have occasion to visit the Bank of England to get money. No fortune was ever passed down to us! The Watsons were 'chapel' by the way, although buried in Ashwell Churchyard. The Daniel Watson who died at 7 months old, mentioned by Mike, was I think, my Grandfathers brother, after whom, my Grandfather also Daniel Watson was named. Daniel was a popular Watson name. I will contact my Canadian cousin William McCurdy, to OK you contacting him. He has the original of the photo I believe. Our ancestor John Watson moved to Ashwell in 1803 from Caythorpe in Lincolnshire and had 12 children of which your Daniel & my ancestor John were two. Our FH details re your Daniel & family are almost non-existant.
