Broomfield - Roberts/Robertson - Hogarth
« on: Wednesday 19 September 07 18:47 BST (UK) »
Hoping someone can help me or point me in the right direction.
Thomas Broomfield m. Helen Roberts/Robertson at Chirnside in 1776.
1. I can't find the births of :
Thomas Broomfield c1744, possibly Chirnside area;
Helen Roberts/Robertson c1744 [age was given as 77 on M.I. Chirnside,1821.]
[Their children were Jean, Grace and John Broomfield.]
From the Chirnside M.I.  I know that Helen's parents were David Roberts/Robertson and Jean Hogarth who were married at Mordington, Berwick in 1739. At his death David was late gardener at Spenc Mains.
I will be very pleased with any help or information.

Hi,

Not of much help, but there were 2 families of Broomfields in the 1851 census at Chirnside.

William age 41 Dry Stone Dyke Builder born Eccles.

David age 47 Mason, Chelsea pensioner  born Chirnside.

Can't find a Spence Mains on any recent map and my wife can't place it either.
As you say according to the MI at Chirnside you are going back to 1699 at the latest, probably one of those place vanished in history, I take it that you got the MI's off the pre 1855 book.

Thank you again for replying.
I will keep those two families in my notes just in case they fit in anywhere.
As you say there doesn't seem to be any Spence Mains in Chirnside area and the only one I can find about that time would be near Melrose. Perhaps I will find out more if I fit in a visit to Edinburgh. The list is growing ever longer now that I have traced so far back.
Yes, I do have the M.I.'s for Berwickshire, the Eastern Counties which has been so good for tracing many of our ancestors.
Best wishes,
Rae
