A sister (half-sister?) of my grandmother was married to Herbert Morris. Her name was Minnie Rootham. Another sister, Sarah Carter was married to Thomas Morris. I would like to share information with you. Sincerely, Pat

Hi. I don't know much about Thomas Morris other than he married Sarah Carter (another sister of my grandmother) who was born abt 1880 In Holme, Huntingdonshire. They were married abt. 1900. They were living with her parents, John & Elizabeth Carter, in the 1901 census. In this census his birth place is listed as Lincs Parish NK, but in the 1891 census his birthplace is given as Spalding Lincinshire. Both Herbert Morris & Minnie Rootham are in the same household.
Supposedly they had 7 children, but I only know of one - Florence E. born abt 1900 at Ramsey Hunts.
I hope this is of some help to you. Pat

Hi Pat.
Had another look at my records, and, of course, Thomas was the brother of Herbert Emery MORRIS. They married in 1900, had a daughter Florence E MORRIS, and I've found them on the 1901 Census.
So once again, many thanks

Hi. I have a copy of the obit. of Elizabeth (Rootham) Carter the mother of Minnie (Rootham) Morris & Sarah (Carter) Morris. It lists Mrs. T. Morris as a daughter & Mr. T. Morris as a son-in-law. Mrs. H. Morris (daughter) was unable to attend through ill-health. There is also a Mr. W. Morris & Bert.
I still haven't figured out if, & how many children Elizabeth had before marriage. John Carter also had some children with his first wife, but 2 or 3 of their children seem to have had the name Rootham which changed to Carter along the way. Only Amos Rootham her son kept his name.
I'm going to attach the obit because you may be interested in other names listed in it. If it doesn't work, please let me know, & I will try again. (I'm using an iMac so it does not always interface with a pc.)
Pat

Hi. The obit is on its way. It's a very old copy as you can tell. The Alfred Gray family from the US listed towards the bottom of the obit were my grandparents - Alice Ann Carter. Minnie was her sister, but I not sure if she was a Rootham or a Carter. The year of her birth was 1873, & the marriage of Elizabeth Rootham to John Carter was 1877. She shows up in both 1881 & 1891 census with the name Carter, but on the FreeBMD marriages she is a Rootham. I'm pretty sure I'm not mixing up two different women. I haven't finished getting to the bottom of the mystery.
Pat

Hi Mobo
Two Church sisters, Rhoda b c1829 and Mercy b c1837, daughters of Richard Church and Hannah Manning of Spaldwick, married two of my gt-grandfather's brothers, Joseph and Isaac Fairey of Easton. They probably met at Spaldwick Baptist Church, where the girls' grandfather, John Manning, was minister.
My gt-grandfather Amos Fairey married an Annie Church b 1839, who is not related to that family as far as I can tell. She was born in Gt Paxton, daughter of William Church and Mary Ambridge. Amos and Annie settled in Ellington.
Regards,
Gillg
Just noticed the date on your original posting (1905)!

Those names Rhoda and Mercy ring a bell. I shall now do some digging! Thank you. I will come back to you when I find something. Maureenk
On 25th July 1833 Richard Church bought the house now known as Three Ways for £150 from Enoch Skempton . He had leased it for the previous year. On 26th July 1833 Richard borrowed £130 from james Bland the Baker and Thomas Ashby the Blacksmith. On 14th June 1836 Richard sold the house to Mark Davis for £220. Mark Davis was my g g grandfather. The house remained in our family until around 1976. My sister's house is built in the old paddock of the house. Recently the house sold for nearly a million! This may be of interest...... it is information my mother copied from the deeds. M

Hi MaureenK
Richard Church was born c 1799 in Godmanchester and was a tailor. He married Hannah Manning in Spaldwick in 1820. His other children were John, Rebecca, Ellen, Elizabeth, Susannah, Frederick and William. Is the house Three Ways in Easton or Spaldwick? Can you tell me where in the village Three Ways was located (I have a good idea of the village layout). In 1851 Richard and family were living next door to the Crown Inn in Easton.
There is another Richard Church about at the same time, from memory living in Huntingdon.
Incidentally, I think a son of John Church, Thomas, married one of Mobo's Morrises - Rebecca - in 1868. She has his birthplace as Barham, which is a mile or two from Spaldwick.
Regards,
Gillg

Three Ways is not the original name for the house.........Fairview at one point. It is on the Green. Put your back to the front door and opposite to you is the old Blacksmiths shop and to the left of it the road going round to the Thrapston road.On the right of the Blacksmith's house is a driveway and then The George public house and then The Manor. My Grandmother Annie Church (married Davis) was a tailoress in a family of Tailors. She lived at The Crown in Easton!!!!Her married home was Three Ways. What a coincidence! John Church Annies grandfather was a Tailor.
