Hi Veronica
In my family tree I have a Charles Mawhood, b 1660 at Darfield, Yorkshire (IGI batch P017531). He was a captain in the East India Company - one day I may have time to search their records for him. He died in 1736 (Fam. Min. Gent., Harleian Society vol 38), and in his will of 1734 he made a bequest to his nephew 'Samuel Mawhood late of Hull and now of Wapping the sum of one hundred pounds'. Samuel had married one Mary Prockter of Hull in 1721 (Yorkshire Archaeological Journal vol XIV, also in Boyd's Marriage Index); they had three sons, all of whom went to sea and were never heard of more, apparently. However, this ain't quite so; son no. 1, Charles - no birth date, but estimated c1722 - was captured by 'Angria the pirate'. In 'The Honourable Company' by John Keay, three major captures by the Maratha navy commanded by Tulaji Angrey are mentioned in this period: the Derby, in 1735, the Princess Augusta in 1742, and the Restoration in 1749. Other smaller vessels were captured, but I think it most likely that Charles was on one of these. The Angrian fleet was crushed by the Bombay Marine with the help of the Navy in 1755-56. Son no. 2, Samuel, christened in 1724 at Hull (IGI batch C107483), is quite probably the ship's boy listed as having paid his wages of £4 16s 0d to his captain, George Spurrell, in 1735 (Appendix, "The Master's Measure:" Remunerative Patterns for Hudson's Bay Company Captains, 1726-1736, Michael J. Broyles, The Northern Mariner/Le Marin du nord, VIII, No. 3 July 1998), 1-8); this was normal practice for an apprentice seaman at that time. He may very likely be the Samuel who married Susan Weatherhead in 1744 at Barking. Samuel was 'lost at sea' - I have no further information about him. In 1746 and 1747 during the war against France, Hudson's Bay Company ships carried a 'letter of marque', a privateering commission permitting them to capture enemy shipping. This is significant because son no. 3, Richard, christened in 1726 at Hull (IGI batch C107483) was the plaintiff in the trial of Sarah Kennigem at the Old Bailey in 1748 (www.oldbaileyonline.org ref t17481012-20). In the account of the trial he is named as a mariner of the parish of St Paul, Shadwell, son of Samuel Mawhood. Sarah Kennigem was accused of stealing some money belonging to him from a chest in the house where he lodged (with his father). She was found guilty and condemned to death. Justice was harsh in those days. The point is though that the money was prize money, ie his share of the proceeds from the sale of a captured enemy ship. According to Fam. Min. Gent. Richard drowned off Newfoundland - does this perhaps suggest that he followed his brother into the service of the Hudson's Bay Company?
Another reference I forgot to add:
National Archives HCA 26/4/52 - Records of the High Court of Admiralty: Prize Court: Registers of Declarations for Letters of Marque; against France
27 April 1744 - Samuel Mawhood named as boatswain of the Hudson's Bay Company ship Prince Rupert, commanded by George Spurrell

Hi Pem
I have some (unchecked) info regarding a William Mawhood b 1777 who changed his name to Maywood. William's grandfather was a Samuel Mawhood who m Susan Weatherhead at Barking in 1744. Circumstantial evidence gives me a Samuel Mawhood as a 'leaf' on my family tree who may be the same. Maybe you have more on this.
Hello Mawhoodmz, this Mawhood/Maywood family tree seems to be growing at a rate of knots. I have:
William brn 1777 died 1827. Burial 7th October Barkingside.
His parents were Charles Mawhood brn 1750 and Mary Howard brn 1750 they married 1.2.1771 in Barking after the birth of their first child Mary.
William's siblings Mary brn 1770, Susannah brn 1771 died 1791 in Barkingside, then WILLIAM brn 1777, Charles brn 1780, Samuel brn 1784, Sarah brn 1786 and finally Anne brn 1789 died aged 2.
Initially change of name could just have been down to a spelling mistake, just a thought.
WILLIAM Mawhood m 6.5. 1797 Martha Faulkner (brn 1766 died - 1811 in Barkingside.) Martha was the daughter of Henry Faulkner and Sarah Hammond.
Children of William and Martha:
Martha brn 1798, Mary brn 1799, Charles 1801, HENRY brn 24th April 1802 (my 3x great grandfather) William brn 1803, Samuel brn 29 November 1804 baptized Barkingside, died 3rd April 1836 in Barkingside, he married an Anne, last sibling was another Charles brn 1808? HENRY, went on to marry Hannah Fountain they were my Grandmothers great grandparents. It becomes confusing because they all seem to use the same names, I've so many Henrys in my lot I am beginning to lose the plot! Good luck hope this is some help.

........ Perhaps there is something you could help me with my Great Grandmother who was married to Henry Maywood, was originally an Annie Pipe(or Piper) she was a midwife in the Newbury Park area and died in 1919. I have no real information on her.
Hi Pem, interested in your Annie Pipe. Do you have any further details for her - I know who her grandparents were, but not her parents (I believe that her mother may have been unmarried)

Hallo Pem and Veronica
Very good photographs - when do they date from?
The father of Charles b 1850 was one Samuel Mawhood who married Susan Weatherhead at Barking - at least, that's what I understood we were all agreed on. What I was suggesting was that this same Samuel is an individual in my tree (code W105 in the attached diagram, towards the bottom right). The evidence for this suggestion is circumstantial but not insubstantial - further research might confirm it (or not).
If so, this line can be traced further back.

Hi Michael Annie Pipe brn October 1860 (that's the date I have, although some documentation I was sent indicated 1858) was married to my G.Grandfather Henry Maywood on 20.11.1881 in Parish Church Great Ilford Essex. Daughter of Henry Pipe she was born in Ilford and died in 1919 in Newbury Park, Ilford Essex. They had seven children, my grandmother Emily being one of them. Annie was well known in the area as a midwife, although I can find little information on this, but know this to be true as she delivered my cousin's father. She was documented as being a dressmaker in 1901 aged 41. As far as I know she spent her life in Newbury Park, Ilford Essex. I should really like to know more about Annie as my grandmother always spoke of her as a wonderful woman. I do have a photograph of her but do not have a scanner to get image onto pc. Something I must find out how to do!! Hope this is of help.
Hello again,
You say her father was named as Henry. Was this from her marriage certificate. I can't find any Henry Pipe in her family line. unless I have made a mistake.

Hello Michael, sorry I don't know as this information was sent to me via a distant relative so not sure where they got the name of Henry from. Her husband was Henry
Maywood. I was told that her first child Alice was a half sister to the rest of the Maywood children. Apparently Annie was in service, and become pregnant supposedly 'a lord of the manor's child,' but whether this is true, who knows. I know that she died in 1919 because my mother was born in November 1919 and my grandmother was very upset that Annie had died just a few months earlier. Hope we can find out more about her. I will keep searching this end.

Michael
Thanks that would be great.
Pem - received marriage cert and confirms that Annie Pipe says her father was Henry Pipe. However I reckon she was not giving the facts. She is definitely the grand daughter of George Pipe & Ruth (nee Ancona), and as far as I can see they didn't have a son Henry. I will have a look at the birth cert and get back to you.
Michael

Hi Pem, I am fairly sure that I know exactly who Annie Maywood was. In the early eighties, I spent many hours talking to an elderly relative, Edie Neil (nee Warren). Annie Maywood was her aunt. Annie was the sister of Edie's father, George Warren and my greatgrandfather, Alfred Warren. Their parents were Henry and Mary Warren whose maiden name was Pipe and Mary's parents were George and Ruth Pipe. Mary was also a midwife. In the 1871 Annie's age was given as 11 and in the 1881 cesuses she was 20. I know that one should be cautious about info from elderly relatives but Edie was incredibly accurate in everything which she told me. She couldn't remember Annie's husband's first name as she had always known him by his nickname, 'Bogie.' (sorry about that). Edie also told me about the children of Annie and Bogie Maywood so if what she told me fits with what you know of them, it will help to confirm that Annie was a Warren? Their children were 1. Jim who was a captain in the army and was killed in the war. 2.Lucy who was Edie's godmother. 3. Annie 4. Ester. 5. a son who married someone called Sue and he lived until almost 100. 6. a daughter who lived at Billericay. 7 . Emily who was always known as PEM! I believe that Pem lived in the Barkingside area as I can remember Edie talking of visiting her. Was Pem your grandmother? If so then I think we may be third cousins?

Hi Jenny, thank you so much for all the information, yes it looks as if you have found a cousin. My grandmother was Pem and yes I think I remember an Edie, did she live in Netley Road? I was sent some information from a Michael Pipe who was investigating all the people called Pipe, and he gave me the name of Annie's mother and grandparents so I do know you are on the right track. I heard the name of Warren when I was younger. Annie's husband was Henry Maywood, they had seven children, Alice was the eldest, then James (the soldier who was killed in France in first world war), Lucy, William, Esther, Emily(Pem) and Annie. The last child Annie's grandchildren have been in touch with me they,are think, are also third cousins. If you would like to contact through email please let me know. Kind regards Pem
