Hi Charby

Are you doing a One Name Study on the Whitehead family or are you just after information on Charlotte Maria?  :)

If the latter is the case I will gladly move the post for you to a more relevant board which may help to generate a response for you.   Please let me have any information on possible locations (County etc.) so I can place it in the right board.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes

Ticker

Charby,

Whiteheads are generally distributed throughout England in Lancashire, Warwickshire and London and so far I have found no connection between the families in those areas.  MY family are from Warwickshire (Coventry and North Warwickshire) and I have the line back to 1600's in Middleton, Warwickshire.  Do get in touch please if yours are Warwickshire too.

Hi Charby,

Between 1848-64, when Griffith's Valuation took place in Ireland, there were families with the Whitehead surname in Counties Cork, Down, Dublin, Kilkenny, Laois, Louth, Offaly and Tipperary.

My maiden name is Whitehead.  Mine come from London,  Lambeth st Marylebone area. I think the top one I have may be from Lancashire. Have a lot of engineers in the family.  Would love to know if other Whiteheads were engineers too Or if anyone has any London Whiteheads in their tree.
