Title: Charles Hayter & Ann Sheridan Dick married 1809
Post by: josey on Saturday 03 January 15 11:46 GMT (UK)
Thanks to all the brilliant work & help from you rootschat 'guys' I am really on the track of my Hayters.

I contacted the owner of a tree on ancestry found by Monica & she is a 5th cousin & descended directly from the John Hayter of the carte de visite so is a wonderful New Year find.

Charles Hayter 1787 - 1839 blacksmith my 4 x g grandfather married an Ann. Their children were born 1810 - 1818 named Ann 1810, Amelia 1812, Charles 1813, Richard 1817 & Eleanor 1818 all baptised Marylebone. I had thought Ann was possibly Ann Dunevan - the marriage showing on Boyd's Index for 1810 at St George's Hanover Square. However not only [as pointed out by Regorian] was this church for 'the great and the good' but more convincingly, in a copy of a detached front page possessed by aforesaid new cousin [from a family bible [now lost] it states 'Charles Hayter married Ann Sheridan Dick in 1809'. The main Hayter family lived in Windlesham but Charles & his brother John moved to London; the marriage could have been in either place or in Ann's parish if different.

So my question is - who was Ann Sheridan Dick? Nothing showing on familysearch with that full name or an ancestry 'search all records' or on SP; many of the baptisms of 'Ann Dick' there are in Scotland & the name construction is a possible Scottish one. And where was the marriage?

Any help gratefully received as usual  :)

Since posting this a few years ago I have found these records:
Name:   Ann Dick
Gender:   Female
Christening Date:   25 Oct 1785
Christening Place:   ST MARY WHITECHAPEL,STEPNEY,LONDON,ENGLAND
Father's Name:   William Dick [no occupation, address High Street]
Mother's Name: Hannah
Indexing Project (Batch) Number: C02557-4 GS Film number: 94694

Poss parents marriage:
Name:   William Dick
Spouse:   Hannah Tyler
Record Type:   Banns
Event Date:   23 Aug 1784
Parish:   St Leonard, Shoreditch
Borough:   Hackney
Register Type:   Parish Register

An ancestry tree has this Ann Dick marrying [as Ann Hayden according to the banns] John Philip Frederick in 1809. A 1854 settlement gives her maiden name as Dick & parents as William & Hannah; so looks like I can disregard this Ann.

Has anyone any other suggestions, please?

Bringing to the top after several years!!

 :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ I think I took the transcription I was given [name = Ann Sheridan Dick] at face value without taking an in depth look myself. I NOW think that the name of Charles Hayter's bride from the page of the family bible [I was only sent a poor copy] is Ann Duneven and that it actually says Charles Hayter married Ann Duneven Decr 1809. It's the fifth entry down. There is a marriage of Charles Hayter to Ann Duneven in St George's Hanover Square in Jan 1810.

What do you clever rootschatters think? Can anyone enhance the image please? I am considering taking a mDNA test in the next few months, Charles' wife is a direct female ancestor.

I have just also posted the page image on the deciphering board

Scan is not really large enough to work out all of it plus the shading over the relevant word doesn't help either.

Do believe though that the last word is not Dick but Decr. Some of the longer month names were shortened this way.

This has also come up in the post on the deciphering board as well.

Thanks for confirming Decr.

Yes, I did say I'd done that & posted the link in my third & recent post.

Sadly the image of the photocopy is all I've ever received. I've contacted the lady who sent me that image [last contacted in 2014] to see if a better scan can be obtained but no reply as yet.
