Sussex Lookup Requests / Elizabeth Clark, wife of Philip Buried Rye St Mary 1823. Philip in America
« on: Tuesday 07 April 20 21:20 BST (UK)  »
Hello Rootschatters,   You have helped so much in the past with probates.  It just occurred to that Elizabeth Clark, nee Gravett might have left a will.  Her Mother Mary Gravett left her real property to Elizabeth when Mary died in 1820.  Elizabeth is married to Philip but he has been in America since 1819.  They have 5 minor children,  who leave for America in 1825.  Elizabeth's father in law is alive to administer any property and was an executor of Mary Gravett will 
      Any help suggestions etc more than Welcome   LizR

Pembrokeshire Lookup Requests / Places of Wales
« on: Thursday 10 August 17 20:29 BST (UK)  »
Hello  I am looking for the Perkins of Porthlisky Farm on the tithe maps with no luck.  George is there in the 1841 census but doesn't show up in the index.  The farm doesnt seem to be in the index either.  I found it by browsing.  It is 2 bays to the west from the point of St Davids.  What am I doing wrong.?  Thanks for any help or suggestions.   William and Jane James had the lower farm around 1800.  LizR

Sussex Lookup Requests / Probate Weight family Rye.
« on: Saturday 05 August 17 00:56 BST (UK)  »
Hello Rootschatters    I have a parish record listing Henry Weight's burial taking place 23 Nov 1760 and his wife Grace in 1780.   Cannot find a will for either of them.
      The ESRO has a property history on Longer street.  Which
 makes a reference to the
Henry Weight estate in 1782 and then traces ownership or leases for quite a time period.  Mentions henry's grandson Henry Clark building warehouse.  Would love to find this probate file.  The Archdeanry of Lewes microfilm appears to have been withdrawn on Family Search hopefully to be replace with digital images.  thank you for any info, suggestions.  LizR

Sussex Lookup Requests / Grace Ashley married Henery Wait 1728 Rye.
« on: Monday 26 June 17 21:05 BST (UK)  »
Hello Rootschatters,  I took advantage of FindMyPast free access to work  an unexplored line and hit a brick wall.   I am looking for Grace Ashley's baptism and only had 16 hits in parish records for Rye. Broadened out to Sussex and only got 44.
      The Waits were Non-conformist and received an exemption from baptism to attend Saunders School in Rye.    Can anyone help me learn anything about the Ashley family?   
       Henry Wait and Grace had Mercy(Married Philip Clark),  Mary(married Abraham Staffell) and Margaret.  All buried Rye Church yard.  I have no death dates for Henry and Grace and only references to his estate in the Rye Corporation Records.
    Thank you very much for reading and any help or suggestions      LizR

Glamorganshire / Brick wall Marriage of Thomas Thomas to Jemima. Swansea area
« on: Tuesday 14 February 17 20:36 GMT (UK)  »
Hello  I have been looking at my tree for brickwalls and this marriage is one of them.   
         I have found 2 possibilities     Thomas Thomas and Jemima Harris    25 Sept 1821
                                                     Both of Llangyfelach
                                                     Thomas Thomas and Jemima Griffith   10 July 1824
                                                      Swamsea St Mary.

Thomas and Jemima are in the 1841 census with Eleanor 15 and Evan 5 living near the River Tawe in Llangyfelach.    Only baptism for Eleanor is in 1823 at Swansea St Mary. Very questionable for spelling and I think it was even for a male. 
       Eleanor marries John Davies at Llangyfelach Parish Church in August of 1844 Father Thomas Thomas, a butcher.
       Thomas and Jemima are living in Morriston in 1851. they have Eleanor's oldest son Thomas Davies staying with them.  Not found in the 1861.  Both born around 1801. 
       Would love to find the marriage and know her maiden name.  Have looked at griffith and Harris wills.  No joy.    Any baptisms. 
       thank you for reading.  Open to any suggestions.        LizR

Glamorganshire / Nant Bran Farm Dyffryn estate between Wenvoe, St. Lythan and St Nicholas
« on: Wednesday 08 February 17 19:31 GMT (UK)  »
Hello   I am hoping someone can provide a photo or really any infomation about Nant Bran Farm.  The Pranch family lived there from about 1730 to 1850.  William Pranch seems to change his name to Branch about this time.  I have wills for 1780, 1812, 1813.   Margaret Pranch married Jenkins Morgan in 1806 and her father Edward Pranch left the will dated 1812.  The Pranch name is mentioned in a short history of St Lythan parish as a "name of distinction" but no details.
   Thank you for your interest reading this post    LizR
