Over the many years of FH research I have NEVER found another researcher  working on the above...........
Where are you ALL ?????

My direct line
Martha Unwin b 1842 = Charles Taylor
Her parents...Timothy Unwin bc 1818 = Sarah Ann Miller
His parents ...Nathaniel Unwin bc 1781 =Susan

I have details of the families from censuses etc......they were Ag Labs and Gardeners....no link has been found to Unwin Seeds.......but the family said there was a link to Chivers Jams !!!

I do hope that there is someone out there also researching them.

PS from D.. I am decendant of MARY DAY  family- Allen -Jenkins.. and more of course..you may like to find me  as I get lost around sites [sorry]

Hi Jasmine, Welcome to RootsChat :D

I have not got a Unwins seed book but this is a little of history in the about us section http://www.unwins.co.uk/about-us-pgid2.html

Feel I should be ordering some sweet pea seeds now for the summer!

Regards

Sarah ;)

A bit of looking around, just for the record there is also:

1871   
James Unwin
Frances Ann Chivers   
Marriage: 27 June 1871 Histon, Cambridge, England
 :)   

I am not researching this family line but my Grandmother worked at Chivers for a while.

 Hi,
I stumbled across your message re Unwin's of Cambridgeshire.
My Grandfather, Alfred Unwin was born in Duxford, the home of "our" Unwins for several generations,  in 1876 and later moved to York, where he met my Grandmother, Blanche Bradley.
He was a Boer War Veteran and registered in the Census 1903  as Groom and Horse breaker.
They had 7 children, four in England, Alfred, Alice, Ivy and Doris and three, May, Leonard and Stanley (my father),  after emmigrating to Australia in 1912, where they settled and lived their life in Rockhampton, Queensland.
Attached is an old family photo taken circa 1952.
My cousin's wife has a lot of material and I have given her all my findings back several centuries whene we were Onions.

Tracing William (founder of seed firm) back through censuses it looks as if his parents were james and Frances

Berks / Oxon: Eltham, Annetts, Wiltshire (surname not county), Hawkins, Pembroke, Partridge
Dorset / Hants: Derham, Stride, Purkiss, Sibley
Yorkshire: Pottage, Carr, Blackburn, Depledge
Sussex: Goodyer, Christopher, Trevatt

Going back to 1851 when James was with his parents, they were Nathaniel and Susan and he had a brother Alfred b abt 1847, and in 1841 there is a William b abt 1838 in the household (presumed to be another brother). Haven't located  this William later though, so may have died young.

Nathanial the father was born abt 1811 in Huntingdon, age doesn't fit with OP's Nathanial, but right age to be her Timothy's brother and son of her Nathanial

The father of Frances Ann Chivers was Philip. He could be the son of John and brother of Stephen who started the fruit and jam manufacturing
