William Butler b.1775

[Phinders]

Hello all
Sorry about my first query regarding John Butler, I was looking at the wrong generation and it was late at night here in Australia ... I have corrected William's and Rebecca's children's now.  Any more information would be most appreciated.

Please can anybody help with finding ancestors of William Butler b.1775, possibly married Rebecca Lant b.1776. I'm don't know where he was born but his children were born in Ramsey, Huntingdonshire.  The children were: Sarah b.1796, George b.1800 d.1853 (my x5 GGF), William b.1801 d.1882,  Mary b.1803, John b.1807 d.1807.  I would also be very interested in more information on Rebecca Lant if she is confirmed as William's wife.  Any information would be most appreciated.

Thanks
Phil Butler

Welcome to Rootschat.

Have you eliminated this one, baptised 1776, Godmanchester, Huntingdon, with parents Jacob and Sarah? Might be worth trying to follow as John's eldest daughter was Sarah.

According to Freereg, it looks as if Rebecca Lant married a William Buttler (Butler?)

Are you sure you're not merging two families here? First child 1796, second 1823, last 1834 is too big a spread for the mother to have been the same one. Have you checked the parish register for the baptisms from which you should get the parents' names. In 1851 there's a Henry age 21 living in Ramsey with his mother Elizabeth 52 and and brother William 30 all born Ramsey.

Where are your details about the children from?

In 1841 living at Forty Foot Bridge, Ramsey, were Elizabeth Butler 40, William 20, George 19, Eloisa 17, John 15, Henry 12, James 4. Is this your family?

Hi, thanks everybody for such quick replies, you're all amazing ...  my humble apologies however, I should have typed William Butler 1775 not John.  I'll have a look through your replies and see what fits. 

Thanks

Hi
Please can anyone confirm the children's names of William Butler 1775 & Rebecca Lant 1776 married Ramsay, Huntingdonshire.  I have; Sarah 1796, George 1801, Mary 1803, John 1807-1807.  I think that Rebecca Butler (Lant) died in 1807 so could have been when she was in childbirth with John.

I would also like to confirm if William Butler (Buttler) 1775 then married Sarah Wright 1790 and they possibly had 15 children.  I believe the first 5 children were:  John 1808, Elizabeth 1810, Susanna 1812, Jane 1814, Henry 1816.  Can anyone find the rest of the names?

Also, I would like to find the parents and siblings of William Butler 1775.  His parents might have been George Butler 1750 & Mary Woodbine in Huntingdonshire

Thanks
Phil Butler
