NEWEY - Are Thomas and Martha bro and sis?!

[bitzar]

I've just realised in some of my very old notes that I've got Richard Langham marrying Hannah Newey at Rothley 1814.  Richard I think is the brother of Martha Newey's husband.  Makes sense that brother's marry sister's.... BUT Hannah Newey states on various census' various birthplaces... Derby, Warickshire and I think born in county for Leicestershire 1841.  Maybe she is a cousin, not a sister.  Is there any mention of Hannah Newey and Richard Langham anywhere.  I have them on census.

tia, bitzar.

What does 'Michaelmas' refer to?!

Oic

Any mention of the child's name?!

Did you notice my reply #9.

No mention of the child's name.  The original record is at Leicestershire Records office, although I'm not sure how much more information, if any, it would add.

I haven't had a chance to look for Hannah & Richard yet - I've been on the phone for almost 2 hours !   Will see what I can find this afternoon.

and I take it that phone call is not for fun!

Can't find anything more of much help I'm afraid, although others will have CD's I don't.

I wonder if Martha's illegitimate child died, as there's a burial in Cossington 2 Jan 1820 for a Charles Newey (no age given).

Great information Bunnygirl 

[bitzar]

Jomot and bunnygirl, thanks so much.

I am confident I have placed John Langham as bro of Richard, but I cant place Saml.  Saml is probs a bro too as there was a bro Saml who died as an infant.  Probs another bro named in his place but I cant see a baptism on Anc* or IG*

Interesting that Martha was a witness for Hannah, if she's the same Martha that is.  IF she is a sister then possible Hannah is older and was born in Derby or Warwickshire as she stated on census, and then the family moved to Leics.  Lots and if and maybe's though.

Are baptism / burials / marriages for Cossington, Rothley, and Thurlaston available online or disk, etc.  Do you think anyone on here will have access?!  Do you think it's worth posting a thread if anyone can do a whole surname name surname search for NEWEY at these locales?!

Thanks again for all your efforts.
