Frank Yeoman ELLERY NZ Family

[Lucy2]

Part quote from reply # 68....

"I would say that the forename is meant to be Jenny  ... though it looks rather like "Janny".    First letter is definitely a " J "."

I think "Fanny" should be considered as a possibility.


Minniehaha.

Why 

[bernice52]

In answer to the questionable trees/ websites of Martha Maria Vercoe there are 2 but people have put them as 1;  1 born 1833 to Philip & Caroline  arrived in NZ 1842 age 8 on Timandra who married Charles Baker in 1852 and another born 1831 to Henry & Ann both baptized in different parishes of Cornwall who arrived in NZ in 1852 and married John Grigg in 1855.
I will get the marriage print of of Jane & James Ellery

Thanks Bernice ...

Yes I think it's a very good idea to get the marriage printout (1882) for Jane and James.   The info contained for Jane, will have been provided by Jane herself and thus be a much more reliable source.   

I have the GRINTER info (for Robert's  family ) to place here ... might wait until you receive marriage printout and do it then.

I have uploaded the Parents section of James Ellery & Jane Baker marriage cert but it has got me no further as Jane is still not on the BMD
I also had problems transcribing her mothers christian  name other than It is not Jane as that is written clearly for her
Hoping for some help
thanks

Hi Bernice

Mmm ... I think the mother's name is "Jane" (and I thought so even before reading your comment  ).     
Another thing too is that when Jane was having children with GRINTER, she was known as Jenny (variable spellings).   So given that Jenny is a "pet name" for Jane, it may well be that she was known by Jenny to differentiate her from her mother of the same name ??
-----------

Can you also let us know all the details for Jane BAKER that appear on the marriage printout, please ?

- date & place of marriage
- her age
- was she a widow* .... or did she claim to be a "spinster"  ?   
- her birthplace
- residence at time of marriage
- also the names / occupations / addresses of the witnesses to the marriage.

[Don't need the info for James ELLERY ... and if the Witnesses names are not clear, could you post an image of that portion of the printout to this thread,  please? ]

[* Didn't ever find a marriage for Jenny (or Jane) and Robert GRINTER.  ]
