That is brilliant :) :D ;D thank you so much , no I didn't have it. The one I am really after is their son Levi born about 1907 ish should you come across it I would be eternally grateful. ::)

Just searched 1906-1908 Holy Trinity Milton for Levi Dightons birth / no joy but quite pleased with myself. :) All down to you.

There are some Deightons listed on the 1901 census for Surrey, page 86, 493
Walter Deighton 36, born Streatham
Solomon Deighton 12, born Tunbridge, Surrey
Noah Deighton 9, born Croydon, Surrey
All listed as Gypsies at Bottom Barn, Court Farm, Rural District of Godstone, Surrey.
Not born in Plumstead but not a million miles away so may be related.
-
Thanks for that, not sure if they are mine- did see your post and did look for birth but no luck :)
-
Hi have been concentrating on my fathers side of the family for the last 6 months or so but am just starting an my mothers.
My nans maiden name was Dighton and her father was Lawrence Dighton. Born 1876. He married Kate Carey and the Careys and Lawrence Dighton are on the same census 1901 and they appear to have Plumstead as the place of birth.
Not sure if they are connected but please let me know if you think they may be and i will le you know what i have to date( which isnt much so far)

Hi Angiebuns,
I have sent you a private message. Will help if possible.
-
Hi just came across this site by chance. Looking for a line of Dightons. Grandfather was Nou, had three sons Lawrence, Leonard and Maurice used to have a small general store in Penhill before it was demolished for a roundabout. Any info would be interesting
-
Hi Paulevo
I will be glad to do some lookups for you. Can you give me more info to search on. There are Three Nou Dightons, 1837, 1900, 1902. There are numerous Lawrences Maurices etc. Can you give indications of Birth/Marriage /Death years for Nou or any of his family or known addresses.
-
Hi I don't know a great deal. Nou was married to Isabel and lived at Penhill where they had a small shop in the front of their house. The area was redeveloped and is now a roundabout. They both moved to Crayford until they died. Lawrence married Audrey Cook and moved to Sittingbourne. Maurice married Iris and moved to Sittingbourne, he was killed in a vehicle crash on Death Hill. I know the family had roots in East London and were involved in the Docks and that's about it. Not much I'm afraid

Hi,
I've been tracing my Gypsy branches and have Deighton/Dighton/Ditton gypsies married into my Shoesmith family. So far I only had an Essex link with some London areas for Shoesmith but will have to check the areas all your ones were in just in case my one was there too, although none of you mentioned her.
Here is my ancestral line ( from my gt grandmother ):
Frances Amelia Wright b1898 Epping -m- Frederick John Swanborough ( non gypsy )
Elizabeth Shoesmith b1873 Loughton -m- Joseph Wright ( Tinker )
Amelia Deighton b 1852 Braintree -- Isaiah Shoesmith b1849 Chigwell ( Chair Caner )
James Shoesmith b1819 Harrow -m- Ann Odell b1819 Hitchin ( Tinman )
Abraham Shoesmith b1791 Harrow --- Herodias (Tinman)
John Shoesmith --- Mary
I haven't been successful in finding a birth or marriage for Amelia. However I did see a Mazalea Ditton born in Cressing 1851 daughter of Silence Ditton b1826 White Colne. Silence and Solomon ( a sibling of this Mazalea ) are names used by the shoesmith family. I have adopted her for the moment but would like to find clarification.
If someone can confirm if and where they have seen this Mazalea elsewhere or if and where they have seen an Amelia.
Thanks in advance

Hi everyone
I just wanted to say hi. I'm looking at my Carey line (paternal grandmother) and one of her aunts Richelda married a Dighton I believe.
I also have other Deightons in my tree but would need to look to find the links.
Does anyone remember any Carey's around Belvedere and Sidcup areas?
Kind regards
Claire

Hi, I found a Kate ( daughter of Samson and Louisa ) living with a Laurence Dighton in 1901, but they may have married in 1948, or it is a different Catherine Carey and Laurence Dighton rofl. I believe that Laurence may be the one that lived in Essex during one of the censuses but he was in Kent in some of them too along with quite a few siblings. He may be connected to my Dightons somewhere but I haven't found the connection yet due to a lack of official marriage records and tons of name changes.
I found Richelda Carey with her parents and a marriage index for a Richelda Dighton but where first names tend to be banded around I won't assume its the same Richelda until the image / certificate surfaces somewhere. Okay, confirmed .. Richelda Dighton, daughter of William Dighton married Matthew Scamp in 1906. So no marriage for Richelda or a census record showing her living with a Dighton.
-
Thank you!
My mistake Richelda married a Bagley but the Catherine or Kate is my line. Samson and Louisa are my g.g.grandfathers cousin and his wife.

Don’t suppose any of you knew of a George smith (snappers George) his wife was me granny we don’t no her maiden name of much of her family. George and Sylvia lived on Abbey Wood in the 70s
