Cathy:)

Hi Sea Eagle,
Yes I am researching the Clendinnen family in Berwick as Elizabeth Clendinnen married James Renwick in 1840 in Berwick.
James and Elizabeth later migrated to Australia and I am descended from their son Robert.

GDAY bob:)
I would be very interested in hearing from you re this CLENDINNEN lot in Berwickshire
My Mother being a CLENDINNEN, There are CLENDINNENS in Victoria, Who are related to My lot of CLENDINNENS from SA
Do u know who Elizabeths Parents were?
Thanks
Regards
Cathy:)
My Lot originally came from Co Down In ireland Thru John Clendinnen born circa 1770, was a wsleyan minister , travelled all over ireland, eventually retiring to Bideford in Devon, where we think his wife Mary Charlotte(nee ELLIS) family was from
-
Hello Cathy,
My Elizabeth Clendinnen was the daughter of Henry Clendinnen and Jean Reed Whale. As far as I know Henry's parents were Joseph Clendinnen and Jean Meckilroy.
I have been to Earlston a few years ago however the house numbers seem to be different and I couldn't locate their home.

GDAY Bob:)
Thanks for your reply...It is a Possibility we may have a Match There.
As U have a JOSEPH CLINDININ married a BETTY MCELROY from Ballinalough Co Down, He Died in 1818
Some of their Desecendants Moving back to Earlston Berwickshire
Theres a Clendinnen Researcher In England, Connected to My line, who has done a Lot of Research into the Clendinnen Line in Ireland, But we are Stuck at a John CLENDINNEN born 1770 In Down
we are thinking that this JOSEPH CLENDINNEN of yours and JOHN CLENDINNEN may be brothers or even cousins as the Name JOSEPH appears in our descendants lists too
Would be great if we could have a CLENDINNEN from this line submit to DNA studies to see if there is definitely a connection as we think there is, but need proof
And what also is interesting one of our CLENDINNEN lot married a ANNAND in canada in 1891, her family being from inverness in canada
Need to see if anyyone has joseph Clindinnens Parents
Note also so many different spellings of CLENDINNEN too
Regards

Thanks for that very kind thought Terry, buy I have visited Earlstom and photographed the stones. Although I think that one may have been toppled at the time, I will check to ensure that I have all the ones you mention.

Hi Terrie and bob:)
Apologise for not having written earlier re this CLENDINNEN lot
And Terrie i would be more than gratefull for those pics of Tombstones, Thanks
Bob I think this Earlston Berwick lot of CLENDINNENS whose father was joseph CLINDINNIN from Co Down may connect t my lot from Co Down
As we have several Joseph Clendinnens in our Line, But cant find Birth of this Joseph CLINDINNIN from Down or who his parents were but possibility mmaybe Brother of my John Clendinnen Born 1770 in Co Down
Regards

Hello
My great grandmother was Jane Clendinnen of Earlston (born 1847), daughter of William and Elisabeth who weremanufacturers of the Earlston Ginghams. She married Joseph Francis of London in 1871 who lived in North London - Hornsey and Hampstead Garden Suburb, and worked for the Metrolpolitan Water Board.
On a visit to Earlston many years ago I was shwon a wonderful sample book of the Earlston Ginghams, at that time in the possession of an elderly man called John Weatherly of Melrose. I've often wondered where these are now. He also had a postcard photograph showing the Clendinnens meeting the Prime Minister Herbert Asquith on a visit to Earlston.
There's a connection with William Fairbairn the Victorian engineer and bridge buidler.
I have more information but need to look it out.
Best wishes
Jude

Hi Jude:)
Thanks for your Post Re Clendinnen....Your Lot of Clendinnens connect back to the Co Down Clindinnings thru Joseph Clindinning and ive often wondered do my lot of Clendinnens...John Clendinnen born 1770 in co Down connect to this lot
Iffff only your Clendinnen lot have done a Dna Sample via a Male Clendinnen, so we could compare the samples
Regards

Just a quick note, in the Scottish Borders do not limit your searches to Bewickshire, check out Roxburghshire and Selkirkshire - minimal miles between area borders from Earlston and if not Clendinnen, Glendinning quite common over the whole of the Scottish Borders.

Hi terianne:)
Thanks for that...Actually my Mother who was a Clendinnen, said the Name may have been originally glendinning thought to be from kircudbright and dumfriess areas , went to co down...theres a book called *house of Glendonwyn* by George Talbot Clindinning a Cousin of My Grandfather...Very Interesting Book
Regards

Just found this site and was interested in the comments/questions about the Clendinnen/Whale family in Earlston. Can I refer you to our Facebook page called Lost Earlston. I am admin for page and have just today posted photographs of Prime Minister Asquiths visit to the village in 1908. One of the pictures show some of the Clendinnen family. We also have a piece of gingham in our archive.

Thanks for the link to your Lost Earlston Facebook page. I'll have a look and so glad the photo of the Clendinnens with Asquith has surfaced.

Hi
Its been several Years since i Last Looked at Clendinnens in Earlston Berwickshire My gggrandfather was Rev John C Clendinnen born circa 1770 in Downnpatrick Co Down And According to another Clendinnen Researcher he may Connect to a Joseph Clindinning in Co Down who married a Betty Mcelroy Joseph died Circa 1816 He had a Son Henry Who went to Earlston Looks like the name reverted back to Clendinnen there Interested in anyone researching this family and if they have done dna studies I have thru Ancestry and Ftdna
Thanks
Cathy:)
