Title: Northern Travellers (Burnside, Morrison and Stewart.... help please
Post by: MiaBurnside on Monday 20 June 11 13:30 BST (UK)
Hi

Im new to posting although I have lurked for quite a time!

When I was a little girl I used to go out 'hawking' with my Grandma selling rugs around the Leicestershire villages. She'd be done up to the nines with her rings and sovereigns and I would wish I wasn't there! I also used to go out with my Grandad picking up scrap metal and taking it to 'the yard' to weigh it in

Unfortunately she didn't tell me much about her background so I have very limited information to trace her family back. There are names on here that I seem to know. Janey, Wilsons, Elliotts, Fred Smith or is it Fred Elliot

Grandma was Elizabeth Burnside b.1916 Manchester. Her father was Richard Burnside but I'm not sure which one! I think it was the one born Skipton 1880. Her mother was Mary Stewart and I recall her saying her grans name was Annie Stewart.

She married John Joseph Monaghan in 1933. His mother was Nancy Morrison. He died in 1943 and she later married a Tom Woodward. I think he came from travelling stock too. His birth certificate said born in a tent somewhere in Norfolk.

If anyone has any information, please let me know. Please bear in mind I am unable to PM anyone until I've posted x3.
Thanks
Mia

Hi Mia.

Welcome toRootsChat.   The names you mentioned were definately travellers.  Maybe when a few more people on this board see your post you may get some answers.  In the meantime you can reply to me and then be able to PM whom ever you may wish to.

hi, mia, welcome. it would take a bit more info to help you. but for now i can say that i am related to the wilsons, burnsides, and stewerts all well known old travelling folki. there are lots of romany men called dick burnside, and a lot live in the skipton  and north yorks areas, and all of the names you mention still travel around today. something i can tell you the wagon in the photo is the rolls royce of its day, looks like a bill wrights, there is no poverty there. these are well off travellers, still holds true today. i used to hawk rugs carpets etc myself. and the wilsons still do. l know what you mean about being ladged, ( embarrased ) when hawking, i used to go out with my mother many years ago now, and did not want to be there! my dad used to say a traveller  cannot afford to be ladged, we have to make a living. anyway i am sure you will find lots of info on this site. by the way my brother in law/ had a brother in law, jim burnside, dead now. that did scrap metal in skipton he was first cousin to my dad. so we may be related somewhere? if you want to pm me feel free. bye rob..

Hi there I am too related to the Stewarts and the Wilsons, but having trouble finding relatives of my Martha Stewart born either Ireland or Yorkshire born approx 1806.  She married William Stewart in Yarm in 1824.  Any help on Martha Wilson would be a help, as she is my 4th great grandmother.  Thanks.

hi, feesca1, i am in my fifties, when i was a boy and i never asked my family about the stewart connection. except we camped with jimmy stewart. my mothers first cousin born penrith cumberland circa 1920s, sadly all the older folks are dead, and as yet i have not began to research that side of my tree, there is info on them living in foster street penrith on familysearch.org in 1881 census, they were hawker/horse and general dealers. some went to the kendal, ulveston areas, others scotland,they are a fairly large traveller family. as with most romany  folki, family relations. are a lot more verbal than written,  i know they were in lancashire also. my mother was a miller, and you will often find both familys living in the same areas on censuses., sorry i cannot help more at this time.  but when i get round to researching them i will let you know if i find a connection. rob...

Hi,

 I only started researching my family tree yesterday so i am very new to all of this. Burnside is my mothers maiden name, her father been tommy burnside son of henry and mary burnside (maiden name cunningham) henrys parents were edward and hannah burnside. this is as far as i have come wih it but my mum mentions they were from a travelling background and also i have spotted in this post that there is a mention of a a richard burnside, and i was wondering if he is the same richard i have who is brother to edward. I was wondering whether there was any family connection or not.

Hi there,

My ancestor Ann STEWART/STUART (c 1815-1871) married my ancestor Isaac Pattison (c. 1812-1888) in Whitby, Yorkshire in 1835.

He was a peddler tinner and brazier and lived in and around what is now Teesside in England.

He later married Ann Gordon (nee BURNSIDE) in Middlesbrough in 1880.

I'm looking for a baptism for his first wife, but the census records her birthplace as being Kendal one year, Penrith another and Lancaster another (1851/1861/1871).

How can I find out which branch of the family she belongs too?!

Title: Re: Northern Travellers (Burnside, Morrison and Stewart.... help please
Post by: king otg on Monday 18 February 13 17:58 GMT (UK)
Since you have found Ann STEWART in three censuses and she is also with Isaac in 1841 at 1291/6//49/15 as Ann PATTERSON (age 25) where she claimed to have been born within the county (Yorkshire) the way to find out which baptism is hers is to eliminate all the others. If you should find any other Ann STEWART in any census then you know that they are not the right one.

These are referred to as 'negative checks', looking for who she is not, and you end up with who she must be. From there on if you fill out the brothers and sisters of both Ann and Isaac you can see where the forenames are coming from and a pattern emerges.

Hello to you all, I am new to all this ancestry stuff. I have been doing my family tree on ancestry and have come to my third great grandmother violet bonside (burnside) born 1842. Her parents were Edward bonside (burnside) and Ann Bonside (burnside). Her siblings include susannah (born abt 1841), william (born abt1842), Hannah (born abt 1843), ambrose ( born abt 1846), ann (born abt 1846) edwin (born abt 1847) , edward ( born abt 1848), richard (born abt 1855) and isabella ( born abt 1858).
I have been struggling because i was looking for bonsides and on some census they are burnsides. It was one census where the occupation of edward was entered as pottery/ glass hawker and ann was entered as hawker. I will admit i had to google the meaning of hawker to find out.
If anyone can help me fill in the details of the family it would be really appreciated and any photographs would be fantastic. I have read several posts before replying and I am sure that you will be able to help me. Thankyou very much for reading my post. I hope someone will reply. :)

There are lots of Trees on Ancestry with all of this set out.  You are connected way back in my Burnsides.  It is difficult with the misspelling of the name.     Burnsides were travelers.  A most interesting heritage.  Will pm you with my Tree. :) :)  Val

Post by: Steve Knight on Thursday 28 November 19 00:53 GMT (UK)
Good evening guys,

I am currently writing a historical fiction novel in which a group nicknamed the Burnplatters also known as 'Duediz' feature heavily. They at one time dwelled on the 'Burnt Platts' at Worsell now known as Worts Hill at Pole Moor in Scammonden on the border of Yorkshire and Lancashire. I do know they would move around the Marsden Moor estate at the time, probably because the estates in the Worsell area were owned by the Earl of Dartmouth. On the Huddersfield Exposed Website, it seems that someone had been also researching the same thing. I've emailed the person that runs the website and he is unable to corroborate whether the Burnsides' really were the family that dwelled on the Burnt Platts.

I first stumbled across the group when reading the D.F.E. Sykes novel 'Miriam - A Tale of Pole and the Greenfield Hills.' What I will say is, if it is true, (which I think it is.) I am sure they were not the only family that were living on the Platts at that time. Other names I have come across that were possibly residing there were Sykes, Armitage, Parkin, Pearson, Sugden and Shaw (mostly typical Yorkshire surnames). The Scot heritage seems to fit with the Burnsides, Morrison and Stewart; names of more Scottish heritage. Another reference to 'Duediz' is a rumour that these families were former Jacobite militiamen of Bonny Prince Charles, and they took refuge in the wilderness following the abandonment of the Jacobite cause and his flight from the front lines. The fact that the platters were travellers and were 'hawking' and pushing wares seems to fit with other references I have come across which points towards these being the real Burnplatters. I am very excited at the potential of finding the peoples that actually dwelled on the Burnt Platts in their stone and mud hovels thatched with sods. The following is the link directly to the location of Burnt Platts as referenced on Huddersfield Exposed. https://huddersfield.exposed/wiki/Burnt_Platts,_Slaithwaite (https://huddersfield.exposed/wiki/Burnt_Platts,_Slaithwaite)

I would love to get into contact with any Burnside, Morrison, Stewart, Shaw, Sugden or anyone else for that matter with any information, family folk tales of old about these families that would dwell on the Burnt Platts. Any help would be absolutely brilliant!

Thanks

Steve
