Title: Ann Topham Pentrich
Post by: Jopeg on Saturday 30 November 13 17:57 GMT (UK)
A couple of things really.

Marriage of Ann Topham to John Eaton South Wingfield 1725 could somebody check this to see if it gives Ann's father's name (or anything else).

Also I believe she was born in Pentrich, I think either to John and Mary Topham 1700 or John and Jane Topham 1705, I would be interested in John and Mary and John and Jane's marriages to find out what the brides' maiden names were.

Thanks ;)

you can see this for yourself:-

Scroll down and select South Wingfield.

There is a will dated 1729 for a John Topham of Pentrich, Husbandman. It may give some clues to which Ann you are searching for if she is mentioned in the will.

Have you found a death / burial for your Ann?

Well I can't take credit for finding it but 1775 Darley Dale (Ann Eaton).

Hi,

John died Darley 1777, so if this is your John & Ann Eaton could the following entry
also be for your John Eaton.  It is from the book:-

History of the County of Derby by Stephen Glover Part 2  page 264 -
"Rentals of the Corporation of Chesterfield AD 1773. Robert Jinnings, Mayor.

John Eaton   - A Farm at Snitterton    £33. 0. 0.

Connection is (sorry do not know how to shorten):-

Hi,

This also may assist, it is "Ince's Pedigree" from the www.wirksworth.org.uk site:-

http://www.wirksworth.org.uk/INC-055.htm#058a

The note at the very end of the pedigree, re the burials of a Jane & Catherine Eaton would suggest
they were the children of  John & Ann Horne. (nos. 4 & 5 on pedigree).

No 11 on the Tree - John Eaton, carpenter of London  -  His indenture papers are on Ancestry:-

London, England, Freedom of the City Admission Papers, 1681-1925
Name:   John Eaton
Residence County:   Derbyshire
Admission Date:   3 Dec 1755
Master's Name:   William Wells
Father's Name:   John Eaton

Yes I have come across this, good but apparently not entirely accurate.

It is good to have anything that far back...  :D

I haven't got definite details for Ann Topham's parents - it is a few years since I did any research on this side but I was told by another distant relative that  Anthony's mother Ann Eaton, nee Topham's family have a grand(ish) grave in Pentrich churchyard, which is under a big yew tree there.
