Hi Tanya

You will be pleased about this as yes Julie does have a file on this Phillip and John Pumfrey and she has asked me to give you her e.mail address so you can write to her direct.

She is also sending me a copy fo the file which is absolutely great.

After you have looked at it I would be very interested in hearing about how it all ties together with your family so I am giving you my address as well.

Julie's is    (*)

Hi Allan

Thanks for all the information you have given me, it all looks very interesting.   I have tried to find the 1835 Tythe by doing what you said, but I have been unable to find anything regarding the owners of fields, so I must be doing something wrong.  All I could find was historical sites and there seem to be plenty of those at Brimfield.

I did want to look i any case 1835 is too late for my Powis family, as I am from a distaff line.  Elizabeth Powis my 4x GGM was baptised 1738 the daughter daughter of Richard Powis and Ann Constable.  They had 6 other children.    Richard the father baptised 1706 was the son of Thomas Powis and Ann???  Richard also had 6 siblings.    I have not found the marriage of Thomas Powis and Ann, neither have I found Thomas's birth/baptism.   William, Richard and Thomas seem to be popular Powis family names, but I have not come across a Francis yet.

As my husband has 3 noble families in his ancestry, I do like the idea of being descended from the Welsh Princes but of course that has to be "proven".  At the moment the best my ancestors can be is farmers and shopkeepers, but they mostly seem to be ag labs.   

Now to go back to familysearch and see if I can find anything different on there.  Though that is usually my first port of call and then I try to "prove" what I found on there.

Thanks once again for replying.

Hi Eric

No I hadn't looked before, YES it is interesting.    Funnily enough on speaking to one of Bill's cousins over the week-end, she promised to go to the Shakespeare centre for us to look up Bloxhams, Ingles, Alexanders and Mauncel/Mancels in the Visitations.   I have just asked if she could look up 3 Thomas Bloxham ones from a2a for me.

Thank you, I appreciate you sending this.

Hi Eric

Nice to hear from you again.   I haven't got any further with your query or with mine.   Hopefully in the near future something will leap out at me and I can say.  Eureka.

I didn't realise that they blocked e.mails I have never tried to send one before.   So you know what the mean by the Pm system.

Ahh I see an e.mail icon at the top.  I suppose I click on that.  Will try it anyway.

Hi Paul

I deserve that (yes it was 3 years but an apology is better late than never, I hope).   I was doing a trawl of James Jones, Wardington and of course Rootsweb popped up and I realised that I had been so rude to someone who was trying to help.

I don't understand why I wasn't flagged by Rootschat that you had replied three years ago.  OR, and this is probably the case, I had so many spam e.mails that about 3 years ago (not sure of the date) I fitted a spam filter and this insisted that any new e.mails were not friends and flagged them up as blacklisted with a deletion tick beside it, I had to physically un-tick it.   It still does that to this day with new people, even if I have the address in my address book it will do this to someone who hasn't replied to me before.    I would take it off but with all the spam you get nowadays, I don't want them clogging up my computer, it has crashed already once this year.   Sorry waffling on a bit.

MOVED ON - well yes    and no  .    After a gap of 2 years, I am again researching on behalf of my friend and I have had lots of luck with her Ward family, from a distant Ward cousin, and now have that branch back to 1620.   They are from Wardington and that is not on IGI or anywhere else I can find on the web and which does make it very difficult to research.   

The Jones family is a different matter (why did she have to have the name Jones in her family), James Jones who married Ann Wilson, born c 1812, he doesn't seem to be on the Wardington parish register.    I found James on the 1871 aged 59 a carpenter born Wardington he had his son James born 1848 still living with him.    Ann was not, so I assume she died sometime after 1848 and before 1871.     I have found James junior on all the other censuses, so he isn't a problem.   I also found his sister Mary Elizabeth on the 1881 she was living in Northampton with her husband and children.

Ann Wilson baptised 1812 in Wardington, her parents Richard Joseph Wilson and his wife Elizabeth came from Coton, which I understand is/was almost part of Wardington.

Richard Joseph Wilson was in the Wardington parish register baptised 2/9/1787 mother Keziah - no father mentioned.

So although I have not got any further back than James Jones in my firends direct line, I have found her 2 living cousins, plus loads of information on her family a bit lower down the tree.

Thank you for replying and once again SORRY.
