Lancashire Lookup Requests / Joseph BAINES b. 1807 Claughton on Brock
« on: Monday 22 February 10 01:15 GMT (UK) »
My ancestor from Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, United States, is Joseph Baines. His cemetery headstone has been found:
Inscription:
JOSEPH BAINES
BORN June 26, 1807
[looks like June 26, 1807. This date, independently recorded, does exactly match a Joseph Baines born in Claughton-on-Brock, Lancashire, England - emigrated to America 1827]
[cannot read next line]
ENGLAND
DIED June 21st, 1851
It sure looks like he is the second Joseph Baines in this family, thanks to an email through a Baines family researcher:
6. Joseph BAINES b: 26 JUN 1807 in Claughton On Brock, LAN, ENG c: 26 JUN 1807 in Saint Thomas-Rc, Claughton On Brock LAN ENG
and they think he went to US.
Parents James Baines and Cecily Swarbrick.
I have a list of children from the Records of St. Thomas.
Does anyone know if son William also went to US?
3. William BANES b: 6 JAN 1803 in Claughton On Brock, LAN, ENG c: 6 JAN 1803 in Saint Thomas-Rc, Claughton On Brock LAN ENG
I have perhaps found him in 1840, Allegheny, Allegheny, Pennsylvania:
1840 Census
William Banes two away from Joseph Banes, if it is our Joseph. I think it likely it is.
looks like William Banes but hand writing is cramped.
Do you think this is him, or did he stay in England?
What did James Baines do for a living, does anyone know the Baines back then? or the Swarbricks?
