Hi I have both cunninghams and swales in my family.
Jane cunningham born 1851 parents john and Ellen cunningham married John docherty. A lot of the cunninghams born England married into Scottish travelers.
My ancestor Hannibal swales born 1811 Yorkshire married Christiana stephenson. Their daughter laviania swales (1837) married William pattison .Their son George Pattison (1860) married Isabella Farrow.
Hope this helps or someone recognises these names

Hi everyone,
Have been researching my Stephensons and Swales and wondered if anybody here has access to the Pocklington parish records and the marriage of Francis Swales and Christiana Stephenson 25th August 1800.
There are a lot of Trees on Ancestry that have Christiana Stephenson being born at Boynton 1781. Have been going over this for some time and found Christiana Stephenson married Samuel Holtby at Boynton in 1804. Have the birth of a son John Holtby or Houltby at Rillington in 1807 son of Samuel and Christa. So I think good possibility they have the wrong Christiana in their Trees. Who she was I don't know.
Also, which Francis Swales did she marry, the one born in Aycliffe Durham in 1783 or the one born in Stillington in 1781. I am leaning to the one born in Aycliff.
Any thoughts or info on this please.
Val
