Frangelico, am absolutely thrilled to hear you are related - we never heard much of the Jackson side. I have done some research but you will no doubt have more information. I will pm you.

Hello everyone,
Finally replying to your posts, my sincere apologies. I have not been on Rootschat for a very, very long time due to continuous ill-health. I am as ever totally interested in any story, any detail, even a description of anything or anyone to do with it. I have enjoyed reading all your posts just now.
I will endeavour to put up the few photos I have to do with Ryle Ltd, which I hope you will enjoy. I have yet to find an interior photo of the store.
I also aim to reply to each post individually.
Thanks again.

Hello,
Just a suggestion for looking for Catherine Ryle from Ireland or any others from back then - there were two main pockets of Ryles - Dublin and Ardfert, near Tralee, Co. Kerry. I would think the Ardfert one very likely.

Part 2 -
Thanks for those marriages - you've struck gold with that Westgarth one because that is most definitely correct - we found an elderly relation who told us Sarah's sister married a Westgarth but we did not know who. Up to a week ago, we did not know how many siblings Sarah had!
Yes I did think the fields might be nearer back then, but I had a look at the street as it is today and it looks pretty established in the heart of the village. I guess one day I might find a map of back then.
I am presuming that Thompson Whitfield would be classed as farm labourer or something like that if he worked on a farm owned by someone else. He must have known the Jacksons through farming anyway.
That's great to find Margaret Jackson visiting on the 1881. Bedburn is a new name to me, no previous mention of it, but I see it is not far from Wolsingham. I have no idea who those Longstaffs are. The Longstaff I had mentioned in my sig is someone who married into another side of the family, in Northumberland and in the 20th century! Right , I will have to keep an eye out for Longstaffs now. The Lowe name is complete news to me, something to work with....

Hi,
Yes I have not located Hannah in 1881. I do not know if she died young or age 11 in 1881 was with another relation like Sarah was.
I have found a Mary Hannah Jackson b 1870 marriage in 1891 in Wolsingham to a Michael Jackson Metcalfe (related??!!) and bride's father is a Thomas Jackson!
Coincidence or little Hannah originally Mary Hannah I don't know. The names did not filter through the generations.
There's also another Mary Hannah Jackson marrying a George Metcalfe in Wolsingham in 1846. Probably another coincidence.
On familysearch.org there does not appear to be a christening record for Hannah 1870, just Hannah 1841, Thomas' sister. I can't see one for the Mary Hannah Jackson b 1870 in Wolsingham either.

Thanks Keyboard that's wonderful. It's amazing to gain another sister for Sarah. Do you think Ann & Hannah were living there or just visiting?
I wonder why the Whitfields were living in the middle of the village when he was a farmer. Maybe he rented land without a house?

Hi,
Back to the 1871 - Where is Ann Jackson living with her father?
I see that in the baptisms there is a William Jackson born to Thomas and Ann in 1866. I wonder if he died young. It would make sense that he would be the same family as Thomas' father was William.
I did however come across an Alice Jackson christened in Wolsingham 1872 to a Thomas and Ann Jackson, who appears to be a different family, in Brandon & Byshottles on the 1881 census and she is the only child born in Wolsingham.

Thanks for the 1871 Jacksons - strange Mrs Jackson is not there. She would have been pregnant with Margaret at the time, but only early on.
So she is with her father with another child Hannah? Do you think that child died so?
I must get this all down on paper now there are Whitfields too.
I was looking yesterday at Wolsingham Jacksons and found of all names, a christening of a Whitfield Jackson, son to John & Eve in 1816. Not only that but a second son of the same name to the same couple in 1818. So there may be Whitfield connections further back. Unusual first name for a child so it must have been important. No link to them as such but will keep it in mind.
I discovered references to Jacksons in Wolsingham back to the 17th century, so will have to see how far back I can get with my Jacksons.
