Hello All,
Seeking information of Joseph Dulston, Boatbuilder, possibly of Whitchurch, roughly between 1790 and 1830. Or/and his family.

Oxfordshire / DULSTON Family
« on: Sunday 11 November 18 04:25 GMT (UK)  »
Hello All
It's been a little over ten years since I was here enquiring about this family, but ......
The 1871 Census lists Samuel DULSTON and his wife Jane, with children Joseph, William, Edward, Harry, Arthur, and at one stage there was a daughter Emma.

What I am seeking is someone, descended from any of the children EXCEPT William, who has taken a DNA test for family history purposes.

I need to either prove, or disprove, a familial connection.

Thanks in advance (with fingers crossed) .....

Thank you, Annette.

Joseph and Ciceley are the couple I was initially seeking, and you've followed that up with their parents as well.
Many, many thanks for that information.

It appears that I may be a direct line descendant of this family in a quite unexpected fashion.

Regards
Wombat

Possibly, Trish, but until I get Joseph and Cecily sorted it's rather difficult to say.
Thank you very much though, I'll keep this family on record.

Hi Romilly (and others)

The marriage of William DULSTON and Eliza WATKINS in 1876 took place in Portsea, Hampshire. Their address at time of marriage was Ryde, Isle of Wight. There were two witnesses; the male witness was the Vicar's son, and the female lived a few houses away from the church. As you may have mentioned there is no apparent entries for this DULSTON couple after this event. It prompts me, though, to ask myself why get married (anonymously) in Portsea when there seemed to be an abundance of churches on the IofW.
Interestingly buried in the Portsea churchyard was a William WARREN.

William and Eliza WARREN crop up with the birth of their first son, William Edward, in August 1876 when they were living in Ventnor, Isle of White. 

After all these years, this is still doing my head in ....

Hi Wombat.
Thanks for your response which is very interesting as Joseph Brewster (b1739 d17??) (do you know when he died?) was my 4x Great Grandfather.
As he was also your 5x Great Uncle, it follows that our common ancestor is therefore their father JONATHON BREWSTER (1698 - 1765) who married Ann Mafin in 1719 in Good Easter which I believe makes us 5th cousins.
According to my FT they had at least 7 children viz John(B1721), Ann(b1722), Martha(b1727), Tabitha(b1730), Jonathon(b1732), Edward(b1735) and Joseph(b1739)
Who are you descended from?
I have another three generations in my FT back to John Brewster c1590 who in 1625 married a Jane ?
Does this tie in with your tree?
Hope to hear from you sometime as I would like to continue this dialogue with you.
Best Regards,
10dorking

Hello 10dorking,
Once again please excuse the delay ....
Unless I've mucked up my 'tree' our earliest ancestor (at least in my pile) is Tom (Thomas) BREWSTER b. Good Easter abt 1626. Buried Good Easter 10 Sep 1670.
He had 3 children with Ann - Jonathan BREWSTER (12 Mar 1652), Thomas BREWSTER (8 Oct 1655) and Anne BREWSTER (2 Oct 1658).

if you could PM me an email address there are several reports/lists which I'd like to send you.
Regards
Wombat

Hi Wombat.
Thanks for your response. Sorry for the delay in replying but I only received an email wrt your response to my Gt Waltham thread.
My connection with Pleshey is as follows:-
GGGGF was William Brewster b1782 (Gt Waltham) m1811 (Gt Waltham) Mary Dowsell who then moved to and then lived in Pleshey.
Their son, my GGGF William Brewster b1811 (Pleshey?) m1838 (Pleshey?) Sarah Pool.
Their son, my GGF George Brewster b1845 (Pleshey) m1868 (Woodham Walter?) Emily Bowles.
Their son, my GF William Brewster b1877 (Pleshey) m1897 (Romford) Rebecca Ann Cole.
The big unknowns all concern my GGGGF and his family as they predate FreeBMD and I cant find them on Family Search. (I assume that the Pleshey/Holy Trinity records have not yet been transcribed?)
Do you have any info at all on this particular family?
Does this info match up with your FT?
Looking forward to your response.

10dorking.

Hi 10dorking
I'm afraid I don't seem to have replied to your last post.
I have your William BREWSTER being the son of Joseph BREWSTER of Good Easter. Joseph was my 5x grand uncle.
Please let me know if you're still interested.

Regards
Wombat
