Devon Lookup Requests / Re: Mary Ann KING birth or parents in Devon
« on: Sunday 18 December 11 07:23 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you Martin & DOB7, :-[  I made a silly mistake whan I mentioned Stoke Demeral being in Portsmouth I knew it was Plymouth as I had found some other details. Regarding Richard King, he certainly had children when he sailed on the same ship as Mary Ann (nee king) and Sampson Marshall. Some good info from another person who wrote a note about Sampson Marshall ...."With his wife and 6 of their remaining 7 children (Richard Purvis stayed behind until 1837) he left London on 10th July 1834 aboard the "David Scott" arriving in Sydney, Australia on 25th October 1834. Also on board was his brother-in law, Richard King with his wife and their 5 children. I will do some more hunting here to find Richard King and family members. I do know that Sampson Marshall & Mary Ann had 4 children in Hatherleigh prior to more in London and Australia. I think the Richard King & Creston Down mentioned by DOB7 could have been the parents of Richard King.

Hi Elsie, I note that you had a person listed in your post PHILIP YEO b. Stratton  1759. I have a YEO born in Stratton, Margaret YEO bpt 25 April 1744 with parents William YEO and Elizabeth UGLOW would there be a close connection? Do you have any info on the YEO family in Stratton, Cornwall?  I have done limited research delving the Parish records at Stratton. Any help would be appreciated.

Devon Lookup Requests / Mary Ann KING birth or parents in Devon
« on: Friday 16 December 11 06:46 GMT (UK)  »
I’ve been drawing a blank on the ancestry of Mary Ann KING (b. Abt. 1788) who was married at Hatherleigh, Devon on 18 Jan 1813 to Sampson MARSHALL. :'(

Sampson MARSHALL was from Stratton in Cornwall and was a young Lieutenant in the Navy. He was also the Warden at the docks in Plymouth in 1831 before he emigrated to Australia with his wife in 1834. I have much info on Sampson MARSHALL but no parents or birth place for Mary Ann KING. I know that her brother Richard KING with wife and five children were on the same ship to Australia.

There is one Mary Ann KING that I have found from LDS... Christened in 1786 in the Parish of Stoke Damerel (Portsmouth). However there is no cross reference (confirmation) to how she is linked or is actually the correct person.

Question: The marriage at Hatherleigh in 1813 may show her parents, age and her birth place. Can anyone help with any info on Mary Ann King and her brother Richard King. Where were they born and who were their parents?
Any assistance would be appreciated. Nigel (Melbourne, 8) Australia)

Cheshire Lookup Requests / Re: Bate & Beresford
« on: Monday 03 May 10 03:01 BST (UK)  »
Hello again mshrmh, Thanks for the info on Parish Records beta site. I also managed to find the marriage of my 4th Great Grandparents Charles Bate and Hannah Hall in Nov 1764 and many of their offspring in Church Lawton. All of which are GGG GrandUncles and Aunts! I feel confident that this is the correct ancestory line back.

Thank you mshrmh! I'll have a look at the familyseach web site for futher info. I'm not sure but I believe that Astbury may cover Chuch Lawton and Betchton? That would fill many gaps in my research. Nigel  8) (Melbourne)

Cheshire Lookup Requests / Bate & Beresford
« on: Friday 30 April 10 13:16 BST (UK)  »
I'm aware that Cheshire Parish records are difficult to find on line. I have limited info on the Beresfords in Church Lawton, Betchton and Sandbach in the 1700's. Now looking for the parents and next generation back of Mary Bate b. Abt 1778 in Astbury or Church Lawton. She married William Beresford in 1797. I also have Richard Beresford b. 1750 as the father of William. I'm sure that many of the Beresfords in the area would all be related. Any help would be very much appreciated :)

Staffordshire completed Look up Requests / Re: Brereton family in Mow Cop, Staffs
« on: Monday 26 April 10 13:36 BST (UK)  »
Hi Giantpanda, You're in luck I'm also related to the James Beresford (b abt 1836) who went to Brisbane Australia and have some info I could share. James Beresford is my Great Grandfather, his first wife was Mary Elizabeth Richards they had nine children. Are you related to this first spouse or the marriage in Soke-on-Trent to Frances Brereton who also had nine children! My Grandfather was the third born child of James & Frances, Henry Beresford (b1890). It's worth noting that the name Beresford can be spelt several different ways. I have Berresford, Berisford and Berrisford recorded, all in the same ancestoral family group.

Hi Minnniec, As mentioned in my earlier post I have the marriage certificate of James Berrisford & Frances Brereton. Her father was entered as Thomas Brereton (Blacksmith) I am also aware that Frances's mother was Emma. Do you have a Birth Cert for Frances? I note that you have the Grandfather of Frances as William Brereton (b 1806) who would be the father of her mother   NOT her father. Hope that makes sense as you mentioned that Frances was illigitimate!  Do you have any more info on the grandfather of Frances married to Mary???. Was Frances death in 1927? do you have a date and place etc or death cert.
