Occupation Interests / Missing ship information
« on: Tuesday 21 February 23 22:12 GMT (UK)  »
Hello!

Posting for a friend (not a member here) who cannot locate any information on an ancestor's ship:

Michael Henderson (b.1774 Wallsend, Northumberland - poss. death 1839 Tynemouth), Seaman, was admitted to the Dreadnought Hospital in 1834. His admission record gave his last ship's name as "Thornton."  Friend hasn't been able to find anything on the ship.

Any thoughts on or hints to locating information about the ship?

Thank you very much!

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / William AXTELL 11 Feb 1611/2 death
« on: Wednesday 07 March 18 22:55 GMT (UK)  »
I've got the date, name, and "was buried" but the other bit stumps me. I think it might be "widowed" or "widower," but NO idea of the next word. Wondering if it might be CoD and in Latin???



Any help very much appreciated!

Bedfordshire / BALDOCK family - Arlesey, Bedfordshire
« on: Saturday 22 July 17 17:52 BST (UK)  »
Hello:

Researching a new family, BALDOCK, and find many in Arlesey in the 1500s-1600s.

Joan BALDOCK (d. 1515) m. William SKIPWITH (d. 1509). Although they were in St Albans, Herts, I believe Joan was of Arlesey or nearby. It is said her father may have been Laurence/Lawrence BALDOCK.

William and Joan appear in the 1572 Visitation of Hertfordshire, however she is noted as BUCKLAND. Other materials note she was BALDOCK.

If anyone has any information on the BALDOCK family in Bedfordshire, I'd very much appreciate hearing from you.

Thank you!

One Name Studies: H to M / MEPPERSHALL family, Bedfordshire
« on: Thursday 20 July 17 21:44 BST (UK)  »
Hello!

I'm just getting acquainted with the MEPPERSHALL family of the place in Bedfordshire.

Obviously, I need to do actual research but I'm finding that:

Joan MEPPERSHALL (1397-1466) was daughter of John De MEPPERSHALL and Katherine BROUGHTON.  (Dates and parents from trees; have not researched).

Joan married Henry GODFREY.  Their daughter, Ellen, married John SKIPWITH.

If all this is correct, Henry and Joan (Meppershall) GODFREY were 15th-g-grandparents of mine.

Love finding new lines to research and am very grateful to the researchers who came before!   

Would appreciate hearing from anyone researching MEPPERSHALL.

Cheers!

Hertfordshire / SKIPWITH family (Kimpton, St Albans)
« on: Tuesday 18 July 17 20:08 BST (UK)  »
Hello:

Researching a 13th-g-grandmother, Joan SKIPWITH (said to be 1474-1518) Kimpton, Herts. She married Robert BARLEY/BARLYE (said to be 1470-1534).

I've found reference to her being the daughter of William and Agnes (Constable) SKIPWITH but nothing is sourced. Too, they are of Lincolnshire.  Dates for William and Agnes vary widely but seem, in most cases, to be too early to be likely parents of Joan.

Any information about SKIPWORTH of Hertfordshire 1400s-1500s will be very much appreciated.

Thank you!
