Berkshire / Thomas Hazell and Martha Hall - children

« on: Sunday 02 January 22 07:39 GMT (UK) »

Hi, I’m hoping someone can help me locate the baptisms for the children of Thomas and Martha Hazell. Sometimes spelt Hazle.
Thomas was born abt 1686, he married Martha Hall 24 sept 1705 in Somerset Keynes, Wiltshire. He was from out of area (Berkshire and a Yeoman) He died Dec 1742 in Little Cox well, Berkshire and is buried there, his wife Martha had died in 1739.
I have the record of his will where he states his childrens names. Two of them I have details for, Susanna bap 25 Aug 1706 in Berkshire, (she married Richard Lewis in 1732) and William bap 10 Dec 1708 in Berkshire (St Mary’s). He married Martha Potter in 1743.
This info came from research done by a cousin many years ago, where he visited various parishes and record places. Sadly since then he hasn’t been able to do anymore research as he shifted to Spain from the UK
Since then I have found the will for Thomas and the other children named are John, Thomas and Alice. It is these 3 that I am finding it hard to find records for.
I am in NZ so finding records online is a bit of a challenge.
Thanks for reading and hopefully someone may have the knowledge I need to sort this family.

Surrey Lookup Requests / Florence Louisa/Louise Bohee

« on: Saturday 27 February 21 01:10 GMT (UK) »

Hi,
I'm just wondering if anyone can help shed light on the birth of a Florence Louisa BOHEE/BOHEY . I cannot find a birth for her or her parents names.
I have found her in 1891 aged 11yr living (listed as niece) with her Uncle Henry Richard BOHEE and his wife Helena and their son Henry Richard aged 5mths. She is supposedly born in Wandsworth.
I have her marrying a Henry Chambers in 1898. Father listed as John Bohee, deceased, but a John Bohee signs as a witness!!
In 1911 I have her with Henry Chambers and their 4 children.
At some point after this she supposedly either lives with or marries Walter William Burrows and has 2 daughters (in 1921 & 1922)
To add to the confusion Walter William Burrows is first married to a Frances Annie Bohee b.1889 and has either 4 or 5 children with her. This is up to 1915.
Frances Annie's parents were John Bohee and Alice Winterman. I am trying to discover how Florence Louisa fits into the Bohee family hence the request to help with her birth. I cant find her in the 1881 census when she would have been about 1yr old.
Frances Bohee's father John, has a Henry for a brother so Im guessing he is the Uncle mentioned in the 1891 census.
The problem being is that I cant find Florence in John & Alice's family.
Also John would have only been 14yr or younger when Florence was born so not likely her father!

I hope I have made myself clear. If not please ask.
Thanks

London and Middlesex / Birth for Isabella Lazenby

« on: Saturday 29 August 20 06:03 BST (UK) »

Hi,
I'm trying to find a birth and possible parents for a Isabella Lazenby. I have her marriage in Chelsea on 28 Sep 1776 at St Anne's Church, Soho, Westminster but I need a birth date to try and work out which of my James Shailer she married.
The two candidates are James Shailer born 1733, baptised Aug 1733 in Berkshire ( this family later moved to Chelsea) and James Shailer born abt 1749, baptised Nov 1750 in Berkshire ( this family also moved to Chelsea). The father of the younger James was brother to the older James born 1733
I hope this makes sense.
Many thanks

Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Tarrant - Jacobs marriage

« on: Monday 24 August 20 06:59 BST (UK) »

Just wondering if anyone can find a marriage for James Tarrant and Dinah Jacobs in possibly Odiham,
Hampshire 1832/33. I have looked on Ancestry and free reg but cant find it. There is possibly one in 1833 on Find my past but I dont have access to that one to view.
Any help would be appreciated or some ideas where else to look. I am in New Zealand!
Thanks

Oxfordshire / Jane Cook Marries Thomas Simons 1776

« on: Saturday 08 August 20 08:26 BST (UK) »

Hi, I am just trying to prove the birth year for Jane Cook who marries Thomas Simons (born 1751) in Kiddington on 20 Oct 1776. Her parents are supposed to be Thomas Cook and Martha Cleaver who married in 1735 and both born about 1715.
The quandry I have is that others have Jane being born in 1736. if this is correct she would have been 40 at the time of her marriage and Thomas Simons her husband would have been 25. Is this likely?? Or could this Jane have died and another child also named Jane born later be the one that married Thomas.
I have looked to the best of my ability but cant see anything to confirm or rule out this.

My line is from Martha and Thomas Cook's daughter Mary born 1750 who marries John Powell.
I also found another daughter Elizabeth born 1747 but I havent followed her line as yet.

I would love your thoughts on this or point me to where else I can look, bearing in mind I am in New Zealand.
Many thanks

Herefordshire / Philip Evans and Ann ? Probably in Eaton Bishop

« on: Sunday 18 August 19 03:24 BST (UK) »

Hi,
I'm looking for the maiden name of Ann who married Phillip Evans on 26 July 1816 at St Nicholas, Hereford. I believe she was a widow, married name Watkins.
If anyone could shed any light on this, her maiden name and her first marriage to an unknown Mr Watkins I would be grateful.
Phillip and Ann had a daughter Elizabeth born 1817 and baptised in Eaton Bishop on 6 April 1817.
I don't know the birth dates of either Phillip or Ann. I have found a tree that gives birth dates as 1750 for Phillip and 1761 for Ann but this would make then about 66 and 55 when Elizabeth is born so I'm not sure about them.!! If these dates are correct then Phillip could have also been widowed before his marriage to Ann.
Many thanks for any help.

Oxfordshire Lookup Requests / John Hazell - Yarnton

« on: Wednesday 14 August 19 05:50 BST (UK) »

Hi, I am trying to sort my tree and I am looking for marriages for John Hazell born 1808 born to Thomas Hazell and Elizabeth (Viner). Baptised 5 June 1808 in Yarnton.

He marries #1 Hannah ?? and has 2 daughters Rebecca, baptised 2 Dec 1832 and Elizabeth baptised 22 Feb 1835 in Yarnton. I have them on the 1841 Census along with his mother Elizabeth. Hannah dies 1850 and he is a widower with daughter Rebecca on 1851 Census.

He marries again about 1852 to a Maria

Not sure about this one
He marries again about 1866 to a Eleanor/Ellen Giles/Perry baptised as natural daughter of a Caroline Giles 23 Feb 1827. Married at St Ebbes
On the 1871 Census he is Cumnor, Berks with wife Ellen and son John aged about 3 yrs ?

Can anyone find these marriages. I'm stumped. All of the above comes from a distant relative who has since lost all of his records when he shifted countries. He tells me his research was done many years ago when he lived in Oxfordshire.

Many thanks in advance

Kent / Burch family connected to Moon family

« on: Sunday 04 August 19 04:53 BST (UK) »

UPDATE: mystery now solved.

Thanks everyone.

Hi,
I have got bit of a problem sorting out a missing generation!!
I have a Mary BURCH born about 1833/34 Rolvenden, Kent with a daughter Mary Ann BURCH born 1851.
On the 1851 Census for Kent, (Mary is 17yr and Mary Ann 4mths) these 2 are listed living with Mary's grandparents a William and Sarah Moon.
I have no idea of Mary's parents or how William and Sarah Moon fit into the family.
I know that Mary later in 1851 marries Hezekiah JAMES and I can follow on down from there.
It is the going backwards that has me stumped.
Hoping someone here can help. Many thanks.
