One Name Studies: A to G / Gardiners need confirmation
« on: Monday 14 June 21 20:29 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to research the Gardiner family who lived principally in Minchinhampton, Daylesford and Guiting Grange or Twining of Gloucestershire in the 1600s and 1700s.
This is what I know but need confirmed.
William Gardiner 1606 1632 married Ann Hastings daughter of Simon Hastings of Daylesford
William (son of William) 1632 1673 of Daylesford and Guiting Grange married Barbara Horde of Guiting Grange and Daylesford
William (son of William) 1655 1717 of Twining and Daylesford married Priscilla Freeman and had William Priscilla Thomas Christopher George and Harrye
My theory is one of these sons above is related to Christopher Gardiner below.
Christopher Gardiner of Minchinhampton and Elizabeth (last name unknown) had a daughter called Elizabeth who married Daniel Chance in 1783 in Minchinhampton.
Can anyone help?

Gloucestershire Lookup Requests / Elizabeth Chance nee Gardiner
« on: Monday 14 June 21 19:16 BST (UK)  »
Searching for Elizabeth Gardiner daughter of Christopher and Elizabeth Gardiner of Minchinhampton. She married Daniel Chance 6 Nov 1783 in Minchinhampton. I need to know when and where she was born and when and where she died. Can anyone help please? Have tried myself without success.
I need to know who her Gardiner ancestors were in the 1700s and 1600s. She is supposedly related to William Gardiner 1606 1632 who married Anne Hastings daughter of Simon Hastings of Daylesford on 2 Oct 1624. Thank you

Warwickshire / Matthew Parsons Houghton 1818-1884 My great x2 Grandfather
« on: Thursday 20 April 17 23:33 BST (UK)  »
This man moved all over the place.
he was born in Birmingham Warwickshire 21 Dec 1818
baptised in St. Thomas Dudley Worcestershire 8 Jun 1832
married Ann Baker St. Pauls Bunhill Row, Finsbury, London 11 Nov 1843
had Ada (my great grandmother), Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Ellen Maria, Dudley John, Elizabeth Ruth, Ruth and Agnes in many different cities and counties of England and Wales.
and died in Pantasaph, Holywell, Flint in Wales 18 Oct 1884.
I need someone to confirm he was also in the USA in New York I believe and had more children there.
I need to know who his father and mother were and how far back the Houghton line can be traced.
Can anyone find the exact date of birth for Ada whose middle name was Mary I believe.
My grandmother always said Ada was a descendant of the Blessed John Houghton a monk and one of the forty martyrs who was executed for not signing Henry VIII Act of Supremacy but that who 300 years earlier in the 1530s. I realise as a monk she was not a direct descendant.

Sussex / Jesse Watts 1790c - 1825 My Great x3 Grandfather
« on: Monday 17 April 17 22:33 BST (UK)  »
What I know:
Jesse Watts married Sarah Ludby 27 June 1810 in Petworth Sussex and was buried 22 July 1825 in Petworth Sussex. Jesse and Sarah had 8 children. My Great x2 Grandfather Henry christened 26 June 1811 was the oldest child.
What I don´t know:
I don´t know the exact date of birth or christening of Jesse or where this took place. Many years ago back in about the year 2000 an expert on this site told me that a Jesse Watts born in Colerne Wiltshire to a Daniel and Jane Watts (as stated by someone on Family Search) could not have been the same Jesse Watts who was married to Sarah Ludby as he was still alive after 1825 and living in Wiltshire. There is also a probable connection to a Thomas and Anne Watts living in Funtington Sussex. Can anyone help me?
