England / Ryle of Macclesfield descendant line.
« on: Thursday 14 February 19 10:11 GMT (UK)  »
My paternal grandmother Doris Hetty RYLE (6 Oct 1903 - 30 Oct 1957) told her husband of 'Sunday Tea' with the Bishop, and referred to him as 'Uncle'.  I only have her father as Henry RYLE (b. 1876) of Romford, Essex.  Doris married my grandfather Henry Charles WITHAM (1901 - 1 November 1986) of Romford, Essex

I presume the 'Bishop' to be Herbert Edward RYLE (25 May 1856 - 20 August 1925), Bishop of Exeter & Winchester, and Dean of Westminster Abbey (the man who buried the Unknown Warrior, and is now interred at his feet), son of John Charles RYLE (10 May 1816 - 10 June 1900), first Anglican Bishop of Liverpool.  JC Ryle was the son of John RYLE, Silk Merchant of Macclesfield.

I would love to establish the blood line, if any, between Henry RYLE and Herbert Edward RYLE. 

There is now nobody surviving in my paternal upline to interview, and I've not been able to trace more on my Gt Grandfather or his upline, to see where it crosses Rev RYLE's line.

Any advice or answers would be gratefully received
