Lincolnshire / Re: Mackinder
« on: Wednesday 11 May 22 19:50 BST (UK)  »
Thanks again Machis for your reply.

I've just returned from Lincoln which is about an hours drive from where I live. Back in the early 1990's I spent some time visiting many of the churches and villages associated with the Mackinder's, taking photos and recording any gravestones I found.

 I also spent time in the archives trawling through the registers, it's so much easier now with all the online resources but somehow not quite as much fun !

Good luck with your research.

Thanks Machis,
                       I was thinking James may have been buried at Branston in 1664, but his father was another James. The Washingborough burial for Jacob looks right, was there a Will/admin for him in 1671?.

I descend from the same line as you, down through the 1626 Charles, my family were in Lincs until the 1850's when they moved to Sheffield and set up a Steel works business.

Incidentally I have an old fusee pocket watch movement engraved Wm Mackinder Spilsby, though I don't believe he was my direct ancestor.

Hi,
      I've been reading this thread with interest as my line of descent is also through James Mackinder who married Jone Patchette at Canwick in 1624.
 Please does anyone know when and where this James died. Thanks.

Leicestershire / Re: Burial Records Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire 1884 to 1911

There's a picture of the stone dedicated to the 11 who were reburied on the fb page Memories of Melton Mowbray.
In the library they have old Melton Times papers on microfilm, so maybe you could check the November 1987 issues to see if anything is mentioned.

                                   Good luck,
                                      Pete.

Hi,
     I live in Melton and remember the gravestones which were behind the old Sage Cross Methodist Church. I'm not sure what happened to the stones when the burials were removed, my dad would have known as he was on the Church committee at that time.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Re: Naman family
« on: Wednesday 14 April 21 16:49 BST (UK)  »
Hi again Jane !,
                My step grandma Rosina (known as Daisy in the family) married firstly Edward Pearce in 1915 then my grandad William Rogers in 1943.

                Rosina's dad was Edward William Naman who was in the shoe/boot trade as I think a lot of the family were back then and I think Edwards brother was your John Harvey Naman- do you think that's right ?.

                It seems that John and Edwards father was another John Harvey Naman who according to the census was born in Greenwich. I've been having a bit of a job trying to work him out as he married twice and names his father as Henry Harvey, Gentleman on one entry and his mother as Ellen Naman on the other.

                 That's pretty much where I am stuck at the moment, maybe you have managed to get further back ?.

                  Anyway, I have quite a few nice bits and bobs that have been handed down through the family including a couple of  photos of Edward, your John Harvey Naman's brother as well as photos of Rosina, Lily and Roland. 

                  I remember Lily and Roland from when I was young, Roland was blinded in ww1 but became a Publican with his wife !, he also met King George vi and sang in choirs so he didn't let his disability hold him back.

                   It's great to find someone else  interested in  the family history as neither Roland or Lily have any surviving children so there don't seem to be many Naman's around, unless you know different !!.......

                                        All the best,
                                           Pete Rogers.

Thanks goldie61 and GR2 for your replies. I think you're probably right GR2, with "Rufo".

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / ---- ? Rogers.
« on: Saturday 09 May 20 22:40 BST (UK)  »
Hi all,
                   Please can anyone help to read the forename of Mr Rogers mentioned in the Probate of this Will.
                   It looks to be a Latin abbreviation.
                                                     Thanks,
                                                        Pete.
