Shropshire / Re: Guys of Shropshire
« on: Tuesday 21 January 14 14:00 GMT (UK)  »
I have  Mary Guy married a John Hornblower, early 1800's. I thisnk she was from the Wombridge area, they later lived in Stirchley & Dawley. She re-married at St Luke's Dawley Parva after his death. I think her father was Charles, but not 100% as away from my records.

Further to above post, the watch was made at Oakgate (now a plant nursery) at Ellerdine Heath,

You  might be interested to know that my ancestors were Chetwoods/Chatwoods of Ellerdine Heath, neighbours of the Wellings', and descendants of a lateral ancestor (now in USA) have a William Wellings watch (not working these days) that was a parting gift for the Chetwood family who emigrated in 1849!

London and Middlesex / John Harrison, Chronometer Maker

Does anyone know how Alice Harrison linked with John Harrison, famous chronometer maker (originally from Yorkshire)? Alice married a Frodsham who worked with John Harrison.

There were 3 'Rows' at Hinkshay - Ladies Row (also known as New Row), Double Row & Single Row.

Many of my ancestors lived there & my Nan was the last person to leave Ladies Row before their demolition - I spent many hours there as a child/teenager.

Stirchley was a very short walk from Hinkshay (Hinkshay today is on the edge of the Telford Town park) and Dawley.

The Bailey families, where living in Old Park, probably would be found in the registers of St Leonard's, Malinslee (from 1832).

Check out the parish registers for St Leonard's, Malinslee - the Baughs were using that church in the 1800's. It was the likely parish church for the Dark Lane area.

Hi, just had a thought - if they were in the Old park area of Dawley, try the registers of St Leonards Church, Malinslee.
 I once researched for a friend the Baughs in that area and they were largely at St Leonards.
