Gloucestershire / Re: Frape, Spratt, Peters
« on: Monday 12 July 10 04:34 BST (UK)  »
Hi Arranroots,
Thanks for your thoughts. The following is my summary of the immigration information:

Aboard the vessel Zemindar aged 22 a labourer, listed as being able to read (but not write)  from Noad, Gloucestershire the son of John and Hannah, father dead mother living in Gloucestershire. Religion C of E paid fare of ? one pound (hard to read)

Birth about 1835.

He was not married as he married out here (well - don't think so). Seems to have travelled alone - no other Frapes on that vessel. Ancestry has origin as Noad, Gloucestershire. A fair bit is known of him once he arrived here but nothing in England and the Census is a little non-definitive. There is a John Frape working as an ag labourer in the 1851 in Horton, Glos and another John Frape 1841 aged just 6 working as an agricultural labourer - no parents just sister Ann with him. Haven't mentally tied that all together yet mainly because the pieces don't seem to form any sort of picture yet.
Any thoughts or help would be valued.   Take care and have a great day.

Family History Beginners Board / Re: Adam Bartley / Hammonds 1812 - 1887 Staffordshire

Hi Allan,

Appreciate your contact and assistance. No Mary nee Fereday died, I believe in 1891 and she and Adam went on the have 9 children. I think the submitted records re birth 1817 are a projection of the information from Census records which are confusing to say the least. The breakthrough was an old post from several years ago on Roots Chat detailing how Adam's son Enoch married under the name Enoch Hammonds Bartley and on the marriage certificate Adam is likewise listed. I and another researcher have battled for months, before this later piece of info, to try to "find" Adam and felt this might have been a breakthrough but lo-and-behold there seems to be no further joy with an Adam Hammond either! Thought I'd try Rootchat to try to flush out anything at all as it is a dead end. Will send for the Tipton registers through LDS for the marriage although there tends to be little other than the couple's names. Any thoughts???

Take care

Family History Beginners Board / Adam Bartley / Hammonds 1812 - 1887 Staffordshire
« on: Sunday 11 July 10 06:57 BST (UK)  »
My introduction to Rootschat yesterday was finding through Google information that my mysterious ancestor Adam Bartley born circa 1815 (+-5)  who married Mary nee Fereday in 1836, Tipton Staffordshire, also may have used the surname Hammonds.  This man is a mystery beyond his marriage although we know much about him after 1836. Does anyone have any info on an Adam Bartley or Hammonds  - his birthplace is listed in many places - Shropshire (Wedlock, Brosley) also Oldbury or Tipton. He is a real mystery to us!!!! Any help would be welcome.  Narissa

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Kendall - London Middlesex - Charles then George Ausgustus Frederick kendall

Hello from Australia,

I am a descendant from a Charles Kendall, a naval man, who married Jane Nethercote and lived in and around the Westminster, Stepney, Mile End, Limehouse area. I have a certain amount of info on him including all Census details and some naval material. I think his father was John Kendall and mother Mary (possibly Brazier???).  Their son George Augustus Frederick Kendall married Mary Ann Tinn, both maritime families and they in turn had George William Kendall, my great-grandfather and a man who led quite an interesting life with two wonderful families - one in New Zealand and later on my grandfather George Bruce Kendall in Australia.

Don't know if our "Kendalls" are in any way linked or if there is any info out there on John Kendall or other descendants of Charles BUT would enjoy contact if you are interested.

Hi from Australia,

I see that you list the Frape family in your surname register. I am a descendant of John Frape. He was from Gloucestershire (is there a place called Noad - the immigration record looked like that??) the son of John Frape - deceased in 1857 when John immigrated -  and Hannah. John did quite well for himself in Australia. I have been able to trace no further back than this. Anyone got any information on a John & Hannah Frape?????  Narissa

Hi Teresa,

Apologies if this turns out to be one of several posts - am having computer problems. Teresa I am descended from Adam Bartley through Priscilla and was delighted to stumble on your post as we (another Priscilla descendant and I) had hit a brick wall which your post went a long way to explain. Would like to get in touch re this family if you could reply. Cheers Narissa
