Family History Beginners Board / Syrett Family of Mersea Essex
« on: Friday 28 December 18 18:37 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, I'm trying to trace the parents of Maria Syrett who was born in 1818, married a William Grainger from Gosport, Hants in the mid 1830s and died in Colchester in 1879. I understand that the Syretts were an old East Coast family, but Maria's birth details and the names of her parents have alluded me. Can anyone assist please? Many thanks.

Thanks so far for your help.

I have Francis pretty well mapped out. It's his parents and siblings who have been a struggle. In the 1841 census mentioned by you - Jamjar - we have both an Emily and a Jane of the right dates, no parents and the addition of a Charlotte, Selina and Agnes. The location is in roughly the right area, as is Bryanston Sq., albeit in a different direction from where the family resided in 1851.

Taking Francis's birth certificate and the 1851 census as reference points, the father John died between 1843 and 1851, probably nearer 1843 as there are no children named after Francis. There is another probable daughter - Mary-Ann - who was born on 06-Mar 1837 and baptised at Saint Mary-St Marylebone Road,St Marylebone,London,England.

Compliments of the Season.

Apologies 1851 census. With her are her children Emily Mills (25), Jane Mills (10) and Francis Mills (8).

Montgomeryshire / Mary Ann Powell

I'm trying to trace the birth date and birth location of my 3rd Great Grandmother, Ann Marie Powell. she is shown in the 1851 census as having been born in Montgomeryshire in 1806/7, being the widow of John Mills. Is anyone aware of which town/village Mary Ann may may have been born? I'm also interested in tracking down her marriage to my 3rd Great Grandfather, if anyone has any pointers.

Many thanks.
