Derbyshire / Re: Robert Tomlinson 1814 of Butterley - update
« on: Sunday 29 November 20 21:19 GMT (UK) »
In a previous post on this topic, I suggested I favoured the Mary Ann Tomlinson born 29 Jun 1793, father Isaac Tomlinson, as the mother of my Robert Tomlinson who was bapt at Pentrich on the 10th Jun 1820.
As anticipated, the records show that Robert was the illegit son of Mary Tomlinson of Butterley Park.
I followed up on Isaac Tomlinson who was buried at Pentrich in Jan 1838, at the age of 99. Supporting information shows that the informant of his death was his grand-daughter Elizabeth Johnson. This would be the Elizabeth Johnson who married Joseph Peach later that year at Shirland.
I've attached a pdf showing how the various pieces of evidence I've collected relate to each other. Taking all this into account, I'm now satisfied that Mary Ann Tomlinson born 1793 is my 3xgreat grandmother, and that Isaac Tomlinson, born abt 1740, is my 4xgreat grandfather.
Many thanks for your support in unravelling this puzzle.
Of course, that only opens up other questions!
