Scotland / Re: Robert Fields Linthwaite Toder

Hi again. Only just joined this site so not sure how it all works yet. This is what I have relating to the Linthwaite Toders:
The middle name of Linthwaite originated I believe around 1770 when Elizabeth Linthwaite married a Thomas Toder. Because Thomas Toder was a bankrupt I suspect that there was some deal done whereby - I am guessing that she was quite wealthy and agreed to marry Thomas and get him out of hock on condition that any future children would have the middle name of Linthwaite, or they used the name out of respect or rememberance I have only followed my direct line but they had 7 children, one of them being Robert Linthwaite, babtised 11/10/1781 at Newark Notts. One of Roberts children was named William Linthwaite It was at this point that the name changed to 'Tudor' either by the sensus recorder hearing the name wrong or just writing it down wrong, or by design. William was an artist and lace designer. One of Williams children was Henry Linthwaite born 12/07/1849 - commercial clerk to a lithographic printer. In 1881 he was living at 44 Raleigh Street, Basford, Nottingham. Henry appears to be the last Linthwaite as his son was named William Henry Tudor born 1887 - I think!
They all lived around the Nottingham and Newark area.
Hope this is of some interest.
I have posted this message to Baltimore girl as well so hope I am not just duplicating things!
