Dear Whipby,

I am sure you are on the right track.  I have a son Joseph born to John Butler and Rosamunde Halton in 1782, so I am sure this is the right family.   The information I have is:

John Butler and Rosamund Halton (from the IGI) were married at St. Mary's, Sutton in Ashfield on 16th May, 1780, and children baptised at the Independent Congregation Chapel in sutton in Ashfield are:

Joseph b. 25th July, 1782, baptised 17th December
1787
Sarah, b. 25th June, 1784 - bap. 17th Dec. 1787
John, b. 28th June, 1786, bap. 17th December, 1787

From the NHFS Burial Index - Sutton in Ashfield, Rosamund Butler - wife of John Butler, buried 15th July, 1806

Samuel Butler (m. gt.gt.grandfather) born 1798 died in Grantham in 1855.

Other children of John Butler and Rosamund Halton are:

James - 1791
Anne - 1800
Nelly - 1789
Rosamund - 1793 
Susannah - 1796
Samuel - 1798
William - 1805

Samuel Butler married Martha Bullimore in Grantham in 1823.  They were living in Melton Mowbray in the 1841 census and at Grantham in the 1851 census. 

Their daughter Sarah Anne married John Reece in Grantham in 1856 , then moved to Scotland.  Sarah Anne Butler died in Fort William in 1883.  They were my gt.grandparents.  (I was born in fort William before migrating with my family to Tasmania in 1952).

Let me know if all this makes sense! and good luck.

England / Boyd/Tait/Reece families
« on: Saturday 17 July 10 06:36 BST (UK)  »
Looking for any descendents of Charlotte M. Boyd - possibly of London- born in Fort William Scotland around 1895.  Parents are Martha Reece and William Boyd.  Believe she had a daughter Dorothy (unknown surname).  The aunt of charlotte Boyd is Sarah Reece who married Archibald Tait, furrier and ladies tailor of London.  Any of these names familiar?

Hi All,

My mistake.  I am researching John Greenshields (and not John Greenhill as typed) and Martha Lindsay who were married on 29th September, 1893 in the district of Old Monkland.

So sorry for the inconvenience.

Lanarkshire / Greenshields research
« on: Friday 04 June 10 07:23 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I am interested in finding the family of John Greenhill and Martha Lindsay who were married  on 29th September, 1893 at Netherhouse. 

Parents of John:    George Greenshields - Check weighman
                              Mary  Greenshields (nee Galloway)

Children were:

Martha
Mary
George
Maggie
Sarah
John


Their address according to the 1901 census was 20 Bogside Row in the parish ward of North Baillieston in the district of Bargeddie, Old Monkland.
I am related through Martha Lindsay.  Her parents are my great-grandparents - their daughter Margaret was my grandmother.  Would love to hear if anyone is researching this family.
