Derbyshire / Re: POYSER marriage Alfreton 1821

Hello,
I'm trying to trace info about my relative Ann Poys/zer born 1809 in Wirksworth, not sure if there is a connection?

Hello again,
A Richard Hannam married Ann Richardson on 9th June 1784 at St Leonards Shoreditch, London, BUT I can not say that I'm 100% certain this is "our" Richard Hannam, as I have no more details, but it's a strong possibility.
I've contacted my cousin today, I'll let you know what info she has when I hear back from her.

Just to say thanks for this further info.
I think that Richard Hannam (snr) may have married Ann Richardson in 1784, but I'm going to re-check this.
Yes please - to both your offers, the diary transcription and the Fitzwilliam family tree. My email is goldfishnot@yahoo.co.uk
I had noticed some House of Lords stuff when I did a general google search a few months ago, before I had made a connection to Richard Hannam, I'll  have to revisit it now.
I'm also going to contact my cousin who did a comprehensive family tree for the Hannam's many years ago (pre internet etc) I think that there was a suggestion (this may be a family urban myth) that she had traced the Hannam's back to one who sailed with Sir Francis Drake. It sounds implausible, but you never know!

Hello again,
Thanks for all this information. Just to clarify, yes Elizabeth Dunk was definately from Clarborough near Retford (I worded it badly before) but for some reason she married Richard Fitzwilliam Hannam in Sheffield in 1867.  I visited Clarborough recently and found 2 Dunk graves in the churchyard, but one was quite recent, the other was illegible.
I'm keen to hear more about the Hannam connection in London, as I've reached a bit of a dead end with Richard Hannam senior.  Thanks for the info about the Fitzwilliams (John and William), this has really helped me link them into a pedigree that I stumbled across, not sure how reliable it is.  You may already know about it, but in case you don't and want to check it out here is the link;

I'm also waiting to hear back from the local studies department in Lincolnshire, as they mentioned a pedigree for the Fitzwilliams of Clixby, but I'm guessing it will be the same one.
Unfortunately I have no photos or documents, unlike you.  I have a few relatively recent ones of my immediate family.
Here is all the information I have regarding Richard Fitzwilliam Hannam's descendants;
Ada born 1864
Frederick H born 1867
Samuel F born 1869
John R born 1871
Tom born 1876
Sarah born 1878
Charles R born 1865, being my great grandfather, who married Frances Cobb (sutton cum lound) in 1890.
To be honest, I'll have to check with my Dad about his Father and siblings, as I've been working backwards only!

Hello, that's really interesting - I'm descended from Richard Fitzwilliam Hannam born in 1823 (Retford), who married Elizabeth Dunk, from Clarborough in Sheffield in 1867(after they already had 2 children 4 others followed to my knowledge) His son, Charles Richardson Hannam (b.1865 Retford) then married Frances Cobb from Sutton Cum Lound and my paternal grandfather, John Richardson Hannam was one of the resultant children.
Could you let me know which of the 11 children of Richard Hannam and Frances Mary Fitzwilliam I'm missing?
I know about Charles (b 1821) Richard F itzwilliam - my relative (b 1823) Thomas (b 1824) Frances Mary (b 1826) Vincent H (b 1829) Augustus Frederick (1830) your relative, Charlotte A (b 1832) John R (b 1834) and Eliza (b 1836), who is listed on the 1871 census as "weak intellect from birth" and as "imbecile" on the 1881 census.
Also, I've got stuck at Charles Fitzwilliam(Frances Mary fizwilliam's great grandfather) who married Frances (Mrs Chaplin) in 1728, I can not find his birth, although I do have a tantalising copy of a pedigree of the Fitzwilliams of Clixby with a "possible" for his father.
All information gratefully received!

Hello, I'm only able to tell you about the daughter of Mary Benton and Charles Samuel Fitzwilliam - Frances Mary Fitzwilliam.  Frances married my ancestor Richard Hannam on 15/2/1820, they moved to East Retford after 1841, where he practiced as a solicitor and they produced at least 9 children that I know of.
I'll add Mary Benton's name to my family tree!

Hello, I think that you've helped me more than I can help you!
Frances Mary Fitzwilliam married Richard Hannam of Middlesex on 15/2/1820.  After a while they settled in East Retford, where Richard practiced as a solicitor and they produced at least 9 children that I know of. Let me know if you want any more info about them.
