Lincolnshire Lookup Requests / Re: Weldon family - Lincolnshire
« on: Friday 09 March 12 10:15 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Karen,

I am descended through Mary Jane Welldon (born 1838) to James and Ave Welldon. She married William Perkins a thatcher from Market Deeping in 1855 at Deeping St James. They had 9 children, including my gt gt grandmother Jane Perkins.

Would love to see what research you have done on the Welldon family.

Hello,

I am a descendent of the William Perkins you mention; son of John Andrew and Mary Perkins (nee True). William was a thatcher and had 9 / 10 children. His daughter Jane is my 2 x great grandmother.

Yes, we appear to have the same ancestry. My ancestor was Charlotte Clements who married Horace Smith. I have yet to get their marriage certificate to confirm their parents.

Charlotte was born in Wichling and the census records i've been sent in the attached links suggest the parents were Joseph and Charlotte.
Have you done much more research on the family?

I've just had a look on the 1881 census and seems to have answered the query i just posted:-

There is a John Crowson living with wife Mary (born Glinton) and granddaughter Mary C Whitfield. Looks like John did indeed marry Mary following the birth of their illigimate daughter. All the research fits for this.
It almosts sounds like a 21st century approach to relationships and families given the birth of the child and marriage of parents there-after.

Thanks again for those who helped me with this result.

Superb!

What a fantastic bit of research.
Thank you ever so much for the help on this. I had always wanted to have a look through the local parish registers for Newborough and Glinton but given my distance from the area i had always intended going at a later date...
Given the proof the research can go on.
It's good to be able to go back on both sides of her family - what a change it makes from all the other unknown / no recorded fathers on birth / marriage certificates. And it's good to see that John Crowson remained present in his daughters life. I will endeavour to find out what happened to him - whether or not he married Mary Robinson or just remained a part of Ann's life.
Thanks again fr your time and help

Thank you for that.
I would think it almost certain that Ann Robinson and Ann Crowson are the same person. Mystery why she uses both names - as you say it may refer to her father. Next step to find a birth certificate / baptism record for Ann.
Thanks for your help.

Thank you for your suggestions.

I had considered the second suggestion; however, i found this to be unlikely as the Ann is shown in the 1861, 81 and 91 censuses as being born in the same year and the same place so i think it is doubtful there was two marriages for Thomas.

Can you provide me with a full transcription of the Thomas and Ann marriage in 1860? Its making me wonder who witnessed the marriage and would be good to have the full transcription for my records.

If the marriage is the right one in 1860 your theory about her being illegitimate would sound plausible.

Do you think Ann's death certificate would help?

I can't find an appropriate Ann Crowson on the 1841 census but there is an Ann Robinson on the 1841 census in Glinton aged 3. She is living with Thomas and Rebecca Robinson who are 50 and 55 respectively. I know the ages were rounded up and down but they seem a lot older than her. Wonder if they are her grandparents? Any further suggestions?
