[avm228]

Tilly, see also this old Rootsweb message re the Frohock family - doesn't mention William among the children of Thomas Frohock and Mary Pike, but may provide avenues for going further back.

Hello Anna

Again - thank you!!

I'm getting much more info than I thought possible - I think my aunt will be VERY pleased!!

Going to have a look at the message you told me about straight away.

Hello Everyone!!

Just to let you know that I have telephoned my aunt - tried to be discreet and told her I hadn't found out anything at all about her family - so she told me everything again!!

Apparently she doesn't know the Christian names of Kate's parents..........so I think we can take it that you are right about William and Elizabeth!!!

Kate had two sisters - Annie and "Lizzie" (I think this must be Mary, but apparently she was known as Auntie Lizzie!).  Kate and Mary (I think she said Mary) married the two Wooldridge brothers, Charles and GEORGE!  Charles and Kate Evelina Wooldridge had a daughter Ina Muriel, who married a John Leonard Jordan - and they had my Aunt!  John Jordan's father was Arthur, maybe from Cirencester, his father maybe from Wales.

Couldn't ask much more without it becoming suspicious...............but also found out that Kate's parents owned a brewery and a farm.

I've had a look at the site Anna gave me on Rootsweb - very interesting!

I am going to have to print all this off and have a read through - probably with a glass of wine to help me concentrate.

Bye for now - and thanks again

Good stuff! It looks as though Mary was in fact Mary Elizabeth, so "Lizzie" does make sense.

Willingham parish register baptisms 1793-1874 have been extracted onto the BVRI.

There are no baptisms of any children of William and Elizabeth, which is unfortunate.

William Frohock, father Thomas, married Elizabeth Tibbitt, father William, on 2 Oct 1761 at Willingham

William Frohock, son of Thomas and Mary, was baptised on 1 Jan 1837, along with his sisters Eliza and Jemima, so it looks as though a couple if not all were late baptisms**. There were earlier children of Thomas and Mary if you want them - just shout.

Thomas Frohock married Mary Pyke at Willingham on 29 March 1814 (IGI).  Thomas Frohock, son of Thomas and Alice, was baptised on 19 Jan 1794 - which ties in with the Thomas you found in 1871 aged 77. The IGI has a marriage of Thomas Frohock and Alice Wayman on 3 Sept 1786 at Willingham

** His age in 1841 was 6 so he seems to have born 1834/5

Hello David and Anna

I can't keep up with you - you're SO quick!

I'm trying to fill it in on my ancestry tree as fast as the info comes in....... - haven't got around to getting that glass of wine yet


I keep saying "thank you" but I really mean it - this is going to make one eldery lady very happy.

Do you want the female lines looked at as well eg Pyke, Wayman etc?

[tilly56]

Yes please - I would be grateful for anything and everything!  I had a look at the site you told me about -(I've just sent the owner a message) - and have printed off everything I found on there - but if you know any else..................

Do you have any idea where I could find the origins of the name Frohock?

Really am going to get that glass of wine now!  Cheers

Tilly
