Pentland/Pendleton in Seagoe Parish, Drumgor

Thank you for your contribution Joe, one never knows from where the next piece of the jigsaw may come and it is stray pieces like this which can be difficult to find. As it happens I had found George and his sister Elizabeth. Since she, most helpfully, gave her birthplace as Belfast it is likely that George hailed from the same place and although I have yet to connect them with their Irish family they are recorded in my database and one day we'll identify their parents.

George and Mary had eight children, one of whose marriage I have found. They lived in Tower Hamlets until their deaths in the eighteen sixties and seventies and suster Elizabeth died a spinster in Westminster. If you have any furher information about the family, apart from the '41 and '51 censuses it would be most interesting to see it.

Maybe I'm wrong but I recorded that Elizabeth married James Ellis St George in the East about the time she was 25.
Rebecca died 1844 and Rosalie was unmarried in 1861 aged 18.
and that's it.

Thanks Joe, I agree, that's the marriage I have for Elizabeth; I've checked out the 1861 census with that pointer and now also have a marriage for Mary. She wed John Setchel in 1852. Curiously, she and her husband were living apart, although both in Bethnal Green when Mary died in 1878.

Always good to have another Pentland family to track.  I agree that Pantland and Pentland likely refer to the same line.  Any idea who his parents were?

Looking through my very old records I found that Rosalie Pentland married in Leeds WRY Sept Qtr 1865 to possibly Edwin Lambert.

Nearly correct Joboy, she married James Newton. The od thing is that she was living with her father six years later and I could not find her in 1881.

I see the James Pantland from Scarborough and it is interesting that he baptised his children in what appears to have been a Presbyterian chapel. This could indicate Scots ancestry of, for him, fairly recent vintage. I don't see, however, how he is connected to George since he was born in Ireland.

Thanks for tidying her marriage to James Newton at Leeds .. as you probably gather I realised early that her family background was different to my own but I persevered .. as you do in this pursuit.
I did find that the Pantlands from Scarborough were Presbyterian and their children did not seem to carry on with this once they hit London.
No there is not a connection to George .. as I said earlier I did not find he was named Pentand until the 1871 census but I kept logging whatever came along..

"There was one George *Pantland* born Ireland that I noted and followed by census from 1841 to 1871 when the name changed to *Pentland* at 1841 he was 40 and at 1871 he was 72.
He married Mary Keable 1821 and they lived at St George in the East raising several children there.

I may have a brother for George "Pantland".

William J Pentland, bap 7 apr 1833, St George in the East
