Stanway IGI batch number?

[littlemak]

Hello Janet
While looking in my files for a totally unrelated surname I came across this marriage that I had made a copy of while over at the Essex Record Office one day I think it might be useful to you.
Stanway marriages - D/P 43/ 1/ 10  1837-1934
August 12th 1855 at St Albrights Parish Church, Stanway, Essex.
William Partner - -of full age  - a bachelor - not sure of his occupation - living in Birch - Fathers name John Partner - labourer
Mary Ann Turkentine - of full age - a spinster - living in Stanway - Fathers name Edward Turkentine -  could be a blacksmith [ its not a very good copy]
witnesses are George Turkentine and Eliza Turkentine.


Hope this helps you.
Carol

Back at reply #14 we had the following;

...
Had a look on the first disk, Colchester Extra Mural parish registers and ther is only one name like Turketine and it is for a boy as follows;
George TURKENTINE  -- Father Edward -- Mother Rachel -- living Lexden --occupation Blacksmith --baptised September 13th 1829 -- born July 22nd -- parish Lexden page 65. ...

Mary Ann seems to be a sister of the above George.

1851
HO107/1782/456/8
Stanway, Essex
TURKENTINE
Edward 58 Head Blacksmith b Suffolk Waldingfield
Rachel 60 wife b Suffolk Waldingfield
Mary Ann 30 daughter unmarried Servant b Suffolk Waldingfield
and a Visitor

1861
RG9/1103/47/3
Birch, Essex
PARTNER
William 48 Head, Grocer and Dealer b Essex Birch
Mary Ann 42 Wife, Grocer's Wife b Suffolk Gt Waldingfield

The possible birth of Edward TURKENTINE is in the IGI - 1792, Great Waldingfield, son of another Edward & Elizabeth COOPER.

In 1841, Edward & Rachel seem to be in Stanway, Essex
HO107/334/24/14
GRAPENTINE (that's how it's transcribed)
Edward 45? (transcribed as 65) Blacksmith
Rachel 45
Edward 20
George 11
all listed as born in the county!

And next door are
GRAPENTINE
William 40 Blacksmith
Charlott 35
Lucy(?) 25
Ann (transcribed as John) 4
all listed as born in the county.

Anyway, it looks as though Edward & Rachel moved from Great Waldingfield, Suffolk to Essex - which points to a link between the Suffolk TURKENTINEs and the Essex TURKENTINEs.  Looking at Edward jnr's birth year, and Mary Ann's birth year in various censuses, it looks as though Edward snr & Rachel moved from Suffolk to Essex some time between the birth of Mary Ann ca 1819 in Suffolk and the birth of George in 1829 in Essex.

This thread started with a question about Louisa A TURKENTINE b 1862
She has been found in the 1871 census (transcribed as TURKEWTINE) with her father George b ca 1830 in Lexden.
George seems likely to be the George quoted at the start of this post.
And this suggests that Mary Ann is Louisa's Aunt.
And that Edward & Rachel are Louisa's Grandparents.

Hi Carol (littlemak),

All congratulations are due to you for your wonderful finds of George TURKENTINE's birth, baptism and parentage (reply #14) and Mary Ann TURKENTINE's marriage to William PARTNER (reply #18).

They were the keys without which further progress wouldn't have been possible.

You are the one who should be taking a very well-deserved bow!!!

Best regards,

JAP
PS: William PARTNER & Mary Ann TURKENTINE were most certainly "of full age" when they married, eh.   

[janglaschu]

Well done folks!  Take a bow!

[littlemak]

Oh gosh I am blushing, it was pure luck that I found the marriage, it was on the same page as one of my Carter marriages and all I did was copy the page for future reference because a Partner married in to another one of my families.
It  was only because I was putting another sheet away that I spotted the name on the page.
And all credit must go to the Essex society for family history for publishing the CD in the first place all I did was look at it.
But thank you both for your kind comments.
Carol

I would be interested to know what the Stanway address was for the Blacksmith as I used to own a property that at one stage in it's long life, was a Smithy.
