Peet's, Cull's, Price's etc

These are my family interests in Hertfordshire. Mostly around the Hertford, Hertingfordbury area. Although I grew  up in Hemel Hempstead I am far away now!

Hi Melanie,

Whilst making a search of the 1851 census for Hertingfordbury, I ran across the families of Francis & Hannah Cull and William & Elizabeth Price.  I assume you already have the details - if not I will send them on to you.

Best wishes from sunny Hertfordshire.

Peter.

Oh to be where you are!! I grew up in Hemel Hempstead!!

I would love the details please and thank-you from Sunny Vancouver Island!

Hi Melanie,

Greetings from sunny Hertfordshire.

Here are the details of the two families that I found in the 1851 census for Hertingfordbury.

Francis Cull  Head  M  47  (?) Miller  Bn.Passingham, Northants
Hannah Cull  Wife  M  49   Bn.Calverton,Bucks
Frederick Cull  Son  U  24  Journeyman Carpenter,Calverton
Joseph Cull  Son  U  22  Journeyman Stone Mason Hertingfordbury
Francis Cull  Son  U  18 Whatling Ltd (?) Apprentice H'bury
Henry Cull  Son  U  16  Blacksmith Apprentice  H'bury
Thomas Cull  Son  U  13  Ag.Lab  H'bury

(The villages of Passingham and Calverton virtually join and are near Stony Stratford.)

William  Price  Head  M  36  Shoemaker Bn.London,Middx
Elizabeth Price  M  37  Hertford, Herts
Ann Price  Dau  U  12  Hertingfordbury.

I have taken these two families a step further, for example the Cull's are still at Hertingfordbury in 1881 whereas the Prices are at Essendon.     I am not sure how much you already know of these families but if you think I may be able to help in any way, please do not hesitate to ask.

Kind regards   ...   Peter of Potters Bar

Hi Melanie from not so sunny Nottingham.

I don't suppose any of your Peet's made it to Nottingham or Newark on Trent did they??

Regards

Steve

[Melaniejoy]

No sorry Steve I am almost frustrated by how many Peets there are up there!! Mine pretty much from the Home Counties!

Peter, thank-you. re the Culls, I have quite alot of info but not as far back as you have gone for this family. Joseph the son is my gggrandfather, this family also joined the Peets and Prices thus my mothers cousins were Price and Cull and my mother Peet.

Edgar Cull one of my Grandfathers cousins made a huge family tree so my info is great from Francis and Hannah on down, but I have never managed to find out Hannahs family name!
Thank-you again for any info you have found or might find!! Melanie
