COURTNAGE family, Lurgashall/Bepon

[Anna_C]

Sorry for the very long absence - all family research has been on hold this year as life has been steaming along and I've been running to keep up! (Also had to change email address due to hacking, so haven't been receiving notifications  )

It's been so long since I looked at any of this that I'll need to dig out all my notes again ; looking forward to sorting through and talking again soon.

Hi Bruce

Welcome to Rootschat

Are you sure you've posted on the right thread? I can't see a mention of Samuel Singleton here - the only one showing on Rootschat is on the Lancashire look-up board. Your link doesn't lead anywhere useful so I'm rather puzzled

Hi all,

My search for William Frederick Courtnage has caused no end of problems but finally I think I have cracked it for the following reasons;
His marriage certificate states;
Name = William Frederick Courtnage age age 28 making his DOB around 1881
Fathers name = William Courtnage - Deceased - Farm Labourer
His birth certificate states;
Name = Frederick William Courtnage - born 30th Mar 1877
Fathers name = William Courtnadge - Deceased - Farm Labourer
Now the dates dont exactly match up and the spelling of the surname is slightly different - however a William Cortnage born 1877 also appears in the Chertsey Poor Law Union records for the 1881 census, whos mother is listed as Emily. Emily also appears as his mother on the birth cert I have. So I am of the opinion I have now found the correct WF or FW Courtnage.

I also have a death cert for a William Frederick (was spealt Courtnadge but replaced with) Courtnage. Lived in a road called the Ponds in Weybridge but death cert district is Midhurst & Petworth. So again I think there are strong ties between my Courtnage tree and those of Sussex. I believe he was probably visiting family in the area as he dies in Whitehanger.

I think my tree goes something like this;
William Courtnage born approx 1770ish
James Courtnage born 1800
William Courtnage born 1826
Frederick William Courtnage born 1877
Frank Reginald Courtnage born 1919

Any thoughts on this are much appreciated.

Hi, can anyone help me please.
My search on the Courtnage clan has taken many twists and turns but I still need some help on the following;
My 3rd times ggf James Courtnage b1802 - married Sarah Crawt b1800. But as of yet I have not been able to confirm if he had any sibblings. I am also confused as to whom his parents and grand parents where. Currently I have;
James b1802, his father John b1759, his father John  b1726 - it has been suggested that James b1802 father was William and his gf was also William.

I am also confused about Daniel b1826 as I have his father as Henry b1806 - could it be that Daniels father is Henry b1798 and his mother was Charlotte Hounsome?

Any help is much appreciated.

Hi again...I got my last message wrong;

I have a Daniel Courtnage b1826 - his father Henry b 1806, Henrys father born 1798, this is the bit I can not sort out.
