Coming in late to this - I have a Mahala Warren Lindsell married Joseph Houghton in 1850 in the Chelmsford reg district - but haven't checked any further yet

Consistently in censuses her birth place was recorded as Maldon - but years varied from 1824 - 1831 but mostly consistent with 1829-1831

They had some very distinctive children's names

Manasseh Joseph
Harriet Mahala
Abigail Letitia
Ephraim William
John Francis James
Mary (don't know how she missed out)
Albert Ignatio Francis

Don't know if any of these were traditional family names - thank heavens they didn't trickle down to my generation!!!

Cheers
Sue

Hi Sue
That's a right mixed pot of names, should make tracing your tree easier than usual.
The names are not traditional family names.  The Lindsell/Linsell's in my line usually opted for the norm, especially John and Jonathan.
It would be interesting to find out where they originated.

Thanks Gary - my lot never seem to be related to anybody elses!!

It amused me to think of an ag lab family sitting deciding what to call their children and coming up with such gems - no soap operas or pop or sporting stars in those days to name them after that seem to influence some people today

Once again - something it would be great to go back in time and ask the folk concerned about

Cheers
Sue

Hi Sue
Perhaps we should be dedicating our time to inventing a time machine than researching our roots. Knowing my luck I'm prob descended from "Morlocks".  ;D

I have an Elizabeth Lindsell born Felsted c.1756 who married a Robert Perry also from Felsted on 11.02.1777. Felsted lies to the south of the A120; and this road appears to have been the parish boundary with Rayne, Stebbing and Dunmow to the north. In the 1800s you could have lived in Felsted and your neighbour across the road would be in Stebbing.

Hi mark

Do you have Elizabeth's parents as yet?  I wonder if she came from Stebbing as I have a Jonathan & William Linsell/Lindsell both born in Stebbing in the 1830's.  Jonathan ist marriage in 1758 & he had his kids in Great Dunmow so wouldn't be him but I don't have much on William.

Do you mean the 1730's?
Another website shows Elizabeth's parents as William b.1727 and Elizabeth Brewster b.1731 no further information.
The other site shows about 12 trees with these details; 11 of which will simply be copied from the original tree which may name a source.
I will have a closer look this evening.

I have found my Annie Lindsell married to my Grandfather in 1911, which on the face of it is wonderful but the trouble is we cant make sense of her place of birth!!!!!
It looks like Tundon and findmypast have transcribed it as such but I have never heard of such a place in Essex.
The reference is    RG14PN9998 RG78PN526 RD193 SD1 ED3 SN94  and its Alfred George Tracey of Cottage Place, Brentwood, I would be greatful if someone could take a look and see what you can make of it.
 Many thanks
