Hi Alexander,

Would you mind looking to see if there are any TOMLINSON in South Leverton or Tresswell areas please?

Thanks in advance,

Matt T.

Larkspur - you're in luck, there are a couple in East Markham. I also included the other An(t)cliff(e)s as there are only a handful and they may be related. The returns are from 1664 and 1674, and it looks like Thomas and Ellis were around for both:


1664

EAST MARKHAM             Hearths           Charged
Thomas Antliffe...................i.......................ij s

STURTON CUM FENTON

Matt,

I've checked South Leverton and Treswell, both the 1664 and 1674 returns, and no T(h)omlinsons are there I'm afraid. Unlike with Larkspur's Antcliffes, Tomlinson is quite a common name and there are over 50 Tomlinsons throughout the county - a few too many to type all out. If you know any other villages where they might be, I'd be happy to check those for you. Or better yet, if you know the first name of any of your Tomlinson ancestors alive at this time, that would help narrow it down considerably.

Alexander, many thanks for that Thomas Antcliffe is either my 8x great grandfather or my 7th  great Uncle. I have come across Ellis before but not managed to link him up to my lot.

[Neohet]

Thanks for that Alexander.

As a last request, would you mind checking Askham? I know they were later in Tresswell & South Leverton but possibly moved from Askham, though I don't know when, so it would help to know if there were any in Askham at this time.

Thanks again,

Matt T.

Going to have to disappoint again I'm afraid, Matt. I've checked Askham and there are no Tomlinsons there. Sorry.

And the name Antcliffe survives in the area to this day, or at least recently.

[larkspur]

It certainly does Roger, I have a brother and a nephew and a few cousins......I live in the village where my earliest ancestors (9th gt grandparents) are found in a marriage in 1608.

Thanks for looking anyway.

Kind regards,
Matt T.
