WARNER

[findem]

Anyone researching the Essex Warner name?

My focus at the moment is around the Great Wakering, Leigh on Sea and Southend areas but I would be interested in hearing from anyone researching the Warner name.

I'm looking for a Robert Warner (born circa 1744) who married Mary Cornwall in 1769 at Great Wakering.  Robert & Mary moved to Sandon where I found nine children baptised 1772 to 1790, no children named Robert or Mary were found.  I have searched Gt Wakering & Sandon but no Robert Warner (senior) found.

Hi Findem,
               My Warners are all from the Dunmow- Hatfield Broad Oak area, if you have any from that area we may be able to help each other,
                               Regards

Hi Alistair,
My Warner line is one of only a few that I haven't made much headway with, I have only found two Warner families at the moment.  Here is a brief outline of my Warner line: -
Robert Warner married Mary Cornwall 1769 Gt Wakering.
Their son John married Elizabeth Sewell 1803 at Sandon.
John & Elizabeth's daughter Sarah married John Card 1836 at Sandon.

That unfortunately is as far as I go, I am hoping to check Leigh on Sea in the near future, I understand some Warners were spotted there around the 1720s.

I'll keep you in mind should my research head towards Dunmow or HBO areas.
What Warner name and date are you looking for at the moment?

Regards

Hi Findem,
                  I can safely go back to Joseph Warner b.1819 who married Mary Tyler in 1839 at Great Dunmow, further back there are too many John Warner's to be sure!
                              Regards

Hi Alistair,
Have you looked in the Takeley PRs for Warners?  There are quite a few and date from 1692 to 1794, including a John baptised 24 Sept 1774.  Also noted was the marriage of John Warner to Ann Cavill 17 Nov 1818.  In case you haven't checked Takeley there is a link to them on the first page that comes up on the Essex board.   Takeley is close to the HBO, Gt Dunmow area so it could be useful sometime.
Regards.

Hi Findem,
             Many thanks for the tip on Takeley , it certainly helped, some of my Warners were from Hatfield Broad Oak, I have yet to tie them up but you have been a great help. Now if someone could only do a similar job with Great Dunmow Church records !
                                     Regards and Many Thanks,
                                     Alistair

Hi Alistair,
It appears that the Takeley PR transcriber may have omitted some entries, someone who has some Takeley fiche found a few Fewells, spelt ffewell, that the transcriber had missed.  Whether or not he missed any from other surnames is not known but I suppose as with all transcriptions it's best to follow up by checking the originals/fiche.

My 5 x great grandmother is a Warner from Leigh on Sea. I have information from parish registers in late 1700s, If anyone has a connection to Leigh - which I research all the families from, I would be happy to exchange information.

Hi Palmtree,
If you get back to the early 1700s and come across a Robert Warner born circa 1744 I would be grateful for the info. 

I can't say for sure I have a connection to Leigh on Sea but as I mentioned in my original post on this subject, Robert & Mary married at Gt Wakering which is close to Leigh on Sea.
 
Robert & Mary Warner named sons William, John, James & Henry so I would also be intested in any of those names born say 1700 to 1750, I would expect that Robert's father's name if not Robert, would be one of those four christian names.  I would also expect a brother or two to have those names. 

I am happy to share my Warner info on Robert & Mary's descendants.

Come to think of it I do have a slight connection to Leigh on Sea, an aunt, uncle and cousin lived there for a while.
