John Antrobus
« on: Sunday 12 July 15 09:15 BST (UK) »
Hi,  Can anyone help with ANY information regarding John Antrobus, (spelt Anbrokes in 1851 census).
I think he was born 1819c, married 1843 in St Neots.

Hi,
Welcome to RootsChat.
I can confirm the marriage of John ANTROBUS with the following General Records Office (GRO) reference: 1843 St Neot's, Volume 14, Page 316, June Quarter.
https://familysearch.org/search reveals a number of christenings which could be any one of his parents.
My advice is to purchase a copy of the marriage certificate from GRO noting that John's wife is unknown at this stage and will be revealed on receipt of the marriage certificate, and then you will be able to identify John's siblings on the family search website.
Good hunting.

Hello,

Your previous thread http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=664417.9 has his marriage to Rhoda Elizabeth Furnace and you have him in 1851 born Liverpool.
Is this information still relevant?

Regards
Heywood

John Antrobus bp.3/4/1818 St. Nicholas, Liverpool, son of John (a Stone Mason) and Mary Ann.

They appear to have had an earlier son John bp.11/9/1814 who must have died.

Looking at census and online trees (some of which seem to be somewhat wrong I feel) appears that John Antrobus senior married a Mary Ann Massey 11/5/1813 St. Elphin, Warrington, Lancashire and children as follows:

Sarah bc.1814/5 Liverpool
John bp.11/9/1814 St. Nicholas, Liverpool(died)
John bp.3/4/1818           ditto
William bp.21/5/1820      ditto
Elizabeth bp.4/9/1824 Warrington, Lancashire
Thomas bc.1826 Halton, Cheshire
Samuel bc.1828       ditto
Ann bp.22/5/1831 Runcorn, Cheshire )
James bp.18/5/1834    ditto              ) said to have been born in Halton
Francis bp.9/3/1837     ditto              )

In 1851 for some reason (perhaps hard times) John senior and sons Samuel and Francis are shown as Boatmen!   1861 census John senior widowed and once again a Stone Mason and living with married daughter Sarah.

The marriage certificate of John in 1843 will prove if father is shown as John Antrobus, stone mason.

1861 census states John senior born in Kenyon, Lancashire (Kenyon at junction of Bolton and Leigh railway) so the baptism of a John Antrobus 28/1/1792 Leigh, Lancashire, son of Thomas and Ellen, could well be him.

Hi,  Thanks to all, especially Annette, who has taken me back one more step (I think !!)
I had John Antrobus, married to Rhoda in 1843 in St Neots, but didn't know where born. Now I have a further step back and can search from there.
Many thanks and any further info is appreciated.

Hi - Antrobus is a well known name here in Liverpool ...I have just checked on
http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/Search/indexp.html
all events
antrobus
search
the first Liverpool record on that site is 1699 in Tarbock,Huyton - which was Lancashire but is now in Liverpool
you may be able to go backwards with John Antrobus and Mary Ann Massey on that site.

Thanks Gartonite,
Realise Antrobus is not unusual in Liverpool area. I originally came from Liverpool myself.
Will go through available info and see if any of it relates to my ancestors. Found that G.G.G.Grandfather, John married Mary Ann Massey in Warrington in 1813, so looking at going back further if possible.

A word of caution.

You need the 1843 Marriage Cert before going back Further as you may be following the wrong Family line.

Just received copy of Marriage Certificate of John Antrobus to Rhoda Elizabeth Furnace on 4 June, 1843 at St Neots.
It states his father was William Antrobus, wheelwright.
Can anyone help further?
