Batty family, Crickhowell
« on: Tuesday 15 January 19 16:33 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
My family is connected through marriage to the Batty family of Crickhowell. I was given a large archive of photos a few years back, many unidentified and some from Crickhowell and of this family.
I am about to dispose of them, as I do not know anyone in them and they are not my direct family.
If anyone knows of any people that may be connected to this family, I would love to pass these on.
A long shot I know, but my relative by marriage was Mary Ann Batty married name West 1891-1961,who is buried in Crickhowell with her husband Clifford.She had a Brother Frederick H bc1887 and a sister Elizabeth J bc1893.

Not much help I'm afraid, but my ggg grandmother, Lydia Horler Gait (nee Emery) married Joseph Richard Battey (1801-1880) a fishmonger, carrier and sexton of Crickhowell in 1869 (both second marriage). Joseph had a large family by his first wife, but I would think it could be the same family,

There is a person that has put a number of memorials to this family on find a grave.

The surname appears to be Battey. There is a contact link to reach this person, she may love them, or be able to pass on to family.

There is also a private tree on Ancestry that has Battey from Crickhowell.

Mary Ann Battey is my great grandmother, however i cannot find her mother, just census reports where she is living with her family. A possibly result would be if Elizabeth is her mother, giving the ages and siblings ages. But havn´t found anything that could match that.

Thanks for the help Trish, I've now got new lines to trace and record, i have rarely used freereg but it has information i haven't been able to find in other areas.  :I thought Elizabeth was the mother it was just rare in the 1800s not to be married. But it made sense....

Your welcome.
Illegitimacy was not as rare as we would think in the 1800's.
