If any of the family moved to England I don't know about it all I know is that Albert died in America and so did Stephen as my great great grandfather was their half brother

To try to solve this I had to look at one of Mary`s daughters and follow her.

*******************************************************************
In June 1840 Stephen Churnside of New Castle Delaware applied for Naturalisation

1840 Delaware. New Castle. On same page . No other names apart from head of household

George Churnside. Occupied in agriculture.
 Aged between 30 and 40 plus a female  with same age band. Total 2 people.
Stephen Churnside Occupied in Agriculture
Aged between 50 and 60 plus one female between 10 and 15 and another between 50 and 60. Total 3 people.
Could Stephen be George’s father and the  50 to 60 year old be Agnes,

1860 Delaware . New Castle
Geo Churnside 50  manf implement b England   
Elizabeth Churnside 51   
Mesvina Churnside 17
Gerge N Churnside 12   
Agnes Churnside 85 ? b England

1880
George Churnside 71  b England
Elizabeth Churnside 73   
Agnes Churnside 97 Grandmother (Mother) b England

 Agnes died 12 Nov 1882  aged 98 New Castle, Delaware Find a Grave has her as wife of Stephen.
Stephen Churnside married Agnes Howe 6 March 1809 at Appleby Westmoreland.


George Churnside  died in September  1887 and made a will. He leaves his cottage organ  and music books to his niece Mary Jacoby wife of John F Jacoby . His nephew John N C Churnside gets his violin. His niece Emily Churnside who is living with him is left an annuity.
The Hospital of the Protestant Episcapol Church in Phildalphia  gets $5000 for a free bed to be named “The Elizabeth Moore Churnside Bed”
This will is very interesting  and on Ancestry.

SO if his niece is Mary Frances Denning, then her mother Mary Churnside must be surely be his sister.


Still looking for baptisms in England  but perhaps they were non Conformist.

Will have a look at that will

[wilcoxon]

There is a public tree on Ancestry for the Jacoby family,  it has a lot of photos including one of Mary F.

[blairandsoniataggart]

Will get in contact with them and see what I can unearth. Thank you

[wilcoxon]

Some of the trees on Ancestry have no more than what we have found.
Don't trust other people's research,  do it yourself and then you can be sure.
There are enough Churnside names in the will that are the same family so I think best to start with that.

Agnes appears in the 1850 census with George.
1870 Mary Denning is with her uncle George Churnside and grandmother Agnes.
