Interesting marriage?
« on: Tuesday 23 January 24 19:59 GMT (UK) »
Looking at my tree … again….. and these ancestors are possibilities.

I have Elizabeth Chetwynd b: 1732
Hints suggest her father is Sidney Chetwynd b:1708 married to Mary Colledge Shilton b:1707

I also have Richard Chetwynd b: 1743 but no hints for him.

When I look at the family hints for it suggests that she had a son and daughter - Richard and Elizabeth.

Richard’s granddaughter Phoebe Chetwynd b: 1800 marries Elizabeth’s great grandson Charles Blower b: 1802

They all live around Atherstone / Kingsbury areas in Warwickshire

This is based on Ancestry hints…

Hi
I've had a look at the first one Elizabeth Chetwynd and I think they are right.
Elizabeth marries in 1751 to Joseph Blower at Merevale .
Her possible parents marry at the same parish 3 Oct 1729.
They have a possible 3 children
Elizabeth 1.7.1731 Kingsbury
Edward 15 Feb 1733 Kingsbury
William 18 March 1736 s of ---- and Mary at Kingsbury.
Sydney a farmer is buried 22.10.1739 Kinsbury
All 3 children seem tomarry at Merevale

Edward 10.9.1759 to Ann Clifford of Badesley Ensor wit William Yardley and Edward Shilton
William 18.9.1760 to Dorothy Spencer of Grendon by licence wit Mary Morton and Elizabeth Blower.

It all fits niceley.

I'll go and look at the others.

Good morning
Sorry not to get back to you earlier.
Let's start with the children of Joseph and Elizabeth Blower all baptised in Grendon.
Sarah 31.5.1752
Mary 6.10.1754
Anne 6.3.1757
Joseph 22.4.1759
Elizabeth 5.7.1761
John 24.6.1764
William 2.11.1766
Elizabeth 15.5.1769
Samuel 23.6.1771
Susannah 15.8.1773.

I can't see a Richard .

As for Richard and Ann Chetwynd and their son Joseph .
They seem to appear in only two entries.
One for the baptism of their son Joseph 11.12.1763 and again for another son Joseph Dec 1776 .
If they are right then the earlier son must have died between 1763 and 1776 and couldn't be old enough to marry Elizabeth Hinks 16.10.1786 at Baddseley Ensor and be Pheobe's father.
And looking at it ,no marriage ,no burials for either I doubt Richard Chetwynd ever existed .I think the Vicar made a mistake and joseph was really the son of the only Chetwynd couple in the parish Edward Chetwynd and his wife Ann Clifford ,Elizabeth's younger brother.

There are 4 couples at Baddesley Ensor 1760-1800 ish
Edward and Anne ,William and Dorothy - both Elizabeth's brothers
Samuel and Ann Crow married 17.1.783 son of Edward and Ann and
Joseph and Elizabeth Hinks married 16.10.1786 wit Samuel Chetwynd.

plus the mysterious Richard and Ann.

I think Joseph buried 13 Jan 1839 age 78 years at Baddesley Ensor ,your Joseph could be the son of Edward and Ann Chetwynd bapt at Kingsbury 18.3.1764 as son of Edward and his wife.
That would mean the Samuel Chetwynd witness at his wedding was his brother Samuel.
Edward and Ann married 10.9.1759 at Merevale as we know.
Children Samuel 3.5.1760 Baddesley E.
Edward 13.12.1761-6.2.1781
Joseph 18,3,1764 Kingsbury
John 21.5.1767 Bad En.
Thomas 2.9.1770- 29.1.1776
John 24.1.1773
James 31.12.1761 -6.2.1781
Sarah 8.11.1778

Edward may have been buried Baddesley 30.3.1788 and Ann 19.3.1821 age 93 of Polesworth but at Baddesley.
William the other brother died 15.1.1776 after having Anne 18.3.1764 Kingsbury ,Mary 8.11.1767 Badd ,Samuel 22.6.1773 Badd. with Dorothy .

It would mean all the families at Baddesley Ensor were related and both branches descending from Sydney and Mary and his parents Timothy and Elizabeth  nee Soare of Kingsbury.

What do you think?

Wow, thank you for that....  I wasn't expecting such a detailed reply, which must have taken some of your time so once again thank you  :) :)

I haven't had time to look properly into too much depth at the moment, but it given me something to look at.

THANK YOU  :) :)
