STOURTON | Charlotte's first name is misspelled in the database | It shows Caharlotte instead of Charlotte Stourton .... more | 28/10/2016 | 6584 |
DANBY | John Danby | John Danby was an ancestor of some Botting family members appears to have had three wives. I have not been able to find much about his first wife, Ann Danby [nee ?]. | 28/10/2016 | 6582 |
TURNER | Very prompt and helpful | Thanks so much for access to the details on this headstone. These details vary from the parish burial record. Very puzzling!
I am trying to trace the origin of my ancestor, Thomas Turner, who was last confirmed residing in West Wretham, Norfolk, in the early 1800's. His wife, Elizabeth Tuffs, came originally from South Pickenham. Thomas had been the Warrener at Bromehill Warren on the Weeting Estate and Elizabeth had worked in the manor at Weeting Hall. They married in 1778.
There is an 1836-37 Register of the Electors for the Western Division that records a Thomas Turner living at Thorpe Farm, West Wretham. I have long assumed that this must be the same Thomas Turner that moved there with his wife and family about 1790 from Weeting. After all, how many Thomas Turners would move to a place with only a handful of residences? However, I have never been able to find a record of burial for either Thomas, or his wife Elizabeth, in Wretham or any where near by.
One theory is that the parents had gone to live with their children or grandchildren. Some did live in the Pickenham/Swaffham area at about this time. This burial is certainly one of interest to me in my search.

ESHELBY | Thank you | Thank you for your excellent service. Reading the verse on the Ann Eshelby gravestone helped some way to confirm that this is the right person (along with location/date/spouse name) as her husband Christopher was a Pilot and the imagery is very fitting.I am trying to discover exactly how Ann Eshelby was linked to Alice Mary Hicks Nevison who was described as her 'niece'on the 1881 census in Clee with Weelsby. Ann Eshelby's maiden name was Foster and Alice's mother, Mary Ann Nevison, was the daughter of a Mary Foster and John Nevison.

SMITH | Appreciation of this valuable resource | Thanks Charles for the very prompt receipt of three images requested; I am absolutely in awe of the time and dedication you and your fellow volunteers give to this fabulous resource.

I am currently looking at my Smith line in Ifield but have many other names I would like to follow up on.
Well done to all! | 25/10/2016 | 6575 |
SIMPSON | Simpson/ Ferguson | Thank you for the images. They are very helpful and may I say a terrific site. | 25/10/2016 | 6577 |
JACKSON | Damaged gravestone for Elizabeth Jackson | Believe the gravestone for George Jackson who died in 1820 is my 4th great-grandfather but really wanted to see the date for his widow, Elizabeth, but it is too damaged. I particularly wanted to see it because she was supposed to be giving birth in 1816 to my 3rd great-grandmother, Ann, and I am concerned she was 66 when she died so am hoping she was a lot younger than her husband and died a lot later than him as well! | 24/10/2016 | 6570 |
