Hi,
Two marriages for Rowberrow.
George Stock - Hester Hares or Hears 1.02.1808
George Stock - Sarah Adams 1.09.1781
Thought the second might be of use.
Regards
Joburg

I think I gave wrong info on Rebecca & Thomas Venn. This Rebecca was b 1808 but in DEVON - whoops
However in 1851 there is a Rebecca Venn b 1824 Rowberrow married to Thomas Venn b 1818 Rowberrow, with son Henry age 5, George 10 months & Mary Ann 3. It looks like the address is 'In the Bottom' !!!!!
In 1861 Rebecca is a Widow age 37 with sons Henry age 15, George 10 & Edward 8, plus nephew John Stock also age 8.
I think this is the Rebecca who married 1844, not the one born 1808 to George & Hester.
cheers John

Hi
I am researching my 2nd Great grandfather Samuel Stock he was born in Rowberrow in 1818 he married Kate York from Chewton Mendip in Bristol in 1843.
He first moved to Monmouth then Caerphilly.
Any information would be appreciated.
-
Hello yes... Samuel Stock....I have 1817...is on my Family Tree but I don't have any info about him ...I do have the names of his brothers & sisters but nothing on his immediate Family ..his father James b 1779 is the brother of my GGG Grandfather George b 1783......regards Janet
-
Hi
Thanks for the reply I wonder if your Samuel Stock is the same as mine, as i said previously my Samuel Stock married Kate York. Have you any more information regarding your Samuel Stock there seems to be a few Samuel Stocks in that area.
Mine had children called
George
Henry
Caroline
Sarah
Albert
Joseph
perhaps these names are familiar to you.
Regards Glamboy
-
Sorry I made a mistake Samuel Stock married Sarah York not Kate. Regards Lyndon
-
Merry Xmas Lyndon......the Samuel Stock I have on my tree is
Samuel Stock b 1817 (Rowberrow)...his parents are James Stock 1779-1821. (Rowberrow) & Hannah Stock 1784-1821 (Shipham)
his siblings are Mary 1806
Charlotte 1806
James 1814-1817
James 1818
Henry 1821.........all born Rowberrow
maybe these ring a bell....regards Janet

Hi Janet, Hope you had a nice Christmas, with regard to Samuel Stock the first time I have been able to find him is on the 1851 census. He and Sarah lived in the Monmouth area at the that time he had 3 children Leonard (4) Henry (1) and Caroline (1 month).
I then found them living in Van Rd, Caerphilly with Henry (11) Caroline (10) Sarah (7) Albert (6) Joseph(4) George (2) my Grandmothers father.
So the names seem to fit my Grandmothers name was Florence Katy Stock I presume after her mothers sister Kate York.
Hope this is of help the problem I found is people never really spoke about the past years ago especially people who moved to wales from England. I have more West country blood in me than Welsh that's for sure.
Regards Lyndon
-
Hello Lyndon....just a note.. I found Samuel on 1881 Census...says he was born Bristol Somerset...my Stocks also migrated northwards so I reckon we are probably related distantly...Samuel & Family living in Glamorgan on the 1881 Census from the free Familysearch site...I am sure you would already have this...I can type it out for you if you don't...am off to do some chores before the heat hits us...will keep looking for you...regards...Janet
-
Hello Lyndon...you probably have Samuel Stock's & Sarah York's marriage....25 June 1843 St. Mary's Church, Bristol, Gloucester England...father's name James Stock...which James Stock????..regards Janet
-
Hi Janet,
yes I noticed Samuel down as coming from Bristol, I will need to get a copy of the marriage certificate of him and Sarah to establish exactly where their fathers where from.
I don't really know much about Samuel or Kate I know he was a miner and his son George Stock Married Mary Ann Jone from Brecon Town then moved to Pontypridd and lived in 11 Pantygraigwen Road and he had the following children.
David Samuel Stock
George
Arthur
Sarah
Mary Anne
Catherine
Walter
Florence Katy (My wonderful Grandmother)
I will come back to you if I find anything else what part of the work do you live in you said the about the heat getting to you.
Regards Lyndon

Hello Lyndon....we live about 60 kms out of Sydney Australia...heat not too bad as yet...we have had some showers but it makes it very humid...we often have many days in Summer past 100 mark...hope weather maybe kinder to us this year & no bush fires....my Stocks came to Australia 1920...my Grandfather George Stock (1872) suffered with Bronchial trouble & thought the better climate would be ok he lasted another 20 years so it must have proved to be so...he died a year before I was born so don't know a lot about him...his father also George Stock was in the British Army & my grandfather was born in Cork Ireland (1872) while he was posted there...thanks for info on your family...regards Janet

Hi Janet,
I started my family tree about 2 years ago and have a few relatives in Australia, New Zealand and Canada. I must admit I have enjoyed my research the Stock side is the last leg for me.
I live in Pontypridd the home of Tom Jones, my surname is Francis, my mothers maiden name was Enoch. My wife and I have been married for 38 years and we were in infants school together.
My Francis line came from Dorset, my Enoch line are true Welsh, I think the name Stock is German in origin.
I hope we are related Janet I will keep in touch with you and update you with any information I find.
If don't know if you subscribe to Ancestry I don't personally I will next year when I retire, if you do will you look at Samuel Stocks wife Sarah's fathers name hope it is Samuel York he also moved to wales to live with his daughter.
Kindest Regards Lyndon.

Hi Janet,
Thanks again I will try to find the link between our Stock families, the problem for me is there are 40 people with the name Stock buried in our local cemetery. There are also numerous people with the name Stock in the phone book, I will however keep looking.
I am pretty good at this my Grandfather and his older brother were sent to the children,s homes when his mother and father died. My uncle could not find his 2 sisters but I found them buried with their mothers youngest sisters in Llanhilleth about 12 miles from Pontypridd.
I was born by the way in Pontypridd in 1952 I trained as a carpenter/Joiner but now I am a building surveyor. My daughter visited Australia last year during the floods she was in Sidney, Byron Bay and flew home from Cairns. They hired a car but had to fly over the floods to Cairns, she did a Skydive and loved Australia very much.
I always think instead of sending the convicts to Australia they have left them here and moved the remaining population there.
Anyway Have a Happy and Healthy New Year Lyndon & Family

George was the brother of my 3rd Great Grandfather (Paul). I was born in Shipham, my family were the last of the Stock to live there I'm afraid.
The is even an area there called Stocks Common.
-
Another interesting Wale connection, my Grandfather was known as Dai Stock, my Grandmother was Welsh. Grandad moved back to Shipham in the 50,s. He was born in Wales but his father was born in Rowberrow.
Somebody mentioned a Samuel Stock, this may be him.
