Looking for any info about the family of William Standway PARKINSON. He married Anne CLARKE c1800, and had at least four daughters. Can find three of them but not the fourth, or any sons.
Blanche Elizabeth 1802-1867 married James GREEN a surgeon of Ramsgate
Ruth Mary 1804-? married Henry STREET
Hero Sarah married David BLAIKLOCK (The fourth daughter).
WS PARKINSON was a Naval Officer who had served with Nelson in the Mediterranean.
Nothing on census for William and Anne as he died 1838 and she in Jan 1841. Have his will, but he leaves everything to her, no mention of children.

Hi,
I see in 1881 RG11/1076 f.101 p.18 that Ruth is living in Brighton so I think this could be her death registration,
Ruth Mary STREET age;81 Mar Q 1886 Brighton v.2b p.156
You don't mention Hero Sarah's death either so just in case you don't have it,
Hero Sarah BLAIKLOCK Mar Q 1857 Pancras v.1b p.10
This looks like another daughter, on the IGI,
Ann Catharine PARKINSON
Christening: 08 AUG 1818 Boughton Under Blean, Kent
Father: William Standway PARKINSON
Mother: Anne
Christened at the same place Sarah was,
Hiro Sarah PARKINSON
Christening: 16 DEC 1805 Boughton Under Blean, Kent
Father: William Standway PARKINSON
Mother: Anne

Thanks Daisy. They must be in the new stuff that is on the IGI as I had not found them before.
Yes I had Hero Sarah's death thank you. Found it in The Times.
Now to find Ann on the census or getting married somewhere.

My interest is through the David Blaiklock's mother who was Ann Butcher born 1778 in Hascombe Surrey and died 1838 Newington.

Sorry Julie, forgot to get back to you.
Have some info on the Blaiklocks, but not a lot. Only from what I have been able to find on the census and TDA.
Am doing this at work so cannot look up the names but from what I can remember, one of the Blaiklock girls, Hero I think, married a Henry PATCH, a clergyman from Winchelsea, and one of their daughters Blanche was George Bernard Shaw's secretary for many years. Two of the PATCH sons came out to Australia, but one was KIA in WW1.
My Connection is through the CLARKE side, Hero PARKINSON was a first cousin to Beaumaurice Stracey CLARKE in my sig photo.

Hi Ian
Unfortunately only accessible by visiting The National Archives but there is likely to be further information on William Standway Parkinson through his navy service records
Royal Navy: Officers' Service Records
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/catalogue/RdLeaflet.asp?sLeafletID=287
William married in 1800 at St Andrew Holborn. Ann's place of residence at the time was Uckfield Sussex.
PCC will
Will of Anne Clarke, Widow of Uckfield, Sussex
Date 26 April 1803
Catalogue reference PROB 11/1390
and
WILLIAM STANWAY PARKINSON
Birth: 18 FEB 1769
Christening: 14 MAR 1769 Saint Luke Old Street, Finsbury, London
Death: 05 SEP 1770
Father: JOHN PARKINSON
Mother: SARAH
Have you used Hugh Wallis' website checking for middle names on the IGI. Might be useful in looking for instances of Standway and Parkinson.

Have the info from St Andrew's Holborn thanks, also Anne Clarke's will. She left everything to Anne Parkinson.
Had seen the one born 1769 but had discounted it because of the death. Have not checked the PRs though to see if it is the same one who died or was another WSP, a grandfather perhaps.
There is a bit about WSP on the web, mainly because he served in the Mediterannean with Nelson.
There must be more children as well unless they lost a few. He was not at sea much after about 1800 as far as I have been able to find. The TDA marriage notice for Hero Sarah born 1805 and David BLAIKLOCK in 1839 said she was the fourth daughter, then there is 13 years until Ann Catherine in 1818.
The name Stanway/Standway does appear but as grand and great grandsons second names.
William Standway PARKINSON died at 9.30 am on 19 February 1838 at 35 Nutford Place, Saint Mary, Saint Marylebone, aged 69 years of decay of nature.
