Title: POTIPHAR, Aaron b. ???? -
Post by: Congenic on Monday 25 August 08 02:02 BST (UK)
 :)  Hello & Good Evening.

Edited due to Error.  ::) I don't know if this is going to be possible because of the dates but if I could ask anyway. I would like to know if someone could help me locate the date of birth for a one Aaron Potiphar The details I have so far include:

Place of birth: Barking, London

Married in 1759  to  Elizabeth Cleeve b. 1721 - d. 1772 also from Barking, London

I am also after the date of death for one Sarah Catling b. 1768 -  d. ????. Married William Potiphar b. 1759 - d. 1842.  I know she is the daughter of Thomas Catling  b.1732 - 1784 and Elizabeth Manneke b.1737 - d. ????. Both born in Stepney and were married 1758

I have just come back to this after trying to search some information. I have found that the Manneke line takes me to Pierre Patcie b. 15?? - d. 1595? and his wife Julienne b.15?? - d.1595 also but I will ? that. My ancestors down this line are French!!  :o AND Googling a name brought the attention of a Genealogist to me who it turns out Im distantly related to. Talk about finding a needle in a Haystack.

Hi-

Check this website that has some info on the name:

http://www.piers-potiphar.co.uk/page2.html

It appears that one of you has bad info:  He says Aaron m'd Eliz. Cleeve 1759 and that son William married Sarah in 1788.

Hello Nick. Many thanks for the reply and pointing out my errors. I have changed them now. I am afraid it is not on that site you you suggested. That is a site I have used frequently in the past but unfortunately what I am looking for also seems to be something which eludes Piers for now. However I did find out a lot from his site including that Piers is a distant cousin.

If and when I can find the information I will also be letting him know too  :)

HI

If you dont already have it there is a Will for one Aaron Potipher on the National Archives- it may help fill in a few gaps

Hi, Are you a Potiphar or a descendant? I am and am glad that i found someone who is reasearching the Potiphar tree.

I know its a while since you posted this but a reply would be great.

Hi Adam

Welcome back  ;D

Hopefully James will now receive notification that we have both replies and come back soon.

If he doesn't, you could try to send him a personal message as he has enough posts to use the system.
