Title: COLTON's in Barley, HERTS - any information????
Post by: juliepaillin on Sunday 20 February 05 10:07 GMT (UK)

Hi,

Is anyone reseraching Coltons in Barley. I have My great granmother Gertrude Colton's father was Thomas Colton, Born Barley, Hertfordshire. Married Emma and later Lizzie. Also had Emily daughter and lived in Leicester.

I would be interested in anyone who has researched the coltons from Barley/nuthampstead.

Or anyone who has the census or BDM info that could tell me more.

Kind Regards

Julie

Hi Julie

You didn't give any dates, so I started in 1851 but could see no Coltons in Barley.

In 1871 RG10/1360 folio 34
High St Barley
George Colton head marr 45 ag lab b Nuthampstead
Mary Colton wife 37 char woman b Langley Essex
John Colton son 16 ag lab b London
Thomas Colton son 14 shoemaker b Barley
Joseph Colton son 11 scholar b Barley
James Colton son 8 scholar b Barley
Eliza Colton dau 6 scholar b Barley
Sarah Mancer m in law 72 wash woman b unknown

You get two for the price of one with Thomas as he seems to appear twice in Barley!

Church End Barley
Thomas Colton apprentice 14 cordwainers apprentice b Barley
in household of
Charles Machon marr 44 cordwainer b Buckland Herts

David

Thankyou for posting that...I was wondering about any earlier than (1861) that as I did manage to (1871) on ancestry.com.

Do you know anyone researching that name as well?

Many thanks for replying, it is very kind of you and at least I know they weren't there in 1851. Thank you

Kind Regards

Hi Julie,

I am wondering whether you have since received details of the Coltons who were in Nuthampsted in 1841 and 1851.  If not, maybe I can help.

I look forward to hearing from you.
