Title: William Woodburn(e) born 1836/37 Kirkby Ireleth
Post by: juliaann1962 on Friday 24 July 09 12:57 BST (UK)

I am struggling to find the birth date of my Great Great Grandfather William Woodburn(e) born 1836/37 in Kirkby Ireleth. He was the son of Thomas Woodburn(e) and Mary Robinson and had siblings Eleanor born about 1835 and Isaac born about 1841. I also believe that Thomas and Mary were married around 1834 but again cannot find an exact date. They lived at Wellhouse in Kirkby Ireleth and then moved to Beckside and William took over the farm that his uncles had run for years.
Any help with dates would be wonderful.
Many thanks
Julie

Hi Carole,
I don't think you have the right Thomas Woodburn as his parents were William Woodburn born January 1743 and Jenny Fallows born April 1757. I have a christening date for Thomas as 19/02/1795. It's William, Thomas's son and his siblings that i am struggling with. The date you gave me for Eleanor is possibly right though. Thank you for that.

Hi to you both, yes i am the Julie Green that was in contact with you Alistair but the research has been on hold for a while due to major changes in my life. Thanks Radcliff for that extra info which i didn't have. It's much appreciated. Alistair if you'd like to get in touch again let me know. It's the same email address as before but not sure if you still got it.
