Title: Boulton of Hanley
Post by: LeedsHipPriest69 on Sunday 11 October 09 15:07 BST (UK)
Any details of Boultons born in Hanley between 1700-1850.

I have a Mary Ann (Annie) Boulton born circa 1847.

Possible parents David and Olive, but I have not confirmed this and cannot do so until I have a copy birth certificate (awaiting marriage certficate for Mary and Edward John Tew (1865).

Any help appreciated, as IGI not very good for Hanley.

Hi,

David and Olive Boulton are my ggg Grandparents. They had a daughter called Mary Ann, born in 1849 in Hanley. I know from their marriage certificate that Olive's maiden name was Williamson and that David Boulton's father was a Samuel Boulton but haven't been able to find his mother's name as of yet, nor his birth record which is very frustrating. I've not been able to find the family on the 1851 census (possibly it's missing) but they are on the 1841 and 1861 censuses, as are the Williamsons who I also haven't been able to find on the 1851 census.

I'd love to hear from you if you find you are connected to this family as I've not heard from anyone connected to my Boultons before.

Good luck searching,

Zoe

I can go back to a George Boulton born in c 1795 in Hanley who married my relative Lydia Mountford and had children in Hanley from 1816.

All you Boultons out there.  :)

It now seems that Mary Ann Boulton, did not marry my ancestor Edward John Tew as I first thought. Edward married his niece Annie Tew.

However Annies father Robert Tew DID marry one Mary Boulton in September 1844 at Bucknall cum Bagnall.

Anyone connected with this Boulton ?

Again any further info/scanned images would be appreciated.  ;)

Thanks,as you will see from my first message to this thread your mention of the name Lydia is very interesting.In fact one of the children I have recorded of George Boulton and Lydia Mountford is a Mary Boulton who I have born in Hanley in 1826.I don't as yet have info as to who she married.

Hi, I have Robert Tew = Mary Boulton 16/9/1844 (see IGI at www.familysearch.org)

I am assuming, but have not yet checked, that Robert Tew was christened 20/10/1824 in Hanley (again IGI at www.familysearch.org), with parents being Thomas Tew and Elizabeth Key

Hi William

Nothing 100% proven as yet, but..

1841 Census - I can only find one Robert Tew in Staffordshire (listed as b1821)
Robert is living with his parents Thomas and Elizabeth TEW so I am 100% sure that Robert is the elder brother of my Great Great Grandfather Edward John Tew (b1843).

Robert married one Mary Boulton 1865.

1841 Census - there are 3 Mary Boultons listed as born 1826, however one, your ancestor with parents George and Lydia, also has another child Harriet (b1828).

This could be pure speculation on my part, but both Harriet and Lydia are recurring christian names within later TEW families, my own Grandmother being one such Harriet (b1900), whilst her mother had sisters Harriet and Lydia.

Thanks,I've finally found Mary Tew and her two daughters Ann and Lydia living in Queen St Hanley in 1851.Living next door is Mary's brother Enoch Boulton born in Hanley in 1824.I think this is strong evidence that it was my Mary Boulton who married your Robert Tew.

Do you know where and when Lydia Mountford was born ?

Was it Hanley in 1795 of  Thomas and Frances ?

Post by: wrjones on Tuesday 08 June 10 23:42 BST (UK)
Yes thats correct,she was the daughter of a Thomas Mountford and I believe a Frances Wright.

First of all a very warm welcome to Rootschat Rob.A particularly warm welcome to a cousin through the Mountford line for as I said in my previous post I'm descended from Lydia's brother James.

So far I've discovered ten children of Lydia and George Boulton.The ones I have are;
Hannah(1816)
George(1817).Married a Lucy Harrison.
Adam(1819)
Lydia(1822)
Enoch(1824).Married a Jane Cliffe.
Mary(1826)
Harriet(1829)
Edwin(1832)
Titus(1833)
Ann(1836)

I welcome your info on Harriet,as ever with info given I'll look at the records!

Hi William,

Harriet passed away in 1863. She had 3 children with Joseph Hall, Joseph (B 1848) Maria (B 1856) and John (B 1858) After Harriet's death Joseph went on to marry a Rose Broom.

Have you got back any further on Mountford's and Wright's?

Regards

Rob

Thanks Rob,I've still got to get round to checking the Joseph Hall marriage etc,as ever with these searches I got sidetracked spotting other Boulton relatives!

As far as Frances Wright is concerned I have no definite info of her birth or Parents.The same is fairly true of the Thomas Mountford,but ignoring the submitted entries on the IGI,the only possible birth of a Thommas Mountford who would have been able to marry the Farncis Wright that I've found given in Stoke-On-Trent itself is one whose Christening is given on the 10th of September 1754 to Parents Joseph and Mary Mountford.

Thomas's marriage to Frances Wright is given on the IGI to have taken place at Newcastle-Under-Lyme on the 29th of April 1788.

I seem to have fallen at the first hurdle with your Harriett and Joseph Hall Rob.Whilst I can't find them in 1851,the 1861 Census shows Harriet given as born in Sedgly Staffordshire.I also can't find any record of the marriage.

William Russell Jones.

Post by: wrjones on Friday 27 August 10 10:16 BST (UK)
I have found an interesting Christening on the IGI.It is an extracted record from Sedgley Wesleyan,Stoke-On-Trent.It is of a "Harriott" Boulton on the 11th of June 1827 to Parents John and Elizabeth Boulton.

Further examination of the IGI extracted record for the baptism of my Harriet Boulton,the daughter of George Boulton and Lydia Mountford at Wesleyan Hanley in 1829 shows that she was in fact born on the 5th of March 1819.

Whilst there may be some doubt over her birthyear,Harriet Boulton the daughter of George and Lydia Mountford is shown as unmarried born in c 1828 and still livng at home in Queen Street Hanley in 1851 with her Parents.HO107/2004/9/11.
