Would somebody be able to look up the Parish records for Banbury please?
I am trying to find out when Elizabeth Jackson (nee Bonham) married Thomas Mascord. It would have been sometime between 1825 and 1834.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,
I've searched the OMI for an entry for Elizabeth Jackson & Thomas Mascord but haven't found a match. I also searched under Elizabeth Bonham, but again no match. There is only one Thomas Mascord entry and that is to a Susannah Adams in Banbury in 1809.
There are only 11 Mascord entries (for males only) in total, all of which are in Banbury between 1718 and 1827.
If you want me to do any other searches let me know.
Regards
Paula

Thomas Mascord was married twice, first to Susannah Adams 1 November 1809 but she died in 1828. Thomas then married Elizabeth Jackson (nee Bonham) in June 1847. She had also been married before to Thomas Jackson who died in 1926 and she had 5 children with him. Elizabeth then had a further 5 children with Thomas Mascord (all before marriage) and they also adopted Rebecca Butler born in 1850. The two families were all living together in the 1841 census. Hope his helps.

Hi
Thank you for your help. Are you also researching the Jackson/Mascord family?
I'm also interested in how you found out about Rebecca Butler. I found her living with them in 1851, but there is also a record of another Rebecca Butler around the same age seemingly living with her parents and I did wonder if this was the same person. I had not been able to find any relationship to the family.
I haven't been able to find any record of her after this census?
Thanks again for your help

Hi Pat
Thank you for your message.
I am related through the Jackson line. Elizabeth Mascord (nee Jackson) was the mother of my gr x 4 grandfather who was the son of her first husband Thomas Jackson. Whilst we wont be directly related, we may have a link through any of the children Elizabeth had with Thomas Mascord?

Dear DebbieG
Many thanks for your prompt reply to my query. You have answered my question perfectly. One more request if I may.
I am having difficulty in finding the birth/christening record of this Samuel NICHOLL, goldsmith from London who married Ann Jarvis.
My own theory is that Samuel was originally from Banbury or area, went to London as a young man and became an apprentice goldsmith. We know he then owned his own business in Aldgate, City of London in the 1720,s and I assume came back to Banbury to marry Ann Jarvis. He then took her back to Aldgate where their 6 children were born.
Samuel was likely to have been older than Ann as he became an apprentice in 1714 in Aldgate (probably being about 12-14 years old). Apprenticeships in gold took 7 years so he would have been in his twenties before qualifying. This would make his date of birth about 1700 (give or take 5 years).
Any chance you can check for a christening entry in Banbury? His father may have been a William Nicholl.
Thanks again.

Hi,
I think I have a large family tree for this Samuel Nicholl, goldsmith.
He came from Barking, his father a tanner Thomas Nicholl (d1713) mother Suzanna Harrison.
THe reason I have it is because...
his son Samuel became vicar of Sutton Courteney Oxon who had 2 sons George and William
George went to India, married and died probably of Cholera but his pregnant wife returned to give birth at sea to another George.
This Georges descendants have matched with my fathers y-str DNA.
I am looking for my ancestor the father of John Nichols Bailey born Bodicote 1810. The story goes that the father was a Mr Nicholl Solicitor from Stratford.
I did the dna test to find a nichol family and did!
Anyway to cut a long story short, there is a Nicholl Yahoo group that has lots of info that I have posted on this family including the large tree.
PS you will find a will of Samuel Nicholl goldsmith on the oxfordshire family history website. I have most of the wills of his relations including his father, and son and sisters and daughters. Also some fo his cousins, particularly Alice.
Do you have an interest in the familY?
To find out more about this also google The Georges Nicholl

This came from the goldsmiths guild....
Thank you for your email of 10 February. The text below comes from an earlier enquiry in 2009.
Samuel Nicholl was the son of the late Thomas Nicholl, tanner, of Barking, Essex, and was apprenticed, on 12 May 1714, for seven years to Samuel Edlin, Citizen and Goldsmith. A premium of £25 was paid to his master (Goldsmiths’ Company Apprentice Book 5, fo.49v.). Samuel was made a Freeman of the Goldsmiths’ Company on 22 November 1722 (Freedom Book 1, p.87). He was elected to the Livery on 14 April 1737 (Court Book 14, p.44) and to the governing body, the Court of Assistants, on 16 October 1745 (Ct. Bk. 15, p.123).
He took two apprentices – Samuel Hill (1724) and George Robins (1733).
From A. Heal’s The London goldsmith 1200-1800 (CUP, 1935, p.212) there is the following entries:
NICHOLL, Samuel (of Nicholl & Abdy), goldsmith, within Aldgate 1742-1744.
NICHOLL & ABDY (cf. Samuel NICHOLL), goldsmith, within Aldgate 1753.
I am not sure that the second entry is correct because I have a reference to a will for a Samuel Nicholl proved on 24 November 1749 (ref. PROB 11/774), which you can probably track down on British Wills Online.
A Samuel Nichol (sic) entered a maker’s mark, SN, in a heart-shaped shield, at the Assay Office in Goldsmiths’ Hall on 23 March 1723/4. At that time his address was ‘at Mr Arnets at the Blackamoor’s Head in Foster Lane’.
Other snippets of information include a commission of bankruptcy awarded to him against Moses de Porto, merchant, late of London, a creditor of Samuel Nicholl, goldsmith of London, 26 February 1735 (ref. National Archives B/4/8 p.117 ?Commission of Bankruptcy perhaps).
From the Old Bailey proceedings a Thomas Nicholls (sic) was indicted for stealing a silver mustard pot, the property of Oriel College, Oxford. Samuel Nicholls (sic) stopped the same in his shop (ref. Old Bailey Proceedings, 16 January 1740, pp.56-57 – you might find this in the Old Bailey Proceedings online). I think that St. Catherine Cree Church was mentioned in that proceeding.
Finally a son of Samuel, Samuel Nicholls (sic) was made free by patrimony, on 6 November 1776, on the testimony of Charles Wright and Robert Peircy, Goldsmiths. The son was a clerk (priest) in the parish of Bix in Oxfordshire.
