I am looking for information on my gt grandmother's family - Spindlow from Co Tyrone. There are Spindlows in rhe 1901 & 1911 Cesus but I do not know their relationship to eachother.
-
Perhaps if you give us the details you know about your Spindlows we can help you.

Gt gt Grandmother Margaret Spindlow married Henry Hull on 20/12/1853 at Brackaville C of I, Donaghenry,Dungannon. Her father was Willian Spindlow. Margaret had brothers Robert,John ,James & William & sisters Mary Ann, & Emily. Don't know the order of birth. Some of these were lightermen, working on the canals.
My gt grandmother, also Margaret, was born in Coalisland but later worked in the mills near Lisburn.
My grandfather had a cousin Harry Spindlow, married to Elsie who lived in Co Down
-
Judging from the marriage date you might want to start searching for church records since civil registration of births, deaths and Catholic marriages started in 1864 (from 1845 for non-Catholic marriages).

Hi,
Spindlow is an unusual name in Ireland but the IGI has a William Spindlow who married Ann McCullough in Armagh in 1821.
-
What is the IGI, please? William Spindlow married Ann McCullough in 1821, then Hannah Patterson in 1846 at Brackaville, Donaghenry, Co Tyrone. Don't know if both had children to him, or just one.
The 1901 & 1911 Census both have Spindlows but I do not know their relationship to each other - there are some in Armagh & some in Tyrone. As it is an unusual name I assume they are all related but do not have any proof yet. I have been told by a family member that Spindlow is a derivitive of an Italian name, but I have been unable to verify this.
Thank you for your help.

kmc:I am not sure how this will fit with your family record.
My great grandmother was Emily Spindlow (born c. 1830
died 1889)daughter of William Spindlow of Brackaville, Coalisland.
She married married John Moneypenny at Brackaville on 15 October 1852
Both Spindlows and Moneypennys were lightermen on
the Newry Canal.
-
This sounds like the same family. Do you know anything else about her family? Thanks
-
William Spindlow married twice, to Ann McCullough then to Hannah Patterson. Do you know the name of Emily's mother?The 1911 Census shows a James Spindlow & 4 Moneypenny's on a ship on the river Lagan. There were also Spindlow's in Armagh. I'd be grateful for any info you have. Thanks
-
I'm sorry but I have little information on the Spindlows. What little I know came from an aunt who died in the 1990's aged nearly 100. I really only know that my great grandmother Emily Spindow was the daughter of William Spindlow who was a canal boatman and they belonged to the Church of Ireland at Brackaville, Coalisland.
Emily married John Moneypenny and one of their daughters, Isabella, was my grandmother.
One of the other correspondents mentioned that the Spindlow name was possibly a derivative of an Italian one. My aunt also told me that there was an Italian connection in the family but she did not know much about it.
I have a lot of information about the Moneypenny's which i am happy to share with you but don't know how to contact you other than through Rootschat.
-
kmc. Since my great grandmother, Emily Spindlow, was born in in 1830 her mother must have been Ann McCullough Williams' first wife. It would seem that your great great grandmother and my great grandmother may have been sisters.

Hi Marie
I have just spotted your posts about John Moneypenny who has my family name. If you have any more information on his family, I'd love to share it.
I have compiled quite a big database now which until recently I had on a website. I've had to take it down as I changed internet companies but I still have it all on file, aphabetically and I only had one child for John and Emily, which was David b 1871.
If you can fill in any gaps on this family, I'd be very grateful. Likewise, I can share what I know with you!

William Spindlow ( father William) married Ann McCullough in 1821, then Hannah Patterson in Brackaville in 1846. He had 7 children - Emily, Margaret, Mary Ann, Robert, John. James & William. I don't know their birth order or d.o.bs. This seems like the same family. Do you have any other information?
-
It does seem to be the same family. All I know is my husbands great great grandfather was Robert Spindlow, 1843-1892 Brackaville coalisland.
His father William I have absolutely no information on him.
I do know a lot of the family were lightermen on the canals.
From Robert to date I have all information.

Hi,
I am researching my friends family tree and her grandparents were William and Evelyn Spindlow who resided in Lambeg, Lisburn. Having looked at the posts here, I believe there is a connection with the Spindlows of Coalisland. I would be grateful if anyone could give me any further information regarding the family.
-
Do you have any dates or further family names? There seem to be two branches of the family both originating in Coalisland, Co Tyrone. One branch descends from William Spindlow & the other from Harrison Spindlow. Perhaps they were brothers? Any further dates or ancestors names should help to pinpoint their origins.
-
