Hi and welcome to Rootschat

Can you confirm if you are just seeking living relatives?

If not,   and you need help with your research - can you tell us what info you already have and what is still missing

Hi,
I have John Oulton b. 1832 who married Jane Ford in 1854 at Barthomley. Jane is the sister of my g-g-grandmother Eliza Ford.

John's father was Robert Oulton. I have no more details yet but he would have been born in the Barthomley area about the time of your Robert.

I have a number of Oultons from the Barthomley/Alsager/Stapeley area cropping up in my tree - they seem to have a thing about marrying into the Fords and Thornhills who are my ancestors.

Hi again,
It looks like my John Oulton's father was Robert Oulton born 4 Feb 1806 who married Mary Whittaker. He died 16 May 1888 (I think, gravestone difficult to read) and she died 14 Sept 1882.

They are buried at Barthomley and I have a photo of the gravestone as well as other Oulton graves.

Hi Peter
Thanks for your msg.  Now have another name (Ford) to add to tree!
Yes, Robert b. 1806 was father - have details of John's grave at Barthomley. b. 1832 died 1869 aged 38, m. Jane b. circa 1832 d. 1863 aged 31.  Believe they farmed at Stapeley, nr Nantwich.  Had 1 daughter Anne, who survived? - b. circa 1856 died 1946 aged 90- unmarrried - Know that she lived at Alsager in the 1900's - However following the death of her parents stayed with uncles Basford at Stapeley & Whittaker at Radway Gn. See Census for 1871 - 1901.
Do you have any info of Robert Oulton's or Mary Whittaker's ancestors by any chance?!
Look forward to hearing from you.
June

Hi June,
I have transcriptions of Barthomley St Bertoline parish registers:

8 Mar 1827 Robert Oulton m. Mary Whittaker. No parents names given.

6 Mar 1806 Robert's baptism has his parents as Richard and Mary Ann.

Note the parish register gives his birth as 5 Feb 1806 but his gravestone has 4 Feb 1806.

Hi Peter
Thank you for your message about your Gt Grandfather William - John Oulton was brother  to my Gt Gt Grandfather Robert Oulton b. 1833, so suppose that makes him my Gt Gt Uncle!  It's very interesting isn't it?  Have you read Peter's (Pepsi62) messages & replies, about John's wife Jane Oulton ( nee Ford), her sister - Eliza being his Gt Gt Grandmother!

Regards - June

I only have one Oulton in my tree.  She is my 4th great grandmother Mary Oulton.  She married John Tilsley in Nantwich on 2 Feb 1769.  I don't know who her parents were.

Hi
Thanks very much for your reply - Do you have any other info re. Mary Oulton m. 1769, where she was born etc? Likely to be Nantwich area, if she married there, I suppose.  Look forward to your reply.
Best regards
June

Hi, the IGI marriage record also gives her birth year as 1741 as it gives the ages of bride and groom, she 28, he 25.

The only likely looking birth is 1743 in Warmingham, but there are some Mary Oulton, buried in Acton around 1742 and one in Nantwich in 1744 so she could belong to any one of these families or none of them!

I feel sure that if she was born in Nantwich she would appear on the Cheshire Parish Project but she doesn't

Found out my Mary Oulton was in fact Mary Pemberton who married Thomas Oulton on 19 Mar 1762, they had one daughter that I know of, Margaret born  1762 in Acton by Nantwich.

Thomas died in 1767 and Mary remarried to John Tilsley in 1769.

Thanks for your message - Sorry, not sure if Thomas Oulton was related to Oultons from Barthomley, Nr. Crewe, although locations are very close.  Am still researching them! Received Rootschat message recently about a new (to me!) website Pilot Family Search. I note it's based in Salt Lake City, Utah.  Have found this a brilliant search engine for ancestry info.  Will keep in touch if I find anything else.

Mary Ann Joynson's parents were Peter Joynson & Elizabeth Fox, who married at Bartholmey on Apr 29 1780.  On Familysearch there is a list of marriage allegations for Cheshire & this includes one for Richard Oulton & Mary Ann Joynson giving their ages as 24 & 22.  It might have some more information for you?  Peter is buried at Warmingham.

Thank you very much for info re: Joynson ancestors - will add to my tree & take a look at Family search records  :)

I am researching the WOODNORTH/WOODNOTH family  in the Market Drayton - Nantwich area.  I notice that Peter Woodnorth married  Hannah Oulton 13th Jan 1791 (B.T.) and they had a dtr Ann chr. 25th Sept.1791.  Does anyone have any more info about this family.  I am trying to sort out the Peters.

Post by: mavis1958 on Saturday 31 March 12 11:04 BST (UK)
Sorry not replied earlier to your message - but am in midst of house move!  - Have checked Peter Woodnorth on-line cheshire parish register database & note that his first marriage (shows as Bachelor) was to Elizabeth Bourne in 1770 at Wybunbury, Cheshire (she died in 1787 - next of kin Peter, resident at Weston) Records show a number of children christened at Wybunbury before 1785 (residing at Weston, Nr. Crewe) with Peter as father.  His 2nd marr? to Hannah Oulton in 1791  (marital status not mentioned)& daughter Ann's baptism at Wybunbury - again shows residence at Weston!
Have not yet linked Hannah Oulton to my Oulton family, but do have a John Woodnorth - on Ancestry.co.uk Tree - from the Wybunbury area - who married an Edith Timmis in 1767 & a witness of marriage is a 'Peter Woodnorth'!

Hope the above info is helpful to you - if not a bit late!?

Regards
June

Hello June.  Thanks for your reply.  The fact that Peter was a witness to John's marriage was something we didn't have.  From the Parish Clerk Records, I have John marr MARTHA Timmis 18.8.1767 in Wybunbury.
  We have been wondering if Hannah Oulton was the "Ann" in a Peter & Ann couple who later had family over in Stourbridge/Old Swinford (1815-ish). There is also a Peter (a miner, born Market Drayton abt 1817) marr 1838 to Elizabeth Deakin, living over in Wolverhampton - his father was John (nothing more known about him.) Wybunbury Parish seems to encompass Mkt Drayton: yes, we have the Weston list.
Thanks again.

Wybunbury parish does not encompass Market Drayton and is some distance away and in a different county.
Wybunbury parish is at the south-east edge of Cheshire and adjoins Staffordshire although it is close to Shropshire. It does include Weston, Cheshire (there is also a Weston in Staffordshire and one in Shropshire.
Market Drayton is a parish town in Shropshire.
