Chooch, I know this is an old post, but I have only just come across it. William Linsey married to your Fanny Scaith was my 3x great grand uncle. What is your connection please?
-
Hi Larkspur
My connection to Fanny Scaith/William Lindsay is slim, I was actually doing the research for my cousin whose connection is 3xgrt grandson of William and Fanny via their daughter Fanny who married Edward Dove, their daughter Annie married Herbert Briggs, their son James Edward Briggs was my cousins father - hence my uncle.
Chooch.

Hi Larkspur, can we communicate. Fanny Skaith and George Lindsey are my 3x great grandparents. I have some info on this family.
-
My line comes down through Williams older brother George, b c 1807 in Ruskington.
The parents of these boys were Edward Linsey and Hannah Ellis who married 15 Sep 1806 in Timberland. They were my 4 x greats. A couple of ancestors I share with your cousin.
I just had a quick look at Fanny Linsey, I have her baptised in Osbournby 21 July 1839.
Then I find a marriage with Edward Dove at Sleaford registry Sep 1882, making Fanny almost 43 at her marriage. There is an Annie Dove registered Sleaford Mar 1888. If she is the correct one Fanny would have been almost 50 at her birth. What have I got wrong? There is an Ann Elizabeth Dove registered Sleaford 1883, could she be "Annie".

Britgirl, Fanny Scaith was married to William Linsey. On 4th July 1832 in Osbournby.
George Linsey was married to Hannah Woodford 2nd March 1829. Which couple are you related to?
-
William Linsey and Fanny Skaith. William son of Edward Linsey and Hannah Ellis and Fanny daughter of Thomas Skaith and Frances Bee.
-
Britgirl, we share the same 4x geat grandparents. So Hello cousin ;)

Hello, do you know who Sarah Linsey is born 1768 and living with William Linsey and Fanny in 1841 as shown on the census. Recorded as Independent.
Also do you have the family of Edward Linsey born abt 1780. Looks like he could be son of Edward Linsey and Elizabeth and Edward born in South Witham.
-
Sorry I don't know who Sarah may be.
Edward Linsey baptised 30 Dec 1781 at South Witham was our joint 4th great grandfather. His parents were Edward and Elizabeth, I haven't found their marriage, so no surname for her.
But I do have the senior Edwards baptism 2nd Feb 1754 at South Witham, parents Henry and Elizabeth LINDSEY.
Edward (1781) was buried in Billingsborough on 13th Nov 1825 at the early age of 44. His wife Hannah Ellis went on to marry John Woodford on the same day as my 3x great grandfather married Hannah Woodford 2nd March 1829 in Billingborough.
Henry Lindsey married 13th Nov 1750 in S Witham to Elizabeth Richardson. He was baptised S Witham 31 Jan 1724 with parents Henry and Catherine, do you want to go further back?
-
Yes please. Where did you find this, parish records from personal searches or Lincs to the Past. I look on lincs to the past but find it difficult to search.
I am going to send for Sarah's death cert and see if that helps. At first I thought she had to be the mother but parents do seem most likely Edward Lindsey and Hannah Ellis. Perhaps a spinster aunt!??
-
Edward and Hannah did have a daughter Sarah but she was baptised 1823 and died 1853.I have not found a Sarah dau of Edward and Elizabeth, doesn't mean they didn't have one of course.
Mainly from Lincs to the past. I think it is a wonderful resource. Some on Ancestry, some on Family search, and some on Free reg.
-
I don't think Sarah could be Hannah under a wrong name or middle name as birthdates are so different. And as you see here is also a daughter Sarah, so could be named after someone!! Yes lincs to the past is excellent just have to be patient.
I searched my Linsey Skaith line a long time ago, just getting back to it to see if there is more information about. Thanks would be interested in whatever you have on the Linseys/Lindsey. My line moved to Osbournby and my grandfather was born in Gosberton.

Hello Chooch and Larkspur.
That is right Fanny Linsey was born 1861 and married Edward Dove in 1882. This Fanny Linsey was the daughter of George Linsey 1832 and Mary Ann Isaac 1834. George Linsey 1832 being the son of William Linsey 1809 and Fanny Scaith 1804. Fanny Linsey 1861 was the older sister of my great grandfather Joseph Lindsey (note spelling of name changed here) born 8 Feb 1877 in Osbournby.
Hope this clears up any confusion.
-
Hello Britgirlp and Larkspur, could Sarah be an older sister of Edward 1781 or a younger one for Edward 1754.
Sorry! I have been searching but cannot come up with anything else, of course it's possible Linsey/var was her married name which complicates things further.
Nice to make contact with you both.
-
Hello, Chooch thank you for the suggestions. Sarah Linsey 1768 is a puzzle. I am looking everywhere I know and if it is a married name she could be anyone.
