That is one of the corbishleys on my tree. He may be a direct ancestor as earliest parts of my tree are a bit confused and not definitely proved. Used to be a near neighbour of yours as lived in Chirk until 3 years agto and think i have probably met you as i used to work in Cefn library, then wrexham and finally museum. Worshipper

Yes you probably may have met me,and you are perhaps not wrong in saying that indeed the History of this Family is quite confusing.Whenever i am given info off someone else concerning a Family,I always am keen to perhaps check for details of the Family in lets say Census Entries and BMD etc.i can say that I have been having quite a bit of trouble in adding the descendants of Joseph Corbishley to my Tree.In fact some details are lets say so dodgy,that I am minded to leave certain branches well alone.

Just browsing and came across your 2005 reference to Corbishleys. Are you still searching. My grandmother was a Corbishley from Macclesfield. Ken Follows

Hi Alf,
I have took advantage of all your MI's in Staffordshire and Cheshire.
Your information is a gold mine and saves me having to buy my wife too many Sunday lunches 'on a drive to the country' that happens to include a churchyard

Thank you too Inheapet. Your list includes some of my Corbishleys but not all. You have James b1852 Rushton but not his daughter Susan Jane- my maternal grandmother although some of his other children are mentioned. Worshippeer.

The Corbishleys at Thorncliff I think were Francis and Anthony. Their sister kept the Red Lion for a time.

Re Wainwright tree

Just had a quick look.

James Corbishley and Joyce only had 12 children. George William is the eldest and Hannah the youngest.

Thankf for that information but I do have the 12 children I think.

Thanks Madeinstaffs for info about Corbishley bros. Worshipper

James 1802 - 1876 and Joice had 12 children. You have 15 listed.
George William 1824, Charles 1826, James 1829, Anne 1831, Martha 1834, Sarah 1835, Moses 1838, Joseph 1840, Maria 1842, Eliza 1844, Henry 1846 and Hannah 1849. All lived into adulthood and married.

The other three you have are Anne 1834, Mary 1832 and Charles 1837. These are the children of Thomas Corbishley born 1807 brother of the above James. Thomas died in 1838 and his widow Maria married Samuel Brassington.

Sorry to be pedantic but these are my direct ancestors.

Hello. I am rather confused. there are only 12 children of James b 1802 on my tree. I've just rechecked Genes. I too am a direct descendant of his. Margaret Bird.

Hi All,

Sorry but I uploaded additons to my tree last weekend and it went all strange on me. I do have only 12 kids for Janes. I am back now from working away and have cleared out the mess and uploading again.

Sorry for confusion,

Peter
