Rutland Lookup Requests / Re: William Popple Uppingham
« on: Saturday 30 January 10 11:06 GMT (UK)  »
Thomas Popple married Mary Winter, they lived around the Tugley area of Leicester/Rutland. Thomas' mothers maiden name was Pateman. Thomas and Mary emigrated to Australia abord the Abberton in 1844 and from memory had a large family including Betsy, Matthias, John, William, Thomas. In fact I have a copy of a letter written by Thomas Popples family in England to him in 1845. The Leicestershire/Rurland Family History Society has a copy of this letter which Micheal Billings transcriibed about 10 years ago.Lets know if this is the right family and you need anything more specific

MARIA was baptised at Uppingham in 1826 bythe Rev Dimmick
sources for that
1   I have seen a letter KEPT IN HTE FAMILY BIBLE signed by a Mr Curtis and dated 1850 verifying he witnessed her baptism in Uppingham (maybe this verification was provided for immigration purposes?)
2  I have seen her original baptism certificate which seems to have disappeared THOUGH iAM MAKING ENQUIRIES TO LOCATE IT.
 
Can you please look over Uppingham baptisms for 1826 as it should be there

regards

JOHN

Maria Searcy was the daughter of George Searcy and Mary Thorpe. According to her death certificate completed by her husband Mark Hayes she was born in Hallaton. I hvae seen a baptismal certificate giving her place of baptism as Uppingham.

I have extensive material on her mother MaryThorpe's descent. which I am happy to share.  I would be interested in making contact with any descendnants of her siblings including the Collins or Sellars family who located to Wawickshire.
