Hello,
Looking for a Shropshire marriage of Maria Millichamp
between 1851 & 1861.
In 1851 she lived in the Bitterley area.
Thanks,
Hinton

Hi Hinton, your Maria may have gone to New Zealand unmarried, arrived 1858, with her mother Eliza Bray (nee Ick) who remarried to Benjamin Bray after Maria's father Edward Millichamp died about 1838. Does this sound like your Maria? If so, how are you linked?

Hi haylingozzy,
I am descended though Mary Osborne, John Nankivell Osborne's (JNO) sister I believe. In the IGI (her christening) her mother is Peggy Osbourn, rather than Margaret, and has no father listed. JNO is a witness at her wedding in 1837 where her father is given as John Nankivell. I believe that JNO married Jane Drabe in 1829 and I think she is found widowed in Calstock in 1861 with children Betsey, James, Henery and Mary. This is the same town that his sister Mary moved to. Am I on the right track?

Hi Tin Miner,
I would be  interested in anything 'Bartle', 'Barkle' from the mines in Mary Tavy.
Jonathan Bartle's father Walter Bartle was a miner and died 1840 in Blackdown, but I do not know where he is buried.
Jonathan's uncle, Charles Kneebone Bartle, was a mine agent in Mary Tavy. He was christened Mary Tavy 1819. The 'Kneebone' is unusual and is not a family name that we can find. Do you know anything about that from your research?

Hi clair85,
I don't know if the 'Nankivells' went to NZ. Jonathan Bartle's grandfather was a Nankivell, but not Jonathan himself. He went to NZ with wife and 1 child. He did not run a company.  He was copper miner in U.K. and a painter in N.Z.

Hi treemad, I am related through Jonathan mentioned in jwood's post. Jonathan moved to New Zealand where I am from.

I am not sure I can add much more going back than jwood. Mary Osborne, John's sister, was christened in Ashwater, Devon 20 July 1810. Walter and Mary moved to Gunnislake, Calstock between 1851 and 1861 where they are buried.

How are you linked?
