Durham / Re: Another mystery Wilhelmina Maud Freek Cancick
« on: Friday 14 October 11 19:22 BST (UK)  »
Hi Georgina2

Like you i am not sure about posting on this web site so If this message comes to you and not on the forum them we are reasonably secure from unwanted email attention.

I know that Wilhelmina married my relation John Appleton Turnbull

They had A son William Appleton Turnbull in 1900 but he died within months.
So far as i can tell  they had a daughter Margaret Eva Turnbull in 1906.

I would like to know if they had any other children and/or grand children.
Do you have info as to where they lived and what John Appleton Turnbull did as the years went bye

Also where did Wilhelminas father come from and what was is profession.

Any information that you have would be greatly appreciated.

If i can supply you with any do please ask.

Best Regards

Thanks for these extra details. It adds another twist to the story. Perhaps the Freeks and the Cancicks were related in a previous generation via marriage or adoption.

perhaps the detective types can find a link.

thanks again

Thank you one and all :)

It would appear That George Cancick  adopted  or looked after some or all of the Freek family at some stage.
perhaps through illness or hard times.

Anyway it seems that Wilmelmina took the cancick surname for when she got married.

once again thank you

Hi Strawberry mivi

not sure about these forums or if you get a email direct so lets hope this gets to you.

The lady you ask about I have some information on and some photos if i can find them.

Her father William Turnbull is my Great grandfather. I am desended from Fredrick a brother to your Sarah. my surname is Turnbull.

I have a bit more information on the family if you are interested.

I will try to find the photos.

I dont know why she was given the names she had but i would guess they were relatives surnames.
the eldest brother has the middle name Appleton which was William's wife's maiden name.
best regards

how can we exchange emails without the world finding out.?
