Cheshire Lookup Requests / CONGLETON SETTLEMENT
« on: Friday 28 November 14 05:19 GMT (UK)  »
I was wondering whether anyone who has access to settlements for Congleton could try and help me verify something please?
I believe that my 6xgt grandfather Thomas Elkin was born in Trentham, Staffordshire, in 1740 but that sometime between then and his marriage in 1768 he settled in Congleton (at which time he was recorded as 'of Congleton').
The only problem is that without proof of settlement I can't be 100% sure that I have the correct baptism and so I'm a bit stuck.
Is there anyone who could possibly help?
Thanks
Sam  :)

Thanks so much wisteria, and I understand completely about the wills. I have applied to Lichfield record office and am awaiting their reply  ;)

Thanks so much for your reply. Yes we are definitely on the same line, but I may have the last Edward wrong from what you say. I have him baptised in 1673 but if his first child was born in 1683 then this may not be correct.
I would love to know more about where they lived and the work they did. I don't suppose you would consider sharing a copy of the wills with me? I would be happy to contribute to the cost.

Thank you so much for your kind offer  :)
This is my husband's direct male line which has caused a few headaches as it would seem his ggg grandfather George Buckley was the illegitimate son of Edward Bollington of Ashover. From various online sources (we're in Australia so researching can be difficult) these are the Bollington ancestors I've come up with.

Edward Bollington b. abt 1780 Ashover
Edward Bollington b. 1753 Ashover, married Elizabeth Marriott
Edward Bollington b. 1725 Bonsall
Joseph Bollington b. 1702 Bonsall
Edward Bollington b. 1673 Bonsall
Edward Bollington

I'm confidant that I've followed the correct line as I've found settlement information for Joseph from Bonsall to Ashover which I'm waiting for from the record office.
The hardest part is finding out anything about their actual lives, where they lived, what they did?

Thank you so much. I really look forward to anything you can tell me  ;D

Regards
Sam

I'm looking for any information about the lives of the Bollington family from the mid 1600's in Bonsall and then from about the mid 1700's in Ashover until the 1830's, particularly their occupations, where they lived, anything they were involved with in their communities if anyone has access to this sort of info please? TIA  :D

I was wondering whether there was anyone planning a vist to the record office who wouldn't mind obtaining a couple of photocopies from the parish registers for me and emailing copies to me pretty please  :)
I know I can apply to the record office directly, but I'm very impatient and I know waiting for them in the post will take ages (as I'm in Australia)  :P
I would be happy to cover any costs via Paypal.
