Mary Helsby was born in 1798 and was my 3rd great grand aunt. She married James Cornwall on 7th July 1813 and had 7 children. She died in January 1866 and James died on 23 Nov 1870.




Hello,

While not connected to WG Helsby, I am tearing my hair out trying to find the ancestors of a woman named Mary Helsby. Mary was born around 1790 and married James Cornwall in 1813, but I have not been able to trace her line back - that is to say - where she fits in the great Norman Pedigree!
Unfortunately, I have wasted time searching the wrong Mary and find myself a bit stuck! Is there anyone out there who can help?

Thanks in anticipation,

Kent / John Woodruff 1604-1670

Does anyone have anything on the emigration of John Woodruff with his wife Ann and son, also John (1637-1691) to America? John Snr's birth was registered at Fordwich in Kent, and I believe he married Ann Gosmer in 1627. Their son John's birth was registered at Sturry, Kent in 1637. John Snr died at Southampton, Long Island, New York in 1670. Ann died in Suffolk, Livingston, New York in 1683, and son John died at Elizabethtown, New Jersey in 1691.

Any information around emigration 1637 onwards gratefully received.
