Montgomeryshire Lookup Requests / Re: 1841 look-up please, RANDLES, Llandrinio
« on: Monday 10 March 14 23:38 GMT (UK)  »
This is probably too late to be of use, but I have some information on the Randles family of Carreghofa. Several were millers.

There was an elder Thomas, died around 1844. One of his children was Rosamund (born 1813) who married William Jones around 1837. Thomas the elder married Elizabeth Onslow of Shawbury, Salop in 1797. Rosamund's elder sister Elizabeth (b.1810) married David Williams, a blacksmith (my GGG grandparents.)

Thomas had a son Thomas, born around 1801, who married Elizabeth Tudor of Oswestry in 1830.

Cumberland Lookup Requests / Re: Elizabeth Hayston - 1851 / 61 census

Hello Everyone !
I've recently discovered I'm descended from the Hayston family of Harrington, Cumberland.
My 4G grandmother is Ann Hayson, daughter of Wm Hayston & Ann Glaister.
(Ann's older sister is Bella (Isabella) Hayston.)
Wondering if anyone has details on the ancestors of Wm Hayston (b1745?) and Ann Glaister.
Thanks !

Casalguidi--

I have found a little more information but I'm afraid it doesn't solve the mystery.

According to my source, birth certificates for two of Hannah's children ( Harry Thomas Snewin b1850 and Frederick Snewin b1854 ) show Hannah Hagger as mother and John Snewin as father.

According to Fred’s birth cert. J & H  were living at 9 Albert Terrace, Bow.

But I don't see any birth, death, marriage, or census information (1841/1851) for any John Snewin.

I'm tempted to believe it's a made up name for an unwed mother's "husband" .

Casalguidi--

I believe you are quite right.
I must assume my source for the John Snewin/Hagger connection is mistaken.
Sorry about the false alarm.

I do see a burial for John Snewin in St John Hackney for May 1817. His age is given as 19 months, so obviously this is the John Snewin born October 1815.

The Snewins are my ancestors. John's younger brother Henry is my GGG grandfather.

I must say this is quite a mystery. I'll dig around some and let you know if I find anything.

Since at least Henry's father's time, the family name has been spelled Snewin (earlier it shows up as Smewin, Smuen, Snewing, etc.) There are quite a few in the Hackney area.

Roger, thanks a million. They're Ranelli in 1851, Randler in 1841 ! No wonder I can never find anything.

I took my information from a Snewin genealogy document, which has some inaccuracies. I'll see if I can follow up for more details.

On closer inspection I see no record of a marriage of John Snewin and Hannah. Was it possibly a common-law arrangement? If Hannah married Thomas Jackson in 1842, is it possible Jackson died in the 1840s?

Do you have the birth cert. for Harry Snewin (Harry Thomas Snewin b. 3Q 1850)?

John Snewin was christened 22-Oct-1815, St John Hackney, son of Philip and Ann. I have a screen shot of the birth record, and it's available on ancestry.com.

According to my information, Hannah Hagger married John Snewin in the 4th quarter of 1842 in Marylebone. I have her birth as about 1823 in Tottenham, Middx. John was born around 1815 in Hackney, Middx. At some point (early 1850s?) he worked as a warehouseman in Bow, London.

Diane--
Wondering if you got any more information on the Ramsgate Isaac Catt ?
If he's a Tenterden Catt, he's a distant cousin of mine.
Cheers,
Mark
