Herts Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Tring, Berkhamsted - NUTKINS

Annette you are an angel!! Thank you for explaining that for me. You're right, they do advertise that you can see those records but its only the index that you get to see unfortunately. I can see this will get costly ordering several of them, so I'd better choose wisely LOL. Also, I greatly appreciate you giving me the other link for ordering them. Many blessings to you.  :D

Annette THANK YOU SO MUCH for the clarification! That's exactly what I'm trying to find. I'm sure that Job and James must be related in some way though, possibly brothers or other relatives? I greatly appreciate your help!!  :D

Another question... while it's easy to see the "Index Record", how are we to use that to find the actual birth/death/marriage record containing the actual detailed information on it? I'm getting frustrated with just seeing a volume and page number but nothing else. LOL Thanks again for your help!  :D

Oh My Word Ladies THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!! You've definitely given me some other things to think about. The Nutkins family has many mysteries I'm finding... before AND after John! I can't tell you how much this means to me, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Many blessings to you both!!

Herts Completed Lookup Requests / Tring, Berkhamsted - NUTKINS - COMPLETED :D

Hello! I pray this message finds you all well. I also appreciate that you are volunteering your services, and that I've finally found a place that may be able to help me climb my brick wall.  :D

I'll start with my 3x great grandfather, John Nutkins (b. 24 May 1850 in Tring, d. 15 Jul 1926 in London, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada). He lived in Tring until about 1865 when he went to London, where he met his future wife & her family, Elizabeth Margaret Bayley (b. 06 Apr 1854 in Greenwich, London, England, d. 11 Mar 1928 in London, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada). John Nutkins came to Canada around 1870/71 with the Bayley family. John & Elizabeth had 13 children, 2 of whom died in infancy or birth.

The History of Middlesex, Ontario, Canada publication states that John's parents are a John and Hannah Nutkins (b. 1826, d. 1856) of Tring. I was able to find the 1851 census listing John as the 10 mo old grandson of James Nutkins (b. 1781, d. 1855) and son of Hannah Nutkins, the daughter of James. So here I question who his father John was, why was he not married to Hannah, what was his last name?

From here I was able to find that James married an Ann May (possibly Mew/Mow - as the 1841 Census has Hannah living with the Mew family, so I think she could possibly just have been with relatives at the time of the census). Unfortunately on the ancestry site I was about to find only one marriage record for a James Nutkins and Ann May dated for 30 Dec 1790; which couldn't possibly be the same people could it? I have been able to uncover siblings for Hannah Nutkins through others on ancestry as well as by the 1841/1851 census records; Ann Nutkins b. 1823 d. Jan 1852 married William Seabrook b. 1818 d. 1869; Betsy Nutkins b. 1826??; Elizabeth Nutkins b. 1821 who possibly married William Young; John Nutkins b. 1827 who married Sarah Seabrook b. 1824; and James Nutkins b. 1828 d. Oct 1900 who married Sarah Twitcher b. 1830 and beget Charles Nutkins b. 1849 who possibly married Mary Ann Clark b. 1850, Job Nutkins b.1853 and George Nutkins b. 1862. I am concerned though that Ann is the only sibling that shows up on any census records that I've found. So I may have all the siblings wrong as well. Sigh.   :-\   ???

I'm struggling with the age of James and Ann Nutkins at the time their children were born, so I wonder if I have the correct people? However the 1841 and 1851 censuses do seem to be correct. I would think that most of the Nutkins families in Tring would be connected... I just don't know HOW yet. That's where I really need help with this branch. I'm so eager to find who my 4x and possible 5x great grandparents are, as well as their families (parents, siblings, aunts, and uncles, etc.) I really need some help with filling in the pieces or if you're not able to help in that way, possibly you could lead me to someone who can help me with this. I'm willing to learn about any errors I've created as well. I want to find the correct information, not just any information.

How is it possible to look at, or what do I do when, birth/death/marriage certificates all come up with a volume number and page number? Is it possible to see the actual record online (I'm subscribed to ancestry.com and findmypast.uk) or do I have to order the actual record and pay for them all (I imagine that gets quite costly)?

I so greatly appreciate you taking the time to read my information and questions and thank you in advance for your help. I really pray that we can work on this together and find some answers and new branches to my family tree.  :)

Limerick / KENNEY_Spearman/John 1797, CORBETT_Dinah, Pls HELP!! :)
« on: Sunday 15 December 13 22:42 GMT (UK)  »

Hello! :)

I am just new to the genealogical search world and have hit a road block. I am looking for some help in locating 2 John Kenney's from Limerick, Ireland, and any information connected to them. Here is what I have...

My 2x Great Grandfather is SPEARMAN CORBETT KENNEY, b. 1862 in Ontario, Canada. The middle name Corbett is his mother's maiden name, as was custom. So his Mother's name is DINAH CORBETT, b. 1842 d. 1869 in Middlesex, Ontario, Canada. Spearman's father's name is JOHN KENNEY, b. 1834 in Limerick, Ireland. (I would really like to find out any info about the Corbett side of things here too!)

Now, John Kenney's father is also named JOHN KENNEY, b. 1797 in Ireland but died in 1884 in Canada. This John, lets call him Sr., married a woman named Jane, b. 1816. I would like to find out who this Jane person is and her relations, as she is my 4x Great Grandmother. John & Jane Kenney came to Canada around 1840 to the Middlesex, Ontario, area, with 3 children: John (jr) b. ~1834, Eliza b. ~1836, and William b. ~1838, who were all born in Ireland too. They went on to have 6 more children in Canada. I would like to find birth/baptism records for all of the above mentioned people. I would like to find marriage records as well.

John Sr.'s 05 July 1815 - Canada, British Regimental Registers of Service record lists his place of birth as the County/City/Town: Limerick, and the Parish: Kenny. This is the only document I've found thus far for either John Kenney from Ireland. Why can't I find marriage or birth/baptism documents? In this same document, there is a few columns for "Observations" which then list some numbers and the phrase something like "at Limerick by pay Mr Griffin" - or something similar to that. What does that mean?

That's all I can confirm. I would really like to find out more information about the family from both sides. I have plenty of information on Spearman and have only really included that information in here because it's a unique name that I'm hoping will separate this set of John Kenney's from others? Does anyone have any information that relates to these families?

In advance, I truly appreciate any help you may be able to provide. Thank you,
Many Blessings to you & yours, & Happy Holiday Season! :)
