One Name Studies: A to G / Re: CHARMAN one name study

Hi Colin

Many thanks for taking the time to reply to my question about Edward Charman and apologies for not acknowledging your advice before now.  I only just saw the message.   ::)

I looked at your tree on Ancestry for Sefton (Edward) Charman b. 1730 and see you have his pedigree as:

Sefton (Edward) Charman
Parents : John Charman and Mary Sefton
Grandparents : John Charman and Sarah Stanford
Great grandparents Francis Charman and Ann Heath

I would like Francis Charman and Ann Heath to be the right couple in this pedigree, however, I'm stuck on proving that Francis Charman is John Charman Snr's father.  The reason I'm stuck is that I have 4 different baptism records in Slinfold (plus 2 in nearby Warnham) between 1666 and 1680 for people named John Charman (one of whose father is certainly Francis Charman).

Would you mind sharing with me your reasoning as to why you believe Francis Charman and Ann Heath are the right parents for the John Charman who married Sarah Stanford please.

I am of course happy to send you my spreadsheet with all the BDM details I have located for different John Charmans in Slinfold and nearby. 

Kind regards and thank you again for replying so helpfully to my earlier request.  :)

Therese

Hi there

I am hoping you can tell me if you have an Edward Charman born to John Charman and Mary Sefton between about 1726 and 1750 please? 

John Charman (from Slinfold, Sussex) and Mary Sefton (from Wooton, Surrey) were married in London on 17 May 1726 in St Benet Paul's Wharf, London. Those children of theirs that I could find were born in Slifold, Sussex - but I couldn't find an Edward.

Edward Charman had a son named Sefton in 1770 baptised in Selham so it is very likely his parents were John Charman and Mary Sefton (who also named one of their children Sefton), but I can't find a baptism record for Edward anywhere.   

I would very much appreciate your advice please.

Cheers

Hi Carol

Many thanks for taking the time to reply to my message and welcoming me to the forum.  I'm also delighted to meet someone who has a shared interest in one of my ancestors (ie Caroline Walker).

It was my 4xgg George Wild was married to Caroline Walker (keeping track of 5 generations of father and son called George has done my head in at times trying to keep track of them, hence having to refer to them by generation number to keep them straight in my head :)).  He died in the Melbourne Hospital (now known as the Royal Melbourne Hospital) from Cancer of the Parotid salivary gland on the left side of his neck. So sad he never saw his wife and other children again.   I visited Pinxton last year and took a photo of Caroline's grave.  I have also visited 4xgg's unmarked grave in the old Melbourne Cemetery in Carlton, Victoria.  I was therefore so pleased to see such a substantial headstone on Caroline's grave in Pinxton and to also see 4xgg George mentioned. 

I appreciate she is not on your direct line, but if you are interested in the reasonable amount of info I have collected for Caroline Walker (and her family) don't hesitate to let me know.  I'm very happy to share. 

Thanks again for your message.

Hi there

I just came across your offer via Google.  If you are still offering, I would very much appreciate some assistance on the following ancestors who were from Pinxton.

My 2xgg, 3xgg, 4xgg and 5xgg were all named George Wild.  2xgg and 3xgg went to Australia during the gold rush in 1860 and didn't return to England.  3xgg was a blacksmith and died in 1867 in Melbourne (my hometown). 

4xgg George Wild was variously a blacksmith and retail beer seller and grocer and probably the publican at the Three Horse Shoes pub in Pinxton in 1857.

5xgg George Wild was born in 1756 and married his second wife 19 yr old Elizabeth Horseley in Selston in 1787. He was living in Pinxton at the time.  His parents were William and Ann Wild.  I would love to know when/where William and Ann Wild married and Ann's maiden name.

Any info on 5xgg George Wild's first wife would also be fabulous as would any information about any of my George Wilds and their wives.  William and Ann are my priority though. 

Many thanks
Therese  :)
