Yorkshire (East Riding & York) Lookup Requests / Re: 1861 Census York - Ronchetti
« on: Thursday 28 March 24 11:20 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you for replying so quickly.  I will go through the Como birth records again looking for a Taveneiro link.  If you are on ancestry I have some pictures in my tree including a portrait of him and Mary Ann.  I am not sure of their authenticity as it comes from another Ronchetti section.  I have also found a newspaper cutting dissolving a partnership with Joseph Ronchetti and Dominic Poncia in 1835 they were dealing in beads and foreign toys.  He must have gone into an apprenticeship to learn his trade shortly after that.  We are going to visit the lakes this summer and will make a trip to Tavenerio  and when we go to York will certainly look up their resting place.

We have a Ronchetti telescope which came with some details of the Ronchetti family and Tavernerio was mentioned in that.

My memory is very poor I dont think we communicated further on this or did we?

I am interested in where Pietro came from as his name in his naturalisation papers was only Joseph.  His son seems to have registered his death adding the name Peter.  I have searched the Como birth records covering the years 1806-1816 and there is no Pietro Guiseppe Ronchetti only one Guiseppe Ronchetti born in 1810 which would match ours.  Maybe Peter was added after he came to England.  I would like to find his grave do you habe any idea where it is?  I have found his sons grave.

Look up please for a Miss P.A. Ashley who lived in Durban arrived from England 1960's? and passed away mid to late 1980's. I have had no joy in tracking this lady and would dearly love to resolve this.

Many thanks

this lady was my grandmother .... I would be glad to answer any questions you have about her.  There is quite a story to it.  I am researching the family now and that is how I cam across your queery.    Sally - Daughter of Violet Victoria (maiden name Muller) daughter of Pearl Ashley.   I live in the UK now but Nan finally returned to SA  later in life and as you say died in the late 80's.
