Canada / Re: Looking for an Irene Hillman

Yes - am in contact with Dave.

As for where I fit in on what I think is your tree...I don't at the moment, unless I can link in a certain Richard Hillman born around 1590, which has so far proved impossible. No question that he does because the families come from the same small villages a few miles apart. If I could link in, then I'd get my tree back to Thomas Hylman who died in 1535 (and who is, I think, the earliest person in your tree).

Yes indeed. Very young to be getting married.

I have a fairly massive database of Hillman's, particularly covering the Midland counties and have visited the various archives at Stafford, Dudley, Wolverhampton, Worcester etc but can't pin down where Daniel was born or who his parents were. I can't remember whether I looked up the actual marriage record to see if it gave any further information re his parentage.

I'm now living in Thailand so accessing physical records is not possible!

Family History Beginners Board / Daniel Hillman d1832 Bilston in Staffordshire

At a deadend with tracing parents of Daniel Hillman.
Daniel married a Jane Hughes (1803 - 1873)  in Oct 1820 in Sedgley, Staffordshire. I have their offspring details. Very likely he came from Dudley.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi

Did you manage to trace the Richard Hillman who married Margaret Shaw who married May 1786 in Stafford?

Hi
Now living in Thailand and rejoined this website.

Managed to crack the brickwall I had re Dudley. May also have come up with a connection for the Stafford family. Richard Hillman and Margaret Shaw who married May 1786 in Stafford.

Ok - thanks very much. Looks like I'll have to base which one was which on the brother being the witness.

Staffordshire Lookup Requests / Kingswinford - Hillman Marriages 1818/1819

I have two marriages that I need help on.

26 October 1818 - Joseph Hillman and Ann Hartley

15 February 1819 - Joseph Hillman and Ann Bishop

I am trying to distinguish which Joseph married which bride! 

I think its likely that Ann Hartley was to Joseph (b 1795 in Kinver) and Ann Bishop was to Joseph (b 1794 in Dudley).  Any information on these two marriages would be gratefully received!
