Antrim / Erskines in Antrim
« on: Friday 06 January 06 04:22 GMT (UK)  »
I have been told that I am descended from Thomas Askey (Askins, Erskine) who was born between 1727-1730 in Antrim.  He married Elizabeth Baker in 1764 in Cumberland Co, Pennsylvania, USA and died in 1807 in Centre, Penn, and is buried in the Lick Run Presbyterian Cemetary.  One of his son's, William, my gggrandfather used all three surnames until retaining the original Erskine.  He apparently was the only sibling who chose to call himself Erskine--the others retained the Askey name that his father used after first arriving in the US.  Anyone know anything about a Thomas Erskine born around 1727 in Antrim?  Marie Sue

Cambridgeshire / WAYMAN or TILLEY in Cambridge
« on: Thursday 29 December 05 04:39 GMT (UK)  »
I'm looking for the Wayman's on High Street in the mid 1800's.  Mary Wayman married Joseph Tilley in 1854 in Cambridge.  I'd like to communicate with anyone also researching them...Also need to locate ancestors of Joseph Tilley of Doddington.

Hi Ros and Carol,
Thanks for your help!  The Wright connection answers some of my other questions--I've e-mailed to the person that has some info on Sarah Wells in the US...now do you have access to any info on the Lee family in Kimbolton (William Elijah's father I believe was Robert) or John Wells and wife Martha (Tossel or Tassel)?  The latter are parents of the Martha who married William...thanks again for the prompt reply...Marie Sue

My ggrandparents Martha Wells and William Elijah Lee were married in Renhold in 1835.  My ggrandmother Priscilla Jane Lee was born in 1849 in Renhold or Kimbolton--I know that the three went to America in the 1860's, but I don't know if there were other children (Priscilla's siblings) that might have stayed in Renhold (or Kimbolton, home of wm. lee) after the parents left the country.  there may have been a son Arthur who also left England.  Anyone else?
