Cork / Re: Kearney

Hi

My ancestors are also the same people I think? I was surprised to see your post.

In our family we have John Kearney (born in Ireland) who married Mary Ann Battaille (I know nothing about her, other than her father may have been a William) All I know is they married in 1839 in shoreditch. They had 3 sons. One of the sons was Henry Joseph Kearney born 1857 ( my great grandfather). he became an umberella maker.
I have Henry Joseph kearney birth certificate. It states his father was a tailor and his mother lived at Nichols street.

I'd love to find out some more on thebirish side.


Are these the same people?

Family History Beginners Board / Battaille family of London (hugonaut)
« on: Wednesday 22 February 17 14:21 GMT (UK)  »
I'm trying to trace the Battaille family from London.

Mary Ann Battaille married (1939) John Kearny a tailor from Ireland. They lived in shoreditch.

Mary Ann's father I think was called William Battaille. He may have been a silk Worker who lived at long alley. He had already died in 1939.

There appear to be 2 Mary Ann battaille's. One married a Thomas Pinckney.

The quatro series 51-52 for the hugonaut society lists Mary Ann Battaille and John Kearny.

I really stuck!

Any information would be greatly recieved.

Family History Beginners Board / Champion family of Stoke St Gregory
« on: Wednesday 22 February 17 14:12 GMT (UK)  »
The champion family were Withy workers who lived at Briar House, Stoke St Gregory.

During the Second World War 1939-45 there was a Prisoner of War camp located nearby.  There were Italian POWs but I'm not sure which other nationalities were listed there. Were there any Americans?

Some of the POW's worked on the withys at Briar House.

The people living at Briar House were Henry Champion, Margaret Champion and Vera Kathleen Champion.

Does anyone have any information regards to the POW's or anyone who worked on the Withys at Briar House, Stoke st Gregory between  July 1944 and may 1945?

Thanks for any help

Thanks for all replies!

I understand the coat of arms being attached to a pedigree and not a surname. However if you are the eldest child (women are accepted now) it is supposed to pass down that line. However in the 1600's all descendants regardless of whether they were direct appear to use the cost of arms.
The coat of arms for Golding has been found on gravestones in the USA for the 1700's.
Whether this is a link to the Sidwell family of Letcombe Regis. I still dont know if they are connected to my family or if they are an earlier branch that were already in Letcombe Regis.
The Gouldings of Kent were granted a coat of arms in 1575 and then again in 1619 when their name was Golding.
I have been in contact with the college of arms, who have verified all this. It appears that Henry Golding son of Robert Golding of Maidstone, (mayor and juror) and grandson of Robert Goulding of newherber or new arbor, married Mary Hammon in 1625 Bapchild, Kent. They had a child Henry who I believe was our ancestor.
The painting in the church quotes Robert Golding of newherber with granted arms.

The missing link?
The family appear to be Involved with shipping and also the Golding Hop. I cannot find exactly why they moved to Berkshire, Wantage, Letcombe Regis. They owned land and were one of the first people trialing land enclosures in 1801.
There are also too many Henry's and Mary's getting married at this time!?

Still puzzled!
Thanks for any help

Family History Beginners Board / John Reynolds Golding of Letcombe Regis
« on: Wednesday 22 February 17 10:16 GMT (UK)  »
John Reynolds Golding was born in 1708 in Letcombe Regis, Berkshire, England.
His parents were Henry Golding and Mary. I do not know Mary's surname. Was is Reynolds?
I know they originated from Kent. Between 1625 and 1708. This is the missing bit.
The Reynolds part has a coat of arms which is linked to the Bishop of Norwich of around the 1650's.
The Goldings also have a coat of arms. This is not the coat of arms of the the de Vere family of Suffolk.

In the vestry of the church of St. Andrews Letcombe Regis hung a painting of the family tree. Which was put there for safety by Charles Golding.

This showed the coats of arms linked to the Golding family.
The Adams, Head names and coats of arms were also included with the Reynolds and Golding.

When the family lived in Kent they were register as Goulding. But when they moved to Berkshire it evolved into Golding. They may have been avoiding Charles 1st as they were Protestants.

Also in st Olave they have the Golding coat of arms. Not sure which branch this is, and why they were using it?

Any information would be greatly recieved. I have done extensive research but have a gap.
