London and Middlesex / Re: Brick wall - Daltrey in London

Hi
I did a bit more work on this and found a tentative link to Yorkshire with birth date of James in the right period plus link to another Daltrey (cousin) who definitely moved to London - also no further records in Yorkshire of this James. Hopefully the attachment explains a bit more !

I've responded to the other thread - believe I've cracked it. Beverley Yorkshire where William also came from - would have been James' great uncle.

Hi, sorry about multiple posts but just found London apprenticeship record from 1678 for William Daltrey son of Hugh Daltrey of Beverley Yorkshire. So moving down (or sending son) to London clearly did happen. Have found baptism for Willus son of Hugonis in 1663. William (who may be the Carrington William around 1690) could be uncle of James, his father Hugh brother to William and also in Beverly a Hugh bpt in 1675 son of John - stretching s point but these could be 3 brothers! Can only find the 1663 William baptism though. All very speculative but it could all fit. Need to spend more time on this.

Sorry meant also to add, seems were some Huguenots who came over to Yorkshire in earlier wave in 1500s...

Just to add James baptism was 2 May 1717, actual birth could easily have been 1716 i.e. before 25 March.

Hi all
Like many coming back to this brick wall again recently.
Firstly though, I've not been too convinced about the Huguenot connection in early 1700s as checked the French church in the city via the H society and nothing like daltrey listed anywhere.
Secondly I've just discovered on Findmypast (not listed on Ancestry or Family' search) a James Daltry born in Beverley Yorkshire in 1717 (year is at most 1 year out) to father James a shoemaker.  No proof of link to London but I can't find any subsequent Yorkshire records (marriage, children, death) relating to him and people clearly did move to London (e.g. Richard Dealtry will from 1740 says lived Whitechapel left lease in Bubwith Yorkshire - son James, another red herring!). Looks like his  father married a Mary which is James and Lydia's first daughters name I believe.
Not proven I know but given lack of any London (or anywhere else given birth date now known)  or Huguenot connections maybe it works......
