Yorkshire (East Riding & York) Lookup Requests / Re: David Spencer Blair - 1861 census
« on: Sunday 19 February 06 13:49 GMT (UK)  »
I note that David Blair was married to Isabella.  Does anyone know if they had a daughter, also called Isabella who may not have been living with her parents when the 61 census was taken.
I'm trying to trace an Isabella/Isabelle/Isabel Blair who married Joseph Boyes Ash in Malton in August 1861.  They are my g.g.grandparents.

Thanks

Hi all.

Just disovered Joseph Boyes Ash on this site.  I didn't know there were two of them (father and son).  JBA junior was my great great grandfather.  He married Isabella Blair in Malton in 1861.  According to his gravestone he died on 21-May-1910 aged 74.  He is buried in Manor Road Cemetery, Scarborough along with his wife who died on 14-Jun-1905 aged 68.  I have a photo of the gravestone which I will email on request.
Their children included:-
John William b.1862
Frederick b.1868
Mary Isabella (my g.grandmother) b.1870  d.12-08-1956
Ada b.1873  (married Henry Farrah)
Josh b.1874

Mary Isabella was married to Alfred Boothman. They lived and died in Scarborough.
I was always led to believe that the family came from Malton but this may just be in recent times.
Does anyone know where the name Boyes comes from?
Does anyone know the name of JBA senior's wife and their ancestors?

Would love to hear from anyone with similar research interests.
