Devon Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Kingwell - Ugborough

Thanks for the info... that Richard Kingwell and Mary Newman may have been Henry Manning Kingwell's brother.
In searching I have found that the Kingwells were originally "Kingwill"
Is there a KINGWILL from Ugborough?

Mike,

Can you tell me what IGI stands for? I'm not aware of the meaning...
Also, is there a British Census for that period or up-to the 1860's that would mention him? He came to Canada pre-1872 with the British Fusiliers and stayed in Quebec City where he married my wife's great-grandmother.

Rick....

Mike,

Tks for the info.... Can you tell me which of the Samel Kingwells is mentioned as his father?  Does the parish record give the name of the mother? What is the name of the Church, please?

Rick...

P.S. Sorry for all the typos in my original posting.

Devon Completed Lookup Requests / Kingwell - Ugborough
« on: Tuesday 18 April 06 00:51 BST (UK)  »
Hi,
I am looking for anything that would help find proof of birth of "Henry Manning Kingwell" c. 1832. His parents would have been Samuel Kingwell b. 1781 -Ugborough, and Jane Mary Manning b.  about 1781 also in Ugborough. They were married either May 25, 18-3 or July 29, 1803, in Ugborough. If not that Samuel, maybe Samuel Kingwell christened Aug 22, 1875, and Mary Newman, about 1808 - everyone from Ugborough - married Sept 3, 1829, in Ermington, Devon.

Tks,

Rick

Jennifer...

Can you tell me what "1577/134" before the name Mulberry Cottage means? Similar numbers before other names...

Not familiar with that. Could it be a house number?

Jennifer,
Hate to be such a "pain" with all my questions on OUR ancestry and we do appreciate you taking the time to help out. Do you have access to Pallott's Index?
Found today what we think might be the father of our first Burridge. He was (?) William Burridge b. Feb. 18, 1768 in Battersea.  He married a Mary ? and had some children Robert b. 1798 and Charles b. 1800. Could there have been an Arthur b. 1796?
William b. 1768 was a market gardener, as was our Arthur b. 1796. In our research Arthur's wife, Emma Guy was born, circa 1807, in Shifnal, Shropshire, where we read "...Most of the women (who worked in the fields) travelled on foot from Shropshire and north Wales....". This seems very much as if there was some sort of family resemblance.
BTW, William b. 1768 had 9 other children with Mary Whickman from 1814 to 1823.

If this makes any sense to you, you're much better than I.

Hi,

We've now emailed both the Tiverton Museum and Tilbury to see if they have any records of a Burridge being owner or manager.
Many thanks to both who have given us clues for us to follow. If you find anything else, we would appreciate hearing from you.
