Evening,

I am so glad to see that someone else thinks the mother of the Welch children was a Shaw!
I have been wondering if she was the Mary Baptised 1771 Clifton, Bedfordshire daughter of Moses and Susannah Dimmock, the Welch Marriage I think is in Islington 1795

Such a lot to go through, will keep me busy for a while but I might just connect Mary Shaw up to see if the DNA does anything

Virmanta Smith I can see DNA matches from her but I need to expand her family and check it out

Kind regards
Amanda

Hi Shane,

Many thanks for all this information, I'll read through it over the weekend

I do have the Tobias booklet but it's really interesting that Ruth thought he might be a Cousin as the same Smith people are also in the DNA tree I am working on.

In another tree I have some unexplained Smith DNA matches with someone descended from William Smith and Salome Smith through Joseph 1832 and Sophia 1841 so my intention is to try to solve that at some point but I have a lot of Smith's to sort through.

I think Jemima Smith has other children unknown to me as yet.

I have quite a few Gray's to follow up on but no DNA available to work with.

I'll see if I can find Robert Dawson's Smith book and I think there might be another one written by Richard who sometimes posts on here.

Many thanks
Kind regards
Amanda

Hi Shane,

Yes I believe William Welch was a sibling of John Welch, John was a twin with Sarah

The DNA gets very interesting!
Sophia McLean I have one DNA match showing but most are from Charles 1806

Kind regards

Evening,

I would be interested in joining in with the DNA of this family as I have been working on some Matches for a friend descended from Crissany who married John Welch and I think belongs here along with another sibling Henry both Baptised together in Sandy, Bedfordshire 1813

Kind regards
Amanda

Afternoon,

Did he marry again in 1917 to Lucy Williams?

This Cert has Sarah Ann Turner crossed out in the space for his Father, I wonder if it is his mother?

Kind regards

Evening,

Am happy to help where I can.

Job 1871 was where I started this, so Polly is Mary Ann, she died in 1906 and yes he married Eliza Hedges but I haven't been able to place Eliza's parents yet among all the Hedges I have done.

Emily Webb is interesting, she could be one of mine, will have to check her out

Kind regards
Amanda

Evening,

That's a stunning bit of research John, very well done

I didn't have Ruth daughter of Henry but now I can fit her in, thank you

Henry and William are brothers among others, they all tended to name their children the same which is a bit of a nightmare for us especially when the children are not registered.

The Birth Cert would confirm Ruth's birth date but it is the same family although I still don't know what happened to Ruth the daughter of William and Emma!

Kind regards
Amanda

Evening,

I have done some research on the Gaskin family and have a Ruth Gaskin born about 1873, she is a sibling of Job Gaskin born about 1871 among other children.

Their parents are William Gaskin and Emma Maria Webb who married in Halsted Essex on 25 Dec 1858, if this is the same Ruth as the one you are looking for I can't say for sure but worth looking into.

All these travelling families are hard to follow up and complete any of them.

Kind regards
Amanda

It looks like he was living in England to me.
I tried putting just London in the "Applicants present address" search box and it brings up 412 results lots of which are the same address as you have found
