Gloucestershire / Re: Zion Road??
« on: Saturday 20 April 24 12:35 BST (UK)  »
Zion Road can be seen behind Trinity Church, sometimes spelt Sion Road, running from Stapleton Road to Clarence Road on Know Your Place map
https://maps.bristol.gov.uk/kyp/?edition=&map
today it would have run from 7 Stapleton Road to the Telephone exchange in Clarence Road
It can be seen clearly on the 1947-65 map, (on the 1874 map it's called Pig Lane)

Hi
Is it be possible to find a Flook's headstone at Kingswood Wesleyan Methodist Chapel (Ruins) graveyard, Blackhorse Road, Kingswood, Bristol? I would dearly like a photo of it as is my gr-gre-great grandfather. He married Sarah BRAIN (died in 1867);  (2nd marriage) Emily SMITH

Sonia, many thank's for your further info on John Charlick. I thought that there must have been 2 Charlick families in Plymouth, but it seems that they were all one & the same!  My line comes from the son of John & Mary (England) Frederick George Charlick, who married Susannah Williams, (a nightmare, trying to sift through all the Williams) so it looks as tho' your hubby & I are "Genes connected". My mothers' mother was Blanche Susan Charlick,( dau of Frederick & Susannah) she married David Brash in Devon where my mother was born in 1910. They moved up North here,when my Mother was about 9, where Blanche Susan died aged only 37, in 1922..    Regards Dolly.
Dolly, I have been researching my sister-in-law's family. She is also descended from Frederick George Charlick and Susannah Williams, through their son Frederick George Charlick, who was her grandfather. I too have drawn a blank on Susannah Williams. Did you ever manage to find out any more about her? Regards Viv

Monaghan / Re: Brethren - Lisagore, Co. Monaghan

I am interested in two HAMILTON families who had farms beside each other in Lisagore townland, Co. Monaghan. (Parish of Donaghmoyne). This is them in 1901:

One family was Presbyterian and attended Broomfield Presbyterian Church. The other was “Christian Brethren”. I suspect they too were Presbyterian at one time before becoming Brethren, but there’s no sign of them in Broomfield Presbyterian church records (which go back to 1841). Anyone got any ideas where they would have attended church? Also do Christian Brethren practice infant baptism?

Also interested in these families. Samuel Robert Hamilton, eldest son of Scott and Sarah Hamilton, was a grocer in Main Street, Boyle, Roscommon in 1901. He also was brethren. In 1902 he married Annie Jane Taylor, the sister of James Taylor. James Taylor was a linen merchant, born in Coolaney, Sligo, he moved to New York in 1898. In 1905 he became the world wide leader of the Exclusive Brethren, later called Taylorites after him. Samuel and Annie Hamilton and their descendants were also part of this group. Exclusive brethren, unlike open brethren do practise infant baptism.
