Once again, thank you Alan! I think I do already have details of these children, but I am going to be away until the middle of next week, so I won’t have access to my files until then. I’m going to have to ask for help about a slightly earlier period in the Money family history when I get back, so thanks in advance to you (or anyone else!) who can help on that.

In the meantime, wishing everyone a lovely week!

Hello everyone, I'm late to the party here, but would be interested in getting in touch with MattD30, as it sounds as though you have access to a lot of family info. I'm currently working on my husband's family tree. He's descended from Walter Money's brother James Henry (the architect) and I'm trying to find out whatever I can both about James Henry's son Frederick (my husband's great grandfather), and about Walter and James Henry's ancestors.

At the moment I'm stuck on Walter and James Henry's grandparents. I have their parents as John Money (1785-1874) and Maria MacLachlan (1794-1884), but I don't know where or when John and Maria got married.

Nor do I know John's father (let's call him "X" Money), or his paternal grandfather ("Y" Money), although it looks as though "Y" Money, born around 1720, was the son of Joseph Money (b.1656). I've managed to get a line back from Joseph Money to Richard Money, born around 1500, who married Ann Andrews in Sutton Courtenay, Berkshire, in 1546 - but I have lots of gaps!

Matt, if you have any contact with living descendants of James Henry Money (or indeed Walter), I'd be fascinated to get in touch with them as well, to see if I can add to any of our family lore.

Thanks in advance! I have to make three posts here before I can PM or be PM-ed by anyone, so I'll have to think of some more things to say :-)

All the best, Sarah
