Wiltshire / Re: Noble Houses - lineage of Longe family
« on: Tuesday 17 December 24 07:06 GMT (UK)  »
Hello.

I am a little late to this, but see you asked about the Rudman family. I am descended from Nicolas Rudman of Rowde. Where are you Rudman from?

Wiltshire / Re: Woodman family of Wiltshire, Yorkshire and London
« on: Tuesday 15 October 24 09:41 BST (UK)  »
 Hi,

Yes, I have his wife & children, alongside his marriage details. Knowing Edwin's sister was in a boarding school probably explains where the younger two were. They were probably put there as orphans. I imagine, the records have been destroyed or are not online.

There were quite a few of us Woodman descendants in touch back years ago, having met on Gene Reunited.

My line is from Henry Augustine Woodman via his son, Albert Jesse. This was my great grandad. They lived in Marlborough before relocating to Portsmouth. He bucked the building trend & became a business man & shoe shop owner.

Many years ago, when I first left home my future husband & I lived in Christian Malford in Wiltshire. My daily bus journey took me through villages I fell in love with. It was year later I started my tree research & realised I have family connections to them all  :)

Hi.

I am a descent of Jesse Woodman. Yes, Ezra went to Yorkshire with his family & then to London. They were masons by trade & many of the siblings moved to make money from the the housing boom that was happening. Haworth for instance, had huge issues with cholera & it's water system around the time of The Austin's living there. Reservoirs were built to help & lots of houses built. His children worked in the cotton mills. However, his brothers went to London & he followed them down. At least one of the children were in a special school in London after their parents died.The West London District School. Two ended up in Bristol. Sadly, I lost decades of research when my laptop failed & I dread to think what was lost.

 My line stayed in Wiltshire where the Woodman name was well known. I have a picture of them working on site.

 Hi.

I live in the area & am admin of The Bere Alston & West Devon Facebook group. As such, I am always keeping an eye on local info & you should look into the Calstock Parish Archive. They too have a Facebook page & a website. They have lots of lovely info at their disposal. Hope this helps.

Hi.
I have also looked in the past, but little is known. What I can tell you is that it was on the current Tesco site & there's a Facebook Launceston History page that might be of interest to you.

Devon / Re: Thomas Henry PEEK b1864 Plymouth
« on: Thursday 16 February 23 17:06 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

I have looked at all of those records. It's definitely him in Stenalees, but Ottery is far from Plymouth & why would he change his name from Robert to Thomas? Perhaps when the DNA results come back they may hold a new connection? :-\

Thank you for helping,
Suzanne.

Devon / Thomas Henry PEEK b1864 Plymouth
« on: Thursday 16 February 23 13:56 GMT (UK)  »
Hi All,

I need help & I am totally stuck.
Thomas Henry Peek b1864 Plymouth married Mary Jane Bonthron Martin in 1895. I can trace him from 1881 when he is a servant & as a married man, but I cannot find his birth record. The only Henry Thomas Peek born in 1864 is in Newmarket. I have tried all sorts of combos based on his first & surname. Since this morning, know his father was James Peek, labourer as stated on his marriage certificate (1895, St Jude's, Plymouth). Yet still I am none the wiser. Can anyone run an expert eye over this man & see if you can locate him please? He insists he has been born in Plymouth & moves to St Austell, Cornwall.
All the best
Suzanne.

Devon Lookup Requests / Re: John MARTIN & Mary Snowdon PUTT Marriage 1863
« on: Wednesday 15 February 23 22:42 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you!
I had seen that & was going round in circles wondering if I had imagined the info. The Bonthron bit threw me & until I received the marriage certificate I thought maybe they had adopted Mary Jane based on their ages.
The lady who I am researching for remembers snippets of stories from her mum, but had no concrete information. She has paperwork to still go through, but it's mostly photos.
It's the Bonthron bit that is ringing bells on a story she remembers. I am trying to keep costs down for her, but certificates are inevitable. I will have another look tomorrow with fresh eyes.
Again thank you.
Suzanne.
