Somerset / John Thorne / Thorn
« on: Thursday 17 July 25 09:39 BST (UK) »
I am helping my cousin researching her family. Perhaps someone can help please.
John Thorne married Marston Bigott 16.5.1825- he is a widower to Mary Bishop, spinster. John & Mary had 2 children Baptised at St John's Frome Amelia 8.7.1826 add Lower Market Pl.occ spinner & John 23.2.1828 add Pilly Vale occ Dye houseman.
There is a death on Ancestry - Burial for a John Thorne 5.9.1830 St John Frome aged 56 yrs - this would make John born about 1774.
Who are John's parents & who did he marry first marriage?
Mary Thorn (nee Bishop) 2nd marriage 26.12.1830 Marston Bigott to John Carter
1841 census Batcox? Frome.
John Carter 30 Cloth weaver, Mary 35, Hannah 10, Samuel 8, Sarah 6, William 1, Elizabeth Osborne 78 Ind. yes (is she connected to family?) John Thorne 14 y.
Immigration to Nelson NZ 'Bombay' 14.12.1842
John Carter 35, Mary 37, Hannah 10, Samuel 8, Sarah 7, William 2.Amelia Thorn 16 Serv., John Thorn Lab 14
Any help would be appreciated. regards, Margaret

Thanks Sikes, Yes, this is the burial site for John at the Omaka Cemetery, Blenheim, NZ. On John and Caroline's Marriage Certificate his father is John. I haven't much hope of getting any further with John. regards, Margaret

Rosie 99 and Trish 1120 - Thanks for looking- Yes, with using the two names, he is a hard fella to track. Also regarding Michael Andrew & Eliza's children in Wiltshire- the only child that seems to be christened was Michael Thomas in 1813. regards, Margaret

My GGG Grandfather was Michael Andrew Penhall Nicholls born around 1791-96. In the 1851 census he is living with his son William at Wiltshire. Michael, Father, Wdr, 60, Painter and Glazier Born Penzance, Cornwall. I am trying to find his parents. There is a possible marriage? Elizabeth Penhall married on 22.2.1784 to James Nicholls. Would someone know Elizabeth and James's children please. regards, Margaret
