Yorkshire (North Riding) / George Pease
« on: Tuesday 28 December 10 15:53 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for information regarding George Pease born in Patrick Brompton somewhere between 1810 and 1814.  Parents were Thomas Pease and Isabella Barwick.  Siblings were born in Kirk Leavington.  George left England for Canada in abt 1835 where he married Mary Nicholson also of England.  They travelled on the same boat to Canada.  Mary travelled with her family.

I have posted this information before but have been too busy raising a family to be able to look for one.  My email address has also changed.

A note of interest is that George's sister Margaret married John Graham and lived in Darlington in the 1870s.  They had a daughter Hannah who married John Thomas Sedgewick who was a wine merchant in Darlington.  This information comes from a letter received on behalf of the sister when she was informed of George's death in Canada in 1868.  That was the first known information about George back to England since he left in 1835

My dates and names may not be exact but close as far as any documents and records that have been kept over the years.

Any information would be wonderful.  Thank you to the people who help me find information a couple of years ago.

Regards,
Dawn

Cumberland Lookup Requests / Nancy Gilbanks/Thomas Nicholson
« on: Monday 02 July 07 04:56 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to find out information about the family of Thomas Nicholson and Nancy Gilbanks.  If my research is going in the right direction I believe that these two people are my GGGG Grandparents.  My LDS research shows they had  children Mary Anne, (Feb 1, 1818), Isabella and Sarah in Cumberland, England.  Mary Anne married George Pease, (who was from Patrick Brompton, England) in 1836 in Canada.  They travelled together on the same boat.  My estimation is that they migrated to Canada in 1835.  Isabella marries a few years later to a John Hornby.  The marriage information is part of the Canadian Collection of Marriage Bonds.  Mary and George go on to name their children, Thomas, Nancy, Isabell, Sarah, Mary, Richard, James, Joseph, Ann and George.  If any one has information to confirm that I am heading in the right direction and they have information about Thomas and Nancy I would be thrilled.

Thanks,  Dawn

Northumberland / Pease family Northumberland & Yorkshire
« on: Saturday 31 March 07 05:53 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to find any information about the Pease family of Northumberland/Yorkshire.  My 3X GG was born George Pease, (1810) born in Patrick Brompton to the parents, John Pease and Isabella Barwick.  The LDS site has more siblings: ( John Pease 1816, Ann Pease 1815, Mary Pease 1818. ((who later become Mary Graham)) Hanna Pease 1821, Nancy Pease 1823, James Pease 1825, Thomas Pease 1827, Joseph Pease 1832, Grace Pease 1834.  These siblings of Georges all appear to have been born in Kirkleavington, Yorkshire.  Obviously dates and names may vary slightly in the transcribing.

John Pease born 1816 appears in the census records in 1861, 1871, 1881 as a bank messanger.  I have a copy of a letter written to Mary Pease Graham in 1874 that mentions that John a brother to George worked for the Bank of England in Newcastle Upon Tyne.  Also a brother Henry a farmer was still living during the time of the letter.  Unfortunately I can not find any record of Henry being born.  It may be that Henry is a second name for Thomas or James.

I hope that there may be a Pease relation who can verify information for me.  My counties may be off as I am unfamiliar with England.  George came to Canada in 1835.

Thank you in advance for any information you can supply.

Durham / George Pease
« on: Sunday 11 February 07 04:34 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to locate any information about my 3 x Great Grandfather George Pease.  He immigrated to Canada in 1835.  His birthyear is 1814 give or take a year.  I have a copy of a letter sent by the son in law of his eldest sister, Mary Graham (nee Pease) from May 1872.  The return letter address is 5 Blackwellgate,  Darlington, England.  The letter writter's name is T.T. Sedgwick.  A grocer and wine merchant.  Mary Graham's residence was in Aldbrough, Darlington, England.  Her husband's name was John.  A picture of Mary was included with the letter.  The picture was the from studio of D. Stevenson, Photographer, Darlington.  The letter also mentions that George's parents had been dead some years but that there was two sons and three daughters still living all with considerable offspring.

George's other siblings names may have been, John Pease of the Bank of England, Newcastle Upon Tyne.  Henry Pease a farmer and Sarah Merryweather a farmers wife.  Their residence was unknown as documented in an unknown note from a member of the family in Canada.

Unfortunately I am working with copies of letters that are slightly torn and worn which makes some of the wording a little hard to read.  I am living in Western Canada and George lived and Eastern Canada.  Only my Great Grandfather came west.  There is no one alive to help me with my questions of English origin.

My research in Canada has been successful for events that have happened in Canada.  I am persistant and want to continue the searching in England.  I have contacted some records offices etc. from the Durham area but I am not making any solid connections.  Maybe George was not his name.  Maybe it was a second name or alias.  He did not make any contact with his family after he left England.

Thank you in advance for any assistance you can give me.

Dawn
