Flintshire Lookup Requests / Re: Fox family Ferry Bank Farm Sealand
« on: Wednesday 01 October 08 00:07 BST (UK)  »
Hello Hugh
     I am sorry to say I can not help you with info relating to the farm. I am trying to find info on the Heyes family that set up the brewery with John Fox in 1844.
I have a Henry Heyes that lived next to Thomas Fox an occupier of land in Puddington Cheshire. This info is taken from the 1843-1844 Chester District Polling Records...... Hundred Broxton. I am not sure if it is the same Fox family, maybe just a coincidence. I am sorry to say I am not sure where Ferry Bank Farm is?

Regards

Chris

Hi Jeannie

          Thank you so much for your info. My sister and I spent Saturday night going through census and when we lost Sarah trailed through deaths and Marriages. William Heppel was one of the names we found, so thank you, you have verified what we found. Sue and I are so grateful for all the assistance you are giving us. We have started a Maybe Heyes / Hayes tree.

Hi Jeannie

Thanks a million for the info. It gives me another way to go. I think I will have to get Jane's and John's marriage certificate to see if her father was Henry!

I'm so lucky my husband does not like the computer so it's all mine.

Hello JeannieR

Thank you for replying to my message so quickly.

First my apologies Jane was Jane HEYES not Banks (working on two names and got them mixed up when writting to you).

If I am Correct Jane's father was Henry and Her mother Elizabeth nee Fairclough (both from Ormskirk Lancashire) and at one time between 1841 and 1851 the Heyes and Fox family were neighbours in Puddington Cheshire.
Jane married John in 1843.

I have found the 1851 census showing the Fox and Heyes family.
John Fox              aged 35   Head         born Hawaden  Brewer Master Castle Hill Brewery
Jane Fox              aged 33   Wife          born Liverpool
Elizabeth H          aged 07   daughter   born Hawarden
Sarah                  aged 05  daughter    born Hawarden
James Fox           aged 25  Brother       Born Howarden
James Heyes      aged 31  Br in Law    Born Halsall Lancashire    Partner in the firm.
Thomas Heyes    aged 45  Br in law    Born Ormskirk Lancashire
Henry Heyes       aged 45 Br in Law    born Liverpool
Thomas Heyes jr aged 21 ser             born Halsall  Lancashire
Ann Heyes           aged 24 visitor         born Halsall
   

 Jane is not with the family in 1841 but James and Henry and Ann are with their parents (their ages match). They are in Puddington Cheshire.

In 1861 census john is married to an Ann. A John Fox married an Ann Heyes in liverpool in 1859. I am taking it that Ann was Janes sister.

All my finding's are somewhat speculative at the present until I can fit the pieces together. Elizabeth is the last piece of my puzzle. So any help you can give will be appreciated.

Kind Regards

Chris

I am trying to find out about Jane Banks who married John Fox, also intrested in James Banks who set up the brewery with John. Does any one know of their parents and where they came from.
