Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Joseph Thornton
« on: Wednesday 14 August 13 14:50 BST (UK)  »
 I have  at last found Joseph Thornton b. 1781  Armley Leeds St Bartholomew's  I have been searching for him 4or more years..his father was John Thornton also of Armley my concern is that John was Christened in 1761 & his first child William was b. 1773 which makes John only 12! his other children were Mary  1775...James 1777....John 1779...Joseph 1781....Ann 1783...Eleanor 1785...Hannah1792 I think this Hannah could have died as another was b. 1799 which was after John's death in 1798 all were b. in Armley  Leeds St Bartholomew's . I have looked for another John who's father was William but cannot find a connection. would you please look this John & his children to see if I have got it right.     Regards Helena (highfield54)

 I remember Cedric & Vera & Brian, I married Peter Tebb son of Violet & Edward. Peter died 4 years ago, but (*) are still alive, so that would make them your cousins. I remember visiting your grandad Cedric when he had the TV shop in Peterborough, and my 2 children who  would be your 2nd cousins.  (*) I do have some info on the Spencers and a lovely photo of Cedric with Edward Tebb, give me your email I will forward what I have to you

Hello Emms   Had a lovely meeting with Beryl who is in the same Hamilton family as me, I had  followed a wrong direction so at first we could not get a connection but we soon found why in my Hamilton group, so got that corrected.
 
Your find in the Elizabeth Gilmore was a great help we think we have found her maiden name  Callaghan we think so we are working together to find her in Ireland.  I am waiting for a birth certificate as you suggested, will let you know.

    Many thanks for your help
                                                      regards Helena.

Thank you Emms for your reply it does seem a tricky one has I have no idea where in Ireland to look, I am meeting up with someone tomorrow with the same lady in her Ancestry so we will compare notes and I will let you know if we find anything.  Yes I think you are correct when you say they look like paupers as 1 child is a coal picker at 18!!  Some look ups are easy but some are just to hard to tackle,
                                             many thanks I will be in touch later
                                                                 regards Helena

 I am trying to trace  a Elizabeth Gilmour b. 1812 on 1851 Census she had a daughter also named Elizabeth who marries James Hamilton which brought her into my ancestry. the 1851 Census shows she had 6 children but no mention of their father,  I would like to know if possible who her parents were,  can you help please.

 I have not searched these Joseph's but I would think he died in Sherburn in Elmet as Ann was still there on the 1851 Census. in the early dates Sherburn in Elmet was in Barkston Ash parish then it changed to Tadcaster and at some point was connected to Garforth...OH FOR A CRYSTAL BALL!! I will follow the 2 that you have given me and let you know what I find.  Many many thanks for your time and searches   

                                 Regards  Helena

 ???I have been searching Joseph for months just keep hitting brick walls, what I have so far is..the Parish
Marriage records which state he was 35 if this is correct then he was born 1779, this also states he married Ann Smith (from Church Fenton) age 30 on the 21 Mar 1814   The last Census he appeared on was 1841 but I can not find any trace of his death which must been in the 1840's as on 1851 Ann his the head of the family, He married & lived at Sherburn in Elmet West Yorkshire, I have been through parish records and found nothing.  I would be most grateful for a lead to follow or some info that he did exsist.     
                       Regards  Helena
