Essex Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Rebecca Posford
« on: Tuesday 01 November 11 10:05 GMT (UK)  »
I think that it is possible that her father William Posford was born in Layer de la Haye in Essex in 1783.
There is a website which details many of the Posfords. Its a bit complicated but I think that he had a brother Stowers Posford.
Rebecca's son William Posford Cook became William Stowers Posford Cook on his daughter's birth certificate in 1890.
I initially thought that this was just an affectation but now hope it to be a clue.
What I need to track down in the marriage of her parents.

Essex Completed Lookup Requests / Rebecca Posford
« on: Thursday 04 August 11 13:21 BST (UK)  »
On the 20th May 1844 William Cook married Rebecca Grimes, widow nee Posford at the parish church Rochford, Essex. Her father is registered as William Posford , profession - Miller. She died with her new born daughter Rebecca Possford Cook in 1851.
I have searched without finding any trace of her and would be grateful if anyone has any clues as to her birth or parentage? She claims on the 1851 census to have been born abt 1814 in Rochford.

Have you seen the Radwinter website where the parish records have been posted from 1813. There you will see the BMDs of the Baynes in Radwinter?
The marriage I have found is on the IGI but Baynes is spelt as Beans. I sent for the Birth cert of John and Hannah's youngest child to get her maiden name. I know that the IGI isn't always correct but for now I am going with that.
John and Hannah are on the 1841 census living at Swans Radwinter with 3 children, Alfred, Arthur and William. He is also on the 1851 although he gives his birth as Wimbish, Hannah had died by this time, again you can get a record of her burial on the Radwinter site.
I was told yesterday that the Baynes family was one of the oldest in Radwinter, but as is always the case, they did stick to the same names and as you say that can be very confusing.
Hannah died in 1847 and John married Mary Francis 1852 as you say. He died in 1867

Hi
I have been over to Radwinter today and was hoping to see their Archivist, but he wasn't there but have spoken to him on the telephone and he is going to mail me all the research he has done on the Baynes in Radwinter, so hopefully that will answer at least some of my questions.
I believe that the John b.1804 is the one that I am looking for as his age at death and burial, from the Radwinter web-site, makes his birth 1804, but I could be wrong.
I too imagine their line to go back to Thomas Baines and Ann Mallyon but am hoping to have that confirmed. It is a pity that Essex didn't extend their web site to cover the years up to the beginning of the BMD.
If any of this would help your search let me know and I will send you the information when I receive it.

Thanks for replying.

The John Baynes I am looking for married a Hannah Bradman and their children led to my late mother in law and I am hoping to find his parents. I have searcvhed the Essex on-line parish records but they only go up to the 1750-60s.
I will look at detail at your response and get back to you.

Julia Baynes was baptised at St Mary the Virgin Radwinter on the 8th January 1815, her parents being John and Mary Baynes. You can get all the information that you need on the website for radwinter parish church, they have posted the BMD for the parish from 1813 to the end of the 20thc.

Essex Lookup Requests / Re: BAYNES family at Chrishall Grange in 1861 and 1871 Census

The Ernest Baynes 1860 was my mother in law's grandfather, he moved to Poplar in London where he married had a son and was employed as a police officer, but went home to Chrishall where he died in 1891. His widow Mary re-married and moved to Hebburn Tyne and Wear where his son Alexander William Baynes, known as William, can be found on the 1911 census.
