Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Re: marriage lookup Halifax AMBLER

My old roots web one was but I don't think I have updated it in many many years.

My ancestry user is dkm1987 but the tree is named Vink, after my mother. Her mother was Grace Ambler, daughter of Charles (b. Northowram 1868), son of Enoch (b. Northowram 1832), son of Abraham (b. Northowram 1802), son of James (b. Northowram 1754), son of Timothy (b. Northowram 1721), son of Joshua (b. Northowram 1669), son of John (b. Northowram 1632), son of John (b. about 1610).

Once I proved my line back to Timothy I was able to use Louis Ambler's book. Many years ago I had copied it to a searchable PDF and that made it a lot easier. I have verified some of his information but not all. I have all the corresponding evidence back to Timothy to verify my line to him. But I don't research much anymore.

I have my tree up on MyHeritage (DanKimDec2018) as well as several DNA sites too.

Thanks for the info but that post is from several years ago and since then I have been able to find the baptism of James in 1754. Someone copied my research and then obviously put it on Familysearch with a lot of incorrect info (typical).  This James dies in 1837 and marries Nancy Priestly (Priestley) in 1792. James is listed in the baptism books but because the film is so dark no one was able to transcribe it until I ran the image through processing. Better copies are now available and it's pretty clear. James is the eldest of Timothy Ambler who married Mary Longbottom. This was Timothy's second marriage. His first was Eden Bairstow. Timothy is the son of Joshua Ambler and Hannah Oates.

James' baptism reads "James son of Timothy Ambler of Northowram baptised October 20 1754" Top left entry on the page.

My tree is public on Ancestry.com with all the corresponding ancestry and links to sources.

Hi Dan,

John appears to be in Tavistock in 1851 with Elizabeth (oldest child aged 8 )
1841. I suspected he was in Tavistock unmarried a 20 year old copper miner but family didn't seem right. Then in Mary Tavy I find a John also aged 20 (copper Miner) wife Elizabeth 25 and son William aged 3 months. Appears to be residing in a part of the same house as William 50 (copper miner, not born in Devon and his children including a Susanna) Found Susanna's baptism in Tavistock and her younger brother William's baptism in Mary Tavy listed on the IGI, so this is your John and he is married by 1841, though given his age probably not long married. I would expect the marriage to be in the Tavistock district but alas I am still not spotting it, so may pay to get one of the children's birth certificates for her maiden name and try again once you have that.

All the best

Kris  :)
Kris,
Yes that is the correct John, his father is William and his mother is Susanna Weeks. William and Susanna were married 21 May 1818.

I have seen a marriage for a John Barkell and ELizabeth Nichols in Plymouth but I suspect this is the other John Barkell that you have mentioned as that marriage took place in 1844, well after the birth of Williiam that is seen in the 1841 census living in the same abode as William born c. 1791.

The young William must have died between 1841 and 1846 because in the 1851 census John is listed as the oldest child and another William is only 5 years old.

Thanks for your time in looking though

Thank you very much.

Yes there are a lot of Ambler in NOrthowram. I am trying to tie James to a parent that may be listed in Louis Ambler's book on the AMbler family which then should get me back a couple more generations.

Again thank you

Although I already had that information I do want to thank you.

I am still seeking the marriage of John Barkell to an Elizabeth.

IGI shows
James Ambler marrying Nancy Priestley on 5 Sept 1792, Halifax from the extracted Bishop's transcripts of Halifax Church.

I am trying to find James' age and or where he is from so I can find more on James.

Known Children were
Grace b 30 Mar 1795
Abraham/Abram b. 1 Nov 1802
James b. 24 Dec 1805

Any help in identifying James is greatly appreicated

Cornwall Lookup Requests / Coram, Cornwall request BARKELL

I have a marriage for a WIlliam Barkell to Susannah Weeks that took place in Bere Ferres, Devon on 21 May 1818.

Their son John was born in Bere Alston on 28 Feb 1819 and on his baptism register it states that the parents abode was Coram, Cornwall.

If anyone can tell me more about COram or can find more information on the Barkell/Barkel/Barkle/Barkla  of that area I would appreciate it.

Thank you

Dan
