Hi Jean, I sent an email to the address you gave (substituting the @ sign of course) but it bounced. Anyway the contents were:
Hi again Jean,
Sorry I am a bit vague. It has been quite a while since I looked at the family and feel a bit out of touch.
My William (umbrella maker)was born in Malton , North Riding of Yorks in 1857. I have (your) Charles’ parents as John Trowsdale born abt 1759 in Gilling and Betty (Elizabeth Brown) born 1763, Gilling. Like I said I have no confirmed link from my Trowsdales to yours but there has to be one. My William, my Great Grandfather must have learned the trade from someone. His father was also William (so was his grandfather )and was born abt 1831 in Bilsdale Midcable), his mother was Elizabeth Nares from Hull.
Like I said I haven’t looked for a few years and had an email from someone saying that the 1911 census was online from there I found Find My Past and am really enjoying it. Doesn’t help with these people though
You mentioned Nova Scotia – there was a Trowsdale who went that way too – Prince Edward Island – Barnabus Trowsdale born born abt 1812 Helmsley. I find my Irish roots a bit frustrating to trace before they moved to Durham.
Anyway, nice to talk to you again, you can see I have changed my address too. Haven’t spoken to Mike in a while – I have also been trying to find Karen who had a milkhill email address which is now bouncing. She has a lot of Trowsdale info too.
Cheers for now,
David McArdle
