Hello .. I'm a beginner with this, but so far, I've managed to trace my tree Mayer (Journeyman Potters in Scotland) back to John Mayer, who married Elizabeth Hodgkinson in 1793 in Wolstanton .... I know there is a connection with the Pottery industry but I'm now a bit stuck.  After reading your post, I'm wondering if my John Mayer is Samuel's brother John Mare/Mayer born in 1769? Cany anyone help?


Hi Maggie,

Sorry John Mear 9-4-1738 says see will 1823.
He married Sarah Whalley 23-8-1766 Wolstanton.

They had Samuel1767-21-7-1835 (I think) ist mayor of Newcastle 1833. He married Margaret Pepper 1773-1859 daughter of the famous John Pepper architect (Newcastle)

It looks like Samuel had a brother John 1769-1823 Bucknall. and Felix who married a Elizabeth Saunders.

Samuel and Margaret married in Bucknall 1794.

Samuel had Maria who married a Turner

Eliza who married a Wardley,

Samuel John and lots of others 10 in fact!

This is a handwritten tree by Jane , Samuel's sister.
If we can link Elijah and Samuel I have the tree which links the family to the Lords of the Manor at Norton Hall. This is William de la Mare and takes us back to Richard the Lionheart!

If any dates don't tally, check back with me as this is handwritten as I say.
Best wishes,
Patricia
