Sheilds family of Patrington

[nutkin]

Anne,

Glad to have inspired.  I just sent my email by PM.  Now I have a bit more to go on with the Shields line.  I was chaising a William Shields who was born in 1834 in Hull and father was Joseph born in Owthorne in 1800. Close but turns out to be wrong after I received William's marriage record in 1857 which had his father listed. I chased about the census and everthing clicked to the family in Patrington.  The ones in Hull/Owthorne never quite made sense with some unanswered moves around the area.

Any how, my William Shields and descendants have worked as farm laborers on estates in Yorkshire and it seems the Patrington crew has the names of kids that match with the use of maiden names as middle names.  I love it when it all comes togher rather nicely.

Well, I am off to pour over all the data you sent.  I am giddy with excitement of a new search!!

Anne,

Question. I was playing around on the IGI and found a William Shields bapt March 3, 1769 in Welwick, the son of William and Margaret Shields.  This is the same year , 1769, as the William you sent married to Martha Crawforth.  DO you know if this William was born in Welwick?  If so, then I may have found a bit more on them in the Patrigton/Welwick area.  In a book I have from the EYFHS, William married Margaret Ellis (of Easington) January 15, 1759 in Welwick.  Furthermore, I have access to a book of Patrington Parish Registers up to 1731 that has tons more.  However, I hate to chase this down until I hear back.  Did that once before and it took more two years to sort it all out.

Thank you. Looks like I am wokring in the correct direction.  One last question tonight.  Where did you get these marriages?  Is it from the IGI or the woman you told me about previously? 

Thank you. I will let you know what else I can dig out!- Kristin
