Hello Fellow Rootschatter,

I've seen your posts on the Shadforh family, and I wonder if yours are connected to these?

John Shadforth m 1691 to Margaret Smith in Pittington, Co Durham

Their children (all born in Pittington)-

Thomas b1692
George b1694
William b1696
Margaret b1699
Robert b1702
Mary b1707

Mary married Anthony Simie (b1706 in Sunderland) on 4 Feb 1732 in Durham city.

I've found two children of theirs, both born in Sunderland -

John Shadforth Simie b1733 Margaretta Simie b1734

I'm researching my own Simey family, but I'm also interested in family connected by marriage.

Grateful for any info.

Regards,

Emmy

Hello Emmy

I am not sure where my Shadforth's came from prior to the mid 1700's. The oldest ancestor I have on this branch is Robert Shadforth b. C1722 who married Jane Shepard in Hartlepool St Hilda's in 1754.

There maybe a possible connection but I could not be certain about this. I do know that the Shadforth's had a strong connection to the church in Hartlepool and that they held high and upstanding careers within that area.

Regards
Brian
