Hi Gereon
It would appear that Methodist religion is certainly a commonality, as most of my line were! The Wesleyan records have provided a good lead and many of my family in the 1800's were either married or christened in Wesleyan chapels. Cheers! SS.

Can anyone help me. I am trying to trace my husbands family tree.  His grandmother was a Fenwick before she married and became a Partridge in 1939.  Does anyone know how I can get any info on the Fenwick family, as she has little knowledge of her family history.  She does now that it is definately the desendents of the famous John Fenwick.  She is also a decendent of a Lord Piddington. If anyone has any info, would very much appreciate it.  Thank you

Hi Adam.
Welcome to Rootschat.
As this query is very old you may not get a reply from anyone who is related to the Northumberland Fenwicks.

If you go to FreeBMD there is only one Jeffrey Fenwick born in the 1920's but in Lincolnshire.
(1929 to be precise)

Its strange as Trees have him born 19 Aug 1930 but birth reg is 1929.

OK have his Bapt;

05 Sep 1929, All Saints, Winterton, Lincolnshire
Birth 19 Aug 1929****
Parents JOSEPH EDWARD and SUSAN AMELIA Fenwick
Father a Bricklayer
Abode 3 Water Lane
(Source FreeREG)
1939 register Family is at that address.

Birth Reg of Jeffreys Father;
FENWICK, JOSEPH  EDWARD mother mmn     MIDDLETON*** 
GRO Reference: 1894  D Quarter in GLANFORD BRIGG  Volume 07A  Page 697

Joseph is never with his Parents on Census/
1901 with his Aunt/Uncle the Altofts (Tom Altoft married Sarah Ann Fenwick 1884)
Also there in 1911.



Sarahs marriage is on FreeREG her Father Edward Fenwick a Labourer.
www.freereg.org.uk

Marriage of Joseph Edwards parents is there also 01 Jun 1885
Joseph Fenwick Father Edward, Rebecca Middleton Father John

At this stage I can follow the Family back to Edward Fenwick  c 1811 but all in Lincolnshire.
