Surname interests around Dudley

Hello Judith
                  There's this marriage on the IGI index

Timothy Billingham + Martha Sillitoe 9Nov 1801 at St Thomas Dudley

I thought it may be of interest as James had children with those christian names.

Unfortunately, Jackie and Judith, that's a submitted entry.  Entries for that year should now be complete on FREEREG but that one doesn't seem to appear under either name.

Thank you all for you help.  I have to confess that I believe I got his date of birth wrong - more likely this was c1806.  I have failed on the leads you have given me so far, but perhaps this new date will ring a bell with someone?   

Best wishes
Judith

Hi
i've been doing my family history for about 3 months now on and off and came across your posts on google,when i had pretty much given up and on the verge of banging my head on the desk . my g g grandfather was joel steventon and his grand father my ggggfather was also joel,im so relieved to find someone else with steventon history, i was wondering if i could ask you where you found your steventon info as im struggling (im a newby to all this) theres so many of them with the same christian names its sending me round the twist! I have steventons from the rowely regis area which then moved to kettering northamptonshire where im based now.also skeldings,waltons and watkins all in the dudley area.
any help would be great and if i can help anyone else feel free to ask.
kindest regards

Hi Jodie,

Joel Steventon (c. 1801-23/4/1875) is my great x4 uncle.

His parents Joseph Steventon and Zealous Dunn are my great x4 grandparents.

Joseph & Zealous married at Dudley St Thomas on 4th Dec 1794 (it's on the IGI and the Worcestershire marriages database that was on the former familyhistoryonline website, and is now on findmypast).

Joseph & Zealous Steventon had seven children (that I know about - their baptisms are on the IGI):
+ George 1795-24/4/1869 (the censuses put him born 1795 or 1796, but I was really fortunate that after a lot of detective work I tracked down the family bible that he started, where he says he was born in 1795)
+ Obadiah (c. Feb 1799 - 15/6/1868)
+ Joel (c. 1801/2 - 23/4/1875)
+ Nancy (c.1805 - ?)
+ Phoebe (c. 1808-between 1881 & 1891)
+ Kerenhappuch (c. 1812 - ?)
+ Gideon (29/10/1815 - ?)

I've not looked at these Steventons for a couple of years, so it's entirely possible that more records have become available, and it might be possible to track them down further.
Where they've got full death dates above, I've bought those death certificates and could let you have a copy.

George married Mary Ann Shaw (1795-13/4/1868) at Old Swinford, 24/5/1818 (Worc marriages & IGI) as in my post above, which I'll edit, as some of the info there is now superseded.

Obadiah marrid first Judith Darby (c. 1802-9/11/1840) on 23/6/1823 at Dudley and then secondly, Rebecca Mullett (c.1804-12/5/1884) on 31 May 1841 at Dudley. He had two children with Rebecca.

Joel married Sarah Skeldin (c.1802-26/7/1879) on 23/5/1825 at Dudley and they had 8 children.

Nancy I know nothing about other than her baptism

Phoebe married Christopher Plant (c.1807-1895) on 22 Oct 1827 at Tipton, Staffs. (Got her family's details from a family tree on tribalpages.com and they had 9 children

Kerenhappuch married Samuel Bissell 6 feb 1832 at Tipton, Staffs. I've not yet found anything further on this family.

Gideon I know only from his baptism.

I'm happy to share what I've got, and can email you a download from my family tree software, but we need to exchange email addresses via private message, and I think you have to have made 5 (or 10?) posts on rootschat before you're allowed to use the private messaging facility. I'll see if I can send you a PM - maybe you can read them, but not send them till you've met the number of posts.  If that doesn't work, then you'll have to make a few more posts!

Which one of Joel the elder's children do you descend from? He had a son called Joel, b. c. 1833, but as far as I've been able to trace, he didn't have a son called Joel (which is a bit odd, now I think about it)

Hi,
For info. on the Hancox family, have a look at:

http://privatewww.essex.ac.uk/~alan/family/106.html  and

www.mark23.pwp.blueyonder/BARRET/HANCOX.htm

Haven't found the names you requested but both may give you leads. My maternal grandmother, Lydia Percival, comes from the Hancox family. so I have done quite a lot of research on them
