Searching for an age at time of death Worster Family

[drewsankie]

Well that is great,
The only thing that does not fit, is in his will he mentions his wife as Jane ? The Bland would fit in perfect as latter on the fly boats they operated from Long Buckby and Braunston were called Worster, Stubbs and Bland ! My gt gt Grandfather was born in Worster Wharf yard, Bridge St, Northampton.
They only thing i can think of is perhaps Elizabeth is called Elizabeth Jane ?

So he was married before, I had another look at the will as it 3 pages long ! and does say something about if his sons had of survived perhaps from the 1st marriage ?
The clue is trying Edmund york Abbey married, as we know he married the step daughter Mary, so the christing of Mary to Richard and who ?

  Ian..

  Is Jane featured in the same order of the will....?

  If so is she Williams wife....?

   I had one like this a couple of years ago and it led me to follow the wrong one of cousins both born within 4 weeks of each other same village same name.

  If his wife is Jane wouldn't she feature higher in priority?

  Just a thought.

Here is a little piece of the will which shows his wife to be Jane
she indeed did get a lot more in the will

[drewsankie]

Jane is mentioned many times but she is the first to be mentioned
So Edmund york Abbey was born in 1800 Watford, Northants
I wonder if Jane is a Cowley or and Abbey then ? if she is with them in 1851

  Hi Ian how about this....

  Edmund York Abbey  m Mary BLAND
  21 March 1834
 St Luke Old St Finsbury London.

  Does that make Mary (step dau) daughter of Elizabeth?

Ok that sounds good,
I need to sit down and try and work this out...
i did find this
On the IGI there is also a Jane Abbey Christened 20th July 1792 Watford,
Daughter of Richard Abbey and Elizabeth
But i cannot find a marriage for her.
As there is for Elizabeth the year after.

Hello Sandy
Errm now then this could get confusing.
Richard married Elizabeth Bland and then re married to a Jane ?
He mentions Mary his step daughter married Edmund York Abbey.
And there is a marriage for him in London to a Mary Bland.

Which i would of thought should be Mary Worster and not Bland ! ?
Unless she is the daughter of Thomas Bland and he being the brother of Elizabeth.

So who is this Jane, In 1851 she is with the Cowley family who we know he married into the Abbey family, and there is a christing for a Jane Abbey. !
But no marriage of a Jane Abbey to a Worster. ! yet !
Oh yes there is i have just found it LOL
Jane Abbey to Richard Worster 21st July 1834 Market Stainton, Lincs
Bit of a long way from home ?
well that clears that bit back to Mary then !
