Maria Poole

[cathleen]

I would appreciate it if someone could look up Maria Poole my g-g-g-grandmother ...supposedly born in England...I have her birthdate as February 4, 1845 and/or 1840...her parents were John Poole and Mary Hawkins.  She may have been born in India...there is conflicting information.

Thank you so much!!!!

Hi Cathy

Do you have any idea where abouts in Dorset you think she might have been born so i can narrow down the search

No, i am sorry...i have no clue...she could have been born in India as I mentioned...as that is the information that appears on the New Jersey 1910 Census...all the others only say England.

Thank you so much for trying to help me...Have a great day!

  Hi Cathy,
i had a look at the birth reg and only one seems to be born in 1845 in Cheshire. In the 1851 Census  i think this is likely to be her.

      1851 Worth Cheshire HO107/2158 Park Lane Brook Cottage

           John Poole    Head 45   ? Coals  Marple Cheshire
           Mary Poole    Wife          33                Poynton
           Walter Poole  14  son     Coal Miner  Worth
            Maria Poole   6  dau                          Worth
            Mary Poole     3  dau                         Worth     

 At the moment i cant seem to find the one that was born in 1840 Jan Feb Mar

Sorry it has taken me so long to respond to you ...computer was down for a few days....what a great detective you are...can you please tell me what Worth, and Marple Cheshire is...a town? a region of England?  and would 2158 Park Lane Brook Cottage be the address...how interesting a coal miner...now to figure out why they went to Australia...if this is the right family.  Do you know how I could verify the information???is there somewhere else I should look for more Marias?    THANK YOU so much... you have been absolutely wonderful and I appreciate your finding out this information for me...

  Right see if i can put this down so it makes sense..... This is the same family in 1861...Park Lane RG9 2574 (Same address)

                   John Poole  Head  56  Banksman of coal (Pit) Marple Cheshire
                   Mary Poole  Wife    45                                     Worth         ''
                   Walter Poole son    24  Coal miner                     ''              ''
                   Maria Poole  dau     16                                        ''              ''
                   Mary Ann Poole        13                                       ''              ''
                   Charles Poole Deakin  2  grandson                     ''              ''
                   John Henry Poole  son  8 months                        ''              ''


 The other Maria Poole looks like this one....1861....RG9/2610 High Street Congleton Cheshire

                   Maria Poole unm  21  Servant  Morton  Cheshire



     This is the Maria with Mother and Father John and Mary Poole
      Maria PooleOct Nov Dec  1865 Macclesfield 8a 194 married James Davenport


 and then in the 1871 Census......

          Poynton Cheshire   Park Lane  RG10 3668

         James Davenport    Head  26  Coalminer     Cheshire
         Maria Davenport                26   Housewife     Poynton Cheshire
          William Davenport    son    6                              ''
          Sarah Davenport      son    4                              ''
          Thomas Davenport    son    2                             ''

Now i started to think that the other Maria could have been yours bur her mother and father were not called John and Mary. So if the initial Maria is yours she was still in Cheshire with her husband and children in 1871.

 Park Lane 1881 RG11 3487  Poynton Cheshire

    James  Davenport  Head  36  Small Wares Dealer (Silk)   Wilmslow  Cheshire
    Maria  36  Wife                                                                  Poynton  Cheshire
    Thomas Davenport  son  12  Clothing Labourer                    ''
    George Davenport   son 9                                                     ''
    Annie Davenport  dau 6                                                         ''
    James William Davenport son 3                                             ''
    Laura Davenport  dau  1                                                        ''

                                                                                     
       

  And again in 1891......Park Lane  RG12/ 2808   Poynton Cheshire   

    James Davenport   46  Baptist Minister and Grocer  Wilmslow Cheshire
    Maria Davenport    46   Grocer                                  Poynton

     Sarah Phard  dau    24                                             Poynton
     James William Davenport  13 son  Gen Lab                   ''
     Laura Davenport  11  dau                                              ''
     Mildred  5    dau                                                             ''
     Jessie  Grand dau  4                                                       ''     

   
   You say that you are working on info from the New Jersey 1910 census but did you have the maiden name only, as of course you knew her birth date or did you have any marriage details? Cheshire is a county in England.  Marple, Worth and Poynton are towns and /or villages, and the numbers given are all reference numbers for the census details. All these details seem so far removed from New Jersey or Austrailia . But there only seemed to be those two Maria's and as i say the other one didnt have parents who matched your details that you knew

                     best wishes cheryle.f

Thanks Cherlye,
Will look at the information you have given me in more detail tomorrow(Tues)...Maria was in Skipton., Austraila in 1863...how and why she got there from England I don't know...I asssume that she went with her parents...married in New Jersey, USA on Dec. 17, 1869 to Edward Hilton...who I assume she meet here in the states!!!! They both arived in this country in 1868...but u can find not entry of the port...Ellias Island was not in operation...and thus far I can find no records at the other
New York port (Castle Harbor) that  they may have come thru
