Am searching for John Milner Stubbs ... I see that you had a family reunion in 2008 at Beldi Hill Mine .. I am very interested in the fact that part of Beldi Mine was called Jammy Milners Levels .. the reason is that Mary Metcalfe who married Peter Milner inherited fom her father William Metcalfe 1/ 8th of a mine called Beldi Hill Mine in 1766 . William Metcalfe lived at Calverts House Mansion and Calverts House Mansion was inherited by Richard Metcalfe who found a lead vein in 1770s and there was a terrible row about who actually owned the lead .
It seems quite obvious that part of that mine would have been inherited by Marys children ... She had James Milner in 1769 , Elizabeth Milner in 1770 , Peter Milner in 1771 , Margaret Milner in 1773 , William Milner in 1776, Edmund Milner in 1779 and Richard Milner in 1780.
Just wondered if there was any connection ? I can't seem to find any decendants of Mary & Peters children but it would wonderful if I could link up in some way.
I also found that a Palph Milner had something to do with Beldi Hill mine and when Mary & Peter were married Ralph Milner [ along with Richard Metcalfe , Marys brother ] was a witness.
