Could this be a child of theirs?

Hello Bec03: I am a descendent of the Espins of Sudbrooke, Fiskerton, Washingborough, Horsington and Horncastle (Thomas, John (1775), Richard (1817), Richard Cornelius (1849) but there are other Espin branches in the Lincoln / Horncastle area that are not directly related - most notably the Barlings Espins. Although I can take my direct line back to 1775 there have been Espins in the Lincoln / Horncastle area since the 1600's or earlier. My suspicion is that they came to the area from Spain or the Spanish Netherlands but I have never found any facts or evidence to support that theory. It seems obvious though because Espin is a Spanish surname that actually means "Spain". I have  a reasonable amount of information about my direct line and all the branches of it  If this information is of interest to you and co-incides with your own branch please let me know.

My thoughts are that James and John are close relatives - brothers or, at most, close cousins. I too have traced my family back to James but he seems to be non existent before his marriage to Mary Orwell in 1805.

I've noted that James signed his mark an 'X' on his banns license, and he is of the Parish of Louth. Thomas Espin (James and Johns possible brother), came to Louth in 1790 as a Master of Mathematics at a school in the town. Which would place the family in Louth at the time of James' wedding to Mary.

James and Mary were married at Thimbleby (approx 15 miles from Louth).

Horsington and Thimbleby are close geographically, so, I know its a long shot, but they COULD all be related :)

Any help with connecting these families would be fantastic :)

Hi
How are you progressing with your Espin research. I am descended from the Espins on my fathers side. The Thomas Espin you mention, Master of Mathmatics in Louth, is the son of Thomas Espin, farmer from Bullington. He is the one buried in the Priory Gardens in Louth. I have several times got mixed up with the Woodhall Espins and tried to find a connection with them but failed due to missing records. I was told the Espins came to Lincolnshire originally from Belgium via Holland as drainage engineers but as yet found no evidence of this. I realize this may be old news to you now as your post was nearly 2 years ago. Regards Paul
