Hi All, my connection is with the Marshalls of Barnsley. Great Grandfather was William Henry Marshall b1857 Silkstone to William & Rachel Marshall married to Dianna Redhall 1879. Was a miner & also in the York Lancaster regiment. Was still living in Barnsley 1911 Census (Dodworth Street). Would love to hear from any other related Marshalls - was a very large family so there must be someone out there. My grandfather was William Arthur Marshall - photo attached.

Hi Kazwald,

Further to my previous post, I have now found that my g-grandfather, William Henry Marshall b. 1857, was the son of Mary Marshall b. 1835;  he was born at Barnsley Workhouse, and Mary never named the father in the birth cert.  Mary was the daughter of Thomas Marshall, b. about 1808 and Sarah Smith.  If you go to the Barnsley list, you will see the whole story there.  Mary was working as a servant in the house of Joseph and Elizabeth McLintock in 1851;  Elizabeth died in 1852 and as I have not been able to find a death in Barnsley for Joseph, I am assuming he was still alive in 1856/57 and that Mary was still working for him then.  I have been in touch with a McLintock descendant (as you will see) and we are trying to work out if there is a connection.

Send me an invite and I will let you have a descendency chart for our Marshalls - there must be a connection somewhere!

Cheers,

Tisy

Hi again Kazwald,

I forgot to include a photo in my last post -  this is of my grandfather William Henry Marshall b. 1890, son of William Henry b. 1857 and Charlotte Bray, with his three sons, from the left -

Andre Lancelot (my father)
William Henry (my grandfather)
William Francis

I think there is a distinct family resemblance to your grandfather, especially with my dad as he got older.  The photo was taken about 1940, and all are now deceased.

Cheers,

Tisy

Hi again,

Sorry, unable to include the photo as the file is too big - will send it to you privately, once I have your email address.

Cheers,

Tisy
