Priscilla Mary Waller
« on: Monday 04 February 08 22:38 GMT (UK) »
Looking for help on Priscilla Mary Waller b.abt 1798, England.

IGI shows Priscilla Mary Waller m. William Ephraim Snow on 11 May 1819 at Islington, London.
IGI also shows they had a dau. Priscilla Derrick Elliot Snow b.20 Mar 1820 London, England.

The name Elliot runs through much of the Snow family as a christian name (both male and female). William Snow b.abt 1795 came from Devon, a county also with many Elliot famlies.  The 'Derrick' in the dau. Priscilla's name suggests a connection with a Derrick family. There is a Charles Derrick who married a Priscilla Benge in 1785, and had a dau. Priscilla Derrick (all within the contemporary time-frame).

I would like to find if there is a link between Priscilla Mary Waller (above) and this Priscilla Derrick - or are they the same person - and would be grateful for any help. Thanks.

  That will probably crop up as you get deeper your Genealogy.You would need to look in archives because not all research can be done on the net.

Hi Celia, Thankyou for your reply. Regretfully I have to rely on what I can find on the net, genealogy sites, family trees, and from others researching the same people as me. I wish I could get out to Parish Churches and Burial sites, Record Offices etc, but that is not possible. Eventually, the info I seek will turn up - it's out there somewhere! Regards John.

Doctor Doomuch, could you post the info you already have on this? eg. IGI references.

I'm sure somebody out there could at least hazard a guess as to why there might be possible discrepancies in the surname

Re: my previous post:-
My error - the marriage of William Ephraim Snow and Priscilla was reported in The Times (NOT on the IGI) in May 1819 describing William as a surgeon of Mile End, London, and Priscilla as the youngest daughter of Charles Derrick of Islington. This suggests that Priscilla's maiden name was Priscilla Derrick.
The birth of Priscilla Derrick Elliot Snow on 20 Mar 1820 is shown in the IGI Batch C097881 Call 0596969 with her (non-conformist) christening on the same record. She was christened a 2nd time on 22 Apr 1863 (in Anglican church), shown in the IGI Batch C055764 Call 0596916-7.
In BOTH cases of Priscilla's IGI records, her parents are shown as William Ephraim Snow and Priscilla Mary Waller.
Any help or suggestions regarding this apparent anomaly will be greatly appreciated.
