Death certificate available for Sarah Trusdell widow of Thomas a city porter died 3 Feb 1854 in Lisson Grove London aged 97 so born ca 1757.

I thought it might be a Trowsdale forebear,  but not.

Hello,
I have only just seen your 2008 mention of Sarah Trusdell and as I am chasing all Trowsdale/Truesdell/Trousdales (and other variations) in the Marylebone/Paddington area of London before 1800 - so far without success - you might be able to help.

My direct ancestor is William Trowsdale who married Sarah Sutliffe in 1805. I have found various other Trowsdales/Trusdells in the same area, but so far cannot link any of them to William, or indeed find a record of his birth. William and Sarah's son Charles (my gx2 grandfather) married Eleanor Haytor in 1838, so I am also interested in the Haytor name.

I also have a Thomas Trowsdale who married Elizabeth Dunn in around 1794 (you mention the name Dunn as well), but am not sure if he is connected.

Our family were the "Umbrella Trowsdales" of London, and I too know about William Trowsdale, umbrella maker, from Yorkshire. It seems too much of a co-incidence and very possible that the London family originated in Yorkshire,  but I can't see any way of linking the two families.

Now I am clutching at straws, so if you can help I will be very grateful.

Hello tossiez,

Nice to hear from you. It is possible we have been in contact before as I have had several e-conversations in the past couple of years on this topic.

I am also descended from Charles T & Eleanor Hayter via their daughter Susannah 1843 - 1926 who married John George Williams. And I too have as yet been unable to connect the Marylebone Trowsdales to their [presumed] Yorkshire origins.

My Dunns originate in Ireland - Ralph [son of John] born Ireland ca 1808 married in 1838 in London. As Dunn is a common name in Ireland I have been unable to take them furtherback.

Email me on [email address removed - rootschatter has made contact] and we can see what information we can share.
