Jones family-Cleobury Mortimer
« on: Friday 06 June 08 23:25 BST (UK) »

Can anyone help me find out a bit more about this family.

David Jones married Elizabeth Stokes 31st Dec 1792 Cleobury Mortimer.

As far as I know they had two children

William b.1793 C.M.

Jane b. 1795 C. M.

Jane was my GG Grandmother so I know she went on to marry William Russell.

I'd like to find out more about the family in Cleobury Mortimer. If David and Elizabeth had anymore children.
Who were David and Elizabeth's parents.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi,
  my family were also from Cleobury mortimer and while searching today,I could not believe it,I was able to print off a whole register of none conformists births,17 pages for free,you should find it under,"Shropshire None Conformist Registers" but i have a couple of answers for you,
1) James son of David Jones and Elizabeth Stokes,born 2nd feb 1806
2) Elizabeth Stokes born 26 May 1774.parents William and Esther Stokes it says of "Hongar(?Hungary)Hill" in the parish of Cleobury Mortimer.

Hi Joyce341

Thankyou for the info. It's fantastic. I went onto that site but I can't seem to find the list of names.
I've got the list of towns and the different churches but nothing happens when I click on them.
What am I doing wrong.

Hi,
    put in Elizabeth Stokes Jones Cleobury Mortimer in search engine,and then go,you will see shropshire none.conformist registers,there is also a lucy  born 1810.
i found it by chance,put in James Hickman 1812 cleobury mortimer and the records come up,it would,nt let me save it,so i printed and to my surprise 17 pages of records came up.
if you still cant find it let me know,also noticed a martha stokes,possibly elizabeths sister.

Hi Joyce341

What a great find that is. All so clear and free too. I won't get anything done today.
Thankyou so much for letting me know.

Hi Joyce341

I found that David and Elizabeth had about ten children all together. They didn't hang about in those days did they.
It's fascinating looking through the pages at the same names coming up. it seems they all stood as godparents for each other.
 What was Mamleg Hall? Were they catholics? I can't find anything out about it.

Mamleg Hall,
                  is Mawley hall,it is still there in Shropshire,was owned by the Blount Family,St Mary.s was their church,later name changed to St elizabeths Church,I would love to vist it,it is opened during the year,I think from April to September or July,visits are by appointment only.
Have you looked on IGI family search.
if you go to search engine you can find info on the Blounts.also on Mawley Hall,In IGI it has all my family as Mamleg Hall.
