Need to find out why Ann Plumb thought she could bequeath this guys money into trust for her children.

Don't think he married so the relation must be his mother

Hi,

Cannot find a marriage for Henry Selby to an Eleanor anywhere
Children’s christenings were:
27 Sept 1765 Thomas
6 Sept 1767 Daniel
4 March 1770 Jane
and of course 21 May 1772 Ann (wife of William Plumb.

Right back to the Plumbs

Found burial of Eli Plumb died 26 July 1880 aged 71yrs buried General Cemetery on 28 July 1880 Grave 20139
Also in same grave are:
1. Alfred Mills son fo Alfred and Ann Mills died 21 March 1886 aged 9 months buried 25 March 1886
2. Elizabeth Plumb wife of Eli Plumb died 10 July 1873 aged 71yrs buried 71yrs.

There is some else in grave but have trouble finding the burial record so don’t know who it is yet.

Good Morning

I have searched for Henry and Eleanor and can find hardly anything.

I did find that they had the 4 children you mentioned.

I think Daniel married a Mary and they had a son Thomas who married Mary Widowson..(that is if I have the right Daniel)

I've been searching to see if I can connect Ann Selby with that Henry Wreight but found nothing.


Eli's wife Elizabeth I have down as Elizabeth Bekhin or Belchin (can't read my own writing..lol)
The Mills in the Grave are Eli's daughter Ann and her husband Alfred MIlls

[swampinstein]

sorry that must be grandson in grave with them

[nottsgirl1]

Hi,

I done the same cannot find anything on Henry Wreight too. Think we might have to draw a blank with that one.

Yes Elizabeth maiden name was Belchin and its Eli's grandson that's buried in the grave.
