Burton from Sutton-in-Ashfield

[postheath]

And a tad more info...

Rev Joshua Burton's daughter, Elizabeth, married William Renals of Nottingham 2 Jan 1835. She was a Sutton-in-Ashfield girl, and so I would guess they married there. The date comes from Burke's Peerage (1914 edition) as William and Elizabeth's son Joseph became Lord Mayor of London and ended up Sir Joseph Renals, 1st Baronet. Be nice to see if that marriage entry is in the Anglican registers. Didn't know about that quirk!

By the way, the Renals were Particular Baptists too, in Nottingham.

Hello.... 

It seems Tribec's post has been missed.... a belated welcome to Rootschat!

Thanks for adding to the information and every bit helps in building the picture and for other researchers looking in the future.

Postheath.... nice find of yours re Elizabeth Burton!

This must be the marriage you refer to....

That's the marriage, thank you! Add that to the tree

You are welcome 

I see there was a marriage Bond for William Renals and Elizabeth Burton which can be obtained from Manuscripts and Special Collections - Kings Meadow Campus, Lenton Lane, Nottingham, NG7 2NR.

Thank you Postheath for the further information, indeed it came as I was on the phone to my aunt in Canada.  I am hoping that my aunt can find what we know of the Burton family, and send it on to me.  I failed to pick up that branch of our tree whilst out in Canada this summer. 

We have still failed to find any further information with regard Joshua Burton snr.  I think some research in Bramley/Leeds might be necessary to find further information out.  I will also ask my aunt for a copy of the letter previously mentioned.

All looking good! Be interesting to see where this leads!

From the census records, Elizabeth seems to have been born around 1812 (so the license info must mean just 'over 21') and that should narrow down who her mother is. If anyone needs it, Elizabeth died 24 Jan 1890 (according to Burke's peerage) in Nottingham.

We know from another thread about the Burton's that Joshua snr, and this family loved naming children after each other which makes it confusing, married a woman called Elizabeth, however I doubt this is the one and the same.   Now Snr, had 3 children, 2 daughters and a son (Joshua jnr), and as neither daughter was called Elizabeth, I'm going to hazard a guess that Joshua jnr, who was born in 1775, was Elizabeth's dad.  I haven't got the information at hand, as to whom he married or perhaps someone else might.

I did give a few marriage details including this one in #reply 7 of this thread.

Marriage at St Mary's, Sutton in Ashfield - 24th January 1799
JOSHUA BURTON & ELIZABETH HICKTON, both of this parish, were married in this Church by Banns.
Hence legally published this twenty fourth of January in the year of our Lord 1799
By me Tho's Hurt, curate.
This marriage was solemnized between us -  JOSHUA BURTON & ELIZABETH HICKTON

That's the one I was making reference to, though I didn't think we were sure if that wasn't senior or junior.
