Hi Deetwin  :D

I have been going around in circles most of the day. (Mary) Ann Lee was quite a 'lady' LOL

I read through the other thread you have re; Edward Tuckwell ,  I saw that he was arrested in Uxbridge but didn't see where he actually stated he was born there!

Got to pick up kate in a minute ...but will be back.

Can you find the refs for the 1841 ....

Great to 'see' you! Our 'twinship' seemed to have happened a lifetime ago!!!!!  ;D ;D

Hi Deb.
I've now posted the corrected census references. Later I'll get Barbara to change it in the original.

Ann (Mary Ann) Lee certainly had a "colourful" past. She's my children's ggg-grandmother!!!! 
Talk about skeletons in the cupboard.   :o

For anyone interested, here's the thread to my Edward Tuckwell in Australia thread....

Hi Dee

Thanks for the refs. I am not familiar with Yorkshire so I have no idea if benjamin is the right guy.

I had spotted Ann in Doncaster with her mum and siblings ...where was John, her dad, the horsekeeper?

I looked for a Mary Lee but couldn't find one that fit! I wonder what she was baptised as ...Mary Ann?

Who were the witnesses to the Lee/Clegg marriage?

The articles in the newspapers re Benjamin jnr and Susannah were rather, as you say, shocking... although Ann did say they were half siblings! I wonder if that's the truth?

Do you know what Edward died of?

What did ESQ. mean in those days ...as the article regarding Ann Clegg/Tuckwell nee Lee's marriage to E Brown states that he was E Brown Esq. and she the widow of Edward Tuckwell Esq. 

More questions than answers, I'm afraid.  :-\

I have no idea as I have yet to able to locate a possibility in the 1841 census.

I looked for a Mary Lee but couldn't find one that fit! I wonder what she was baptised as ...Mary Ann?
Your guess is as good as mine! She used the names Mary Ann, Mary & Ann in various Australian records.

Who were the witnesses to the Lee/Clegg marriage?
One was an Edward Willington....at least I think that's what it says. I'll have to get the other one deciphered.

The articles in the newspapers re Benjamin jnr and Susannah were rather, as you say, shocking... although Ann did say they were half siblings! I wonder if that's the truth?

Do you know what Edward died of?
I'll have to check and see if I have that information.....have a transcript of his death somewhere in my files.

What did ESQ. mean in those days ...as the article regarding Ann Clegg/Tuckwell nee Lee's marriage to E Brown states that he was E Brown Esq. and she the widow of Edward Tuckwell Esq. 
Esq. meant esquire.

More questions than answers, I'm afraid.  :-\

All I know about Doncastger is that it is a place where there were a fair few gypsies around the place and still are. I have physical descriptions of Edward Tuckwell and Benjamin Clegg junior and also descendants of Ann Lee and Edward Tuckwell, and it makes me wonder.

I guess this could be a possibility for John Lee the horsekeeper in 1841.....

Hi Dee,

Do you need anything looked up at the NSW State Records Office?  OH and I will be there this coming Friday and Saturday.  ;D  mind you OH thinks we will find what we are after, this Friday but I have booked overnight accomodation because I know he will find more questions after we find some answers  ::)  

In the meantime .....   ::)  Do you think there's any NSW connections I can look up in my own off line resources for your CLEGG/LEES lot?    For example, did any of them get to the Western Division of NSW circa 1850s to 1950s .... ;D  ;D

Many Cheers,  JM

Hi JM,

That's a kind offer.   :)

The only link with NSW that I know about is the infamous Benjamin Clegg junior, who died in Broken Hill.
Details are on this thread....
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,608565.0.html

I think I'll put a link to this on that thread in case anyone else on the Australian Board is interested.

Hi Dee

When I asked about "esquire" I wonder if it meant they were property owners, gentlemen etc.?
