My Newbury/Berkshire family

[Deb Clark Rennie]

Oh and one last thing ... if Totty Mayo was financially comfortable that might tie into the Wiltshire family of Katheren/Katherine Totty Maried  to Thomas Mayo - as she was the one left a tidy sum from her father John Totty.  I also noted that Thomas And Dina Mayo name their first daughter Catherine.

Just a guess but seems to fit ... just not sure why they moved to Newbury that might remain a mystery :-)

Hi Deb,

Info for Thomas Totty Mayo born c1823:

Baptism:
Date 31/3/1823
Name: Thomas Totty Mayo
Parents: John Totty and Mary Mayo
Father's Occ: Cabinet Maker

This might be him with his parents in the 1841 census:

It looks like he married Mary Goodyear in Scotland in 1846 the name Totty mistakenly recorded as Fatty

This looks like him with his family in 1851

here are the birth registrations for the two children show in the 1851 census:

     
MAYO, JOHN  TOTTY      Mother's Maiden Mame GOODYEAR     
GRO Reference: 1851  M Quarter in STOKE DAMEREL  Volume 09  Page 503

MAYO, WILLIAM  THOMAS      Mother's Maiden Name GOODYEAR        
GRO Reference: 1849  M Quarter in OF ST AUBYN IN THE COUNTY OF DEVON  Volume 09  Page 494  Occasional Copy: A


I can't see him in 1861 but this looks like him in the 1871 census:

Re: The death for Thomas Totty Mayo in 1848, this wasn't the son of Thomas Totty and Mary Mayo (nee Goodyear) their son was born and died in Devon in 1847. The Thomas Totty Mayo that died and was buried in 1848 in Newbury was 2 yrs old.  I think that this might be his birth reg as the age fits but no middle name of Totty:

MAYO, THOMAS        Mother's Maiden Name BUTSON        
GRO Reference: 1846  M Quarter in NEWBURY  Volume 06  Page 232


I will see if I can find any clue as to who his parents were next time I'm in town and also look for the baptism for Mary Paradise.


Sorry Deb, I completely forgot to give you this link earlier, re: a query I posted about Joseph and Martha Wade's marriage record:

Quote from a previous post of yours:

"Thank you :-) according to his tree he has John Totty Mayo 1777 he marries Mary and they have a son William Mayo born 1813 Wantage Berkshire? William marries Mary Butson 1839 and has several children including another John Totty Mayo Berskshire Newbury Berkshire 1839 then Mary, Sarah and William all born in Newbury.  He then descends from William (1844)"


So Thomas Totty Mayo born 1846 died 1848 in Newbury was probably the son of William & Mary Mayo (nee Butson) shown in the Quote above.

Can't believe how wondefully helpful you've been!

Another mystery solved ... but then who is John Mayo and Mary Mayo?  With the use of the Totty middle name John must fit in somewhere?  Goodness they are a puzzle!

Will go and rearrange my tree :-) but will leave John Mayo parentless for now.

Thank you!
Blessings

Which John Mayo are you referring to? Do you mean the John & Mary Mayo in the 1841 census that I have posted with son Thomas Living in Mills West Newbury?

[Deb Clark Rennie]

Yes I think so ...  as we've got the wrong parents for Thomas Totty Mayo 1823 the one married to Mary Ann Good Year ... so now his parents are John and Mary Mayo ... I need to figure out who John belongs to To see if I can tie it together with the other Mayo families with a Totty in them ... oh dear does that make sense?

I think that this John Mayo maybe John Totty Mayo c 1777 son of Totty & Amy Mayo (nee North). (Baptism for Thomas Totty Mayo records his father as John Totty Mayo)
If you have access to census images can you look up this 1841 census and see what occupation is recorded for John Mayo please?

[Deb Clark Rennie]

Oh and in 1861 he's with the family in Devon as a prison warden but they have him as Thomas Lotty Mayo but with Mary Ann and they chikdren

Which is what drew me to him in the first place ... was the prison job ... seeing as that was what Jospeh Wade was.

I'm sure these puzzle pieces will meet up sooner or later :-)

Ahhh!  Well that would make sense
