Hello Frances
Many thanks for info. Could possibly be them. I had Derbyshire in general also Stannimgton area of Sheffield too. No idea of his parents, but I do know Benjamin married in Penistone Jan 1827 to Ann Green .My Gt Gt Grandmother was their daughter born Norton Derbyshire nr Sheffield in 1847.  She went on to marry David Payne Ward at Ridgeway Derbyshire in 1870. Regards Pam

I have Benjamin's parents as John Twigg and Judith Sleigh.

[JudeR]

George Twigg was the witness at my Gt gt grandfather's wedding in 1848.  His name was Williamson and lived in Scropton Derbyshire at the time. (as did George).  I have noted the name TWIGG on cemeteries in the area too.

Hello Lyn

A BIG BIG thank you for the information.

I can now work backwards from John and Judith.

I cannot tell you how much it means to get through the brick wall.

You are welcome.  It's been less than a year since I made it past John born 1816, Eyam, DBY to his Father, William.
