Benjamin George Pyne
« on: Tuesday 12 August 25 19:53 BST (UK) »
Hello genealogy friends,
I'm hoping to get some extra eyes or some tips on how to find a man by the name of Benjamin George Pyne.

What we know of him:
- supposedly work at a big house in or near Havant, Hampshire in the late 1860s
- fathered Walter Benjamin Pyne with Ann Neale while working at the big house in Havant in 1867; they did not marry and she ended up marrying Edward Ward
- Great-granddaughter shares many DNA matches with a Pyne family from Leighton Buzzard

I have been helping my DNA cousin with trying to figure out how her Pyne fits in with my line of Pynes. She shares a decent amount of DNA with my dad and myself as well as many shared matches who are descended from George Whiting and Sarah Eliza Pyne.

Sarah Eliza Pyne was the daughter of Giles Pyne and Elizabeth Shepherd. They had a son named Benjamin Giles Pyne who could possibly be the father but the DNA match to one of Benj. Giles Pyne's descendents doesnt seem high enough.

I'm hoping someone is able to help me find a Benjamin George Pyne who was probably born sometime in the 1840s, possibly in Leighton Buzzard. Thanks so much!

My best option seems to lead back to Benjamin son of Giles as well. He's the only Benjamin Pyne/Pine born Bedfordshire  in a 20 yr date span

Ben from Bedford 1871, he is with the family you mention in 1851.

Four other Benjamin’s on 1871 census born 1825-1845 but in 1851 only two, the above and this strange one below, GRO birth name may be Payne?

Looks like his surname was Pink - stepfather is Knowlton, married Jane Pink in 1847
