Thankyou everyone for your information. I now realize there is no way to confirm these Hannah JACKSON’s are one and the same. I would feel more confident except for the fact that Grice was born in Owthorne and Hannah was from Keyingham.

Thanks again for all your inputs Graham ?in Arkansas


Re: Hannah JACKSON

I have the jpg of the Keyingham parish register showing the baptism on 20 Nov 1798, because that page also shows the marriage of my gr-gr-gr-grandparents that year.? The wording is exactly as stated below.

Re: Hannah JACKSON

 

Hi

Birth certificates didn't come in until 1837, unfortunately, when civil registration was introduced. Before this time you're relying on parish registers.?

I couldn't find Hannah and Robert in the 1851 census - but there is a Hannah and Thomas ALVIN in Sunk Island - he's the innkeeper (maybe Robert's brother?)?

I found Hannah and Robert ALVIN in the 1861 census in Paull at?Land Cottage, Saltagh Lands, Paull, Patrington.?

Robert was 61? - so born 1800, in Paull and an agricultural labourer
Hannah was 62 - so born 1799 and gives her birthplace also as Paull - so that gives a timeframe and means Hannah would be about 23 when Grice was born and about 29/30 years old when she married Robert.?

There is a Hannah GREENSIDES daughter of Elizabeth JACKSON baptised in Paull on January 12 1796. Unfortunately she was buried the same day.

The only other one I could find around that time was Hannah WATSON - daughter of Ann JACKSON baptised in Keyingham December 20, 1798. That's a better fit time-wise - and - Hannah ALVIN died aged 84 in Hull in 1883. Her death was registered in Sculcoates - reference March Q 1883 9D 125 - but Hannah ALVIN of Hull was buried on Feb 14 1883 at Keyingham parish church. Sounds to me like Hannah being taken 'home' for burial.?

There are three Ann JACKSONs baptised in Keyingham in time to be Hannah's mum

1772 Ann - June 9, daughter of William (would be 26 when Hannah was born)

1777 Ann 19 Jan - daughter of Thomas (21 when Hannah born)

1780 Ann Nov 26 - daughter of Marmaduke (18 when Hannah born)


There's also a burial in 1805 Ann - daughter of John and Mary JACKSON, July 20 aged 24 - so that gives a birth date of 1871. She would be 17 when Hannah was born.


Ann JACKSON married George WALKER November 13, 1800 at Keyingham.... I wonder, though, if? Ann had a baby daughter, if they wouldn't have just called her WALKER - rather than her growing up as JACKSON??

Ann JACKSON married Henry Parker of Hollym - June 4,1811 at Keyingham

I also found in the York Herald of Tuesday April 12, 1887 a death notice for Grice's wife... JACKSON - on the 9th inst, Jane wife of Grice JACKSON at Withernsea aged 66.?

Hope that's some help

best wishes

Re: Joseph BENTLEY 1814-1874

Thanks for your musings, Lin. There are definitely two Josephs born around the same time in the same area. However, the clincher for me is the 1851 census where Lidian (Lydia Ann BENTLEY) is living with her father and his second wife, Mary WESTERMAN and he’s a wool carter.

Joseph’s death certificate says he was ‘an overlooker at a woolen mill’ as he was in the 1861 and 1871 census. So that rules out the shoemaker, Joseph and makes it likely that the Scholemoor burial is the shoemaker. I think I have the right one and that Jonathan and Mary are his parents.

Just working through the permutations of your musings has been very helpful and I’m very grateful you took the time to look at all that information.

Lin,

Ann’s death certificate shows Joseph as a slubber and Joseph ELLIS (Morley Common) present at time of death. He may be her brother born to the same parents in 1803. Jonathan was a ‘clothier’ and Ann’s father was also. No mention of shoemakers.

Just because Joseph says that his father was Jonathan doesn’t mean to say that it was.?
At that time, you didn’t need to provide any proof
He would simply have been asked – who was your father – he might have just answered “Jonathan” and the clerk assumed Bentley
Also, there is a possibility that if he was illegitimate and his mother married just after he was born to a Jonathan Bentley then he was possibly brought up thinking that his father the Jonathan.
Whilst he died have been buried in the Wesleyan cemetery, he is not likely to have been a Wesleyan in 1853 when he married, or he would not have married by Banns
There never was a legal requirement for non-conformist registers to be deposited so many may still be with the church – but which church at the time.
Also, they could have been kept by the person performing which ever service and taking with him to the next church!

The problem then might be trying to find the paper trail to match the DNA

I'm trying to determine who the parents of Joseph BENTLEY (1814-1874) are. He was buried at Morley Wesleyan 13 Mar 1874.
?
He married Ann ELLIS 1 Feb 1835 in Batley and had two children. She died in 1841. He married Mary WESTERMAN (1820-1851) in 1843, had two children and Esther BROWN (1825-1905) in 1853 and had six more children. In the 1851 census he is married to Mary with their daughter and son and his two children from his marriage with Ann. Lidian (Lydia Ann BENTLEY) is my ancestor.
?
I've always thought that Joseph's parents were Jonathan BENTLEY (1787-1859) who married Mary RHODES 14 Feb 1806 in Batley. Certainly his marriages to both Mary WESTERMAN and Esther BROWN indicate Jonathan being his father.?
?
What makes me wonder if this is wrong is not having dna matches with others further back when there should be a match. I must have made an error somewhere.
?
There are many other families with parents Joseph BENTLEY and Martha FIELD but I'm the only one with Jonathan and Mary. I would appreciate some other eyes looking at this and telling me what they think.

MOVERLEY

 

I've been able to prove my MOVERLEY line back to a marriage in the parish of Bramham in 1676. John MOVERLEY appears to have come in from elsewhere as there are no earlier references to the surname in the parish registers and he is not named in either the 1672 or 1674 Hearth Tax lists. The only other MOVERLEYs in evidence at this time were resident in the parish of Kellington about 15 miles to the south but I've yet to find anything that might link him to them. He remains an enigma.

The 1861 census was possibly the worst kept of all the census returns and certainly in the 1950s if you went to the Public Records Office to look at the census you would have been given the original book to look at.

?

So, there are many books with missing pages at the beginning and end due to handling and many missing in the middle where they were pulled out.

?

I have many families where I can’t find them in 1861

?

Interestingly I checked your Hiram in the GROs own indexes an it has his mothers maiden name as Simpson not Atkinson – I assume he is the one born in Dewsbury RD

James SYKES (b circa 1833) married Hannah ATKINSON (b 1837), in Castleford in 1857. I cannot find them on1861 census.

?

I would imagine that were some between 1857 and 1862. 1911 census says she had 11 children - (I've found seven of them). 6 living.

?

They had two children I am sure of in Hopton - George Thomas in 1862 (not on GRO but have his baptism) and Hiram b 1864. Both were baptised on the same day in 1864.? James is now William James.

?

Between 1869 and 1872 he appears to be known as Joseph STEAD. Joseph is on 1871 census, 36, coal miner, place of birth not known, Hannah, 28, born Monk Bretton*, George T STEAD, 9, Hiram STEAD and Ernest STEAD.

?

Mary Ellen STEAD daughter of Joseph and Hannah (ATKINSON) was born Court 13 Shambles St in 1872. When she married in 1895 her surname is SYKES, father James SYKES (deceased). Witnesses were Hiram and Annie SYKES

?

James SYKES died 6 June 1875 at Court 13 Shambles St, Barnsley. Hannah was the informant.

*Hannah was baptised in Wragby, Yorkshire in 1837, daughter of George and Anne . On 1871-1911 censuses she gives her birth place as Monk Bretton. Yorkshire].

Hannah SYKES married George ROLLINGS in 1877.

In 1917 Hannah was murdered by her daughter Annie STEAD.
