G/Day Gay Thankyou for your note I shall be going to my local LDS to take a look at what you have sent me. For the past year I have been transcribing parts of the 1891 census for Middlesex so if there is anything there I can help with please let me know regards Keith ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gay O'Neill" <gayoneill@bigpond.com> To: <BEDFORD-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, April 24, 2006 9:12 PM Subject: [BDF] Darnell's Wrestlingworth

My 1890s Bible's "Index of Proper Names - with their Accentuation and Meanings" gives Asenath as: AS'-E-NATH = she who is of Neith or Pallas Which doesn't seem to help very much as she is NOT included in the same work's "Alphabetical Index of the Holy Scriptures" which does include Individuals' names.... Maybe she was Welsh??? But definitely the name has a Non-Conformist ring to it, as they seemed to prefer the Old Testament to the New...

There are a few other children to Joseph and Charlotte born in Wrestlingworth. If you enter this batch number and the name Darnell P003271 on the ww.familysearch.org site you will find them.

Good morning Listers, I am trying to find some roots for my Descendants and thought would ask for your help. My Descendant...WILLIAM JOHN BOYCE.........immigrated to Australia and I am trying to find out if in fact this is his family. From the 1851 census I found father William Boyce c1807....Newport, Pagnell, Buckinghamshire. mother: Elizabeth c1812.........Dunstable They had the following children: Ann c1838......Dunstable Betsy....c1842.....Dunstable Emma..c1848......Dunstable James. c1845......Dunstable Sarah... c1850......Dunstable And my Descendant who came to South Australia. WILLIAM BOYCE born c1836....also at Dunstable. I am hoping that someone on your list is related to this Boyce family and they could perhaps tell me if William immigrated to South Australia...he was married in Adelaide 1862. I have been searching for 3 years now and unfortunately the wedding certificate from Adelaide does not mention where he was born.....does not even mention his date of birth only that he was full age...which I presume was over 21 years. And it is a shame that on the certificate it does not mention his mother's name which might have helped me a bit more. And of course all the relations who could have told me are all dead. It is a shame that I was not interested in family research 20 years ago...but then I was busy trying to raise 5 children. I thought it was worth a try to ask on your list and see what happens. Have a lovely day, and many thanks, Sieglinde, Queensland, Australia.

Hi everyone, Is anyone connected to the HUCKLE family in Millbrook in the 1600s? I am trying to connect this family up with later HUCKLEs in Bedfordshire. All the best, Donna

Hi everyone, Would anyone be able to check the Millbrook PRs for me? I need to check the details of my HUCKLE line. I have: Richard HUCKLE m.9 oct 1696 Elizabeth SEIR in Millbrook. Does the marriage mention if she is from somewhere else? Richard and Elizabeth HUCKLE had 8 children baptised in Millbrook between 1667 and 1682 (I have the dates) but there is no marriage. Is there any mention of any other parish? Robert HUCKLE m.23 jan 1608 Edith COX in Millbrook. Is there any mention of him being from another parish? Thanks so much for your time, Donna

William DARNELL married in 1871 in London he was my G Grandfather Is it possible to get a copy of his baptism record. Are there any Darnells still in the area? Any help would be appreciated regards Keith

Hi Donna I dont know if this might be your Robert Huckle, but I have one born 1582 and baptised 5 Jan 1582 at Cardington, but no marriage for him yet, son of George Huckle c1550 Cardington and Jane Austin c1550 Titchfield, Hampshire married 3 Jun 1575 Cardington.

Hi everyone, Would anyone be able to check the Ampthill parish registers for me? I need to check a marriage between John LANE and Sarah RENOLDS on 18 nov 1697. I am looking for any details of whether either party was from a different parish (esp. John). I believe Sarah was bpt.24 jan 1673 in Ampthill - parents Nathaniel and Elizabeth. I am trying to figure out where John came from. John and Sarah had 3 children baptised in Ampthill (Ann 1702, Elizabeth 1705 & Jane 1707 and I have these dates) but I believe they also had 3 children baptised in Husborne Crawley - John 1697, Sarah 1701 and William 1706. If anyone can help me sort out this family I would really appreciate it. All the best, Donna
