    1. [CASTLE] Isaac CASTLE and Harriet LEWIS - Hendred to NSW
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: cispt2 Surnames: castle, lewis, roberts, tabor, rivers, cassell, cassells, border, castles Classification: biography Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.castle/1006/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I'm working on the Castle and Lewis family members that moved from East and West Hendred to Australia in the 1800's., and this entry in my blog http://thehistoryofmatt.blogspot.com/ relates mainly to what I know of the CASTLE boys. I'll write on the Lewis family next. Would love to hear from any descendents. cheers matt Isaac CASTLE and Harriet LEWIS This entry relates to the CASTLE brothers Isaac and James, sons of William CASTLE (b. 11 Dec 1798) and Amy ROBERTS from West Hendred, Berkshire, England. They married on 27 Jun 1828 in East Hendred, Berkshire. In the 1841 and 1851 censuses William, gave his occupation as Agricultural Laborer. James was born in 1826, and his brother Isaac in 1831, two of five children. William CASTLE had died by December 1856 as James and Isaac state in their immigration records that their father is deceased, and their mother Amy ROBERTS had married for a second time in 1853 to James RIVERS. Note: a number of on-line GED's I've found indicate that their father William CASTLE also died in Australia in the same year as James LEWIS. I can find no record of William CASTLE in Australia thus far, and the evidence above suggests that this is erroneous. I have a few certificates scanned by others that are poor quality, and I've pieced a lot together from what others have and I've cobbled it all into my GED file. James married Leah LEWIS on 5 August 1848 in West Hendred Berkshire, and in the 1851 census they lived in East Hendred with their 2-year old son William in the home village of the Lewis girls. In 1855 Isaac marred Leah's younger sister Harriet LEWIS at St Giles Church in nearby Reading prior to both couples departing for Australia in Dec 1856 on the Beejapore from Southampton. They landed in Sydney in March 1857, their arrival entries stating that the CASTLE boys were from West Hendred, their wives the Lewis girls from East Hendred, and none of them could read or write. Both couples lost a child on the voyage; Isaac and Harriet lost 1-year-old Mary Ann, and James and Leah lost an infant also named Mary Ann. James and Leah had two children born in England, another born at sea and dying, and the remaining children born from 1858-1870, in and around the Sydney, Parramatta and the St George area where James and Leah seem to have lived. Some are transcribed in the NSW BDM as CASSELL rather than CASTLE, and CASTLES is also present (given the English pronunciation of Castle this makes sense). Concurrently, Isaac and Harriet seem to have made their way to Bathurst, NSW relatively quickly, as they have a child in Enmore NSW on 25 May 1857 two months after arriving (a second Alice Ann 1857-1920, namesake of the first lost on the voyage), thence all others from 1859-1872 were born/registered in Bathurst, Black Rock, or Cowra, though these are only transcript entries at the BDM site, not copies of the certificates themselves, which will ultimately yield much more information. Summary of known children born to Isaac CASTLE and Harriet Lewis, though much information is based on NSW BDM transcripts and needs to be confirmed. 1. Alice Ann, christened 24 Feb 1856, East Hendred, Berkshire, England. Died in 1857 on voyage to Australia. 2. Alice Ann, born 25th May 1857, Enmore, NSW. Probably married John Inglis (recorded as Alice CASSELLS), Coonamble, 1885 and died 1920, Carcoar, NSW. 3. Charles William, farmer. Born 1859, Bathurst NSW. Married Emily Ann Potter at Binnie Creek, NSW on 07 Dec 1887, and died while living in Paddington NSW in 1927. 4. Leah Ann, born 1860 in Bathurst NSW, and married James ARMSTRONG, 1883, in West Macquarie NSW. Died in Murrumburrah, NSW in 1911 (the same year as her father). 5. Jacob, born in 1862 and died in 1862 at Dennis Island NSW, registered in the Bathurst Lonely Graves Register. Dennis Island was apparently an enclave of Methodist families. 6. Amy CASTLE (my great great grandmother). Born 1 Jul 1864 at Black Rock, Bathurst, NSW. Married Samuel Litson Border on 1 Jan 1884 at Wallaroo, Cowra, NSW and had 13 children, at least eight of whom survived adolescence, as they were alive when she passed away on 11 Mar 1940 at Sydney Hospital, late of 17 Oatley Rd, Paddington. 7. Jacob CASTLE (transcribed as Male CASTLE), born 1866 in Bathurst NSW. Married Flora MCKENZIE 1891, Cowra NSW. Died, Cowra NSW in 1940. 8. Abraham CASTLE, born 1872 and died Apsley, NSW in the same year. and twin: 9. Isaac CASTLE, born 1872 and died Apsley, NSW in the same year. It is not clear where the error lies at this early stage, however Isaac CASTLE's death certificate in 1911 correctly gave four living family members (Alice A, Charles, Amy and Isaac) but only 1 female deceased. Harriet Lewis' death is thus far a mystery. A perennial error reported is that Harriet died in 1882. This is probably based on the following BDM entry: 1882 CASTLE, HARRIET f: THOMAS m: MARY PARRAMATTA But this is not Harriet, whose parents were John and Dinah - that her husband, sister and brother-in-law were all alive, and that her sisters death in 1908 correctly lists her parents names further discounts this. Searches of the NSW BDM with all possible spellings of Harriett, and CASTLE (CASSELL, CASSELLS, CASTLES, etc. and LEWIS) or her parents names has yielded nothing. Harriett's brother Stephen LEWIS (whose mysterious story is for another entry) spent approximately 20 years in NSW prior to arriving in Queensland about 1877, but no death records exist for a Harriett CASTLE/LEWIS and permutations in Queensland. The search continues. Isaac appears not to have re-married at any point. Isaac CASTLE died on 9 Aug 1911 in Cowra NSW aged 87, his son stating he lived in Wallaroo, 'near Cowra'. The headstone transcript from Bathurst FHG states that he married Harriet Lewis. The name Wallaroo comes up in a number of certificates, and Cowra FHG informed me it was approximately 5 miles out along the Canowindra Road on the left, once a tiny village, a church and a school. The school was removed about 50 years ago to Wiltendale Road, further off Canowindra Road to the right, well back off the road. Isaac's brother James CASTLE is listed in the 1872 Greville directory in Blacktown (west of Sydney) as a laborer. At some point after having their children (their last child John was born in 1870), James and Leah appear to have moved to Bathurst, perhaps to be with Isaac and Hrriet? James died in 1896 and Leah in 1908, both in Bathurst NSW. Harriet and Leah LEWIS had other members of their family move to Australia following their departure, though those details, and whether they even knew this, will be the subject of a subsequent entry. There's much more to discover about the CASTLE's. Once completed I'll post their time-line. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

    1. [CASTLE] Castle in GA, SC and TN
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: searchingforcastles Surnames: Castle, Cassel, McDaniel Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.castle/1003/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hello all, I am new to this message board thing, so please be patient with me. I am looking for any information on Columbus C. Castle born Nov. 3, 1858 (according to death certificate) in Georgia. Death certificate lists father at either Tom or Lom Castle. I found Columbus (age 1) on 1860 census living with E. Castle, female who is 43, in Chattooga Valley, Chattooga, Co., GA. She could be his mother or his grandmother as there is also listed a Nancy Castle who is 27. Both E. and Nancy show place of birth as South Carolina. Columbus shows place of birth as Georgia. This census also shows Robertson, age 15 male, and Charles, age 9 male, both born in South Carolina. I found Columbus in 1870 census indexed as McDaniel in Jasper, Marion Co., TN. I believe this is an indexing error because Elizabeth Cassel (age 59) is listed at top of household and then is listed Martha McDaniel, female age 27 born in S.C.. This census also lists William, age 11 male b. S.C., Daniel, age 2 male b. TN, and Charles, age 18 male b. S.C.. I believe William and Daniel are Martha's boys and Charles and Columbus are Elizabeth's. All four boys are listed under Martha with no last names. I find Columbus Castle again in 1900 living with his wife, Rebecca, and their children in Marion Co., TN. Rebecca is listed as Columbus' second marriage. I would like any information that anyone has on his first marriage or his parents. Thank you, Stephanie Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

SAMUEL CASTLE was running a mill on the road to New Fairfield by 1745 but died in 1761. We are not positive of his ancestry but a member of the Castle family of Woodbury, CT came to the Amenia area and there may be a connection that we have not found. There are no land records in Beekman or Pawling for the Castle family. [Primary source is History of Ancient Woodbury, Ct., 528]. A brief sketch of the Castle family of Amenia follows. DANIEL3 CASTLE, (Isaac2, Henry1) was born 8 Oct. 1717 at Woodbury, CT and died 7 June 1777 in Amenia. He was bd. in the Burial Ground at Steel Works, on the road between S. Amenia and Wassaic. [NEBG 126]. He m. Elizabeth _____ who died in Amenia 28 April 1804 in her 84th year and was bd. in the same place. In Jan. 1761 Daniel Castle was on a 108 acre farm in lots 47 & 48 in the Oblong, (Nine Partners). He was taxed in Crum Elbow as "Castle Esq." from June 1759 through Feb. 1762 and then in Amenia to 1773 when the listing became Daniel, which in turn became "estate" in 1778. He was a witness on a deed of 25 March 1760 between Joseph Clapp of the Oblong and Daniel Reed of Norwalk. [D 3:351]. On 13 Jan. 1773 Robert G. Livingston of NYC sold 979 acres of lot 30 in Amenia to Daniel Castle Esq., Gideon Castle, James Reed, Extra Reed and Gershom Reed, all of Amenia. The consideration was £725. Two of these Reeds were sons-in-law to Daniel Castle. [D 6:395]. Daniel and Samuel Castle were witnesses together on 5 June 1759 for a deed involving lots in the Oblong. [D 4:54]. His will was made 14 May 1777 and proved 3 Oct. 1788. [DCW A:104, AA:70].
