I am looking for information on Julia India Cherry, b. circa 1774 in Norfolk Co., Va. She married Robert Sikes(Sykes) on July 19, 1797 in Norfolk Co., Va. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Faye fayefayerussell@aol.com

To Ann Cherry, Yes, I'll certainly keep a look out for your Joseph Cherry b 1817 in England. Isobel

Hi Danny, Thankyou very much for that information on Chilworth. I see on your list of Cherrys from Thame, a George baptised on Dec 11 1844, and born to Francis and Anne Cherry. On the 1881 census records for my family of Cherrys at Southwark, there is an additional George, aged 37, born at Chilworth. The dates fit-so there's a possibility there. I'll let you know if I make any further progress. Isobel

Is anyone researching Cherry's in Ireland. Ours is Bridget Cherry born Ballinasloe, Galway. Married Michael O'Connor in Co. Clare. Lived in Clare until her death sometime before 1857 Paul Mckinlay

Hi Sue, Yes!! Don't have much. Areas mentioned are: Bors Ness, Parish Corin, Scotland; Shotts, Wester Bonhar, Lanark, Scotland. Individuals include: Alexander CHERRY, b. abt 1744, d. abt 1818 Bathgate (near Edinburg), Scotland. Also, Cumming Cherry, b. abt 1775, s/o Alexander, d. 11 July 1845, Minersville, Pittsburgh,PA.Cumming Cherry was married to Margaret GILLIN about 1799. They had a son, also named Cumming, b. 15 Feb. 1815, Strathaven, Parish Avondale. Family legend: That Alexander Cherry was somehow related to Bonnie Prince Charles, of the Royal STUART line. That CHERRY was an assumed name in order to avoid arrest and being beheaded after the failed uprising. I am most anxious to hear if any of these names connect with your line.

Hi Danny, The 1881 Census states that my Henry Cherry was born in Chilworth, Oxford. I can't see a Chilworth in Oxford on a modern map-only in Hants and Surrey. I am wondering if this is a mistake, or do you happen to know of this place name in Oxfordshire? Isobel

Is anyone researching Cherrys in Scotland? What area of Scotland? Sue West

Hi Danny, Many thanks for all the details of Cherrys from the Thame parish registers. I'll have a good look at them to see if I can find a possible link. Isobel

Looking for information about Henry Cherry Born 1710, and died 1756 in Newton, Bucks Co., PA. He married (1) RUTH BURRAS 23 Oct 1731 in NJ. He married (2) MARTHA WADE Abt. 1734. Mary Lou Clegg

Thanks Dan, I'd be pleased to have any information. I 've found in the 1881 census, (Southwark) that in the family I am researching, head of the family, Henry Cherry, was born in Chilworth, Oxfordshire, in 1839. Isobel

Hello Danny My mother is a CHERRY and I have loads of info. on them. I can go back to Thomas CHERRY, a Blacksmith in Marston St Lawrence, Northamptonshire, who died in 1756. The next generation included Charles CHERRY (1729 - 1810), Churchwarden at Marston St Lawrence. In the 1800s I have them in Islington, then in New Romney, Kent (a Coastguard), then in Stoke Newington, North London and finally at the beginning of 20th century in Croydon. Edwin L. CHERRY, a fellow researcher, found a book in the British Library, entitled "The Annals of an Indian Family" by Charles Minchin printed for private circulation by W.D. Dobson (1898). The opening paragraph is as follows: "The Cherry family is said to be descended from the DeCheries of Picardy and Normandy....It appears that Thomas and John (Jean) Cherie held lands and tenements in the village of Plumpton, Northamptonshire.....The presumption is that they settled in Northamptonshire in the beginning of the 15th century." Edwin wonders whether there may be a connection with the village of Cherrioux on the Normandy coast (on old maps spelt Cheris). This is highly speculative. In order to test the belief that the Cherry family or a large branch of the Cherry family originated with Thomas Cherie, he analysed the CHERRY births in England (there were none in Wales) from 1837 to 1857 and found that out of a total of1250 entries, 48% were within 50 miles of Plumpton and 22% between 50 and 75 miles of Plumpton. He then discovered in Black's "Surnames of Scotland" that an Adam CHERRY held land in Ayr in 1348 and he states that it seems probable that he also came from Normandy, though he has no evidence for this. Apologies for going back into the mists of time, for which there is very scant and unreliable documentation. I'd be very interested to be in contact with anyone, who has an interest in the same areas as me.

To Danny Bull, You asked whether anyone was interested in researching Cherrys from England. My husband's mother's surname was Cherry, and I began to trace her ancestor's, a few month's ago, but at that time didn't make much headway. I have very little information at the moment, except a ? Cherry who was born in Southwark Bridge Road, London, in 1875 . In his family there was an Elizabeth Cherry, who remained unmarried, and a William Cherry, who evidently fell on hard times after World War 1 and went to New Zealand. I believe that earlier generations came from Thame, Oxfordshire, England. After next month I hope to have more time to look more seriously into the Cherry ancestors. Where about in England did the Cherry ancestors you are researching come from? Isobel

I'm afraid I can't help much on Bedfordshire or Kent roots as my researches haven't extended that far. My Cherrys came from Bedfordshire's neighbouring county of Bucks, my earliest known ancestor being Thomas Cherry, who married Elizabeth Foster at Preston Bissett in 1785. I suspect he was born over in Ambrosden in neighbouring Oxfordshire in the 1750s, but haven't been able to find sufficent proof yet. However, if you come across any stray Thomas Cherrys born at about that time in Beds then I'd be very interested.

My Cherry ancestors came from North Buckinghamshire, mainly the villages of Chetwode and Preston Bissett, which are not too far from Thame (15 miles or so). In my research I have come across Cherrys from Thame and will send details later (I'm at work now and don't have them to hand).

Hi Danny Yes Yes I am, I thought I was the only one in the world that was researching in England. My lot came from Swaledale in North Yorkshire and Burnley in Lancashire, if any of that seems to fit give me a call, I have a data base of about 2000 Cherry events mostly in Lancashire and Yorkshire, so maybe we can help each other.
