Yes, I need to get someone to look at the copy held at The Rooms in NL unless Jean learns anything new from the museum historians. Vicki ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The two New Louen Poole Eng references I found on Google relate to the same marriage in Hermitage Bay, Newfoundland. I suspect that they are based on the same transcription so to settle this it will probably be necessary to look at the original document. There was a separate reference to 'New Louen, Conn' on the ellisisland.org website, but looking at the original Ship's Manifest proved that this was an error and it should have been New London, Conn. There is a 'New London Tavern' in Lagland Street, Poole but although this appears in the 1889 issue of Kelly's Directory, I cannot see any adjacent area which might be referred to 'New London' although it may have been a customary rather than official designation in a similar sense to 'The (Big) Smoke' for London. Intriguingly on the same marriage page (http://ngb.chebucto.org/Parish/herm-marr-01.shtml) there is an entry for a Richard Penny in 1877. He was born 'Newton, England'. Given the link between Dorset and Newfoundland this could be a contraction of Sturminster Newton, but as this is some distance from Poole I do not think that this is not connected with 'New Louen'. I look forward to hearing what suggestions come from your visit to Poole Museum. Russell

Thank you! I look forward to reading any info they can provide. The Henry Wellman that you find when "googling" New Louen is my ancestor. Unfortunately, I won't be able to check the records myself to see if, as I suspect, there was an error in the transcription, for quite some time. (I think the records are at The Rooms in St. John's, NL, and I'm in the US).

Thanks Russel, the reason for not thinking it is Newtown Poole [all one word], is that area in the 1800's would have been heathland, I lived near there in Alderney, 1934 our bungalow was new, we were surrounded on three sides by heathland & Romany Gipsys, Newtown is made up of 1920's Council Houses, new council housing estates and factories ect . Sturminster Newton a lovrly market town is some 25 miles away, there are many villages/towns in Dorset & Devon which end with newton, I am intrigued, my Squibb family can be traced back to the late 1600's , all born within a 8 mile radious of Wimborne, that includes Poole, Regards Jean The two New Louen Poole Eng references I found on Google relate to the same marriage in Hermitage Bay, Newfoundland.

The possibility that he was born in Yorks seems to come from his record in the IGI, this was posted by Margaret Henderson, 315, 354 Woodvale Road, East Edmonton, Alberta, T6L 5E9, you may have to resort to snail mail and contact her to see where she got her record from! I've looked through all my Dorset, London and Yorks records but can't find anything all all for him. Your only other option I can find is a website http://vimagination.zapto.org/FH/list.php which is the family tree of Jaki Woolnough, he is mentioned there, although she has no record of his birthplace or parents either from what I can see, but it might be worth contacting her and pooling your resources.

Both were described as "of this parish". The baptism of their first(?) child Robert Robins on 14th September 1828 was at St. Mary Magdalene, Woolwich, London says he was born 23 August 1828. A number of Public Family Trees shown on Ancestry.co.uk show Jethro to be born in Yorkshire, but do not give any evidence, also that his father was Peter Robins also born in Yorkshire in 1766, but sadly no further evidence.

Hi there, I am back with yet ANOTHER request  for you to answer - sorry about that.   This time I need to know who the FATHER is in this family  please.   John MARGRIE married Anne SEAWARD.   John was born 1821 in Bridport he then moved out to Jersey in the 1830's, I have been to Jersey archives to trace his family.   What I would like to know is ---- who was John MARGRIE's father please as the the Jersey marriage certificate doesn't have the father on it.  They got married 1840 in Jersey but now I need to know who his father is please.   Does anyone have the registers for this period please?   Thank you very much.   Diane

Jethro did leave dorest to join the Royal marines but returned around 1829/30 and was in Beaminister with his wife Ellen and his second son William was baptised there.

Any help would be appreciated. Also Ann Budden/Akerman died in 1844 but i cannot find any evidence of her death or burial at stoke abbott. kind regards ellen

Thanks very much Vanessa for your reply. I did know of this William Elliott but have not been able to confirm if he is the right one. I know that Hannah & William were married by banns on 14th of March 1814. (Page 2 Entry 5 of Sixpenny Handley Marriages). Both signed by X & witnesses were Stephen Oxford & Joseph Isaac. If this is the right William then they were only married nine months & he never lived to see his son Charles born, if in fact it was his son & not someone else's. Is there any way of knowing if this was a first marriage for William? I wonder if Hannah may have worked for William as a housekeeper & married her. Guess there are all kinds of possibilities.
