    1. Re: [HWK] Were Alfred Amos CHAPPELL and Daniel TOGHILL the same person?
    2. Hi Carole, Not sure if this is of any help.... but, I have three Mary Ann CHAPPELL in my tree so I throw them into the equation in case they help. They are: Mary Ann b. 1847 in Littleton Drew the daur of David CHAPPELL and Grace PRITCHARD. I have no idea what happened to her after 1851. Mary Ann b. 1847 in Lyneham, my g g grandma and the daur of Job CHAPPELL and Amy GRIFFIN - not a likely starter Mary Ann b. 1842 the daur of Eli CHAPPELL and Anne Lawrence HISCOX. She m. Wm Albert Sainsbury in 1866 - again not a likely starter I think we can rule out the last two but could the daur. of David CHAPPELL and Grace PRITCHARD be the one you are looking for? If so, I have quite a bit more information. Cheers Sue

    3. Hi Carol No I don't know of a Henry Hulbert - but I just have to know, now you've mentioned the goat :-)) For everyone else: As you know, (and if you don't, you will soon) I have a mystery which links Hawkesbury to Newport Monmouthshire and Carole has been very helpful over the years in trying to solve it. I have made more progress - not necessarily in the right direction, so I think I will restate the story. You will have to bear with me as you will see my family gives new meaning to the expression "extended family"!!! My grandad was born in 1865 in Hawkesbury and married in Cheltenham in 1921 - and was 65 when my Dad was born. We therefore started doing our Family History to fill in the gaps and understand the various passing relatives that my Dad met, but never had a clear vision of where they fitted in to the family. Grandad left my Dad various notebooks (his accounts from Kingscote are on CD at Archive CD Books) and in one of these these are addresses including a Mr E Hulbert at St Woollos Monmouthshire. (This is a suburb of Newport now) For a long time I believed this was my grandad's cousin Edwin John HULBERT born 1849 (yes- his mother Grace was 15 years older that grandad's father James). I now think he (Mr E ) was another member of my family, but I have never found out who. This is because I'm now fairly convinced that Edwin went first to Tewkesbury (where he married) and then to a farm at Awre near Blakeney in the Forest of Dean - it took a long time to track him down because of the quaint transcripts of Edwin's accented rendition of Hawkesbury as well as his propensity to be called or to call himself John and Edward. This fits with a report that my grandad's only comment when my cousin John was named was "I had once an uncle called John" (this is still the only Hulbert named John that I have found). This is all very enigmatic and to be honest still drives me crazy from time to time. If however anyone on the list comes across anything remotely related or helpful, I'd appreciate the info... one day it might all fit together!!!!

    1. Were Alfred Amos CHAPPELL and Daniel TOGHILL the same person?
    2. ANTHONY SHARP
    3. Hi All, I've been reviewing some of my TOGHILL/CHAPPELL/WATTS connections and found yet another little puzzle! Two entries from the PRs - note the dates and locations and spelling of CHAPPLE/CHAPPELL. Parish Register - Hawkesbury, No 406 Feb 28 1875, Hugh Watts TOGHILL 32 ?Haulier/Hawker, of Hillesly, son of Daniel WATTS Farmer & Mary Ann CHAPPLE age 21 spin dau of George CHAPPLE Labourer Witnesses Charles TOGHILL & Mary Ann CHAPPELL. Parish Register - Oldbury on the Hill, No 437 Mar 11 1875, Alfred Amos son of Mary Ann CHAPPELL, Starveall, Hawkesbury. I have been showing Alfred Amos CHAPPELL (later known as TOGHILL) as the son of Hugh Watts TOGHILL & Mary Ann CHAPPLE but, given the above entries, wondered whether Alfred Amos CHAPPELL could be the son of the witness to the marriage instead. However, I can't identify this Mary Ann CHAPPELL (the witness) at present. I've always had a problem with Hugh & Mary Ann's children because, according to the censuses, there seems to be a son Daniel born about the sme time (1875), and, given that Hugh's father was Daniel WATTS, seems most likely to their child. When I put this to Kay he came back with the following analysis, and I would be grateful for any views please. Cheers Carole "I am going to shock you by saying that I believe Alfred Amos CHAPPELL and Daniel TOGHILL are one and the same person. Bob LAWRENCE in his database has them both as children of Hugh Watts TOGHILL and Mary Ann CHAPPELL. If we look at the various Census details: 1881 Alfred TOGHILL aged 6 born Hawkesbury is recorded as Grandson of George CHAPPELL (Farm Labourer) and his wife Jane at Beech Grove, Starveall, Hawkesbury. Also present : Mary A TOGHILL daughter, Widow, Rosa (Rose) A TOGHILL Granddaughter, and sons George CHAPPELL aged 18 born Weston and Frederick CHAPPELL aged 9 born Hawkesbury. 1891 Daniel TOGHILL aged 16 born Hawkesbury Grandson with grandparents George and Jane CHAPPELL of Beech Grove Cottages Hawkesbury 1901 (Wales) Daniel TOGHILL (unfortunately indexed as TOYHILL) aged 26 Single born Hawkesbury at residence of his uncle, Frederick Chappell, in Abertilley Monmouthshire. (Also present was Walter TOGHILL born 1885 Sodbury). If you look at the 1881 and 1891 Census we have firstly Alfred (1881) and then Daniel (1891) with grandparents George and Jane CHAPPELL at the same address in both Census. Alfred is 6 in 1881, Daniel 16 in 1891, and then in 1901 he is 26 with Frederick who was a son of George and Jane. It is far too much of a coincidence to have two TOGHILL grandchildren born in the same year, ( there is no variation as to year of birth over the 20 years between the 1881 Cenus and the 1901 Census) particularly when there is no indication of any other daughter of George and Jane marrying a TOGHILL. I am confident enough to delete Daniel TOGHILL from my records. There is no birth in the GRO Indexes on 1837online for a Daniel TOGHILL in the years 1874-1876 (a fact also recorded by Bob Lawrence in his database). All we know of Alfred Amos CHAPPELL (who subsequently is known as TOGHILL) is that he was born in the March Q 1875 Chipping Sodbury 6a 217 and that he was baptised as a CHAPPELL on11/3/1875. What we do not know is when he was actually born. I suspect that it would have been before 28/2/1875 when his mother married Hugh Watts TOGHILL. (Interestingly 28/2/1875 was a Sunday and 11/3 a Thursday.) I would also suspect that the Parish Priest may have objected to baptising the child as TOGHILL knowing that the birth of the child had been registered as CHAPPELL. I will obtain the birth certificate. This of course leaves still the question, who was Mary Ann CHAPPELL the witness to the marriage? It would not surprise me that this is an error and that Mary Ann’s mother, Jane, was the witness." PS I have to add that Mary ANN CHAPPELL signed her name in the PRs and it is definitely Ann, not Jane. Carole -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

There is one thing though that you should bear in mind - using a local accent Chucksberry is a fairly good literal transcription of how people like me - born in North Glos say "Tewkesbury" !!!!!!!!!

    2. Hello all I am new to the list. After searching for over a year for my g grandfathers family (g grandparents werent married!) I believe I have now found them, by pure fluke! He was born in Staffs and I have discovered his parents were born in Glo. I found the following for 1881: _William THOMPSON_ (http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/census/individual_record.asp?INDI_CODE=1881BR_5428187_0&frompage=5) Head M Male 57 Hukesbury, Gloucester, England Furnace Keeper Ironworks _Sophia THOMPSON_ (http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/census/individual_record.asp?INDI_CODE =1881BR_5428187_1&frompage=5) Wife M Female 40 Hukesbury, Gloucester, England I am assuming this should be Hawkesbury tho I did at first think it might be Tewkesbury. In 1891 it looks like Chucksberry. Someone on Staffs list kindly found them in Staffs in 1871 and places look like Grafan for William and Lindfiarl for Sophia??? Ages in 1871 are 47 and 44 which I believe are correct as they tally with 1891. Ring any bells with anyone? I would really appreciate any help to move on with this family. Any good Glo sites??? Regards Joan

    2. Hello everyone, Does anyone know anything about a Mary Toghill married to a George Dawe, he was born about 1858 in the St. Phillips area of Bristol, I have been told Mary died in childbirth leaving at least 3 daughters who were sent to the workhouse,that we know of today as St. Martins Hospital, Odd Down, Bath, George married another Mary ? from Whitley Melksham, my informant tells me that Mary Toghill was sister to my G/father William Henry born Cold Ashton 1871, would I be right thinking she was Mary Ann daughter of George and Letitica? Regards, Louise.
