George & Mildred... Now that reminds me of an old TV sitcom.

There's no comment in the register. Maybe I've seen too many films but I just imagine the reaction when she was asked the name of the baby and announced that.

Not as unusual as some but I have Gabriel Snart who married Elizabeth Warrington in Edenham, Lincs 18 May 1756; he died Dec 1759 and had a daughter, Ann, b. Edenham Mar 1758. She married Thomas Hubbard Nov 1776 in Edenham & died Jul 1806 in Crowland. Thomas then married Susanna Catchbill. Anyone out there connected to my Snart/Catchbill lot? Jennifer

I have a Theophylus CUMBERWORTH wed Ann Taylor c1634 in Whaplode and then An Day Nov 1656 in Spalding. He named one of his sons the same but the name went no further down the line. Unfortunately I haven't managed to track further back to see where his name came from. However there is a clue in the 1641/2 Protestation Returns with a Theophe Cumberworth listed which could be his father. Maybe he was the filius, Latin for son, of Theophe and hence Theofilius.

My 4 x great grandmother was a Tomisin TONG born Lincoln 1714, married Robert HODSON Lincoln 1740, died Louth 1808 apart from Tomisin most of my Lincolnshire folk had quite normal names, I have got a few ladies with the first name Pilgrim in my tree (Pilgrim BROWN, Pilgrim HARDSTAFF & Pilgrim WILKINSON) but they are over the border in Nottinghamshire.

I have a Tamar SKELTON who was born in Rippingale, Lincs. She married Thomas OLDHAM. They were married for 22 years and apparently had no children. Then Thomas (by now living in Thorney, Cambs) married again aged 50 and went on to have 12 children!!!! Most of them died young, but not as infants. I also have a SOPHONISBE Mallet ROYAL (female) She wasn't born in Lincolnshire but had connections to the county. I think Mallett could have been a name within her mother's family.

I can't find any unusual names among my womenfolk. As for men, the Keal family liked to use Oldham, and the Williams had a few Lambricks. Maybe Lambrick was shortened to Lam sometimes, don't know about Oldham. I suppose they were surnames to begin with, but I haven't got that far back. Ivy

Hi Janice, I just checked this and I did indeed transcribe Barnett (or Burnett) as sometimes it is impossible to tell whether the original is an "a" or an "o". A search on the CD for "Burnett" does bring up this recognizance. As Pam said, the reference in square brackets is all Lincolnshire Archives needs to locate the document, but you should also give details of names and date, just in case. I have known references to be altered after we have worked on the documents! Unfortunately there are no poor law documents for the parishes of Langton or Walmsgate so it is very unlikely you will find other documents relative to this case anywhere else.

----- Original Message ----- From: "Diana Robinson" <drobins6@rochester.rr.com> >I come from a family with a penchant for emigrating, -snip-- It is odd, sometimes, to find a family that spent 150 years in one village, then their descendants fanned out to almost every corner of the earth. Some wind up in places like Argentina or Jamaica. It never hurts to do that "global" search and save the results to check out later. One of my relatives went AWOL on a South Pacific Island, married the native girl, then found out that his Royal Navy ship had been sunk at Coronel. I still wonder if the Royal Navy in London ever knew of his absence. Lou

Hi, Missing Lincs, If you have "cloud-based" e-mail like Gmail or many others, where the e-mail is kept on the Internet, it is time to clean out your Trash folder, Spam folder and probably any e-mail older than July 1st. Let's free up some space! You may want to "export" your address list if the software supports that (as a kind of backup). Lou (list admin.)

Following on from Diana and Linda's comment, all of this large family of emigrants stuck it out and prospered. I like to think Isaac came back for his sweetheart, and they then eventually returned- maybe she was reluctant to go, or had family commitments. My Charles was Charles Frederick MUXLOW, born 1863 in Gosberton or Spalding (records vary) to Thomas and Mary MUXLOW (variously MUCKLOW/MUCKLEY/ MUXLOE). Mary's maiden name was WILKINSON. Charles F was the second to youngest of 9- with 3 sisters, one of whom Ann Wilkinson MUXLOW was my great-grandmother. The 5 oldest brothers, William (oh, sorry- that's a Bill!), Isaac, Edwin, John and Charles all eventually emigrated to Ontario. The first 4 went in the 1870s. Isaac went, came back and married Sarah RIPPIN, and had 3 children in Lincolnshire but then went again in the 1880s- this time farming and raising more children in Ontario, before eventually going on across the border into Michigan, where the last children were born. There were 14, as far as I can tell. Charles married Lucy MYERS in Gosberton and had 9 children, but in 1908 that family also eventually emigrated. crossing the border from Canada into Michigan on 24th October. I like to think he visited his brothers en route, as the MUXLOWs have always been keen on keeping family contact. I have a photo, sent to me by their descendants, of 4 or the 5 brothers together at a meeting, probably in the 1930s.. They still have family reunions and there's a Muxlow FB page. The youngest brother, Abraham, is reported on censuses to have health problems and stayed with his parents. My great grandmother, Ann Wilkinson MUXLOW married Thomas DALTON who was from Old Leake, and they moved to the northern industrial cities, eventually settling in Sheffield. One of her sisters, Isabelle moved to London, the other stayed in Lincolnshire. I do remember my mother talking of visiting family in Gosberton.
