>>surnames is comparatively recent, often preserving a phonetic spelling >>found in a seventeenth- or eighteenth-century parish register. Pharaoh is a reconstructed spelling of Faro, originally farrer, found also as Farrey, Farrah and Farrow in the seventeenth century." >>none of the names mentioned as being in the register are in the IGI There are Farrows in the IGI in the 17th century in Bedfordshire. And Faro is listed with Farrow or Pharoah. There are Farras in Bedforshire and Farrahs in Cambs. Also Dorset and Durham. Farey/Ferye/Fairy and other variations also in Beds. Reaney and Wilson also say they are all variations of Ferrer [an early Yorks name according to them] with local pronounciation causing the variations. Possibly Pharaoh/Farrow is similar to Phillimore/Filmore. Just depends - Bedfordshire was home to quite a few of the earliest colonists in America. And I see that Farrar Flinton [Pharaoh Flinton] is sometimes given as his first name. If he was Farrar or Ferrer that might point to the north of England. Since there are Flinton/Flinden/Flyndens in Bedfordshire 1500s-1600s maybe a Farrow [Pharaoh] - Flinton marriage produced his name. Liane

Remarkably, none of the names mentioned as being in the register are in the IGI.

Hello, all: I'm an Californian researching the English origins of my immigrant ancestors, two brother-in-laws who emmigrated to Jamestown, Virginia circa 1612/13. There are some tantalizing clues in the literature regarding the name of one of them, Pharaoh Flinton (a surgeon, according to the records of the Virginia Company of London), as follows: In "Curiosities of Puritan Nomenclature" Charles W.E. Bardsley states: "This affection for the Old Testament has never died out among the Nonconformists. The large batch of names I have already quoted from modern directors is almost wholly from the earlier Testament... Wherever Dissent is strong, there will be found a large proportion of these names. Amongst the passengers who went out to New England in James and Charles's reigns will be found such names as Boaz Sharpe, Esau del a Ware, Pharaoh Flinton, ... Obediah Hawes, ... Malachi Mallock ... . Occasionally an ... Epaphroditus Haughton, ... or Annanias Mann is met with; but these are few ... . Puritanism made early stand in Yorkshire, though in the matter of nomenclature the northern counties seem to have been the slowest to take up the new custom. Puritan names still linger in our northern dales. If we look over the pages of the directories of West Yorkshire and East Lancashire and strike out surnames, we could imagine we were consulting anciently inscribed registers of Joppa or Jericho. It would seem as if Canaan and the West Riding had got inextricably mixed. What a spectacle meets our eye? Within the limits of ten leaves we have three Pharaohs... Pharaoh occurs, and went out to Virginia, where it has ever since remained. It is, as already shown, familiar enough in Yorkshire." Furthermore, all the names can be found in one parish record, according to an article in "Overland Monthly and Out West Magazine" Volume LXXXV October 1927 Number 10: "In the Manchester Directory for 1877 we find a "Kerenhappuck Horrocks", while in 1850 there was one "Kesiah Simmons", and in 1862 "Eli-Lama-Sabachthani" Pressnail staggered along under his terrific load. Another luckless wight, bearing his sorrows thick upon him, was "Lamentations" Chapman, mentioned as early as 1590. "Dust" and "ashes" enjoyed great vogue. Here we find in one register a "Boaz" Sharpe, "Pharaoh" Flinton, "Obadiah" Hawes, "Malachi" Mallock, "Epaphroditus" Haughton, "Annanias" Mann. Surely "Barabbas" was not a happy thought, still there was a "Barabbas" Bower in 1713." On the other hand, "A dictionary of English surnames" By Percy Hide Reaney and Richard Middlewood Wilson University of Sheffield 1958, flatly states that "[t]he modern form of many of our surnames is comparatively recent, often preserving a phonetic spelling found in a seventeenth- or eighteenth-century parish register. Pharaoh is a reconstructed spelling of Faro, originally farrer, found also as Farrey, Farrah and Farrow in the seventeenth century."... no mention of religion! My question to the lists is whether or not anyone has heard of any of these particular names, and knows which parish register is being referred to? Thanks and regards, Stephanie

Meredith Not helping you query, but here in Australia, out of 11 of my Grandfather and his siblings only 1 was registered at birth, 6 of them born in a fairly major town of Williamstown in Victoria. The other 5 born in the country. My parents then continued the tradition with me. My birth was not registered until I was 22 years of age, and I was born in 1952. So no accounting for what people will or wont do. Regards Joy

Hi Meredith, This link might help you pin point where you need to go to see the registers: http://www.manchester.gov.uk/info/448/archives_and_local_studies/462/family_history_in_manchester/4 There is a website called "Missing Ancestors" which contains all sorts of information on children's schools and charities from all over England. A lot of it is to do with Industrial Schools, but there are databases always being added that cover more diverse stuff... http://www.missing-ancestors.com/ Hope you get lucky :o) Regards, Sally ---------------------------------------- > ....the Mary Ann Turtle that I need to find never married. I have the images for the 1891 census where she is living with the Dunns. I believe that this the correct young lady. On her first son's birth certificate, the name is Patrick Francis McDonald Turtle and on son William's marriage record in Quebec, his father's name is given as Patrick Francis McDonald. Coincidently, on the 1891 census where Mary Ann is living with the Dunns, there is a Patrick McDonald living with another family but I think in the same house. I need the Catholic records because she placed 2 of her sons, William and John, with Catholic charities and William was baptized 4 May 1905 at St Anne's in Oldham, at the age of 5 years old. This ancestor has been extremely difficult to trace.

Many thanks to Anne and Antony, I have researched the Mary Ann Turtle born to James and Jane - she married sometime in the 1890's, the Mary Ann Turtle that I need to find never married. I have the images for the 1891 census where she is living with the Dunns. I believe that this the correct young lady. On her first son's birth certificate, the name is Patrick Francis McDonald Turtle and on son William's marriage record in Quebec, his father's name is given as Patrick Francis McDonald. Coincidently, on the 1891 census where Mary Ann is living with the Dunns, there is a Patrick McDonald living with another family but I think in the same house. I need the Catholic records because she placed 2 of her sons, William and John, with Catholic charities and William was baptized 4 May 1905 at St Anne's in Oldham, at the age of 5 years old. This ancestor has been extremely difficult to trace. I never thought that there was still people in the late 19th century that didn't register the birth of their children. Live and learn alot! Meredith

Hi Meredith, I have found a Mary Ann Turtle on 1881 census--in Preston Richard,Westmorland, and 1891 census--in Gorton,Manchester.with parents James and Jane,on both her birthplace is given as Westmorland, birth year 1873. I can send images if you think it might be her.

Can you add anything at all ? I found three children registered but couldn't find her in 1881 or 1901. The Dunn family with who she was living in 1891 also had two children whose births don't appear to have been registered. I couldn't spot a likely Dunn(e)?turtle marriage either to account for the step daughter relationship. I did spot a Polly Turtle in Chorlton in 1881 but she appears to have parents with her.

Hello Patricia An address search in 1851 shows two possible street names for Manchester - Court Edge Street and Edge Street. Edge Street is listed as in Registration districts Chorlton, Manchester and the Township of Manchester. The only one with a number 4 is the Chorlton address which is in Hulme but no Blessington listed I am afraid. Both streets are still there in 1861.
