Hi Ailsa I have only one Kilvin(g)ton on my database. On May 20 1754 Barbara Kilvinton married Thomas Tyerman at Osmotherley in North Yorkshire. She was buried there on May 11 1781. They had at least two children. Paddy ----- Original Message ----- From: Ailsa Petrie To: Rootsweb Nth Yorkshire List Sent: Friday, December 14, 2007 7:32 AM Subject: [ENG-NORTH-YORKS] South Kilvington Monumental Inscriptions I am interested in any mention of the KILVINGTON name. With many thanks Ailsa Petrie Hamilton New Zealand
Hello Paddy, Thank you for your reply. All the Kilvingtons of my family have been found at Landmoth (to date). I have traced them definitely back to 1686 and have information that they were there back to the 1500s. Kilvington appears to have been a Nth Yorkshire name, so further back still, all the families possible converge on one place and the Victoria History series seems to indicate South Kilvington in the 1300s. I think sometimes that I should begin a one name study, but time and other interests doesn't allow. It's interesting to see that different families of the same name had a distinctive cluster of forenames that were used generation after generation. Barbara doesn't appear in any of the people I have traced to date, for instance, mine are all Thomas, Elizabeth, Mary, Hannah, Harriet, William , John, Jane, James etc. I shall add your Barbara to my database, you never know, there may be a link somewhere, someday.
