Hello Ed, You may be interested in how the MILLINGTON name connects with my PACE ancestry and BRADLEY (Staffordshire) is also where my 3X grat grandfather was said to be from.

The inter-marriages are interesting as several of these names mentioned below are involved. http://www.pacefamilyhistory.info/uk/whit.htm - shows: Daughter of SAMUEL CHIDLOW & JANE MILLINGTON ELIZABETH CHIDLOW b 1846 wed RICHARD SUMNER b 1848 - WHITCHURCH RICHARD SUMNER's mother was a PACE RICHARD PACE + JANE TURNER b 3 Oct 1777 WHITCHURCH - m 1 Apr 1797 WEM, Shropshire - witnesses THOMAS COOKE and FRANCIS OWEN MARY PACE b 27 Feb 1814 - TILSTOCK + WILLIAM SUMNER - m 21 Nov 1842 WHITCHURCH RICHARD SUMNER b 1848 - WHITCHURCH - d January 1931 + ELIZABETH CHIDLOW b 1846 - MARKET DRAYTON - wed 29 Dec 1870 WHITCHURCH d/o SAMUEL CHIDLOW & JANE MILLINGTON from 1881 census Tilstock Source: FHL Film 1341640 * Alice Ann SUMNER b 1870 - WHITCHURCH d.
