It was Andrew's surname list ([email protected] ) that I was replying to, but coincidentally I am descended from a Hallam family and have various Hallam's scattered all over my family tree. There were lots of Hallam's in the Longton and Normacot areas. A connection is possible but without the marriage it's difficult to say. Eileen Hallam and Norman Hallam are both on this list (or at least they were) so I suspect they may also be replying. Both are "experts" on the Hallam name in the Longton area. Regards Earl.

Earl Please send me a list of surnames I think we have talked before!!! Here are mine Allaton/Allerton Allen Bullock Colclough Smith Hughes Podmore all from stoke on trent and Longton Area of Staffordshire [email protected] wrote: > In a message dated 17/03/2003 00:55:35 GMT Standard Time, [email protected] > writes: > > > > > Earl > > > > I note in your list of names HALLAM! > > > > In my husband's WOOLFE Tree a Gertrude CHARLES married a James HALLAM - > > from whence I know not- though family rumour says he was a gent - > > certainly very wealthy - they emigrated to NZ c 1906, but returned > > every 2 years for a trip home - > > Briefly - that part of the WOOLFE Family came from Audley/ Standon- but > > there were links to The Potteries from early in 19th century and later. > > Gertrude's Mother was Mary Anne WOOLFE b c 1850 of Standon who married c > > 1870 Daniel CHARLES, a Lawyer, and moved to York YKS, Daniel died and > > the family returned to Standon, and resided with Thomas WOOLFE at > > Standon Hall, by 1881 Census. > > > > Any connections possible ?? > > > > Regards > > > > > > Hi Helen. > > It was Andrew's surname list ([email protected] ) that I was > replying to, but coincidentally I am descended from a Hallam family and have > various Hallam's scattered all over my family tree.

Earl Thanks -Eileen has been in touch and doubts my James is of the Potteries:-) You comment details of the Marriage might help, and I agree , as yet we have not obtained a copy of the Marriage Cert. That just might give us some clues. :-) Regards Helen -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, 18 March 2003 12:59 a.m. To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Pots] Names - HALLAM In a message dated 17/03/2003 00:55:35 GMT Standard Time, [email protected] writes: > > Earl > > I note in your list of names HALLAM! > > In my husband's WOOLFE Tree a Gertrude CHARLES married a James HALLAM - > from whence I know not- though family rumour says he was a gent - > certainly very wealthy - they emigrated to NZ c 1906, but returned > every 2 years for a trip home - > Briefly - that part of the WOOLFE Family came from Audley/ Standon- but > there were links to The Potteries from early in 19th century and later. > Gertrude's Mother was Mary Anne WOOLFE b c 1850 of Standon who married c > 1870 Daniel CHARLES, a Lawyer, and moved to York YKS, Daniel died and > the family returned to Standon, and resided with Thomas WOOLFE at > Standon Hall, by 1881 Census. > > Any connections possible ?? > > Regards > > Hi Helen.
