Hello, I am looking to correspond with other WESTONs or their close relations interested in participating in a family DNA study. If you are interested please contact me off-list. Also, for the interest of all WESTON family researchers, I have compiled a list of all the entries for the male WESTONs (and various spellings) born before 1813 from the 1851 England & Wales census (Ancestry index) and plotted them on Google Maps. My idea was to look for the geographic clusters of WESTONs. There were four or five such clusters. In order of size they were at Staffordshire, Leicester, Wiltshire, Sussex and Middlesex. If you would like to see the maps please contact me off-list as well. The website I am using is hosted by the DNA testing company I am using for the WESTON Project. Cheers, David Weston Nova Scotia, Canada

Hi Listers I'm researching my husband's maternal family, recently tracked down to Wiltshire. His 2GGF was James Charles HALE, b 1820, Quidhampton, who married Julia BUCKLAND, b 1830, Shaftesbury. DOR. James's father, John HEALE, m Ann MACEY (both born Coombe Bissett) in 1812. We'd like to find out more about Ann MACEY, d/o James MACEY and Jane YOUNG, who m in Coombe Bissett in 1770. Is anyone researching these names, please? Kind regards Joy

Thank you Jim for helping remove the red mist. I'd been looking so long at the 1841 that I could not see anything, so a fresh pair of eyes are a blessing. Yes I'll go with Margaret being Mary Ann HELLARD especially as her brother Henry John HELLARD c1847 appears with the family in later censuses. But why the Grand Parents documented her name wrongly is a mystery? So I've now been looking for a possible Elizabeth TAYLOR in the Middle of Bradford on Avon! Now there's a thought? Some possible's have appeared! Do you think it also possible that Mary Ann HELLARD, who always stated that South Wraxall or Bradford was where she was born, could have in fact been registered at Wellington, Somerset which is possibly the nearest RO to Ashbrittle where her Father originated. If I could find some information about James first wife or the date he married the second, then the picture would be much clearer. Thanks again for easing the step forward.

Hi Folks, Greetings from Toronto, Canada. Richard Hull LAWRENCE, my cousin, was born in Hill Farm in Hinton Parva, Wilts, about 1882, a son of James and Martha (nee FROGLEY) LAWRENCE, farmers. On November 19th., 1913, in Lullington, Som., he married Elizabeth Blanche S., of Lullington. Richard was a farmer in Round Robin Farm in Highworth, Wilts, in 1915. He, later, farmed in Rectory Farm, Idstone, in the parish of Ashbury, Berks (now Oxon). Elizabeth Blanche LAWRENCE 87 was buried in Ashbury in 1964. Richard died in Rectory Farm, Idstone, Ashbury, in 1968 and was buried in Ashbury. Richard and Elizabeth had issue: 1. Richard Geoffrey LAWRENCE, born at Round Robin Farm in Highworth, Wilts in 1915; farmer at Rectory Farm, Idstone, Ashbury; occasional churchwarden in Ashbury; buried in Ashbury in 1972; Richard was married and had issue, a son and a daughter, both baptized in Ashbury; 2. James Douglas LAWRENCE, born about 1916; by the early 1940s, he was married and a farmer in Idstone, in the parish of Ashbury; in 1943, he was farming in Wanborough, Wilts; James and his wife had issue, a daughter who was baptized in Ashbury; 3. John Rex LAWRENCE, born about 1919; he was a banker, in Devizes in 1947 and in Coventry in 1951; died in 1981 and buried in Ashbury; John Rex LAWRENCE and his wife had issue, a son and a daughter, both baptized in Ashbury; 4. Diana Mary LAWRENCE, born about 1924; in 1950 she was married in Ashbury church and they had issue. I have just oodles of information on the LAWRENCE clan of Wilts and Berks. I am actively researching the descendants of this family and would love to make contact with any relation or researcher of this family. Best wishes. Peter Ferreira.

Hi List, Greetings from Toronto, Canada. Looking for the family or descendants of Jethro Kinch COLEING (c1859 - 1928), farmer of Hampton in the parish of Highworth, Wilts. On April 26th., 1905, in Shrivenham, Berks, Jethro Kinch COLEING 46, farmer of Highworth district, married Ethel Marion LAWRENCE 28, of Shrivenham. Ethel was a cousin of mine. Jethro lived and farmed in Hampton in the parish of Highworth, Wilts. From 1906 to 1918, in Highworth church, eight of their children were baptized from Mary (1906) to Charles (1918). Jethro COLEING was buried in Highworth churchyard, from Hampton, in 1928. His widow, Ethel Marion COLEING 94 was buried there from West Lodge, Reading in 1970. I have oodles of information on the ancestry and laterals of Ethel Marion LAWRENCE. I am not researching the ancestry of Jethro Kinch COLEING. I would love to make contact and share family history information with any researher or descendant of this family. Best wishes. Peter Ferreira.

My thanks to David H-B, Dot Gulliver and Anne, for their imput to my request. All has been noted and placed in the appropiate folder for further ref. I appreciate the time, and help, that you each have given me. There must be a moral in my story somewhere, about not posting to the List after one's bed-time !!!, I smiled when I read your reply Dot, about the gap of 118 years, before, the 1841 census !, at that time of the night, I couldn't tell the difference between 1823 and 1723, people like yourselves, must dispair with people like me <grin> Your reply was so informative, I will study further and come back to you. Again, thanks to you three Phyllis from down-under.

Sorry to disappoint you, but of course the censuses only note living people and you need the Parish Registers for baptisms, marriages etc. As another Lister had told you, Derby is a long way from Tisbury and although anything is possible I would doubt that this Joseph is the right one The IGI (familysearch) website ( which is where I assume you found Joseph's baptism) doesn't cover all parishes and very few of the villages near Tisbury are recorded. I wonder if the Tisbury baptism you found was a private submission to the IGI site as the Tisbury Registers, as far as I know, aren't recorded there either There are generations of Burtons in the Tisbury area and I have a few attached to my family who lived in and around Donhead St Mary which is just a few miles away. If you have a Family Records Centre near your home I suggest you go there and search the Tisbury Registers and those of the nearby villages. The website http://www.streetmap.co.uk/ will allow you see the Tisbury area. I have never used a Family Record Centre, so I don't know if they loan records out or not. Perhaps someone else can help with that information. If all else fails contact me off list and I can give you the website address of a family 'firm' who specialise in Wiltshire research. I can't give you the URL here as that would be viewed as advertising and isn't permitted.

Sorry to disappoint you, but of course the censuses only note living people and you need the Parish Registers for baptisms, marriages etc. As another Lister had told you, Derby is a long way from Tisbury and although anything is possible I would doubt that this Joseph is the right one The IGI (familysearch) website ( which is where I assume you found Joseph's baptism) doesn't cover all parishes and very few of the villages near Tisbury are recorded. I wonder if the Tisbury baptism you found was a private submission to the IGI site as the Tisbury Registers, as far as I know, aren't recorded there either There are generations of Burtons in the Tisbury area and I have a few attached to my family who lived in and around Donhead St Mary which is just a few miles away. If you have a Family Records Centre near your home I suggest you go there and search the Tisbury Registers and those of the nearby villages. The website http://www.streetmap.co.uk/ will allow you see the Tisbury area. I have never used a Family Record Centre, so I don't know if they loan records out or not. Perhaps someone else can help with that information. If all else fails contact me off list and I can give you the website address of a family 'firm' who specialise in Wiltshire research. I can't give you the URL here as that would be viewed as advertising and isn't permitted.

Goodmorning Dot. I posted my request last night before I hit the sack, during a sleepless night, it came to me, that the 41 census didn't give too much info, sorry to yourself also David HB and Dawn, who kindly repied to my query. Actually the little info could help me, in as much as it gives whether the person was born in the County or not. My search is for the parents of Lawrence BURTON c4-June-1723 in Tisbury, it gives his parents as Joseph and Betty BURTON. Surfing the LDS website, I could only find a Joseph BURTON birth about 1695 of St Peter, Derby, Derby and his marriage to Elizabeth ROBOTHAM on the 17 Sept 1720 at St Peter, Derby, Derby that fitted the bill < Betty is also used for Elizabeth>. I fully realise that this a long shot, I also do not know how far Derby is from Tisbury, in Wiltshire. Incidentally Lawrence BURTON married a Hannah ? and Lawrence is my 4xgt Grandfather, on my Maternal side.

Would any kind Lister with access to the 1841 census a look-up for me please, For Joseph and Elizabeth (Betty) BURTON, with at least one son Lawrence. I would particularly like to know if Joseph and his wife were born in Derby, but all info would be greatly appreciated. with thanks Phyllis Bartlett steel from Qld. Aust.

Phyllis Tisbury is about 130 miles from Derby.
