Surnames: Snelgrove, Doughty Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/EUC.2ACI/3146 Message Board Post: My ancestestors came to Northumberland County, Hamilton Township, Ontario, Canada in the 1850's and were orginally from Deverill-Longbridge, Wiltshire. I really do not know alot about the family in England and was wondering if anyone else may be researching these names. Stephen Snelgrove married to Ann? was born in Deverill-Longbridge about 1790. He had a brother named Edward who (born 1787) who remained in Longbridge & was buried there in 1835. There was also an aunt of Stephen & Edward's buried there named Sarah Snelgrove (born 1754) & died 1844. Stephen & Ann ? (born about 1791, Heytesbury Wiltshire) had the following children: Andrew, George, Sarah Anne, Sarah, John & William. I have been able to obtain their christening information. Son, John Stephen Snelgrove (born August 1820) married Ann Doughty (born 1826). In the 1851 census John & Ann do not seem to have been married as yet because John is shown living with his parents & siblings. I do not know who Ann's p! arents are. My grandfather was named after his grandmother...his name was Ellis Doughty Snelgrove (I am not sure if the Ellis name means anything or not). Any additional information on these families would be very much appreciated! Thank you in advance, Cindy Smith
