I recently discovered through the census that Charles Purnell's birthplace was Clifton, GLS. Have been unable to find his parents. CHARLES PURNELL was born Abt. 1802 in Clifton, Gloucestershire, England, and died 3 May 1868 in New Plymouth, New Zealand. He married SARAH ANN CLEGG 8 February 1837 in St Mary, Newington, Surrey, daughter of THOMAS CLEGG and SARAH GURR. She was born Bef. 14 July 1814 in Christchurch, Surrey, England, and died 28 Thanks Allana Jakarta, Indonesia

Hi Caroline and Margaret, There is an area called Lower Easton in Bristol, which is roughly between Stapleton Road and Whitehall Road.

Richard Dighton was a very famous artist (painter and caricaturist), as were some other members of his family. A few years ago, there was an exhibition of his work at the National Portrait gallery. I wasn't aware that he did photography, but he could have done, and also it could be another member of his family. The best website showing his work seems to be the National Portrait gallery: http://www.npg.org.uk/live/search/person.asp?search=sa <http://www.npg.org.uk/live/search/person.asp?search=sa&sText=Richard+Dighto n&LinkID=mp01301&role=art> &sText=Richard+Dighton&LinkID=mp01301&role=art If you do a google search you can find other work by him.

Hello Everyone, I trust this posting is compliant with the List Administrator. Am interested to learn if anyone on the list is researching the surname, Arnold, from the Thornbury region, or has any of those listed below in their tree? Richard Arnold married Sarah Thompson, 27 May, 1795, Thornbury, and their known of children: Luke, b. 4 Dec, 1795 [died 1847], Richard, b. 9 May, 1798, Thomas, b. 23 June, 1799, and Elizabeth, b. 1 Dec, 1801. Luke married a Sarah Arnold, 9 Oct, 1832, at Thornbury. Thomas married Edna Bennett, 15 April, 1823, at Thornbury. Regards, Marina New Zealand

Hello Maurice, Yes that is the only reference to McCabe in Gwen Hart's book. We can see that you have had a lot of helpful answers and the only thing we can add is that there is a marriage of a James McCabe in the Dec quarter of 1841 Gloucester 11 449. You could always send for this certificate although we have no way of knowing whether this is your wife's ancestor or not. Unfortunately there were 4 different marriages on the same page, but this James McCabe's wife would have been either Sarah Glover, Amelia Hawkins, Harriet Lewis or Charlotte Venn.

Information on the census is only as good as the informant. It's possible that he could have moved there when he was very young and didn't know he was born elsewhere. A *lot* of PURNELLs were from North Somerset and made their way across the county to Bristol and the surrounding area (including Clifton) and on into South Wales. Some of my own PURNELLs did exactly that. I'll have a root around in my collection of PURNELLs and see if there's a Charles who was baptised around 1802. > CHARLES PURNELL was born Abt. 1802 in Clifton, Gloucestershire, > England, and died 3 May 1868 in New Plymouth, New Zealand.

Hi Karen I don't know much at all about Harriet WINTLE apart from the fact she married George SINEGAR in 1812.George was the brother of my great great grandfather Daniel SINEGAR. Interestingly Daniel's son THOMAS SINEGAR was transported to Australia in 1829 and whilst I was trying to find more about his life there I found that there was a THOMAS WINTLE SINEGAR in South Australia who married an ELIZABETH BARLOW (I think). I believe she was taken to Australia by Thomas and set sail from Liverpool. Does this mean anything to you?

Hi, whilst at work today I had a look at the following book G A CARDEW "ECHOES & REMINISCENCES" which is a book containing short biographies of drs practicing in Cheltenham during C19 The entry for your doctor is McCabe, James 27 Cambray 1826-1837-1839 I also checked in the directories of the time and found him in the earliest we hold, and gone by 1842 appears in Cheltenham Annuaire in 1837 > 1841 as a practising physician > not in 1842 Hope this adds to some of the interesting information that others have already given Lynne

Maurice, It looks as if his will is held at Gloucestershire Archives (www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/genealogy/Results.aspx). You can download an order form off the site and obtain a copy of it by post. I cannot find a James McCabe (or variants) in the 1841 census of Cheltenham, but there is this candidate in St Mary, Lambeth: HO107/1061/1, folio 47, page 20 Sutton St James MCCABE 40 Surgeon Born in county no There is also the death registration of a James MCCABE in the September qtr 1850 at Cheltenham reg district, vol 11, page 149 on FreeBMD which ties in with the date of 1850 on the will. Hope this helps.

Message 5: My gr gt gt grandfather Thomas Lodge was born in Westbury-on-Severn circa 1806. He married Mary Ann Lewis on March 3 1829 at St Mary's, Swansea, Glamorgan. Among their children were: Thomas, Marianna, William, Charles, Elizabeth and Harriett Jane. Elizabeth Lodge (born March 29, 1841 in Swansea) is my gt gt grandmother. Her second marriage was to Henry Hiam (born circa 1846 in Cheltenham) on February 24, 1873 in Swansea, and one of their daughters - my gt grandmother, Jane Hiam - married Samuel Atherton in 1896 in Swansea. If you think there may be a Lodge connection (especially with the Glamorgan link) I'd be grateful for any other information you may have on the family. Jenny

What a great bunch you all are. Am overwhelmed with all the interest and help. Thanks to you all I now know that I haven't been looking far enough back for births, I have a marriage date, and also know where in Gloucester Hester SMITH nee BEER was born. Plus the later Census ages indicate they were actually 27 and 28 years old in 1841. Pat, I had missed your earlier email - changed over to a new computer at start of year and have lost a few things. My kind regards and thanks to everyone. Joan in Oz
