Abt 1753 St. Mary, Dover, Kent; m. 25 Oct 1790 St. Mary, Virgin, Westerham, Kent; d. Sep 1831: Ann SHEPHARD: b. 30 Jun 1765 , Kent; d. Dec 1830 Dover.( Dates are spread out but they are all buried together & lived together in Dover at various times, along with a JOAN DURAND on Adrian Street later years. Could Joanne be a product of a first marriage for James???) parent of: William Durand b: 1802 (proven) Samuel Durand b: 1803 (proven) Daniel Durand b: 1808 (proven) possible parent of: Joanne DURAND: b. Abt 1790 and F Frederick MAYNE: m. 7 Nov 1806 St. Mary the Vir, Dover, Kent, England and Thomas SCRIVEN: b. 4 Jul 1784 West Cowes, Isle of Wight; m. , Isle of Wight; d. 24 Feb 1848* West Cowes, Isle of Wight &Sarah:b.

Ann Phillis Mayne, Ann Mayne Durand, James Frederick Durand Mayne, Frederick Dewran Mayne etc. My own mother was Ivy Phillis Durand.........

Hi All, Received an enquiry today re the surname MUNT and EDSALL from the Calbourne area in particular William Munt married to a Mary Edsell on December 12, 1775 Calbourne. Anyone think they are connected to this couple please email me off list. Cheers Angela

Hi Listers, I have been told by a fellow researcher about a Paul Kearley who was researching the KEARLEY name and apparently had a website. The email address she had for him must have changed as her last email was returned unopened. Can anyone help or are you on the List Paul. Thanks Sally Malyon

http://freespace.virgin.net/roger.hewitt/iwias/bricks.htm Came across this interesting site with several Island families mentioned. Angela

It has been a while since I posted but thought it worth re-trying the list - I'm eager to research the arrival of a family named EVELEIGH on the Island in the 1860's....the family was headed by Dinah and Joseph EVELEIGH, from a farm in Devon where they had lived/worked for a no' of generations. In the 1891 census their surname had been mis-spelt as Eveligh, or similar, so it took a while to locate them! They are listed at "Waitsail" at Arreton (Ag' Lab's) and by 1891 were in Carisbrooke Workhouse both aged in their 70's.... their youngest son (Harold I think) was in the army barracks in Newport by 1891 or 1901. I'd love to find out anything about how, why and when they arrived on the island, how they found work at Arreton, and any Poor Records there may be of them...so all help most gratefully received.

I have a copy of the Parish of Ryde Magazine, No.447, from March 1913. It was kept because the confirmation of my gt-grandmother and one of her sons is listed. I don't want to keep it, and will happily pass it on to anyone who is interested. (British postal addresses, sorry all of you lovely listers who live abroad!) Ron Dunning

>>I am hoping that SKS would look at the Card Index in the Record Office to see how a person more familiar with Island surnames indexed the following Bride's surname. James GRAY married Jean CERVS/CEWS/ CERVS? November 29th 1748 Whitwell Jean GRAY was buried Whitwell May 15th 1750. I noted a burial for someone named CAWSE and wondered whether that was Jean's surname. However that did not appear to be what was written at the time of the marriage.<< Evelyn - is there a chance that the name is CAWS??? The reason I ask is that there are a LOT of them on the Island (have a few hanging out in my tree....) and that could be the root of the name you are after. There are a lot of misspellings of it as well, but if it is anything like the MURSELL family, your derivitive would be under CAWS. tee hee, this hick from Kansas got to spend Friday at the RO - first with the most delightful Don Hayward as my guide, then on my own. Ann and Les showed up, and Ann most graciously answered my bleats for help when I didn't understand what I was looking at. I will say this - there is a whole lot of really AWESOME stuff in that building, and one day was nowhere NEAR enough time for me to get even the tip of the iceberg unearthed. Now to figure out how to extend my ticket another week.... I had the most enjoyable pleasure of treating Ann and Les to dinner on Thursday night last at a most delightful dining spot, and would love to have been able to spend more time with them both. My favorite kind of folks - dearly beloved to be sure! --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? vote.yahoo.com - Register online to vote today!

Could someone advise me whether the Whitwell Church Registers are deposited at the Record Office? If so, is it possible to request a check of a particular entry? At present I am trying to decipher a LDS film of these record and have found an entry where the surname of a particular baptism disappears off the page. I noted the following: February 26th 1748 was born and baptised Elizabeth & Mary ye daughters of James .......? If someone could advise me if there is anyway of discovering this surname. Evelyn

Hello Evelyn, I have had a look on the IGI Batch Numbers for Hampshire (Whitwell), and I found only two christenings for the date 26 Feb 1748. They were for a Mary and an Elizabeth PAIN, father James PAIN. The address for the IGI Batch Numbers is, http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~hughwallis/IGIBatchNumbers.htm Hope this helps, Sally.

Found this and thought it might help those looking for Unions in the UK gives Record Office addresses as well all in alphabetical order. The Poor Law Union Database lists all Church of England parishes and many additional places and gives the name of the Union that place belonged to and an indication of which Record Office holds the records for that Union. http://www.fourbears.worldonline.co.uk/poorlaw.html Chris and Caroline --- All of our outgoing mail is checked and certified Virus Free by regularl updates Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
