Adrienne, Thanks for looking! I know what you mean about the family names repeating, William and Sanford are both repeated numerous times in my geneology. Silas and Peyton are others that repeat quite often. My William married Sallie (Sarah) Massey daughter of Nancy Burriss and Noel Massey (I have lots of info on her side of the family too) William is just my brick wall! Lots of info in the Anderson County, SC history on these families. I've even tried posting these to the county message boards. Good luck in your search! Cathy

Cathy, I am pretty sure that none of my Shaws were here prior to 1850. While I do not know William's middle name, I am pretty sure that it could not be Sanford since that name never appears in the family history. The same first names are generally repeated over and over in both families. Adrienne

I have been trying to locate the parents of Angeloah SHAW for a number of years and all I have is that he was born in NY in about 1818. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Frank Puzzledfrank@aol.com

Hi, Are you sure about that? My Dudley line from England almost all had middle names. My Great grandfather and all of his siblings had middle names. They were all born in England in the 1870's - 1880's . I haven't found any yet for the generations before that thought. But then again I haven't found much of anything at all on the other generations yet. I know that my Dudley's weren't royalty, they were just common people. Thanks Carol Researching: SHAW,DUDLEY,COVINGTON,GRAY,McCann,BAILEY,SNELL and many more. Viola Seward wrote: > > Believe no middle names were used by the common people in England.

Hi, I'm new to this site so I thought I should introduce myself. Both my grandfather's were named John Shaw. My mother's family can be traced back as far as James Shaw who emigrated to Huddersfield, Yorkshire about 1841. James is listed as being from Connaught, Ireland (probably County Mayo bordering Roscommon). He married Margaret Leyden from Roscommon. We have had difficulty establishing exactly where James came from. My father's family is probably from Leitrim. His father married Mary Maguire in New York. My father's grandfather was William Shaw and his mother was Susan White. I have lots of information about James' family who moved to the East Newark area when Margaret died (1880's?). James worked for Coats and Clark in England and the US. Some of the family remained in NJ and some moved to NY (my ggrandfather Patrick Shaw). If anyone is not thoroughly confused and would like additional information, just contact me at this site. Adrienne

ALFRED HEMINGWAY GREAT LOSS TO LOCAL MUSIC By the death in Batley Hospital last Friday of Mr. Alfred Hemingway, music circles in the Heavy Woollen District and the North of England have suffered a great loss: he was a master of the violincello and had a brilliant reputation of a foremost executant both in solo and chorus work. He was 61 and lived with his wife, Amy, at 103 Mill Road, Batley Carr, Dewsbury. Mr Hemingway was the son of the late Mr. William Hemingway of Batley and came from a family which made its mark on the musical history of this district; his father’s choice was the violin, while his uncle Mr. Tom Hemingway played the piano, and his uncle Walter Hemingway (who is living in retirement in Cleethorpes) was a fine exponent of the cello; while a younger member of the family chose the same instrument, his sister, Mrs. Letitia Preston Kemp of Blackpool (nee Miss Letitia Hemingway) was a leading local soprano vocalist for a long time. Mr. Alfred Hemingway had a distinguished career from his boyhood, his first notable engagement being at The Kinsall, Harrogate when he was 14; he had been a member of the Northern Philharmonic Orchestra for many years and was playing with The Spa Orchestra at Scarborough as recently as a fortnight ago. He had broadcast on many occasions. Dewsbury Permanent Orchestra, which Mr Alfred Hemingway conducted for many years owed much to his leadership. He conducted Ossett Orchestra some years ago and introduced many eminent musicians to the Heavy Woollen District. Last winter he conducted a number of orchestral concerts at the Dewsbury Town Hall in aid of the Dewsbury Infirmary. As a teacher of the cello, Mr. Hemingway’s services were in wide demand. THE FUNERAL The funeral took place at Dewsbury Cemetery, being preceded by a Service at Batley Carr parish church, taken by the Vicar, the Rev. C.A.Maughan of St. Marks. Family mourners present included Mrs Amy Hemingway (widow), Mrs. P. Kemp (sister), Mr. and Mrs. J. Haigh (brother in law and sister), Mr. and Mrs. C. Shaw (brother in law and sister), Mr. and Mrs. C. Rowley, Mrs. E. Carter, Miss P. Harris, Mrs A. Charlesworth, Mr. E. Ingham and Mr. J. Laycock (cousins), Mr. R. Haigh and Mr. J. Binns (nephews) Other present included Edward Maude, Edgar Drake and Mr. S.H. Smith (Northern Philharmonic Orchestra) R. Hebblestone, J. Ingle, H. Barker, C. Burnley, B. Oldroyd, C. Haigh, J. Beech, L. Brunton, A. Fox, A. Exley, C.W. Hirst (representing Dewsbury Permanent Orchestra) Messrs. C. Scott, and W.E. Shires (Musicians’ Union) Misses Roebuck and G. Wormald (Ossett Orchestra) Plus many friends Many floral tributes were made. Is anyone connected with Alfred and Amy Hemingway of Batley Carr? Ron
