Hello Alan. I am sorry I have no idea where that is bcause like you I live in Australia. If you do a google search it may tuen up. Mary ann may have just been Mary when she was christened then Ann may have been added later. I had a Mary Ann who turned into an Elizabeth later in life.

Thank you, Bev: the Mary Mallinson excused her rates could well be the right lady - how very interesting. On the 1861 census she is reported to be 90, although I take it with a pinch of salt. I don't think Martha has come into the picture before, so I will have to see how she fits in: she may be a descendant of one of Selina's siblings - but again that might well be outside marriage as they were mostly sisters! and I think George died young. cheers Maggie Maggie Found these mallinsons on wakefield website there abit later than you are looking at but may be of some use There is a Mary Mallinson as being excused paying her rates on this website http://www.wakefieldfhs.org.uk/Accounts%201858%20-%20arrears~%20Westgate.htm The year is 1858 There is also a Martha Mallinson receiving relief from Wakefield union http://www.wakefieldfhs.org.uk/Wakefield%20Union%20~%20Wakefield%20pt%202.ht m in 1886 Bev

I have wondered the same thing. I have not been able to find out anything about this Jabez Wilkinson and Mary Atha except for their marriage.

Yes, Terry, I looked at them at Guild Hall. They do not give Mary's maiden name, nor do they give from where in England Jabez came, which is what I'm trying to figure out. Sarah Parker was my great great grandmother's sister. I have letters she wrote to my great grandmother from St. Petersburg. But thanks for the suggestion. The British Chaplencey records were a great help because Jabez died about a year after Sarah married him and she later married James Thornton in 1838. Before going to the Guild Hall I had been aware only that Sarah had been married to James Thornton. I have been trying to figure out if Sarah went to St. Petersburg to work and met Jabez there, or if she had known Jabez Wilkinson in England and went there to marry him after Mary's death. I'm not sure if in the 1830's a single woman would go to another country by herself to work.

Thanks for that, Mary... ...."my" Mary always seemed to give her name as "Mary Ann". However, would you know where "Lees Moor(e?)" was relative to Upperthong? Cheers Alan

Hello Janet, It is good to hear from you again.What I am experiencing after almost 10 years of research is that good leads are few and far between and becomes more difficult to identify what is right and what is wrong, but we will try it William Fox, married Betty TORDOFF, Betty was born 13 Jan 1814 to James TORDOFF and Mary GREENHOUGH. Of more significance to my 'tree' is Sarah FOX who married Squire TORDOFF in 17 Sept 1781. Sarah is my third great grandmother. I have 10 WILKINSONs who are distantly relayed to me and/or are of in-law relationships. let me know if you would like the data and I will send it to.you.

Does anyone have information on a Jabez Wilkinson? He married a Mary in England, and went to St. Petersburg, Russia where Mary died. He then married Sarah Parker who was from Sheffield on 10 December 1832 in St. Petersburg.

My brick wall seems to be building itself ever higher. In my efforts to find the parentage of Selina MALLINSON my ggggmother, born Wakefield 1831, and which is not clarified by her marriage certificate because there is no trace of the father she names as John, I have found the following: 1. 1841 and onwards census returns for the Wakefield Mallinson family. There's only one such family, so I know it has to be right. 2. identified from these census returns 4 siblings, all reported born Wakefield. Neither Selina nor any of her siblings seem to have a record in the IGI, under any Wakefield batch number nor under those for Hook, Howden (or Goole for luck) which is where her mother was from: only one brother was born after 1837 and I've ordered his birth certificate. But the others are all a mystery. 3. Selina's sister Lucy MALLINSON married the local blacksmith, William BENNETT, a widower. She was single and living with her mother in 1861, and in 1871 shows children born from 1862 onwards, when William is also living in the Mallinson household. I say he was local because both families lived on Westgate in the centre of Wakefield. I can't find any marriage for these two individuals (separately) in a Wakefield district, and I've checked the images of the registers online, not just transcripts. Another mystery. I am seriously beginning to think Selina's mother Jane never married and bore all her children under her maiden name. Would this have been a barrier to getting them baptised? or to getting formally married? What am I missing or doing wrong? Is there a publication of the Wakefield registers? I should just add a story: there's someone else finding the same brick wall, and coincidentally we both posted on Curious Fox in the same week. It turns out he's a third cousin previously unknown. So sometimes brick walls are good for you .. Maggie

I am so excited about your answer Antony. You quote: Whilst I don't subscribe to FMP, I noticed a W R Scuffins left Liverpool in 1912 and a female Scuffins left Liverpool for Canada in 1912. Where did you notice this information? I would like to follow up on it as SCUFFIN or SCUFFINS is not a familiar name and it is quite possible that it is them. Please could you let me know where it says that a W R Scuffins left Liverpool in 1912 and a female Scuffins left Liverpool for Canada in 1912? They married in 1908, so they could certainly have left Liverpool (they lived in Leeds) in 1912 in separate voyages. I noticed that my grandfather came to Canada first in 1923 and brought his family on a different ship a few months later. Maybe a lot of people chose to have the man come first to look for a job and then send for this wife. But I wonder why their names do not come up on any passenger list that I have been searching!!! Thank you again and if anyone else has another suggestion, it would be greatly appreciated. Carol Ann Rigg

Hi again, Alan I have a problem with my HINCHLIFFE's prior to 1812. My direct ancestor was Mary Ann HINCHLIFFE born 1812 in Upperthong (from 3 censuses) or Greave (1 census). Unfortunately there's a strong chance she was illegit. On her marriage certif (1838, Almondbury) to my g-g grandfather, Charles WRIGHT, she gives no father. However, I have found that there is a widow, Elizabeth HINCHLIFF, living in Greave (a very small hamlet) in the 1841 census. And so it's possible that my Mary Ann (incorrectly) left her father off the marriage certif because he was dead. I have been wracking my brains as to how I can sort this out, but all the obvious lines of attack (LDS film records etc) have come to nothing. Cheers Alan

Hello Alan, On the IGI there is a Mary Hinchliffe b. 1812 @ Lees Moore Yorkshire her parents Joaeph Hinchliffe and Elizabeth. Have you seen that one?

I am researching my surname HUDDLESTON and have traced it back to an ANTHONY HUDDLESTON who settled in Easington, West Ridings about 1630. He married an Alice Chapman in 1636 and had four children ; Thomas, William, John and Margaret. I have, as yet, no concrete evidence on where ANTHONY came to Easington from although I have a strong suspicion that it was from the Millom area in Cumberland. Is there anyone on the West Riding list that can cast any light on this. Thanks Robin Huddleston

Hi, I have been researching the name of FOX as my sixth great grandmother was Sarah FOX born before 1786, married Squire TORDPOFF in Bradford on Sept 17, 1781. I also have a William FOX who married a Betty TORDOFF who was born Jan 13, 1814. they had one daughter Mary FOX who was born in 1837. Unfortunately I have no further details

Is there anything to suggest that he was a traveller or something similar. Maybe he passed away in Scotland or overseas.
