William Westall (b.1748, Trowbridge) married Mary Moone (b.1750, Trowbridge) on 4 Dec 1769 in TRowbridge). He was the son of William Westell (1720, Trowbridge) and Mary Sollick who married 25 Jul 1744 in Trowbridge. William was the son of John Westall (1696, Keevil) and Mary Aishman (1697), who married 30 Nov 1718 in Keevil near Trowbridge. There is a John Westall (b.1598, Keevil) who married Margaret Gaisford (b.1597, Keevil) on 26 Jun 1619 in Keevil. They had a son John Westall (bap. 3 Oct 1619, Keevil), who married Joann Gifferie (1620, Keevil) on 27 Nov 1641. In turn they had a son John Westall (bap. 13 Jul 1643, Keevil). So far I have not made the connection between this earlier line of Keevil Westall's and the one from John and Mary Aishman. Going the other way, I have traced the line of Trowbridge Westall's down to the modern time, via Thomas Trull Davis (b.1828) who married Caroline Westall (b.1833, Trowbridge) in 1851 in Bath Somerset. Their descendants are still in the Bath area. The Keevil Westall's seem to be the earliest recorded Westall's in Wiltshire so far. Unless someone knows better! I also have heard rumours about the Westall's originating in Scotland in the 16th century. I think you may have got further down that line than me. I have plenty of Scottish ancestors on my mother's side, so I don't feel too deprived if I don't find any Scottish Westall's! But it would be nice to tie the rest of the Keevil/Trwobridge Westall's in with the other Westall groups. It is of course possible it's a completely independent branch, but that doesn't feel likely to me.

Hi Tim, Ah ... you're from the mysterious Trowbridge branch of the family! So far I've been quite unable to connect your branch with my side of the family, which originated in the Aldbourne/Baydon areas of Wiltshire. Was your Joseph Westall (23 Feb 1777, Trowbridge) the son of William Westell/Westall and Mary Moone? That branch seems to go back (possibly) to John Westall (1696, Keevil) and Mary Aishman (1697, Keevil). There seems to have been a sizeable Westall group in the Keevil area for several generations before that. They are tantilisingly geographically close to the other Westall groups of Wiltshire but so far no connection has been found, as far as I am aware. So I think you probably are a distant cousin of mine but I'm blowed if I can see how! ;o) Fred > From: WESTY459@aol.com > Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2009 12:46:09 -0500 > To: westall@rootsweb.com > Subject: Re: [WESTALL] Westall of Wiltshire > > Hello Westall World, > > I am descended from a Westall (Westhall) family from Wiltshire as well - > Anyone descended from Joseph Westall ands Lidia Millard - would like to here > from you.

Hi Fred, Yes - I am descended from the Joseph Westall son of William Westell/Westall and Mary Moone. That is as far back as I traced the family. Do you have any info going back from them to the John Westall and Mary Aishman that you mentioned. I was always told by old time relatives that the family originated from Scotland around 1530 and the Westall/Westhalls were from the Aborcrombie or Leith clans of Scotland. I was also told there was a Westhall castle somewhere in Scotland.

Thank you Bob for all your research. I have found William in all the Census records you mentioned and know that he died Sept 1874 aged 80 Certificate 1a 382 Marylebone. He Married Margaret Wood 15.11.1819 at St Mary Newington Surrey. I don not have this certificate, which may give his parents names. I agree with your marriage and death details for Margaret Wood and Mary Ann Wells. I don't know about siblings. I really have nothing more definite than this going back. Of course I have information going forward - William's daughter Alice (b. 1832) being my g.g. grandmother. Alice Westall married George Thomas Nicholls in 1852 in Kensington. They emigrated to Australia in 1855 on the "Euphrates". Their daughter Alice Elizabeth Nicholls b.1859 Sydney, married her cousin James Thomas Chester. Going Back is more difficult, as you say. I have found a William Westall bapt. 23.11.1757 in Crowmarsh Gifford. He had brother John b.1748-51 and Richard 1761 and there was a Mary Westall but she could have been either a sister or the wife of one of the brothers. This Mary appears to have had at least 3 children - Elizabeth 1774, John 1776 and William 1779. I believe this William married Francis Lankshear 13.5.1779 in Great Coxwell Berks. They had Jane 1799, Ann 1801, William 1802 who married Mary Atkins b. 1802, Mary 1804, Margaret 1806, James 1808 and John 1814. I got this information from the Reynolds family tree 9349924-2 by Natalie Reynolds. I have no way at the moment of connecting this to my William Westall. The William Westall from Great Coxwell who married mary Atkins was a cordwainer in 1841 census but by 1851 and 61 was a shoemaker as was my William Westall. The only reason I've given allthis information is that Crowmesh Gifford appears. This seems to be the only Oxfordshire Westalls I can find. The tonycairns tree 9551581-2 has some of this information pertaining to Fanny Lankshear (I think that was through genes reunited) Many thanks for your interest .

Hi Bob, I agree - it seems that these certificates might help to resolve the issue. I have 250+ of these pesky things and even the DCerts can be quite enlightening. For example I have one gggg grandfather who, 'was killed by a horse in the performance of his duties..' He was 94 at the time! By the way, there's a picture of William Westall ARA in this article. Anyone spot a family resemblance? http://www.abc.net.au/navigators/naturalists/westall.htm As for my own ancestors, I believe they originated in the Aldbourne area of Wiltshire, with strong links to Ramsbury (and to the group that migrated to south Wales and to the Cadishead area of Lancashire). There seems to be at least one other independent Westall group in Wiltshire at the end of the 17th century which was centred on Trowbridge, and the Bishopstone area near Shrivenham. I have also identified some early Westall's (c.1550's) in the area around Keevil and East Isley and we can hypothesise (quite likely?) that these are all linked through a common ancestry. Does anyone have a link between these different groups? Thanks.

Fred, What an absolutely great idea. All in favor say aye! Really does anyone on the list have any thoughts that may be of some help to Jenny other than William's marriage and death certificates?

Jenny, The good part is that your info is at least out on the internet and into the WESTALL mailing list archives. It may ring a bell for someone. There is also a Roots Web WESTALL message board that you could post some of/or all of what you just did. It took years to get some of the info on some of the trees but the certificate you mention may be money well spent? Someday I will go to Australia and knock on all the Westall front doors and say hi! Someday, maybe?

I have found William in all the Census records you mentioned and know that he died Sept 1874 aged 80 Certificate 1a 382 Marylebone. He Married Margaret Wood 15.11.1819 at St Mary Newington Surrey. I don not have this certificate, which may give his parents names. I agree with your marriage and death details for Margaret Wood and Mary Ann Wells. I don't know about siblings. I really have nothing more definite than this going back. Of course I have information going forward - William's daughter Alice (b. 1832) being my g.g. grandmother. Alice Westall married George Thomas Nicholls in 1852 in Kensington. They emigrated to Australia in 1855 on the "Euphrates". Their daughter Alice Elizabeth Nicholls b.1859 Sydney, married her cousin James Thomas Chester. Going Back is more difficult, as you say. I have found a William Westall bapt. 23.11.1757 in Crowmarsh Gifford. He had brother John b.1748-51 and Richard 1761 and there was a Mary Westall but she could have been either a sister or the wife of one of the brothers. This Mary appears to have had at least 3 children - Elizabeth 1774, John 1776 and William 1779. I believe this William married Francis Lankshear 13.5.1779 in Great Coxwell Berks. They had Jane 1799, Ann 1801, William 1802 who married Mary Atkins b. 1802, Mary 1804, Margaret 1806, James 1808 and John 1814. I got this information from the Reynolds family tree 9349924-2 by Natalie Reynolds. I have no way at the moment of connecting this to my William Westall. The William Westall from Great Coxwell who married mary Atkins was a cordwainer in 1841 census but by 1851 and 61 was a shoemaker as was my William Westall. The only reason I've given allthis information is that Crowmesh Gifford appears. This seems to be the only Oxfordshire Westalls I can find.

I am looking for more information on my ancestor, William Westall, particularly his parents' names. He was born in approximately 1795 in "Cromish, Oxfordshire" (1861 Census) or "Ipstone, Oxfordshire" (1871 Census) I believe that "Cromish" would be present Crowmarsh Gifford and "Ipstone" would be the present day Ipsden in Oxfordshire. This area is quite close to the Berkshire border, so he could be related to the Berkshire Westalls in some way. William Westall was a shoemaker and moved to London where he was living in Marylebone in the 1841, 1851, 1861 and 1871 censuses. He married 1. Margaret ("Margrett") Wood in 1819. She was born in Newcastle-on-Tyne in 1803. They had children Fanny 1821, John 1826, Julia 1828, Alice 1831, Margaret 1838, Mary 1840 and possibly Charles. 2.Mary Ann Wells b 1830, Wantage, Berks M.1864 Daughter Alice Westall married George Thomas Nicholls in 1852 went to Australia in 1855 where they lived in Burwood or Enfield in Sydney.

Bob, Here's some info on Wm Bury Westall re: his writings. WILLIAM BURY WESTALL -William Bury Westall (February 7, 1834 - 1903) was an English novelist born in Old Accrington, Lancashire, England. Originally a businessman, he later became a journalist and also wrote a large number of novels, including The Old Factory, Strange Crimes, Her Ladyship's Secret, of which the Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature from 1910 says "while healthy in tone and interesting, [they] have no literary distinction".

William went to Switzerland as the Swiss correspondent for 'The Times' (Britian's national newspaper published in London since 1788) , later editor of 'The Swiss Times'. He met revolutionaries in Russia and wrote many novels, the first being 'The Old Factory' which is based on his father's mill. So what was the Swiss Times?

As always thank you for all of your help. My daughter started "Our Westall" web site for me last Christmas. Would you mind if I put a link on it to your family tree? I hope to do the same with Mick and Richard and any others that have made the step.

Charles Westall was my GGG Grandfather through my mother Mary Stone, her father William Stone, his mother Mary Ann Westall and her father Henry Westall who was Charles' 2nd son. I hope that this clears things up.

Chris, I have Christopher Wood d Bet. Jul - Sep 1867 Lancaster, Lancashire, Eng. As per Free BMD? I am not sure this helps? William Bury Westall was quite a good author of several novels in the 1880's and 1890's. I have 6 or 8 of his novels printed in that era and they are really very good reading. Thank you Chris for the info on your ancestry. Chris' info is housed in "AAA Lancashire and the World, Westall" my data base. On the board we also have a descendant of the Artists Richard and William Westall ca. 1765 to 1850. Richard the older step brother was the Art teacher to Queen Victoria for several years. Benjamin Westall b 1736 d 1794 was the father of both artists step brothers. This families info is housed in "AAA Norwich & USA, Alexander Westall" Would anyone else care to add some of their ancestor info.

At Bob's request I'm posting my Westall ancestry. My name is Christopher Westall Galbreath (jr) great-grandson of Christopher Westall (b. 3 NOV 1857 Oswaldtwistle, Lancashire - d. 29 NOV 1900 New Smyrna, Volusia Co., FL) He was the son of William Bury Westall (7 FEB 1834 Lancashire - 9 SEP 1903 Heathfield, Sussex) and Ellen Ann Wood (1832 Lancashire - 1861 England). Chris was 22 when he immigrated to America in DEC 1878 . Settling in New Smyrna, Florida where he married in 1880, Emma Jane Lowd (1862 - 1949) and engaged in Citrus farming.. They had two daughters, Ethel Lowd Westall (1883-1973) who married in 1907, Roy Otto Galbreath ( 1884-1959) and Lily Wood Westall (1890 - 1986) who married in 1914, Wilbur Aten Griffin (1891-1965). My knowledge of William Bury Westall's ancestry is largely taken from the work of Roy Westall in his "Life and Times of the Westall Family" . William and Ellen Ann had 3 children, John, Christopher and Ellen. When Ellen Ann died in 1861, he married her sister, Alicia "Alice" Wood (1828 - aft 1901) by whom he had 3 children, Lillian, Lincoln and Ethel. Lincoln (1866 - 1935) immigrated to America in 1905 where he married Swedish immigrant, Augusta Nelson (1860 - 1949). Both died in Long Beach, Los Angeles Co., CA. Both Ellen and Alicia Wood were the daughters of Christopher Wood (1801 Grindleton, Yorkshire - d. bet 1861-1871 Lancashire. Everything indicates these Westall's were of the Lancashire breed with no other connections that I know of. Regards, Chris W.
