ONGOING INVESTIGATION
This page will document the on-going work that I need to do to continue tracing my family tree.
HARRY BURROWS and ELIZABETH NEIL (NEAL)
I currently have research being done in Notthingham/Leicester to trace Harry and Elizabeth. Chances are that Elizabeth Neal was illigitimate (to Sarah neal and Joseph Barrows), and Elizabeths first child (William Henry) was also illigitimate.
JOSEPH GRIGG
Joseph Grigg died either between 1883 - 1886 in Australia, or post 1885/6 in New Zealand. Angelina was married in Brunnerton with her sister as bridesmaid. It may be worthwhile searching to see if he died there.
I have a lead that he may have died in 1909.
Birth certificate 25 February 1843. Have found the baptism, but no births in 1843.
Have received two incorrect Birth Certificates for him. One from 19/7/1847, but the father is John Grigg. One from 31/5/1841, but the father is Jacob.
EDWARD TUCKER
Birth Certificate for 1790, England.
JANE KITTOW
Birth certificate for c. 1793 in St Andrews, Calstock, Cornwall, England.
JOHN PHILLIPS
Birth certificate. Nothing available in Cornwall.
Death certificate for pre 1840 as his widow went to New Zealand in 1840.
ANN COCK
Birth certificate c. 1805 England. Nothing available from Cornwall.
Death certificate in New Zealand.
JOSEPH SPARKES and ELIZABETH MOSS
Have no information on them, other than an association in Oxford.
LAWRENCE FRANKLIN
Birth certificate 2 April 1819 in Milton under Wychwood, Oxford, England.
HANNAH SPARKES
Birth certificate 13 June 1824 in Ascott Under Wychwood, Oxford, England.
WILLIAM KITTOW
Birth certificate 1759 in Cornwall.
Marriage certificate to Temperance Cornelius 6 Marcy 1785 in Kelly, Devon, England.
TEMPERANCE CORNELIUS
Birth Certificate 1765 in Calstock, Cornwall, England.
DANIEL JACKSON
Birth certificate c. 1815
SARAH COOMBES
Birth certificate c. 1820
1841 Census:
A Daniel Jackson is a 20 year old in Shipton under Wychwood?
Lower Milton. Daniel Jackson, Head, 36 years old, Agricultural Labourer. Sarah Jackson, Wife, 31 years old. William Jackson, son, 8 years old, 'scholar'. 'H' (Harriett?), daughter, 6 years old. Harriet Coombs, Daughter in Law (?) 13 years old. Where is Harriet from?
Lower Milton, Callage. Daniel Jackson, Head, Widow, 44. Agricultural Labourer. Born in Oxfordshire, Ascatt. William Jackson, son, 18, Agricultural Labourer, born in Oxfordshire, Milton.
Therefore, Sarah Jackson died between 1851 and 1861? Not sure what happened to 'H' or Harriett (assume they are married?)
There are two Sarah Jackson's who died in this area during this time:
1. INCORRECT; Chipping Norton 3a 410 Q3 1859 (Ordered). The death certificate for Sarah Jackson was 10 August 1859, 40 years old when she died, wife of William Jackson, the death was informed by Lucky Jackson, both werefrom Shipton (Chipping Norton).
2. INCORRECT; Milton 2a 397 Q2 1860. (Ordered) This is incorrect as she was 3 years old when she died.
3. INCORRECT; I appear to have found another one.. Q1 1851 Chipping Norton, volume 16, page 45. Have ordered this one! Although it does not appear on ancestry.com, I found it on FreeBMD.
Daniel now appears to be living by himself, and if 55 years of age, with 'labourer' as his occupation.
Daniel now appears to be in the district of Chipping Norton as a Pauper inmate. He is 66 years of age, and says that he was born in Ascott Under Wychwood.
There is no Daniel Jackson in the 1891 census. Therefore we must assume that he died between 1881 and 1891.
There are two Daniels who died during this period:
1. 1889 Chipping Norton, aged 72, 31 652, Q1
2. 1891 Chipping Norton, aged 76, 3a 529, Q4. This record would appear to be correct given the age. (Ordered and received).
William Jackson (father of Daniel Jackson) (snr).. there is a death record for William Jackson, dying in 1841 in Chipping Norton, Q4. Another died Q1 1855, another in 1868 Q3 (born c 1808).
Robert Coombes (father of Sarah Coombes).. there is a death record for a Robert Coombes dying in Chipping Norton, Q3 1855, Q1 1895 (born c. 1820). There is one Robert Combs dying in Q1 1851.
