I know Hanmer came under Flintshire then Elaine but am assuming perhaps wrongly that its now part of Shropshire.

Thomas born 1798 and Jane abt that!
I can see there is a Thomas Reeves christened in Hanmer in 1798, but if your Thomas married Jane in 1813 then it's quite probable it's not the same one as he would only have been 15/16'ish, presuming of course he was christened at a young age.Elaine

Cheshire Wills have a record for a Thomas Reeves, abode Malpas, occupation butcher dated 1822. It looks as though its an admon rather than a full will but its a possible

I think they are only available at the London Metropolitan Archives here's the link Collections information
I don't think they are digitised so you might have to ask someone to go and look for you unless you can get there yourself.

Thanks Margaret for the link.
The names you have Elaine are Thomas' siblings.........his parents were also called Thomas and Jane (maiden name unknown).
I do have them from the Bivri Film 1655828 dates 1783-1815. This Jane was also born Hanmer.
I suppose the will Jackie turned up may be a possibility, Thomas 1798 & his wife Jane, could have retired/moved to Malpas at some point, after having their family. So will need to look into that.........If it was Thomas' 1798 will.....he would have died a few years after Sarah was born.........she is the only child I have for him and Jane at present. And if her mother died some time later, it may explain her servitude?
It may explain why they are not showing up in the census?
This is great......something to work on/with. Thankyou all.Last edited by Jen~Ealogy; 14-06-09, 12:13.Jen

No I don't know for sure Elaine, its all very patchy at the moment......am just trying to collect all the info I can on him. Originally I only had his name from Sarah's marriage cert.
I really need to check the records at Ellesmere.....Jen

Can anyone help me try and find possible marriages for the following 2 sisters please?;)
I have searched ancestry and FMP but so far turned nothing up, perhaps a few more pairs of eyes may help.
They were the only 2 surviving sisters of 5, and can't beleive that one of them did not marry!
Ellen Brandon born 1892 Manchester
Edith Brandon born 1894 Manchester.
Their parents were Charles Brandon & Ellen Cocklin.........
I am surmising that they may have married between 1920/30.Jen

Thanks Janben, I will check it out. I can't beleive a fourth one died too. They died between the ages of two and 13.......I ought to try and see if they had other children too.
They were the children of my g grandfather's brother.Jen

There are four more children on the 1911 census: Elizabeth (1903), Mary (1905), George (1908) and Dorris (1910). Ellen was living at home with her mother and the other children, aged 19. Charles wasn't there, but it doesn't look as though he died until 1918.
These are the only two Ellen Brandon marriages in Lancashire in the right period:
Marriages Dec 1931
Brandon Ellen / Clark / W.Derby / 8b 1024
Marriages Jun 1932
Brandon Ellen / O'Neil / Leigh / 8c 492
but she may have married later, and FreeBMD doesn't have full coverage yet.

Thankyou very much Mary, more children, that's fantastic, I will try and determine if they are really mine.........maybe need to send for some more certs!!
Will be interesting to see what all the other children died of too........Oh the expense lol!
I really appreciate all the help I have had this past week and would like to thank you all so much.........I have enjoyed my week and you have given me plenty to work with. I hope I can participate in helping others in turn.........although having said that, by the time I have written down details etc, someone else (people who are quicker than me) have answered lol! Still there's nothing like plenty of practice to get you there.Jen
