Re: Samuel Tibbetts born ca. 1898

Thanks you all for your help on this. I'm now convinced that the Samuel that married Laura Milligan was the son of James Tibbetts and Alice Pearson. The information that has been unearthed regarding Bate connections, convinced me that the Samuel that married Bertha was the son of Edward and Elizabet...

Re: Chainmaking and the Willetts/Young?Sitch family

Regarding movement of people, I can trace one of my family lines from Leicestershire to Cheshire and then to Lancashire, and they may have travelled by canal.

Re: Thomas/George/Wm Swingler

A major part of the clan in Bcc are descended from William Swingler (born 1830-1835), who says In the 1881 census that he comes from Leicestershire. m This fits with the earlier census details unearthed by Linell for Thomas which include a William, and it seems likely that William (1830/1835) was th...

Re: 'Onan' Lowe

O.K. :oops: It was the later census entry as 'Owen' that led me astray. Need-less-to-say, I've never come across this forename before, but apparently he is mentioned in the Old Testament.
