Arc....Taylor/Billingham heir hunting-

Postby Frodo » Fri Mar 20, 2020 4:48 pm

I have received a letter from an heir hunting company and although there doesn't seem to be any connection to myself I thought I would ask if anyone else has information or connections as I can't find either name.

The people they are looking for are a William Taylor born c1886 who married an Anne Billingham in Sheffield in 1910 who have possibly three children- William, Ethel and ?. They seem to think my father Arthur Bernard Taylor is the third child but this isn't correct. I know some of Jacob Billingham's relatives so who knows?moved to the Sheffield area

The names seem to match but the marriage isn't in Sheffield. My sister has just returned from a holiday and has also received the letter so they must have connected our family line somehow even though I don't know of a William in the family.

I have not been able to develop an extended family tree on the Taylor side as there is uncertainty about my great great grandfather's date of birth ( the Family Bible shows 1782 but nearly everyone on Ancestry has used 1786 so he may have siblings I don't know about who have a William as a relative. The family was based round Stoke Prior so in roughly the right direction for Stourbridge.

I can't see a marriage at Sheffield that would fit :?

But this could be William

John Hatton marries Sarah Skidmore
https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... i=53628442
his father is a John Hatton.

Sarah Hatton nee Skidmore is aunt of a William Taylor b 1886
https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =755434333
and on 1901 he is living with her
is she a great Aunt? as she is born 1832.

Sarahs husband b est 1832 has father John.

William taylors mother is a Hatton.....I think an Eliza Hatton here.she is b 1860 ish
https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =755434333
but her father is a Thomas Hatton not a John.....so again is Sarah a gt aunt.


:shock:
