Hi Gins,

Thanks

Mary Robinson sister of Richard Yore.

My Mary was an Ellwood and she married Matthew Robinson in 1841 Bolton.

Theres also a few possible deaths for Mary between 1841-1851


Did they have any children?

Vera Report 22 Jul 2012 11:17

The 1851 I found with a Joseph and Mary Robinson...is not correct...... I think she was a Lewthwaite before she married....back to the drawing board.

Hi All,

I don't know of any children Mary & Matthew may have had.

sorry

Gillian

Gee Report 22 Jul 2012 12:27

Im not seeing any children with the parents Matthew and Mary for the time period and place

I think its a case of sending for death certificates from 1841 to 1851 but there are several possibles :-S

Hi Gins,

Yes not easy to pinpoint the correct people!!!

Thanks for your help.

Hi Gigi. You may have answered your own question as it easy to presume the wrong information which I have done. Mary Ellwood married Matthew Robinson in Westmoreland which includes the ? village of Bolton.Not as I presumed from your post Bolton in Lancashire.

Whilst I have found a Mary Ellwood baptised in Bolton the year doesn't tally but could have been a late baptism. Mary Ellwood baptised Bolton 14th Oct 1818 daughter of Thomas Ellwood and Jane- jl

A further search shows on her marriage that the place of birth is Bongate according to familysearch, the same area as shown on the census which Gins provided, although incorrect.- jl

Hi Janet,

Yes there is a Bolton in Westmorland. I should have made that more clear.

So if I understand correctly, Mary who married Matthew Robinson was born Bongate and the daughter of Thomas & Jane or not the daughter of Thomas & Jane?

I am rather hoping she is the daughter of William Ellwood & Ann Simpson married 1794 St Michael's. Mary the daughter was born 1813 Bongate.

Thanks,

Gillian
