Hi Marcus,
Just received your message, I don't know too much about Jean only her pedigree, youngest of five children, parents were William C Asplen born 1871 and Augusta Harrington, Williams parents are Joseph Asplen born 1840 in Girton, Cambridge and Sarah Bowles, Joseph's parents Joseph Asplen born 1811 also in Girton, Cambridge and Jane Blackley, they had two other sons Johnathon (b18290 and William (b1832), Johnathon was sent to Australia as a convict and died in Freemantle in 1864. Anyway Joseph's parents were John Asplin (b1779 Haddenham, Cambs) and Susan Levitt (Levett).
My line of family come also from this couple through their 5th child Robert, Joseph was the 7th child. I can trace back to a Richard Asplamd who died about 1654 in Haddenham.

I hope that's a start, theres a lot of info, I don't know anything about Jean, husband and any children, so sorry.

Let me know how you get on.

regards

Michael Asplen.

I am starting some research on the family of Jean Asplen b 1910, married Thomas Donachie, so wonder if you have traced back the family much and if there might be a possiblilty of getting some of the more recent connections

Hi Michael,
My Grandmother's maiden name was Eliza Asplen. Her parents my Great Grandfather & Mother lived at Ware near Huntingdon.
I'm not sure what their names were but I went to their cottage when I was about 4-5 years old, I am now 60 years of age, so it was a long time ago.If I find any more info I will get back to you.
Regards
Barry

Hi Ivy,

I am descended from a Joshua Asplin m Mary Marshall 1770 in Rampton,
Cambridgeshire. They had at least 5 children baptised in Rampton, according to LDS, between 1774 and 1782.

Is this by any chance your Joshua Asplin? Do you have info on the Rampton
Asplins that you would be willing to share?

Thanks
Alex

Hello Stephen
I am replying on behalf of Toni Smith - she is having problems logging on to Ancestry. She has asked me to write this to you in reply to your email received yesterday.

"My Asplin family that lived in Eye, were from March, so I feel we must be related. My mother was Phylis Nellie Asplin born in Eye to John Thomas Asplin.I have loads of info about the family so would be delighted to hear from you."
Please reply to her email address - tonismith.mbe@ntlworld.com

dfklein — 2009-09-06 19:56:57Z

Joan,
Sorry for the really late response! Which census did you find Peter and Frances in? Do you have any documentation that Peter's son John married Lydia Barker? If that is correct, then Toni Smith's (see other postings) ancestor John Asplin who married Lydia Barker in 1832 would be Peter's son, yet I think she lists John's father as also named John.

Thanks for any info you have.

Hi,

I am retired_donna's niece. I know there are several of us on here working the Asplin family tree at present. I am one of them. We are from Riona Asplin's daughter Eva Asplin. I know I have your family in my tree. The Asplin family is pretty big. I have been researching Isacc Asplin's Grandfather Peter's children through the England census. There are quite a few that stayed. If I can help, I will. Isaac Asplin had Issac Newton Asplin who had Maude Asplin who had Edward Jennings. I don't have who he married or his children. Maybe we can exchange info. joanwicker@yahoo.com

HI I AM SHIRELLE RUTH ASPLIN, FROM WESTERN AUSTRALIA. I HAD NO IDEA THERE ARE SO MANY ASPLINS OUT THERE. NOT A COMMON NAME IN W.A. ARE WE FROM THE SAME LINE OF ASPLINS?

Re: Asplin Family from UK

Hi Michael
My mother was an ASPLIN - born in Eye, Peterborough, Northants, and her paternal family came from March in Cambridgeshire, Upwell and around Wisbech.
The furthest back is John Asplin born 1790 in Norfolk. I know he died in Christchurch Norfolk / Cambs in 1822.
I am trying to look into another ASPLIN family though - Henrietta Jane ASPLIN born 1836 in Houghton, Hunts, who married 1 March 1863 to John Henry AYRE.
Strange that this Henrietta married into my father's side of the family and so I know that her parents were James ASPLIN and Jane
Any help would be great.
I have lots of info on my mother's Asplins if you are interested

Hello Maria, my name is James ASPLIN and I am related to the Robert ASPLIN you are trying to contact in Canada. I have to inform you that Robert passed away on the 15 March 2006. My wife Elizabeth and I have a very extensive ASPLIN Family Tree. Can we help in any way? We may be able to exchange information on the ASPLIN family.

Peter Asplin/Mary Brown (marr. between 1810-1840?)

Shelby_Lambert — 2006-01-07 20:12:41Z

I would like to find out when and where this couple got married, because it has a lot of bearing whether he was married before, as I believe him to be. Both Peter and Mary came from the area of Cambridgeshire, Eng around Wimblington/Doddington/March, Peter was born in 1776, Mary in 1786. I found a Peter Asplin, born the same year and the same place who was married to a Frances Young in 1801 and had four children with her, but nothing is known about her death or divorce to Peter. If he got married to Mary Brown, it would have to be after 1810, when his and Frances' last child, Eleanor, was born. If Peter and Mary did get married in England, then that would solve the question of whether they came to the United States together like I think they did, because i don't know when he arrived otherwise. But from what others have told me, they more than likely got married in the US, but I would like to have a date and a place on when that took place. My e-mail address is stlambert1@yahoo.com if you would like to get in touch. Thank you.

Toni, Do you know anything more about the father of your John Asplin born 1801 at March Cambs and died 15 June 1883? According to some information you had previously sent me his name was also John. Could he have had a brother named Peter Asplin born about 1776 who married Frances Young around 1801?

Thomas Haynes (age 30), Ellen Haynes (age 27), Isaac "Haynes" (age 5), and Joseph Haynes (age 3) arrived in New York on August 12, 1836 aboard the ship Brig Finley (departure from Liverpool) according to "New York, 1820-1850 Passenger and Immigration Lists" database on Ancestry.com. I'm assuming that this is our family and that whoever took the information down just assumed that Isaac's last name was Haynes because of his family.

I know I'm not related to "your" Asplin family, but I would be interested to know where in England your Isaac Asplin was born, as a frame of reference so our's don't get mixed up. I "think" my Isaac Asplin was born in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire in 1830. Now I saw another Isaac Asplin born in 1825 in Stretham, Cambridgeshire--but I think he stayed and died in England. Didn't really think there would be that many people named Isaac Asplin, but apparantely in England there was.

Elizabeth, Ann, and John Asplin (children of Peter and Frances from Doddington, Cambs.)

Shelby_Lambert — 2005-03-05 20:16:32Z

Would like to know if anyone is descended from these children: Ann (born 1804), John (born 1802-1803), and Elizabeth (born 1806), all from the March/Wimblington/ Doddington area of Cambridgeshire, England. If anyone who is related could tell me a little about each one of them, who they married, etc. Any help is appreciated

Asplin/Asplen, Huntingdonshire etc.
