I need some serious help. I am trying to track down documents which prove [or disprove, either way] Margery Bellingham was the wife of Richard Jarrett. Richard's children were Charles and Elizabeth, who married William Gray. I know his wife was Margery, but has anyone PROVEN she's Bellingham? The name appears commonly on the internet but when I try to find where it came from, I'm endlessly referred to somebody else's gedcom, some of which are now offline. I think I've seen about every gedcom and descendency report that is currently viewable on the internet. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Ann BELLINGHAM and Augustus Louis ROBERTS, early 1900s

wendyh651 — 2009-03-16 23:45:52Z

Ann BELLINGHAM and Augustus Louis ROBERTS had a child George Bellingham ROBERTS in 1909. Were they married? I assume so, but have no evidence at this stage and have no knowledge of where it may have happened.

I do not know anything more about Ann.

Augustus Louis was my great-great-grandfather, who already had three children to his former wife, Catherine CATSON. Catherine and her children emigrated to New Zealand in the early 1900s. Augustus was in the Royal Navy. I am descended from their daughter Louisa Margaret Julia who was born in Malta in 1891.

I know of Ann and her son George from a newspaper clipping (paper unknown) held by the New Zealand-based first family of AL Roberts. The clipping talks of George Bellingham Roberts visiting his half-brother George Roberts in New Zealand, and his pending marriage to Isabella Marie FINLAYSON (which ended in divorce in 1937). With the information in the newspaper clipping I was able to track down the marriage record of George B. and Isabella.

I would love to hear from anyone who is connected to any of these names.

Kind Regards,
Wendy Howard

driscoll41 — 2008-10-20 15:04:11Z

Hi,
Saw your message re Bellingham's Family Bible and wonder if you could please check a Steven Bellingham b. abt. 1735. He married Hannah about 1760 and they had three daughters, Hannah, Elizabeth and Sarah. Sarah was my Great(x4)Grandmother and she married Robert Steer in 1793. The family as far as I have found them come from Chiddingstone, Kent which is quite close to Tunbridge Wells. Any mention of them in your Bible. I would be so grateful to hear from you.

I am trying to find my family in Canada, Quebec. My Grandfather was Neill Washington Bellingham, born in Aus Sable Chasm, New York, and so was his sister Grace.
But the rest of the family came from Canada. I think my Great Grandfather was William Bellingham and his wife was Sadie Grace Gillies Do you have anything that might help me. Thank you Sue Price- Ocker

Re: Bellingham Ancestry

SusanOcker99 — 2008-01-10 04:55:49Z

I don't know if anyone else has followed the Bellingham family to Ireland and Canada. I was researching the Irish Pedigrees in the book by O'Hart and found the family in Ireland at Castle Bellingham in County Louth. It is a nice country home on the County of Louth in Ireland, I am the Greatgrand daughter of William Bellingham and Sarah Gillies. from Canada if anyone has any information on them I would be greatly in your debt. I do know that two of the children were born in New York, My grandfather Neil Washington and his sister Grace. The information is very sketchy since my Grandfather left for the US to Montana to work as a cowboy at 14 yrs of age.

Re: Bellingham Ancestry

merrick77 — 2007-11-28 01:27:47Z

Hi Rebecca
The Bellingham's are still a mystery to the many researchers here in England [well our branch of Bellingham's anyway].
Richard Bellingham who married Mary Sawyer [parents of William, g.parents of Aaron, etc]
As yet no one has been able to find out anything about Richard other than he married Mary Sawyer and so on. But nothing about who his parent's and or sibling's were or where he came from / was born etc.
Some cousins have just made a breakthrough with Mary Sawyer, but this is on going as I wright.
You say you are linked via Aaron then William then Richard and Mary. Well my link to Richard and Mary is via their son also called Richard and his son another Richard and so on.
Yes I would be very interested in contact with any one who may be able to help with info of any kind on the Bellingham's inparticular but also the Sawyer's or Gorringe's and any other names that connect to the family.

Regards Merrick

Re: Bellingham Ancestry

seeking_lanes — 2007-11-27 22:56:03Z

Hi Merrick,

Im descended from Richard and Mary through their son William who married Sarah Barrett, then Aaron Bellingham and Phoebe Gorringe. I might be able to put you in touch with a wonderful researcher of this family, feel free to email me at vkleather@bigpond.com

Hope to hear from you,

Joseph McCord was my GGGGrandfather. His wife was Mary Palmer - both of Killygullib townland in the Parish of Tamlaght O'Crilly. They had chn Joseph, Mary, and Sarah (maybe others?).
Mary Palmer was daughter of Thomas Palmer of Killygullib, farmer.Thomas had another daughter Catherine. Thomas Palmer's wife was Jane Faulkner.
Josph McCord Snr had father Samuel and mother Nancy Ferguson. He had (at least) one brother Archibald. There are other McCord records in the area, but not conclusive relationships(so far).

Hello Bonnie
You are my 3c1r according to my genealogy program.
You may have heard of me through Paul Kench. I am interested in tracing as many of the family brances as possible. To that end my question is.
Do you have any info on Richard Bellingham 1711-1799 and his wife Mary Sawyer 1700-1795. Or any other relative.
Regards Merrick

Re: Bellingham Info

merrick77 — 2007-05-03 23:19:19Z

I was not aware of exact dates but had learned that Richard and Mary were buried in the church at Shipbourne and last year I went to see if I could find them.
Well Shipbourne is a lovely little village and the church is small as is the graveyard. There were several dozen very old and unreadable stones that may have been Bellinghams, but the only one I could make out was a Mary Bellingham near the church door under a tree. She was not Mary Sawyer as the dates or part dates were in the 1800's but could have been a daugter or wife of one of the son's. I will have to try and get back there one day and investigate some more.
My line is through Richard brother of William and son of Richard Bellingham and Mary Sawyer.

Merrick

Re: Bellingham Info

merrick77 — 2007-04-25 03:35:16Z

Hello Bonnie
You may have heard of me via Barry Kench. I am also very interested in the Bellinghams, and through several searches I have been in touch with several different branches of Bellinghams and had a lot of help along the way.
I have thus far with help got back to Richard Bellingham 1711-1799 who married Mary Sawyer. But try as we may no one it seems can get back to Richards parents or siblings.
It was suggested that his name was wrong in Northumberland!

I am not shocked by that idea as I believe that all the Bellingham clans (of the UK at least) are connected. I have no proof of this it is just a gut feeling.

My line is from Richard 1711 down through 4 other Richards a George a Lionel a Lionel Herbert and to my maturnal grandmother Ethel Elsie Bellingham b.1902 Woolwich Kent now London/Greenwich.
Do you know of Richard 1711?....Or his parents/siblings etc.
Regards Merrick

Re: Another piece to the Puzzle Maybe?

merrick77 — 2007-04-16 02:28:07Z

Hi,
Richard Bellingham 1711- and Mary Sawyer are my 9th? g grandparents. I have Mary as born 1700, but then dates can always be wrong. Yes I learned of the Kings bench marriage too. Do you know anything of Richard, his siblings parents etc. I have a hunch that all the Bellingham branches are connected but I can't get back past Richard or find anything else about him or his family.

Merrick

Hello
I to am very interested in the Bellinghams.
My grandmother was born a Bellingham and through several lines of enquiry and your website I have got back to Richard Bellingham 1711-1799 died and burried in Shipbourne Kent England.
My question is do you have any more info on him/ his parents and siblings please.

Regards

Re: Bellingham Info

merrick77 — 2006-06-14 01:50:32Z

Re: Bellingham Info

merrick77 — 2006-06-14 01:41:57Z

Hello
I was browsing the boards and came across your name and looked at the message.
Are you the daughter of Joan M Bellingham & Jack Peakman ? if so we are related.
My earlest Bellingham ancester is Richard Bellingham 1711-1799. But I and many others have been unable to find out any more about his family/ siblings and parents etc. Any thing you can tell me would be of great help to me and the other Bellingham searchers.

Re: Another piece to the Puzzle Maybe?

TGeoffrey — 2006-02-19 12:26:50Z

I am researching the history of the Bellingham family from the Sevenoaks area of Kent and in particular the descendants of Richard Bellingham (d Shipbourne, Kent, 28.5.1799) m King's Bench Prison, Southwark, Surrey, 7.5. 1734 to Mary Sawyer (b Shipbourne, c.1710, d Sittingbourne, Kent, bd Shipbourne, 17.8.1795. Some of them settled in the USA, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia.

Richard Bellingham of Ma. in 1641

BasketLady420 — 2005-08-09 22:14:17Z

In 1641, the first recorded case of bestiality in New England took place. William Hackett “was found in buggery with a cow, upon the Lord’s day.” Ironically he was caught in the act by a woman who missed church that day. Approximately 18 years old, Hackett appeared before the town magistrates. He confessed to attempting the crime, but argued that he could not complete the act due to interruption. Even with lack of witnesses (two being standard), Hackett’s own testimony could not save him. The magistrates were united on the guilty verdict, but divided on the punishment. The majority of the magistrates voted in favor of execution. However, the colonial governor of Massachusetts Bay, Richard Bellingham, refused to endorse the sentence. There are no records on the grounds on which he refused or his reasoning. The deputy governor, John Endecott, differed in opinion from the governor. Endecott endorsed the death sentence. In a final act of spite or perhaps remorse upon hearing his sentence, Hackett confessed to his crime and stated that not only had he complete “this foul fact,” but had attempted “the like before, with other wickedness.” Before Hackett was executed, the cow was slaughtered in front of him and the gallows. Hackett was then hanged.

I am not related to these people, just passing on this information, which comes from an essay titled "Wickedness Breaks Forth." The link for the site is listed below.

Re: Falkirk Bellinghams

Bertha bellinghams father i believe to be Charles her mother Emma Couville other children had were Agnus, Albert, Arthur, Rubin, George, Fred, Frank. This is all i know About the Bellinghams maybe this will send you down another path to look into. I do know that my family married into a shipping company i do not know whether this is the bellinghams or the mckenzie side just trying to go by what i have heard on this though.

Re: Falkirk Bellinghams

2005-06-23 18:30:59Z

Thanks Steven,

I don't have record of a Bertha Bellingham in my research, but I am in contact with another McKenzie on a list for genealogy in the Bann Valley of N. Ireland. We share a Bellingham as a common ancestor and he has Bellinghams that went to Glasgow/Falkirk area in the late 1800s. Noticing that you both share a surname I thought that there might be a connection, so I sent him a link to this message thread. Hopefully there's a link between you two and me as well.

Matt

Falkirk Bellinghams

MatthewBellingham — 2005-06-10 22:18:57Z

Hello Bellinghams,

I posted long, long ago here and somehow never made it back until now.

I believe I contacted some of you regarding Bellinghams of Falkirk. I am actively researching family info in the area once again. Specifically I am trying to find burial locations for Dawson Bellingham. I have had no luck so far. If anyone has any leads on this topic I would enjoy hearing from you. Someone in Falkirk kindly searched the records in Camelon and is getting back to me on the Parish of Falkirk. I know that a few relatives were married at the Church of Scotland in Camelon and figured it might be a good bet they would be buried there, but like I said, no luck.

In addition, I am trying to find passenger list information on my Bellinghams from Ireland to Scotland in 1830s-40s and as well info on Scotland > Boston, Ma. in or around 1907.

Thank you very much and I sincerely hope this finds all Bellinghams healthy and happy!

BURNELL

annellen — 2005-04-10 17:47:58Z

In today's Chicago Tribune was an obit for Max H. Burnell, SR
who coached in the Chicago area and other places his whole life. Age 90 at death.
His son said, "born in Duluth, MN Mr. Burnell lost his father and his mother when he was about 12 (would be about 1926) and the family was living in Bellingham, WA". His son said he has never been able to find out how is paternal grandparents died.
Not related to this man but a genealogist, this caught my eye and I ask that anyone who can help resolve this problem for the family contact me and I will get the information to them here in Evanston, IL (just north of Chicago).
Go to www.chicagotribune.com and click on Obits for today's obituary which is quite lengthy.

Hi Laurel,
I will reply to you (at dallaslaure60200@yahoo.com ) in detail from my new email address - boydgray26@utvinternet.com. This response is just to make sure we do not miss each other. We are second cousins - my grandmother Margaret Ann Bellingham (1882 - 1957) was Tillie Bellingham's sister (Tillie was born in 1880). I have lots and lots of information on the Bellinghams. Your Great Great Great Grandfather was a Thomas Bellingham born circa 1760 in Culmore, near Kilrea. I also have access to a whole network of other Bellinghams descendants who are researching the same family. Some are better genealogists than me but none is more closely related to you than I am. This is an exciting discovery. I cannot wait to find out what happened to that branch of the family which disappeared to America at some point.
