Are you still looking for information on William Michael Locke Mesney? He was born c. 1831 in Weymouth, Dorset, England, was christened 19 August 1832 in St. Mary's, Littlehampton, Sussex, England and died 22 March 1884 in Bootle, West Derby, Lancashire, England. He married Margaret S. Stephens and had a daughter Mary Locke Stephens Mesney.

From the Index to the Captains Registers of Lloyd's of London (Guildhall Library MS 18567):

MESNEY, William Michael L. b. Weymouth 1830 C64485 Cork 1858 vol.10 1858-1870, 1873; vol.22 no voyages listed

I'm not sure if this is the same family as we spell it mesny. William Mesny originated in the channel islands and went to shanghai. He became a general in the imperial army of china. Check out these two websites http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Mesny and my family website which is done by my dad, note it may be under construction www.ontariopioneers.com

An update to my earlier enquiry in 2002. William Michael Locke Mesney (1832 - 1884) was the husband of Margaret Stephens. Does anyone have any information on him? Thanks.

Anyone know of a Mesney/Stephens marriage perhaps about 1855/1860? The Mesney was said to be a Channel Island sea captain who was killed in an affray in a Chinese harbour. Margaret Stephens died on 2 July 1901 in New York.

Are you still researching your family tree as I realise your message was posted way back in Jan 2003? You and my husband Richard are cousins as your father Claude was brother to Violet May, my husbands Mum. I have been doing a lot of extensive research and have found lots of information on the Mesneys going way back to the end of the 18th century. Fascinating family!!! I saw your messages to and from Marion Walsh who,I know is another cousin, and is(was) daughter of Stella, sister to Violet & Claude.Violet was a good deal older than your Dad as she was born in 1908.Sadly, she died at the young age of 44 in 1953 when my husband was 14 years old.
Would be good to hear from you!

Are you still looking for relatives of William Mesney and Rosa Lily King? I am currently researching the Mesney family tree on behalf of my husband Richard whose mother was Violet May Mesney, born 1908,died in March 1953. She was one of William and Rosa's daughters and so they were my husbands grandparents.
I appreciate that you posted your message a long time ago but we would be really pleased if you wanted to get in touch.

Hi,

Well we are related!

Claude would be my mum's brother. So, we are cousins.

My mum is the last surviving sibling in that family - she was the youngest child. My mum will be 78 this summer.

I'd love to chat further. Please email again.

Hi Alice,

I thought Fedrick Mesney worked initially in a rubber estate in Thailand and latter moved to Malaysia, but I understand that his son, William Mesney (My Grandfather) worked in Penang for the Government.

I to am interested in my heritage, let me know if we are talking about the same person.

Regards,

Hello Again Alice, I spotted your message whilst I was hunting for Mesney informtion too! I didn't know you had a photograph - I wonder if you could scan it and email to me sometime? I'm afraid I have not had much time to spend researching the family tree, and have not uncovered much. When I find out more I'll be sure to get in touch.
James.
