Re: Nellie Wiltshire m Harold Howard, Staines England 1908

fredellerby — 2009-09-17 08:16:29Z

Hi Kim. I am afraid that I cannot help with your specific query but I am very interested in the name of the father of Harold. I have in my family tree a Robert Mayne CURTIS who was a farmer near Newbury in Berkshire England in 1881.He was married to a Florence Charlotte BEGBIE. I have also found another Robert Mayne CURTIS b 1824 who was a spice dealer/merchant in London.(possibly father of RM CURTIS junior) I have a feeling that these names must be related somehow. Do you have any more information?

Many thanks

Mark

Hi

My name is Maria Wiltshire and I having been working on my husband's family tree the last year or so. It appears that his ancestors originated from the Kingswood area of Bristol in the 18c and early part of 19c, mainly from Mangotsfield.
Have you any ancestors from that neck of the woods?

His father as shown on their m/cert was Robert Wiltshire.With lots of help from GR members I am in the process of confirming the correct Robert so that I can progress.My father was born in Sparsholt. I wondered if any connections with any members?

I have double checked the 1841 census and the previous info was correct, living in Deal St, and parents were Joseph/Catharine and they were silk weavers, so looks like no connection with your Thomas, thanks for the info

Re: London Wiltshires

jackseagrove100 — 2009-05-17 15:30:27Z

The Thomas Wiltshire I have,I beleived to be living in Deal St,Mile End in 1841/51 census, I think I mixed the dates up?. Parents were Joseph and Catharine Wiltshire and were Silk Weavers,He was born in Whitechapel?

Re: London Wiltshires

jan_tidiman — 2009-05-17 12:39:07Z

Hi TJ, not sure if there is a connection, mine seem to all have been born in London and I have not seen any mention of a Daniel, but I shall keep it in mind. Thanks for the contact.

Re: London Wiltshires

TJTulley — 2009-05-17 12:24:12Z

My G-grandfather was Daniel Wiltshire born about 1825 in Chadwell Heath Essex, married Ann Spooner 8/1/1862 in Dagenham Essex. They brought up their family in Bromley-by-Bow, London (Middlesex).

Any links?

Re: London Wiltshires

jan_tidiman — 2009-05-17 12:13:10Z

I think it is the same person, I have him on the 1841 census living at Rose Court, Bethnal Green. He is my GGG Grandfather. Do you know the names of his parents please. I have various occupations for him, congreave maker, traveller and splint maker on different censuses, although I can't find him after 1861. Can't remember where I got the info re him marrying Maria or Mary Ann Cooper, will have to double check.

Re: London Wiltshires

jackseagrove100 — 2009-05-16 17:38:59Z

Hi, Thomas wiltshire I have was born 8/6/1826 and christened 3/3/1828 at St Leonards, Shoreditch, so I think they are the same as Shoreditch/bethnal green are right next to each other. I have not been able to confirm who he married, unless you have confirmation?

Re: London Wiltshires

jan_tidiman — 2009-05-16 16:38:47Z

Hi Jack, my Thomas Wiltshire was born 1827 app in Bethnal Green so it could well be the same person. He married Maria or Mary Ann Cooper. Is he related to you?

Re: WILTSHIRE from Worcestershire.

jwilty — 2009-05-14 20:24:48Z

Hi. I've just started to research my family tree on my father's side, his name was Joseph Wiltshire and I think we're linking into the same family. My great great grandfather was James Wiltshire born 1815, Kempsey. I'm finding the whole thing fascinating especially how for generations and generations the same names are repeated (y brother is also Joseph Wiltshire). I've also travelled to Kempsey to see if I could fid any graves but no luck. Basically I'm just starting out on this so any info is gratefully received.

Re: Wiltshire family in Bristol, England

greenkuch — 2007-06-06 20:14:59Z

I’m still trying to fill in all the pieces, but I have a James Wiltshire, born c. 1766 in Bristol, father of five children. One of the sons, James (b.c. 1800, Stapleton), is my wife’s ancestor. In the thread of messages that follows, there is also a reference to another son, William (b.c. 1801, Stapleton), which I also have information about. The gr-grandson of James 1766, was George Witltshire (b. 1852, Fishponds) who immigrated to the U.S. in the 1880’s and changed his name to Welcher. Any of the information I have on the Wiltshire’s I’m willing to share. Please contact me at greenkuch@earthlink.net.

WILTSHIRE from Worcestershire.

evalanda — 2006-07-08 16:58:36Z

I am interested in the Wiltshire family from Severn Stoke and Kempsey in Worcestershire.

My husband's 2x Great Grandfather George Green married Ann Wiltshire in 1856. Her parents were William Wiltshire and Eliza Tombs.

If there is any one else researching this family, I would love to compare notes.

Eveline

Re: WILTSHIRE from Worcestershire.

evalanda — 2008-09-26 07:47:40Z

Hi

My Ann was born Powick c 1834-5. We are not sure of the date, we have not found a baptism as yet, we only have it from all the censuses. However the 1841 says Kempsey registration district Upton on Severn. It does look as though her siblings were born Kempsey. Her father William was born Powick in 1810. However, his father Joseph was born Severn Stoke, so we are descended from the Severn Stoke Wiltshires.

I have five Ann(e)'s in the family tree, including the 1828 Ann who was daughter of Charles Wiltshire and Sarah Yates. I don't have the Ann born 1847.

I have done a lot of research on the family, but it does get a bit muddled over which Joseph was who in 1777 and 1780. I think I have it right because someone else had the same answer. If you would like to e.mail me direct on aclarke22@toucansurf.com perhaps we can swap notes to see if we agree OR disagree. I do so like to get everything right and if you differ, perhaps we can find out why.

Wiltshires of Mississippi - research group?

BarbaraMunson60 — 2009-04-08 02:39:13Z

I used to be on an email list with several people who were from the same branch of Wiltshires in Mississippi, but when my computer crashed I lost all their contact information. I'm posting this in hopes one of them sees this and contacts me.

My branch of the Wiltshire family is this one:

Daniel Wiltshire who married AA Wiltshire - they're in Carroll County, MS in the 1870 census. By 1880 she was a widow. I'm related through their daughter Alice (who married William Scott, then Louis Richard).

Daniel apparently was married before AA, I think to a Rebecca Tillman.

I show Daniel's children as Theadore, Luciano, Theopolis, Oscar F., Alice, and Walter.

I'm trying to find any information on the family, and I'm trying to find them prior to the 1870 census.

Thanks for any help.

Does anyone

Wiltshires from Winterbourne/Bristol

ksimpson74 — 2007-10-27 03:47:23Z

I have access to an old marriage document of an ancestor William Wiltshire marrying a Martha Dando on 17 May 1814 in Winterbourne, Gloucestershire. They may have had a son called George who married a Maryann Luton and a daughter Eliza who married George Humphrey Bryant in Bristol in 1840.
Do any of these names mean anything to anyone?

Cheers

Re: Wiltshire family of East Challow, Berkshire, UK

emlivermore — 2009-03-10 07:57:36Z

Hi,
Thank you very much, this has been extremely helpful. My 2 x great grandmother was Lydia Wiltshire and my 2 x great grandfather was William Eltham. I have been intrigued as to why their marriage date was included in a letter from the vicar back in 1879. This was also told to me by someone else researching the Wiltshires a few years ago, but he had the surname recorded as Eltreen, probably gone through a series of transcriptions.
Regards
Liz Livermore (nee Eltham)

My mother was born Mary Ann Wiltshire and although she was b in Edinburgh 22 Feb 1918 that was only because her dad James Wiltshire found work there when work in Portsmouth dockyard dried up, His family had been in Portsmouth for generations.

Stanley Alfred Wiltshire born 13 Oct 1893 as Frederick Alfred Stanley Wiltshire.

Some time between 1893 and the 1911 Census he became known as Stanley, non one knows why.
His Mother was Margaret Jane Wiltshire, Father not known and not on Birth Cert.
In 1920 he married Minnie Elizabeth Maud Law. They had one child, Alfred Edmund Wiltshire (1920-1990).
