Monumental Inscriptions

[bristolloggerheads]

I have details of Broseley Baptist Chapel, St. Bartholomews, Benthall, St. Marys, Jackfield and St. Calixtus, Astley Abbots if I can be of help to anyone.

My ancestors lived in Astley Abbotts. Have you any MI for SHERWOOD?

[bristolloggerheads]

No Sherwood gravestones were recorded in the 1984 list I have. Even then there were a lot of illegible stones.

Peter - have just discovered you 2006 offer regarding MI's for Broseley Baptist Chapel - but am not sure if this is for the old Chapel or the Birchmeadow Chapel.

Anyway if and when you have time could you possibly check and see if there are any burials for the surname of JONES.

Many thanks

William Jones born in Broseley 11th February 1818 died 1st October 1883; Maria (Palin) Jones born 28th February 1823 died 27th May 1899; also unnamed children who died in infancy.

Grave in Lower Burial Area of Broseley Baptist Chapel.

At least 18 Jones's at Benthall - both churches are very close to each other. By the way the Broseley Baptist Chapel is the old one of 1741 and not Birchmeadow.

Peter,

Is it possible for you to check the Broseley B.Chapel MIs for the name EVANS ?
Also, do you know if any of the registers for Broseley and Birchmeadow have been transcribed anywhere?
Thankyou, Bjelkier

[cmce]

Many thanks Peter - the ones I am after are a bit earlier than that one but of course they may not have MI's so will have to see if I can access the actual Burial registers.

If it is not too much trouble could you list the Jones in Benthall that you mentioned - so close to Broseley they could be connections.

Bjelkier you will find transcriptions from 1570 - 1750 for Broseley St Leonards on the fascinating website for the town at: broseley.org.uk/index.html (put www. in front)
under the History section.

Not that it helps if you are after Burials but Birchmeadow Births 1794-1835 and Broseley Baps - 1570 - 1830 and Marriages 1751-1840 are covered on the IGI.

I have details of Broseley Baptist Chapel, St. Bartholomews, Benthall, St. Marys, Jackfield and St. Calixtus, Astley Abbots if I can be of help to anyone.

I'm looking the burial of my great grandfather, JAMES MALSON, who died in the Dec qtr. of 1903. Thought to be at Astley Abbotts at the time of his death so, perhaps, St. Calixthus is a good bet.

Can you help?

Regards,

David Hankey

[Mr Gwynne Chadwick]

Hi David,

Although a headstone for James MALSON was recorded when the monumental inscriptions were compiled in 1984, I couldn't find it yesterday at the location indicated on the plan.
However, just finding the headstone wouldn't confirm he was 'your' James.
Allegedly the inscription only stated "In Loving Memory of James MALSON" [top of monument missing]

[Mr Gwynne Chadwick]

David,

I've found a full detailed report of the Inquest on James MALSON, age 51.

Also two full detailed Court cases relating to the death.

I'll post copies as soon as possible.

Gwynne.

[David Hankey]

Hi, Gwynne,

Many thanks for all your help and assistance. I have replied to you on 'Rootschat' with regard to my personal email address and postal address.

Best regards,

David

Hi there Bristol L H.
I'm researching the Cochranes (aka Cochran) who were closely related to Alexander Brodie, owner of the Calcutts works at the end of the 18th century.
I know Thomas Cochrane was buried at the Red church in Jackfield in 1833 and that his wife Lillias had died in Linley in 1825/26 ad their son Robert in Linley in 1827.

Would you be so kind as to let me know if you have MI's for them and indeed for other Cochrane's/Brodies in Jackfield/Linley/Broseley between the 1790's and 1840's or later.

Look forward to hearing from you.

[bristolloggerheads]

Nothing at Broseley Baptist, Jackfield or Benthall.

Ok that's disappointing but many thanks for looking.
