Jutsum Family

[KrysEmery]

Hi!

I am researching my Grandmother's (Joyce Jutsum) family which came from South Molton in Devon. Her father was Arthur Jutsum, son of Richard Jutsum and Mary Anne Yendell. Her mother was Ellen Coles, second wife of Arthur.

Any information on any Jutsums in the area would be appreciated.

Thanks

Krys

Hi Krys
Do you have any dates or census info for the family? There is a Richard George Jutsum age 28, unmarried, living with his family in the 1901 census at Bishops Nympton, Devon.

Thanks for all your replies. I should have mentioned that I already had access to all the census info for 1851, 1861, 1871 and 1881.

I guess I am really looking for other researchers of the Jutsum family and more personal information about the families and any decendent of the families.

Thanks again

In White's 1850 Directory of Devonshire. Richard Jutsum is mentioned as being a farmer in Noth Molton. Nothing new for your information, but a bit more flesh on the bones.

[Trish]

Krys,

I guess we're all looking for those extra bits that give our ancestors a little character and personality.

To add to what kmdward has given you, JUTSUMs are also mentioned in White's History, Gazetteer & Directory of Devon, 1878-79:

-- F. JUTSUM is a member of the school board in Bishop Nympton Parish.

-- Richard JUTSUM of Grilstone in Bishop's Nympton Parish is a relieving officer and registrar of births and deaths for the South Molton Union Workhouse.

-- Fredk JUTSUM of East Avercombe and Joseph JUTSUM of Grilston [sic] are listed as farmers in Bishop's Nympton Parish.

And in Kelly's Directory of Devon, 1889:

-- Frederick Jutsum is listed as farmer at Grilstone and Joseph as a farmer at East Avercombe. Richard is still a registrar and relieving officer for Witheridge district and living at Grilstone cottage. Both Richard and Joseph are listed as registrars for Exmoor sub-district, Richard as a deputy. Richard also sits on the school attendance committee as an attendance and inquiry officer.

-- Edwin Jutsum of Seven crosses, Tiverton, is listed as a Councillor for West Exe Ward with a note that he will retire in 1889.

Regards,

Trish

A little more...

In Kelly's Directory of Devon & Cornwall, 1902:

-- Richard JUTSUM is still a relieving officer for the Workhouse, South Molton district and an attendance officer for the school but he's also listed as a "relieving & vaccination officer & registrar of births & deaths for Witberidge sub-district & collector to guardians & school attendance officers, South Molton union, 18 South street".

-- Frederick JUTSUM is living at Elm Bank cottage, South Molton.

-- Edwin JUTSUM is a farmer at Patcott, Tiverton

In Kelly's Directory of Devon & Cornwall, 1914:

-- Joseph JUTSUM is listed as a "farmer & surveyor, valuations for tenant right and probate undertaken, East Avercombe".

-- Henry JUTSUM is a grocer, 10 Newport street, Tiverton.

-- Edwin JUTSUM is still a farmer at Patcott, Tiverton

In Kelly's Directory of Devon, 1919:

-- Joseph is still listed as a farmer & surveyor as in 1914, Henry is still a grocer, same place and Edwin is still a farmer, same place.

-- George JUTSUM of East Avercombe is listed as correspondent for the public elementary schools in Bishopnympton.

[KrysEmery]

Hi Jan!

No luck finding any connections between our families as yet. I'm not giving up because I'm sure there must be one!

I have been e-mailing Terry Morley but I don't think I know Tony Saverly.

Good luck with the research

I have photograps of Richard Jutsum 1800-1871 and Mary Anne Yendel 1798 -1873, their daughter Esther Passmore and husband W. H. Passmore, their son John Passmore and his sister Harriet Nance Matthews, John's daughter Lilian Passmore who married Edgar James, their daughter Helen and brother Harold -and ME. Helen was my mum - so hello there. I have two sisters and a brother. If you want to contact me to find out more about us please do. I live in Norfolk.

[KrysEmery]

Hi Becky,

It is great to hear from you! It sounds like we are "relatives" - very distant ones, but still descended from the same family.

In that small entry, there is already a bunch of information that I didn't have before. I would love to see the photo!

Thanks heaps

Krys

Hello Krys

Have just taken a look at your web site, and noticed the address you have down for the Passmores in the 1891 census. It should read Rural, Private House, Town End, Braunton. ('Rural' was usually referred to as Rural Cottage).

Hi Krys,
I know that we are not related as I have been working on that branch of my family tree but I do have some info on Frederick Jutsum. He was married to my ggAunt Annie (nee Faulkner) Dighton. Fred was the second husband. They were married ca. June 1893, So. Molton, in the Church of England. I tried to email you a photograph yesterday but not sure if you received it. We have a few things in the family - a photo of his headstone, and what is interesting is the "Key to the Church of England". I have the photos but a cousin of mine has the actual key. Its a beauty.

As I look over my notes I have a question for you. I have a photo of a Nelly Stokes from 27 Wheatstone Road, Southsea. The postcard is dated March 1925 and Nelly is about 18 years old. Is this someone in the family on your side?

I would love to have a photo of Frederick is possible. I have more info on Annie if you would like but I'm afraid this forum could not hold the info.

What do you think? Love to hear from you. Carol...

[Johnsonroots]

I am really enjoying your web site but how do I go about sending you these photoes? You said to mention if there were any differences in my info: I thought that my grandfather's name was Edgar James and also the name Watkin which was carried on by Harold who hyphenated Watkin-James. There is an Aunt Rebecca who appears on your web site and when I was getting married Granny James (Lillian) gave me Aunt Rebecca's wedding ring which I had re-designed and is on my finger today. I also have a letter which is addressed to Mrs. James (again Lillian) from someone called Eileen Norman which contains a lot of information about someone called Basil Matthews MA Oxon. It says a lot about who he is but not what connection he has with Lillian or why Eileen Norman was supplying this information to Lillian. Lillian put together a huge amount of our family tree and when I was married we had the chart she had made hanging on a wall for everyone to see. Sadly I don't know where that went but she has three grandsons who may know more. If my memory serves me correctly she traced part of the Passmore family back to the time of the Spanish Armada when it stopped abruptly. Her conclusion was that the next link could possibly be a Spanish sailor who made it ashore when the Armada was defeated. So your next trip may take you to Spmessage=I am really enjoying your web site but how do I go about sending you these photoes?

Hi , I have found the connection to my William Cook Jutsum in London , his parents were John Jutsum and Elizabeth Townson/Townsend of Devon , I found the connection through a baptism 1771 and confirmation through WCJutsum stepmother Mary Jutsum nee Skinner and possibile Chudleigh , money to him in a will , I now want to go further back and get accurate information on the father John Jutsum , he was from Devon , he was alive in 1763 when his daughter Elizabeth Townson White was born and he was desceased when his widow wrote her will in 1806 , thanks for any help ,

[christanel]

Hi Frederickay
I have been trying to decide whether to give your post re the Jutsums a thread of its own as the last post on this thread was in Sept 2006 but for now I will leave it and see if any of the original posters reply. They should receive email notification of your post IF thy still use the same email addresses they had when they joined the forum. A case of wait and see.
Of course there may be other Brit-Gen members who can help :smile5:

Dear Krys,

I hope you are still interested after all these years. My dad was Richard Bertram Jutsum born 1912 in Bristol. He had a sister, Dorothy, a sister Pearl (a couple short of a six pack) and a few more siblings but we are not a close family so i have forgotten.

my grand dad was Bertram Jutsum from South Molton and later moved to Bristol. He spent some time in Persia and Jamaica. He had a brother, Kingsland Jutsum who went on to be a very very big knob at Lloyds bank as my Lloyds manager told me years ago when i told where to stick the account.

I have two sisters, Ruth and Dawn one in Oxford and one in Guildford who recently passed away.

I lived in Jamaica for a few years and heard of a Peter Jutsum who ran some kennels.

I now live in Australia and whilst i am ,or was the only Jutsum here i am told an Arthur JUTsum moved to Australia in 1885. I was contacted some years ago by a John Fox in NSW whose great grandmother, Edith Coles emigrated to Australia to be with her sister Ellen Jutsum nee Coles and her family. Arthur was apparently her second husband. There is some connections there I think.

John Fox may still be around so if you want his address please let me know.

Hope that wasn't boring and old news and if you want any more my sister, Ruth has a fair bit of knowledge.

kind regards

Adrian JUTSUM
