Hi Lynette

Eggon ---That's my tree. Message me on ancestry and we can continue our discussion there might be easier.

Hi

Re: William Henry Troth 1837 - 1929

I have hit a brick wall with this one. From his NSW death certificate 1929/012514, I know his father is a Painter called William John Troth. Mother’s...

Ohh

I had seen the Nettleton near Bath, I didn’t realise there was Nettleton near Lincoln. That brings it back into contention.

Yes. That does appear to be quite a hike from the family’s usual digs.

You are so good at this! I had found those other kid records, but Gwalter had eluded me.

I can find this marriage record, for Walter and Sarah, but I can’t find a baptism record for Walter.

I also came across this article on findmypast Periodical Source Index a few days ago and as a result I emailed the Nottinghamshire Family History Society. They have only just replied to me, and...

That John Eggleston record does look very promising.

Thanks all.

Very good to have that sorted, especially since this marriage record for Jane and William was the only one I could find.

I wonder which Baptism Record is correct for Anne Loverseeds?

Anyway, that Piece Title number ‘3961’ , is obviously not a gravesite identifier, more like a Cemetery identifier.

Well, how about that! I’ll just keep asking questions, and you will find all the answers! Lol

I wonder who the 6 month old baby Frederick belonged to? All those buried with him were dead at...

I had Ann in the tree, but not her husband. I’ll add William Rather in.
Interestingly, her burial details say Newark, Nottinghamshire, EnglandDenominationWesleyanPiece TitlePiece 3961: Newark...

I had Joseph, but not Susanna, I’ll add her in. And that is great geographical context.

I’m attributing this marriage to William Loverseeds Eggleston

Yes. But at least those characters are linked up as descendants of John Eggleston X Ann Loverseeds.

Now, if we can only find Johns parents.

Fantastic

That all checks out

Thanks for all those great leads. I’ll have a look in detail.
Also, I have found some interesting background about that William Eggleston mentioned in the Hawkens Gingerbread article you mentioned...

Wow.. no. I was not aware of that confectionary anecdote at all.

So, what does the rhyme tell us ancestry wise?

And yes, I have no other evidence of his origins apart from the marriage...

Thanks

Yes, I saw that record, but other trees have that John either married to Ann Belshaw, Elizabeth Pollard or Ann Daiken.
But obviously it’s still a possibility.

I have obtained a bit...

The family were Wesleyan Ministers, but thanks for your interest.
