    Default Pinkstone Families of Tiverton, Devon

    I am looking for information about any Pinkstone families
    from Tiverton, Devon.

    I have a small amount of information about individuals and
    I am trying to connect them together.

    Some of my Pinkstone female members were lace and net makers.

    I would be grateful of any help with my Pinkstone ancestors
    from around the 1800 to 1850 time frame.

    Default Pinkstone family: Tiverton, Devon

    Hello Peter,
    Thankyou for your reply.
    There are to different families mentioned in your letter.
    The Pingstones and the Pinkstones. I don't think they
    are related.
    I have been searching for the family of sisters, Jane
    and Sarah Pinkstone. They were both born about 1820
    in Tiverton, Devon, but emigrated to Derby, Derbyshire
    before the 1841 census. Both sisters were lace or net
    menders.
    I have been able to trace Jane who married Joseph
    Blackton in 1838, but not Sarah Pinkstone.
    I have wondred why 2 sisters would leave Devonshire
    and shift to Derbyshire to live.
    I am just hoping someone else is researching these two
    sisters as I have been unable to learn anything on then
    prior to 1838.

    Regards

    Carrie

    Hi Carrie,

    I sent you an email a few days ago with my Pinkstone connections but it doesn't sound they are the same family.
    However they were also in the lace trade and seemed to move between Devon and Nottingham quite a bit.

    I believe that many of the lace factories in Devon were built by some of the Derbyshire/Nottingham factory owners and from what I have read it was not uncommon for workers to move between the two areas.

    I was looking at the Acces to Archives site and saw the following which may be of relevance:

    Devon Record Office: St Thomas Parish
    Catalogue ref: 4781 A - 99

    Overseers of the Poor
    Removal Orders: William Pinkstone, Mary his wife, Jane (15) and Sarah (13), children by his first wife Sarah, deceased, to Tiverton - ref 4781 A -99/PO 18/146 date:1832

    This archives are held by Devon Record Office - they may be able to provide more information for these papers.

    Regards
    Kate

    Default William Pinkstone

    Hi Carrie,

    I also found this on Devon pages of Genuki

    Ide marriages

    17th July 1826 William Pinkstone of the parish of Tiverton, widower and Mary Kingwell of the parish of St Thomas, Exon, spinster, married by Banns. Both signed their names. Wit. Martha Satterly, Joseph Slee, Elizabeth Kingwell, all signed their names.

    This looks like Williams second marriage as indicated by the removal order mentioned in my previous post.

    Hope this helps,
    Kate

    Default Pinkstone family o Tiverton

    Hello Kate,

    Thankyou so much Kate for the marriage record
    of William and Mary Pinkstone.
    Jane and Sarah must have been quite young when
    their mother Sarah died.
    I really appreciate your help.

    Carrie,
    I came across your post while researcing my own ancestry. My grandmother's maiden name was Pinkstone. Her family was from Totnes. William Pinkstone was a jeweller there. My father knows much more than I do about them. I will talk to him and see what he knows about Jane and Sarah.
