Find Ancestors

Thank you Argyll.

Brief answer - yes!


Unfortunately, people may still spend time looking for records which have already been found and posted on your other threads, if enquiries overlap:

So going forward do you advise keeping this thread but changing the heading to something like Boazman family - thanks.

I know!! - there's a long list of threads you have posted connected with the name

Hello Erika, do you mean if I need any more help on the Boazman family (which I know I will have) I should keep it on this thread or start another thread with the name Boazman in the heading? Thank you.

PS - I have had Boazman enquiries in the past.

It would be better to keep all your Boazman enquiries on one thread.

Hello everyone, thank you for the above. I was expecting Ann's parents to be John and Margaret Boazman/Boseman because I had found a marriage for John Boseman to Margrett Younge 1710 Staynton in Strata yet another name for Great Stainton and Stainton le Street. I had assumed these were the parents of Ann (and also Mary and John) because there is a baptism for Margrett Boseman 3 October 1711 at Great Stainton, parents John and Margret.
I had seen a marriage for Ann Boazman to John Blackburn on family search but couldn't find a baptism for Ann. I then found a Will for John Boseman of Great Stainton dated 1 October 1750. Unfortunately he does not refer to his wife by name only by "his dear wife". He then goes on to mention his daughter Margaret wife of George Boseman (Boseman marrying a Boseman), his son in law Anthony Dodgson (married to Mary) his son in law John Blackburn (married to Ann) and then mentions his son John. Aren't Wills wonderful. So, was John married to Margrett first who then died after Margrett was born and the married Ann Eden within 2 years. Can anyone find a baptism for Margaret apart from the one I mention? Thank you again for the above.
PS - these Boazmans are a nightmare as a lot of Johns seem to marry a lot of Anns over the years :-(

All same marriage - transcripts only so can't check spelling

England marriages gives place as Stainton le Street

Durham marriages (2 entries) gives both S le S and Great Stainton which are apparently the same place(google)

Boyds marriage index gives Stainton Great

Not finding any info on Church Limpton - maybe a hamlet that no longer exists

About ‘working back’. Put Boazman in advanced search. Some clues there ;-)

And a possible marriage of parents of one or more of the Norfolk children:

John Blackburne
in the England, Select Marriages, 1538–1973
Name: John Blackburne
Gender: Male
Marriage Date: 02 Sep 1750
Marriage Place: St Stephen, Norwich, Norfolk, England
Spouse: Anne Green
FHL Film Number: 1471578
Reference ID: item 12 p 130

I suspect these are the parents of the Lancashire child whose birth Malyon posted:

John Blackburn
in the England, Select Marriages, 1538–1973
Name: John Blackburn
Gender: Male
Marriage Date: 21 Oct 1753
Marriage Place: Saint Peter-Rc,Lytham,Lancashire,England
Spouse: Ann Webster
FHL Film Number: 0599710 IT 2

How did you work back to this couple if you weren't able to find births of children?

the births i posted in norfolk could be the john and ann you are looking for as the only marriage in norfolk in in 1777 so the children born 1754-1758 cannot be their children

Thanks both.

Re Church Limpton -

No idea - but I wonder if it might have something to do with Kirklevington, formerly Kirk Leventon, also known as Kirk Linton?

Perhaps someone thought the proper name should be Church Linton , and then mis-heard the "Linton" part ???
Wild guess!

Thanks Argyll, any ideas on where Church Limpton could be. I can't find any children for this marriage so was wondering if they may have been born there.
