Thanks Derek of course there are no Gilberts they are in hiding LOL. I have photos of some of the headstones although there are loads in a thicket of trees that have been removed for safety and they are totally inaccessable unfortunately .I bet Gilbert was there laughing at us LOL .I have not made this Thorpe Connection yet although saying that I think THF boarded with Thorpe's on one census. I will go and take a look now and add edit

Edit. On 1851 he is a servant with the Thorps also noticed a Parker and a Dunnicliffe (Tunnicliffe????) on there. This needs further investigation me thinks !

Morning LA.....Have eeided to get these Gravestones out of the way.
These are the sum total of all the Measham Inscriptions at St. Wystan's.
Clearly, now we know that various members of this notorious clan sided elsewherelike in Burton on trent, we haven't got them all..but these are the Repton ones.

You probably know these because you said you'd visited the scene..however, let's pretend you don't!!

Inside the church there is a Brass Plaque dedicating a window to the memory of ROBERT GEORGE MEASHAM and his wife EMMA HANNAH
It is the gift of Mary Measham who died 29.07.1914. It was dedicated 29.07.1904
This is officially MI no CH31

Said Robert George buried 27.10.1872 aged 67 and Emma hannah 12.12.1864 aged 57 are in PLOT D134


D259 and D260 contain SAMUEL MEASHAM 26.06.1817 and his wife MARY MEASHAM nee Thorp 12.09.1844 aged 67. and their daughter Mary THORP 12.09.1844 aged 67

This is interesting becasue i keep coming up against the THORPS in later measham history.

PLOT D133... THOMAS MEASHAM 15.02.1854 aged 74 and his wife Ann 17.02.1853 aged 5



Plot C124..ANN ELIZABETH MEasham 04.01.1900 aged 70

C121 GEORGE MEASHAM 10.01.1858

PLOT C122 his wife ANN REBECCA 07.05.1862 aged 59

PLOT C123 GEORGE MEASHAM 15.01.1830 aged 60

PLOT 237 WILLIAM MEASHAM 01.03.1880 aged 74 and his wife ELIZABETH 16.11.1889 aged 83
PLOT C119 DOROTHY MEASHAM 10.07.1835 wife of:

PLOT C120 RICHARD MEASHAM 20.02.1821 aged 65, and their son Richard 12.11.1803 aged 4

MARY MEASHAM (12.03.1914) who deicated the window and her sister Emma Doroth 03.04.1900 are buried together.

Sort that lot out!!! (Notice no Gilberts!!)

Hi Derek, thanks for that I got a bit confused as I thought Mary Ann Parker would have been too old to have THF. I can now put this info correctly on my tree. Yes I have found the children of THF and Emily although obviously have not written them in yet until I confirmed info with you. This and other info will keep me busy updating for a little while and then I will gedcom to this site.LOL.

Derek Report 14 May 2010 12:12

Hi Gooner.you're not waffling.....Gilbert did marry Mary Meakin....I have her death from Parish Records direct..ignore Ancestry Trees..and he married Mary Ann Parker and they had THF measham..who indeed did marry Emily..I'm glad you didn't already know that!!

Still looking for Mary Ann's maiden name!!!

Still haven't put on your MI's from St.Wystan's...bear with me.
EDIT 13.17..have you got the children of THF and Emily?? they moved to Etwall and he died 1906 Burton on trent.

Sorry to hear you have been poorly Derek. . I had no inkling that Emily married Thomas H F !!. As she linked in through another little twig of tree. Is this now right as this is how I see it.
Gilbert married Mary Meakin who then died in 1830 ?. He remarried Mary Parker in 1831 and had Thomas H F.

EDIT !!!! or according to another tree Mary Meakin did not die until 1860 so was she Thpmas H F's Mum ?

PS see you did shine LOL

Derek Report 13 May 2010 15:19

Hello Gooner...sorry not to get back to you..not been well....pity you already know about Emily Foster.because you've robbed me of a chance to shine!!

I bet you already know this but:-....Emily Foster daughter of Richard and Miriam..married Thomas Myring..don't know where or when, but that is no longer important.

By 1861 she is widowed and living back with her parents

In 1871 she is married a again to aThomas MEURAW aged 38 living with her daughter Emily Myring aged 11 and her widowed mother.

So i said Whoa this is my pain in the neck Gooner, and that name is ever so like MEASHAM!!
So i checked it out and of course it IS Thomas Horatio Frederick Measham baptised Repton 05.01.1834 son of our Favourite(!!) Gilbert and Mary

Would be great if you didn't already know this,,but of course you do........

Derek, can you see if you can find who Emily Foster married June 1858, Derbyshire possibly Etwall / Findern. I think it may have been Thomas Myring. Many thanks.

thats great thanks. The children were Joseph b1887, John William b 1889..Agnes c1887 Grace 1891, Elizabeth 1893 and Eva 1898. I think the younger girls may have been put in a workhouse? By the 1901 census Catherine was with her new family! Margerison is sometimes misspelt Margison on the records I gather? I would really like to trace these relatives and know what became of them after their mother left. :( Also if you come accross any Lister or Longleys they may well be Catherine Lister's relatives as seamingly Beard and Bridge and Bancroft names are linked through marriage, wich is how i guess they came to be in Glossop from Sheffield?

thanks for that
