My Tree Suffix field with DNA and other Labels

DNA and other Labels using the Suffix field

Suffix field is often quoted as for Dr or Jnr and such like

My usage. It helps in tree search and following lines through



DNA ancestors of my matches. Cousins then aunt or uncle and back to my grandparents

TLINK
      tree link. DNALink well a cousin who does not DNA match me has a DNA link to someone I have as a match

gfmf - g my grandparents.
            father mother father side which would lankshear skeggs skeggs

gmmm would be Eagle Robbins Russell

and so on of course. no G would mean aunt/uncle/cousin

mfm Eagle Eagle King

nr not researched which I use for spouse of anut/uncle/cousin

    of course their children would be cousins but the spouse is not a blood relative
    DNA is through blood relatives.

    For Spouse I also use Custom Labels namely "Spouse not researching"

DNA results and Family Tree on Ancestry

December 2019 I finally put my family tree on Ancestry
To see you will need to register which is free.
Should be easy and they should not ask for a credit card - back out if they do
Pedigree View - Ancestry.com.au
I put the tree there so I also did their DNA and it has all helped find new data and cousins.
If you have DNA there or a tree please contact me and we can link etc
If any of you are on my tree your name should be shown as Private.
I am finding new data and ironing out difficulties so let me know any you spot etc
I am afraid the tree maybe right up to date for some people
but for others the web site is best

Ron's Matrilineal Line


Well I've always had my direct Lankshear line which is of course my father and his father etc.
And I'd researched by grandmother's and their mother's etc as far as I could
Then I realised there was another approach the mother's of my mother etc


Ron Lankshear - my Direct Lines - Patrilineal and Matrilineal
So I guess we should all have the same mtDNA - I tested my yDNA but have not paid for mt as yet.
So my Eagle side cousins who have Elizabeth Eagle/Robbins as the mother of their mother should have this same Matrilineal  line.
And I now have it back to several women from Northampton shire - actually around the village of Long Buckby. Best I can do at the moment is a marriage in 1786.
The links are I think sound genealogy research in the sense of the names of children and their siblings etc have agreement. Later it would be nice to find Wills etc supporting the connections but often that is difficult - if not impossible.

Ron's Uncle Bert (Herbert Eagle)

Finally managed to put a lot of data and photos together 

1889 Herbert (Bert) Christopher EAGLE birth and marriage etc

and his daughter
Gladys A C M Eagle who married Arthur T H Williams in 1938 in Woolwich Kent 

Bert son of David William EAGLE (1866-1929) who married Elizabeth Robbins.  in 1885

and out of the photos and other things I found came the surprise that in 1920s he visited Australia

Mary Eagle born c1825 was daughter of William Eagle the artist

Well I thought 1841 census Mary was the sister of John and William living with them in Glasgow. Now establised as a daughter of Wm. I am in touch with her descendants Rosalie and Avis and her husband John see
Mary EAGLE c1825 to 1915 daughter to William Eagle and Elizabeth Sinclair

Mary married then 1850 went to Aussie goldfields and eventually went to New Zealand and re-married. it could be she was baptised same church as Ron's ancestor John but records not as yet found......

William Eagle born Norfolk 1748 married Scotland 1798 died 1828


William EAGLE from Norfolk who married in Scotland in 1798 was reported as 80 when he died in 1828 which meant he was born around 1748.

here is recent research March 2012 into his birth and parents

see  William EAGLE of Norfolk who married Ann Bran/Brann/Brand

 2012 I now think William was born 1748/9 William EAGLE in Rushford Norfolk and his parents were
1711 Henry Eagle who married Ester Keller in 1745 re 1748/9 William EAGLE in Rushford Norfolk


The map shows how close Wm birth place Rushford was to Euston where his parents married and also West Stow where sister Elizabeth was born

Eagle cousins I would love opinions on the reseach and if can add or correct anything

Major Announcement for 2011


1713 was as far back as we had got with the folk who started the Lankshear spelling of our surname- via this 1713 Robert LANCHISHEAR marriage to Frances DAWSON - the first marriage in linked tree

Well this year 2011 I've found the birth of  Robert 
1686 baptism Robert LANCHASHEIRE in Castle Cary, Somerset

and 1686 was also the year Frances Dawson was born so they were the same age when they married.....

I've been trying to get further back for Robert's parents and you can follow that search on the web pages themselves

So previously there were the LANKSHEAR families from Oxfordshire and the LANKESHEER families from Someset. Now we are all from Somerset. 

There are now Sharing icons available on the web pages.. So you can send to others interested in any pages about your family groups or post on Facebook etc....
Having a share by blogger icons enables me to quickly write a new blog page. Hence this current blog... You can follow these blogs through RSS feeds which I cannot set up for the web site itself.

Ann and William HORNER

My great grand Aunt Ann King married William Horner in 1850
I had found them in 1851 and also Ann's death in 1900
But inbetween I had not found.
My dear cousin Diane found them in 1881 and also was finding marriages etc of their children

In 1881 they were indexed as HOMER - so off I went and found 1861 as Horne and 1871 as Horner
and also William's death in 1890

here is the detail

HORNER - marriage of William to Ann KING sister of future Jane EAGLE

Many thanks to Diane who is a really big help in EAGLE research. Diane's father is my Uncle Ernie
who was a great opera singer and we used to have great musical parties with my father playing the piano.

Maps of Thomas Sylvester Lankshear and family

Houses that Thomas Sylvester Lankshear lived in and Caroline when she moved in with Clement Caswell. Also TSL and Caroline's daughter Flora from 1891 and her marriage to George Norcutt in 1909. More to add - Patty for example

Do click to open the View Flora Norcutt (Lankshear) in a larger map and you should see the "blue" markers for the places. Index on left side of map



View Flora Norcutt (Lankshear) in a larger map

Flora Lankshear in 1901 - she married George Norcutt in 1909

At time of 1901 census Flora Lankshear was a servant with the Welham family at 365 Brixton Rd Lambeth in 1901. The house immediately in front in this view is actually number 363 and 365 is hidden by a bus and trees. Across the corner of Gresham Rd the police station at number 367 is still there so the house numbers have not changed since 1901.

Please ignore the numbers that google maps header says. Zoom into the house and you will see it is 363. The one on right behind blue lamp - use arrow on map to page right to see what can be seen of 365. Street View has changed since I wrote bus has moved and house in 2018 view is behind the green tent stall. Anyone visiting Brixton with a camera?

I checked and the Police station is still 367

IVENS and STALEY

Elizabeth LANKSHEAR married Martin Ivens of  Northampton

Finally confirmed that Elizabeth married John STALEY in 1777 and
then Martin IVENS 21 March 1792 at Aston Le Walls

SHAW

Shaw Family Documents

I found out some more about my great grand mother in Banbury - folk on that list very helpful

But tracing the marriage of father John SHAW to an Elizabeth is difficult and also John's possible father George to a Mary

SKEGGS family from Hertfordshire

SKEGGS family from Hertfordshire

Ron's grandmother's family - I thought they were in Canada well before Nan was born there but have now found them in Wales and also some new children born in UK so I can order a birth certificate and find out the maiden of Nan's mother who was also an Elizabeth Sarah.

Frances Lankshear born around 1826

I only know Frances from a census entry - I would guess her as a sister of Thomas but nothing else known. Actually Anthony in his research had Thomas born October 1811 and I have never found anything to support that.

1841 Thomas Lankshear census with Jane and Frances

I am now thinking that Frances was shown incorrectly with Lankshear surname by enumerator and she was most likely a servant of another name

1871 Thomas Lankshear living with Emma and her son Henry in Chiswick

A sad story but Thomas Lankshear found in 1871 Thomas Lankshear living with Emma and her son Henry in Chiswick
whereas his wife
1871 census Jane LANKSHEAR (nee Barrow) wife of Thomas visiting her brother in law

1901 Edith Blanche Lankshear marriage Charles Miller

1901  Edith Blanche Lankshear marriage Charles Miller
I am just thrilled to have these wonderful photographs  Thanks so much to John Erwin who sent them  charlesmillerwedding  

1839 Joseph Lankshear marriage Hannah Higham in Kensington

1839 Joseph Lankshear marriage Hannah Higham in Kensington

Some what of a mystery - there are two possible Joseph
But why is Hannah not with Joseph in 1841 census and what happens to her
 

1830 John Lankshear marriage Margaret Smith at Westminster, Middlesex

1830 John Lankshear marriage Margaret Smith at Westminster, Middlesex

I know John Lankshear married Margaret Pearson in 1808 and I have not found a death for her - difficult in London prior 1837.
So it is vague to know if 1830 Margaret Smith is marrying that John or someone else. Later census have John and Margaret but which Margaret.
The census one is from Scotland. Any ideas?
