George WHITTINGTON - Hatter published by Pat Hase - 1 years 4 months 3 days ago. | | That's an interesting idea. I have forwarded it to the enquirer who I'm sure will be back in touch with me. Thank you very much. Thank you also for answering some of my queries in the past - it's always good to have someone else's thoughts on our research because all to often we go the same way each time and it takes a fresh view to clear the air! Happy New Year! | |
George WHITTINGTON - Hatter published by gricharduk - 1 years 4 months 14 days ago. | | I was wondering if John WHITTINGTON (1) (George's father) might be the only son of the Rev. John WHITTINGTON (2), rector of Cold Aston? John (1) married Mary OSBORNE on 1 May 1824 at Cold Aston. However, he died on 11 January 1837 (buried at Cold Aston on the 18 January), and Mary remarried a James HUFF at St Mary Redcliffe on 9 April 1841. So, I was wondering if this is where George got the idea he was born at Bristol? Crucially, this hangs on the fact that John (1) was a milliner/hatter - which I cannot prove. Finding George's baptism might help ... there are so many unanswered questions! | |
December 2022 Newsletter published by Pat Hase - 1 years 5 months 1 day ago. | | Thank you for mentioning the Cloves in Oranges - a modern form of Chris-tingle. See here for its origin. I had forgotten the hours spent making paper lanterns and stringing them up. This video is an up-market and modernised version of the ones we made. | |
December 2022 Newsletter published by Jenny Towey - 1 years 5 months 1 day ago. | | Many thanks for yet another interesting and informative newsletter, Pat.
I remember making paper chains for both school and home, together with paper lanterns and sticking cloves into oranges... why did we do that?!!
Tony beat me to it in answering your marriage certificate question!!
