Many Thanks

Re: Armitages in Canada

sandlgreen — 2012-03-02 17:42:32Z

The first of the Armitage's was "old William" of Newton Mills.
Do you happen to know anything about this person. All I can find out is that he came to Ontario pre 1800's. My Armitages (it was my maiden name) are mostly Methodist, moving mostly to Quyon, Quebec. I think they may have started out in England, coming to Ireland, and then to Canada.
It is like this "William" was just dropped on the earth. Hope you can help.

'Cause if he was where he was supposed to be, that would be too easy!!

Re: Thomas Armitage

jackarmitage31 — 2011-04-07 23:49:23Z

Just been through the 1891 census. He's not there.
Could have moved on to USA by then I suppose. Why did they do this?

Re: Thomas Armitage

jackarmitage31 — 2011-04-07 20:28:31Z

Thanks Eileen, Thomas emigrated from England in 1883. The passenger list shows Port of arrival as Halifax, Nova Scotia and Portland Maine. However, under the last column (Port at which Passengers have contracted to Land) 'Lindsay Ont' has been written against his name. I guess that was probably where he was heading. What happened to him next? I will have look at the Armitage family you mention but think there's not likely to be a connection.

Re: Thomas Armitage

EileenWilson001 — 2011-04-07 19:33:16Z

Not sure whether you're trying to work forwards or backwards from Thomas. I am unable to find anything concrete on him, but did not a large Armitage family in Victoria County (where Lindsay is located) in the 1891 Canadian Census headed up by Samuel & Susan. Samuel is 46 in this census, but born in Ontario.

Alfred Armitage

TrevorAdamson74 — 2011-03-23 20:28:36Z

I am looking for Alfred Armitage born between 1850-60 in Huddersfield, father was joseph according to his marriage cert, on the 1911 census Alfred is 60,1901 census 50, 1891 census 37, and on his marriage cert in 1887 he is 27 when he married Margaret Ann Edwards, anyone with any ideas would be much appreciated

Caleb Armitage (1777-1847) & Catherine McCabe (1771-1846)

jmfreed — 2011-03-06 13:29:50Z

Numerous entries on http://worldconnect.rootsweb.ancestry.com state that the Caleb Armitage who is listed as the son of Caleb and Mary (Striker) Armitage married Catherine McCabe in 1798 and (2) Jane Simpson in 1805 and he (Caleb) died in 1828 in Henderson Township, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania.

These conclusions are contraindicated by the following facts: (1) The brother of Catherine McCabe, Richard Butler McCabe (of Indiana County, PA) wrote in 1853, the following: "My sister Catherine Armitage is dead. Her son John owned or did not long since, a good farm, near Portsmouth, Ohio. Her husband Caleb Armitage is also dead".

(2) The Caleb Armitage and Catherine McCabe of the 1 October 1798 marriage in Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania moved, by 1814, to Scioto County, Ohio, with a large number of records found of that family in that county. About 1839, the couple (with son John, but not the daughter, Martha, who married Elijah Musgrove in 1822) migrated to Delaware County, Indiana (near Muncie) where Caleb died 13 March 1847 and Catherine died 30 October 1846; both buried in the Tomlinson Cemetery, Delaware County, Indiana. Their son John had three children, including David R. Armitage, M.D., a highly respected physician in that county.

My hypothesis for the parents of this Caleb Armitage (married Catherine McCabe) are Jacob (probable brother of the above-mentioned Caleb Armitage, wife Mary Striker) and Rebecca Armitage. In Jacob's estate settlement (Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, Orphans Court Records, dated February 1797), is the following: “Petition of Rebecca Armitage, mother of Caleb Armitage, aged 12 years, minor son of said decendant [sic] requesting a guardian be appointed. Whereupon the Court appointed Andrew Henderson, Esq.” The age of twelve in 1791 calculates to a birth about 1779, not far from the Delaware County, Indiana, cemetery record of the birth of Caleb Armitage (wife Catherine McCabe) in 1777.

This line meets mine at John Armitage in Galen, NY. Edwin's father William F. is a brother to my John B. Armitage. I think William F. and his son Edwin were both married twice.

Any information is greatly appreciated.

They had 3 children, Emilie Eugenie b 1871, died in infancy, Emiline Desiree b1873 died aged 16, and then my GGrandfather William Leon b1874 and d 1947.

michaellewis29 — 2010-06-28 01:29:46Z

Many of the armaj people of Romania are Kalsh. They are from the Pakistan mountains from a small tribe called Kalash. Later they became Ashkenazi Jews as was my family. Paul and Sara Rosenfeld came from Romania in 1898. Sara was a Armatraj, her father was Joseph, born around 1853 in Romania.. They lived in the Bronx area for many years until the children moved away. Paul and Sara died I Los Angeles around 1943.

Kalash

michaellewis29 — 2010-06-28 01:15:11Z

My ancestors were from Romania. Sara armatraj was born there in 1875. She married a Paul Rosenfeld in Romania and they went to the states in1898. Their DNA shows they were kalash from the mountains of Pakistan. I have this DNA, does anyone have the DNA putting them in the mountains of Pakistan. This same dna is found in ashkinazi Jews from the same area. Does anyone in the Rosenfeld family or armatraj family know they are kalash. Lewispaiute8@aol.com

Re: LAURENCE A. ARMITAGE IN LEEDS WEST YORKSHIRE, ENGLAND

volim — 2010-05-12 08:55:14Z

This is the reply I have received from the lady in Italy, so it would seem not to be the Lawrence that you speak about.

Brenda.

'His name was L.A. Armitage on the Air Letters addressed to him and from the letters themselves I learned his name was "Lawrence" - watch the spelling, not "Laurence", though he was also called Laurie. His second name - I have no idea about. But he was a land soldier, a Rifleman of the London Irish Rifles, not an airman. So, this correspondant has a different Armitage'.

Hello there,

Thank you for replying to my message.

Sadly I have now idea what the 'A' stands for and I have only the information already given in my initial message.

I may have wrongly presumed that he was in the Army, when indeed he could have been in the R.A.F. However, I will check this out with the lady in Italy and get back to you.

Once again, thank you.

DO you know of or have you heard of an Alexander Armitage. Born between 1908 to 1915 . From the Lancashire area. My Grandmother is desperate to find out who her real father was and we just cant seem to find any information on him. We beleive he had something to do with the airforce and was stationed to the middlesex area. If you can help or have any information it would be appreciated.
