Elizabeth Boddington

SuzanneRyan1701 — 2012-02-18 06:56:30Z

Hope someone can help looking for information on an Elizabeth Boddington (could also be Buddington) who was married to a Stephen Dickens (Dickins) in and around Mount Moriac Geelong Australia about 1851. That is all the information I have.

Edward BUDDINGTON

KenOzanne — 2011-03-13 18:28:54Z

Edward BUDDINGTON married Charity (surname unknown) about 1754.

They had daughters Thomasin (13-4-1755), Charity (24-6-1759), Mary Ann (18-10-1761), Joan (18-5-1765) and Elizabeth (23-8-1767), all in Stoke Damerel. Elizabeth was my 4G grandmother. I can't find a marriage in Stoke Damerel for Edward and Charity, presume they were married in some nearby parish not on IGI.

It would appear that the surnames BUDDINGTON and BODDINGTON were interchangeable at that time.

Can anybody offer help?

Bodington (Single D) South Africa & Rhodesia

danegrant — 2010-01-21 17:10:50Z

I have relatives who are Bodingtons (single D), and have not managed to have any luck in my searches to find family members John Bodington from the Cape Province and William Bodington from Johannesburg, both in South Africa and were brothers.

I have details for their other brother, Charles Bodington(1877-1961) who married Jessie McMaster(1882-1968) and then moved to Rhodesia in the early 1920's. Their son, Archibald Peter Bodington(1915-1937) had a daughter with Anne Margaret Bouwer, who was called Maureen. Maureen is my grandmother.

OBE and MBE

kevinchatfield1 — 2009-11-04 08:56:58Z

I have been doing some research on my fifth cousin Colonel George Lewis Redner Bodington. Searching through the London Gazette I found an entry for him dated 10 December 1946 that has him with an OBE. I can find no entry that grants him that award unlike his brother.

His brother was Major Nicholas Redner Bodington (he of the SOE) who is listed as having the OBE and MBE but again I can find no entry in the London Gazette where he is granted the MBE (if indeed they list MBE receipients, I havn't checked)

Does anyone know where I can find this missing information or who to contact to find it?

It has occured to me that the London Gazette has made an error but I hope not.

Re: OBE and MBE

kevinchatfield1 — 2009-11-01 13:54:11Z

If someone knows the answer there won't be any need but I will keep writing to them in reserve.

Why don't you write to the London Gazette and ask them?

Hi
I have only just seen this message board. Was the William to whom you are referring married to Hellen or Ellen? We have a Richard we think was christened All Hallows Staining London England in 1749 with parents given as Willm Bodington and Hellen.
Is this linked to your line?

jennymundy2000 — 2009-06-30 10:11:38Z

I'm researching Bodingtons and Boddingtons in the Bethnal Green,Stepney, Bow,Hackney etc area - the 2nd "d" seems to come and go depending on the spelling abilities of the writer or the accent of the speaker. We have a Richard Bodington married to Frances date of first offspring William c1774. Richard himself bc 1749 may have parents William (Willm) and Hellen possibly Ellen? Grateful to know if you have any connection with or knowledge of this line.

Hi

I know you first posted this a number of years ago, but I just wanted to check what your grandmother's siblings were named.
My great grandfather was called Edward Boddington and his second wife was Anne (last name unknown). They had 4 children including a Kathleen, also Annie, Christopher and Valerie.

Does this fit your tree?

Regards

RICHARD BODDINGTON

carolritchey18 — 2008-03-13 02:38:27Z

Researching: Richard Boddington who lived in Cortlandt County, New York in the late 1800's. He was born in England in 1816. He married Ann E. ? (parents unknown) also born in England. They had several children, one of which was my grandmother, Margaret, born in New York.
Would be grateful for any more info.
Thank you,
Carol

Thanks. Funnily enough I was at the SoG yesterday (first time in years). As you say, there is a huge mass of information for Bodington/Boddington researchers (including fascinating interviews and letters, plus the separately-shelved family trees). But for some reason Bailey does not crop up in any of the volumes.

hcb0609 — 2008-02-20 18:34:06Z

Hi, Those names don't ring any bells with me but there are many volumes of the Bodington info in the Society of Genealogists. If you look at their online catalogue you should be able to see. The info is all well indexed - but note the Bodington name indexes have their own separate volumes - they are not in with the other names. Staff at the Society of Genealogists had a bit of trouble finding the info when I went last week - it has been moved to some bottom shelves which are large enough to house all the volumes.

Hello Helen, I've been a member of the SoG for years but haven't examined the Bod(d)ington material, so thanks for the tip.

In my mother's line (she's née Boddington but was always more interested in her Bassett ancestry) I've to date only got back as far as Bailey Henry Bodington (1793-1869) a lifelong Bethnal Green/Shoreditch weaver, and his father, possibly Richard.

Does this ring any bells with you?

I have researched some BODDINGTONs who came to, and settled in, Victoria, Australia.

Richard W Sullivan: may I please have your latest email address (centerfarm@cox.net failed) so that I may send to you an electronically generated chart.

Helen Bell: may I also please have your email address so that I can do the same.

I am keen to swap BOD(D)INGTON family history information and I hope you both are as well.

Sorry, my mistake. My Grandfather would have been born circa 1880.

Hi
I have been reading the Boddington mail with interest as just received a mrg cert showing my grt grt grandmother to have been Maria Boddington brn abt 1858 father Joseph and wonder if you have anything in your lines/information that might link to them. I think that Maria maybe born in Staffordshire U.K. as she married Henry Stride in 1877 in Tipton and they then went onto live in West Bromwich Staffordshire - but might be wrong on birth area so open to suggestions

thanks in advance
Lorraine

Hello Hellen i would be very interested in learning about your family history i don't know much of mine althose my family come from Birmingham and our name is spelt Bodington with one d

Re: Bodington Family Genealogy

2006-10-16 09:00:37Z

Hi Richard, I've just caught up with this board after a break in my Bodington and Boddington research. I would be very interested in the Bodington research you have.

There is a huge Bodington collection in the Society of Genealogists in London which covers many of the branches of the family. I have got back to the mid 1600s when the name was spelt Bodington. My branches' names evolved to Boddington. (I am descended twice over from the Bodingtons).
Look forward to hearing from you
Helen

Re: Bodington Family Genealogy

I am interested in Sarah Hannah Bodington (1823-1900), the youngest child of James Bodington (1784-1825) of Manor House, Sheepy and his wife Mary nee Repton. Sarah Hannah's grandfparents were John Bodington of Stone House Cubbington and his wife Elisabeth nee Hasbourne. In 1841Sarah Hannah married William Fowler JP of Erdington (1818-1887), the son of William and Hannah Fowler, and had at least 10 children.

I am also interested in a Dr George Bodington (1800-1882) who may be a relative although born in Calverton Buckinghamshire. George was a well known Erdington GP and appers to have married William Fowler's aunt Ann Fowler in Birmingham in 1827. George Bodington's brothers Robert Bodington (a farmer) and William Bodington (another GP) were also born in Calverton but appear in Kenilworth on later censuses. At least 2 of George's grandchildren were born in Kenilwoth, Oliver Eaton Bodington the lawyer in 1859 and Juliet Eaton Bodington in 1860.

Edward Boddington and Maud Bazin, London

jcompton1 — 2006-07-06 21:25:14Z

Edward Boddington married Maud Marion Bazin, Jun quarter 1888, London and they lived at 28 New Bridge St where Edward was the manager of a Funeral Company that had been managed for many years by Maud's uncle, Alexis Bono, who was also my gt-gt-grandfather.
Are there any descendants of this marriage out there - I have some information about the Bazins and Brealeys.
