Jeanffrench mentions John Glithero, born 1814, the son of Sarah Baxter and William Glithero of Whittlesey. John Glithero was my husband's g.g. grandfather. John was a convict who arrived in the colony of NSW (Australia) on board the ship “Mangles” in 1833. John Glitheroe was tried at Cambridge on 17 October, 1832 and was sentenced to seven years for breaking into a warehouse. I have found a reference for a death of a William Glithero, at Whittlesey in the December quarter of 1872, aged 88 years (Vol. No. 3b, Page No. 371). This would be John's father (husband of Sarah). I have not yet purchased William Glithero's death certificate. A death certificate has been obtained for a John Glithao, a labourer, who died on 11 March, 1889, at the Benevolent Asylum, City of Sandhurst, county of Bendigo, Victoria, Australia. This is John, the "Mangles" convict.
I have other information on the Glitheo family. I have not done any research for a few years. Perhaps it is time that I got back into the Glithero's! I am interested in finding out more about John Glithero's siblings, so hope to keep in touch with the researchers who have contributed to this thread. The Cambridge Family History Society has Glithero baptisms, burials and marriages on their website, - www.cfhs.org.uk - on a searchable database.

Norma is pictured in the 1921 Pedagog, yearbook of Southwest Texas Normal College in San Marcos, Texas, and is a sophomore. I'm not kin but thought this might help someone researching the GLITHERO family in Texas.

Hi, I am new to ancestry researching and came across your post.

I am trying to research my family and Glithero is my maiden name and I know my ancestors came from Weldon. My grandfather was James Sydney born in Weldon in 1899/1900. He was married to Ellen Maude Coleman. Other than that I do not know a lot more at the moment, but wonder if I am related to your family at all. Any help and guidance you could give me would be really useful. Thanks Margaret

Re: Glithero in Whittlesey Cambridgeshire and North Ormesby Yorkshire

jeanffrench — 2010-08-15 15:03:25Z

I have been looking at the Glithero family of Whittlesey recently and I believe that Benjamin born ca 1825 must be the son of William (born 1784) and Sarah (nee Baxter). Benjamin named one of his sons Matthew, and William had a son named Matthew. Benjamin born 1847 named a son Isaac, and William had a son named Isaac.
I believe that William and Sarah Glithero had the following nine children:
William 1810
Thomas 1811
John 1814
Mathew 1819-1847
Isaac 1822-1868
James 1822
Benjamin 1824
Emmanuel 1827 - 1892
Ann 1830-1911 (married James Lancaster).
William's father was also William. He died at Whittlesey in 1818 aged 67. Wm senior's wife Elizabeth died in 1828 aged 76 at Whittlesey.
Marriages Jun 1869 - Benjamin GLITHERO and Isabella LAUD at Whittlesey. Isabella LORD was born in 1850 at Whittlesey.
Do you think it is likely that three generations emigrated to Canada, given that the death of Benjamin who was born in 1847 cannot be found?
Births Jun 1884 - Benjamin Clithero at Middlesborough (as you are probably aware, this civil registration district includes Ormesby, and the name Glithero was often spelt Clithero).
Marriages Dec 1907 - Benjamin GLITHERO and May FISHER at Middlesborough.
Births Sep 1887 – May FISHER at Middlesborough.
This may be the son of Benjamin and May: Births Sep 1909 - Wilfred Benjamin Glithero at Middlesborough.
Unfortunately, I cannot find Benjamin and May in the 1911 census.
Deaths Mar 1913 - May Glithero aged 25 at Middlesborough.

Glithero Coat of Arms

ghbradbury1 — 2008-11-10 14:02:02Z

Hello,

I am not a Glithero, but am making a Christmas present for a very good friend and work colleague from Oxford who is. However, I am having trouble finding the Glithero coat of arms to include in his present. Do any of you Glithero's out there have one that you could send me? Thanks so much.

Re: Glithero ancestors

I gather we share the same line through Leticia and William. I have letters to John and Francis in Toronto Canaada from a brother Bill and Isabel in Columbus Texas.Other brothers mentioned are Harry, Jim and Joe. I also have letters from Marie, Bill and daughter Anne in Spokane Washington.Does this mean anything to you?
Looking forward to your reply...Gayle

Re: Glithero ancestors

gcassone1 — 2007-10-29 23:45:20Z

Jayne
What a pleasure to hear from you and also to learn more about the extended family. Our family history is very limited and I am very curious to learn more. I have a few letters in my possession and I gather the five boys from Leticia and William were William, John, Jim , Harry and Joe. There is one letter stating out of the eleven only three, William, Jim and Joe were left when they were in their seventies and they still coresponded even though they lived thousands of miles apart. Touching.

My email is g.cassone@sympatico.ca I would really appreciate it if I could learn more about the past. The fact that you have information back to 1050 is amazing. I will pass on anything I learn to my brother and cousin. We are a very small family and to finally connect across the ocean is very exciting. gayle

Re: Glithero ancestors

Jayne_Arathoon — 2007-10-29 20:20:49Z

Hello Gayle,
I live near Manchester in England.

William and Letitia had 11 children, 3 girls and 8 boys. At least 5 of the boys emigrated to the USA and Canada. The youngest Walter died when he was 3 or 4 years old.

William's parents were called James Steers Glithero and Rebecca Bugby. They also had 11 children (no TV in those days!). They had 5 sons and 6 daughters. Jacob is their eldest son, born 1822, he is my great great grandfather, William came next born in 1825.

I am not sure what information you have, but my father has traced the Glithero family back to 1066 when we came to this country from France with William the Conquerer.

Gayle

Re: Glithero ancestors

gcassone1 — 2007-10-29 12:58:48Z

My great grandfather was John Glithero who came to Toronto Canada and had two sons William Edgar ( my grandfather ) and Percy. I have letters from 1938 from a brother Bill (W. H.)s from Columbus Texas and a sister Marie in the USA John born in Weldon and assumed his mother was Letticia as I have a death card for her and a brother Thomas chambers 1902 aged 46 years. John's brother William lived in Columbus Texas and had a son Walter George .Do you know more about Leticia and William? John was a gardener in Toronto and I gather his father had the same occupation in Weldon . we live in Tillsonburg Ontario Canada Gayle

Re: Glithero ancestors

Jayne_Arathoon — 2007-10-29 08:04:55Z

William and Letitia are buried together in Weldon at St Marys Church with their youngest son aged 4 yrs, I think his name was Walter, I will check on my records later and let you know if it is different.

I have quite a bit of info on the Glithero line.

When William and Letitia stayed in Weldon most of the other Glithero family moved to Manchester, England - this is my line of the family. Quite a few of William and Letitias' family emigrated to USA.

Re: Glithero ancestors

KBoggs34 — 2007-10-29 01:35:32Z

William and Leticia were my great-great-great grandparents. My great grandmother was Lillian Glithero (Anderson). I live in Des Moines, Washington, USA.

Re: glithero

gcassone1 — 2007-10-28 23:18:41Z

Great Grandfather John born in Weldon Northamptonshire near Kettering in 1862. His mother was Leticia. Would love to hear some family background.Gayle

Re: Glithero ancestors

gcassone1 — 2007-10-28 23:05:05Z

My grandfather was William Edgar Glithero , great grandfather John who settled in Toronto Canada and John was born 1862 in Weldon Northamptonshire , near Kettering.. I am in possession of a in memory card for Letitia Glithero of Weldon aged 72 years, dec 6th 1897 . I believe she was John's mother . Also have a death card for Thomas Chambers Glithero, 46 years 1902, I gather a brother.
Where are you from? I am writing from Tillsonburg Ontario Canada. Is there a connection? Gayle

Thanks,

Re: Lazarus Kelman

2006-08-27 18:37:16Z

Hi Shawn

Well this is odd, as with the name Lazarus and Kelman I did not think there would be many!!

I have a Lazarus Kelman born about 1872/3 but Russia.

glithero or Loader

dragnet69 — 2006-08-09 19:58:27Z

My father was Kenneth Victor Glithero formerly of Kettering Northants until joining the navy and eventually , made his home with my mother Dorothy Ethel Loader on the Isle of Wight. I was born in Portsmouth but we all moved to the Island when I was 2/3 yrs old. In recent years I found two sisters I never knew I had and would love to know if anyone related to my father could bear any light on wether he was the father to one of them! We all get on well and hold no grudges at all.

Re: Glithero

shawnkates — 2006-03-04 13:11:18Z

Hi Susan,

From what I know, My ggf Lazarus Kelman was born in 1873 in Kiev, Russa. He came to Liverpool and had one child - Bessie. Apparently the wife died and he travelled to New York / Canada. Still researching but I have info in the 1911 Toronto Canada Census. Lazarus had brothers and sisters (Dora, Sam, Paul, etc...) I know the one child Bessie married into the Bokspan family.

Does this make sense?

Regards,
Shawn.

Re: Glithero

2006-03-04 00:31:22Z

Shawn, I need a little more to go on than ggf was Lazarus.

Lazarus Kelman

shawnkates — 2006-03-03 05:05:02Z

I have a relative Lazarus Kelman who came from Liverpool, born about 1872 and in the 1911 census in Canada? Does this seem familiar?

Regards,
Shawn.

Re: Glithero

shawnkates — 2006-02-27 02:39:17Z

Hi Susan,

Currently doing some reserach on Lazarus Kelman, born in 1873 from Russia. He was my ggf on my grandmother's side. From what I understand, he married someone in U.K, left from Liverpool with one daughter Beatrice and came to Toronto, Canada. Is this the same person?

Regards,
Shawn.

Re: Glithero ancestors

KBoggs34 — 2006-02-18 02:25:34Z

My idea would be that if you had a name of someone that you definately knew was your ancestor and search from there. This is what I have done and was able to trace quite a ways back.

Sharon, my ancestors Samuel +Elizabeth Glithero came from the Weldon area, some of their family did go on to Manchester also to the Cardif area.
A Mary Agnes Glithero my Great Grandma was married in 1901 in Aberystwyth to Lazarus Kelman.
Is there a connection between us?
If so can we exchange trees?

Re: Glithero

susanfarquhar — 2005-05-23 08:54:19Z

Sharon
I am a novice at this, and have only managed to go back to Samuel brn abt 1844/45 in Weldon Northampton, I do not have his parents yet , but know he had a brother Jacob as he appears living with them in Manchester, and I think I have found his marriage.
I believe Samuel's father was also called Samuel, as it appears that even if a son also called Samuel died another son would also be called that to continue the name.

I think Samuels middle name is Joseph but as yet not gone into yet

Re: glithero

Ray Glithero born 1898
John George Glithero born about 1900
Margaret Rose Glithero born 1902
They lived in Houston, TX.........I believe in the Eagle Lake area, but not sure of that.
Hope to hear from you soon & sorry again it's taken me so long to reply. Please note new e-mail addy.

Re: Glithero

2005-03-10 00:32:50Z

Chances are there is a connection. I have 2 Samuel Glithero[w]'s, one b. 1800 & d. 1811 and a brother b. 1813 who married Edith Pridmore. These were both brothers of Thomas, b. 1808, who is my 3rd great grandfather.

Let me know if this sounds right.
