Hi Catherine.
Could you contact me on meldave@slingshot.co.nz
I have lost contact with Mike through this website who has researched the Sainsbury's back to the 1700's and kindly shared the information with me. There may be a connection to your Sainsbury's.

Hello, Meldave, how lovely to hear from you! I have virtually no knowledge of the occupations of my great grandparents, Edwin and Edith Amelia Sainsbury. I do know that they lived in Portswood in Southampton, and that's about it! Edwin's brother, Isaac, fought in the first world war in the Royal Engineers (my own grandfather's regiment). Also, Isaac is grandfather of cricketer Peter Sainsbury. That's my regular claim to fame! I think it's very likely that the Southampton Sainsburys and the Breamore Sainsburys are linked. I must try and find out about some occupations, other than the army ones I already know about. Kind regards, Catherine.

Re: Sainsburys of Hampshire

meldave162 — 2012-05-04 07:20:25Z

I am interested in your comment about your Sainsbury relatives having names beginning with E. I am wondering if you are connected to my family as we have similar names in our line. My gt grandfather was Edmund, his father was Egbert who emigrated to New Zealand in 1861. There is an Edwin, Edgar, Walter, Edward, Ellen, Fanny, Martha, Mary. They were from Breamore Hampshire but I believe there were relatives in Southampton involved in the marine industry.

Hi there Aaron,

Your Grandpa Cyril is my uncle. I am his sister Joan's daughter. My name is Judy. I still live in Revelstoke with my husband Rob. It has been years since I heard from your Grandma Irene.....actually after Robert died. Last time I saw Kenneth was at our Grandpa Sainsbury's funeral. Hope you get this as I see it has been a while since you posted.
Send me an email. I will try to help you out.

WALTER JOHN SAINSBURY, WESTBURY ON TRYM

stewart70redwood — 2011-12-06 17:27:37Z

aNY INFORMATION ON THE ABOVE PERSON WHO MARRIED LAVINIA KATE TUDOR IN 1894?

Re: Sainsbury's Wesbury Wiltshire

stewart70redwood — 2011-12-06 17:25:46Z

Researching the Tudor line and have a Lavinia Kate Tudor who married a Walter John Sainsbury, 1894 Barton Regis. They lived in the parish of Westbury on trym, and all their children were baptized there. One son, Marcus Clifford Sainsbury went to New York as part of BOAC, and remained there until his death. Could someone fill me in on some details about Walter and his immediate family, and would love to find out if there are any photos?

Re: Sainsburys of Hampshire

catherine_reynolds1 — 2011-11-15 16:08:56Z

Hello, Jim. My Sainsbury relatives are through my mother, Janine. My Sainsburys are mainly Southampton-based, as far as I've been able to tell. The name Edwin seems to have been very popular along the male line - I've identified my great uncle Edwin, great grandfather Edwin, great great uncle Edwin, his son Edwin - so many Edwins! I am related to the cricketer Peter Sainsbury (the last Edwin mentioned is his father). My grandfather was Major Ernest George Sainsbury MBE (I'm very proud of him), and he had three brothers - Edwin, Walter and Arthur, and a sister, Rose Edith, who was known as Molly. My grandfather had an uncle Isaac, on whom I'm searching at the moment. Do any of these names ring any bells regarding your Sainsburys?

Re: SAINSBURY MKT LAVINGTON

I do not live in England, but I understand in Market Lavington there is quite a large Sainsbury tree on paper. I understand you can look at it only by going to the museum. You might be able to find what you are looking for there.

It seems that all the Sainsbury's are mainly from England. I wonder if we are all related some how?

Re: Sainsbury's from Taunton, Somerset, England.

Pip046 — 2009-10-05 21:35:16Z

Hi Virgogirl,

I do have a note of a John Harris Dandsbury who married Harriet Thorne in 1842, though not of any of his othe marriage or his children of either marriages.

However, this John is the son of John and Martha DANSBURY, iron founder according to the St Mary Magdalen, Taunton, Baptismal register - he was baptised 25th December 1815. He was one of 6 children of that marriage.

Does this help?

Re: Sainsbury's from Taunton, Somerset, England.

Pip046 — 2009-10-05 21:25:38Z

Trish,

Sorry to not have replied sooner!

Yes, I have a copy of Selina's birth certificate - this shows William SANDSBURY and Sarah SANDSBURY formerly NORTHCOTT as her parents. She was born 14th September 1843 in North Street, Taunton. The GRO Reference is 1843 Dec Taunton 10 468.

Her grandfather was John Sainsbury via his first wife Martha who dies in 1827. He remarried - to Jane Bucknell from Knowstone. I am related to John Sainsbury via his second marriage.

Does this help?

Regards,

Philip

Sainsbury's of Deptford & Great Marlow Bucks

crsainsbury — 2009-03-15 13:50:12Z

I have traced my ancestry back as far as Henry Sainsbury 1817-1893. born in Gt Marlow Bucks and moved to Deptford after 1842. He was married to Jane Rockall born 1821 also gt Marlow Bucks. I have been unable to trace Henry's parents and i am very interested to learn about the origins of my family.

Does anyone have any additional information?

also does anyone have information on Jane's parents, James Rockall and Jane Rackstraw?

Re: Jane Sainsbury of Deptford, Kent, England

crsainsbury — 2009-03-15 13:32:37Z

Jane Sainsbury was the daughter of Henry Sainsbury (1817-1893)and Jane Rockall (1820-between 1861 and 1871)both born in Great Marlow Buckinghamshire.

Their children were;
Rose Ann Herman Sainsbury 1842- born in Lambeth
Henry Herman 1846- Born Deptford
Jane Sainsbury 1850- " "
Joseph Sainsbury 1852- my great great grandfather
William Sainsbury 1858
Alfred Sainsbury 1860-

I have been trying to find Henry Sainsbury's parents but the trail has gone cold.

Jane Rockall's parents were James Rockall and Jane Rackstraw. both born in Buckinghamshire.

hope this helps.

Can anybody help me with John Sainsbury, born about 1786. He married twice, 1)Martha surname unknown and 2)Jane Bucknell (b. 1801 Knowstone, d. 1849 Taunton).

I (together with a x times cousin) have been trying to locate John's birth and the details of his first marriage to Martha.

It doesn't help that the Sainsbury surname suffered different variations - Sanbury, Sansbury, Saintsbury, Sandsbury....

Re: Sainsbury's from Taunton, Somerset, England.

William SAINSBURY/SANDSBURY was baptised on June 17th 1819 in St. Mary Magdalene's Church, Taunton, Somerset, England. His parents are listed as John and Martha SANDSBURY living in North Street.
William's Father John's occupation is listed as an Iron Founder.
Do you have an actual copy of Selina's Birth Certificte?
Can you show me what you have so far in your SAINSBURY line so we can work it out the connection.
The John you had with Jane where does he fit in?
Is Selina SAINSBURY a connection for your lot of SAINSBURY'S?

Re: Sainsbury's from Taunton, Somerset, England.

Do you have any information about William SAINSBURY (or SANDSBURY, according to Selina's birth certificate of 14th Sept 1843) or his parents?

William was an iron moulder, as shown on Selina's birth certificate, and I believe that there might be a connection with my John SANDSBURY/SAINSBURY, who also was an iron founder in Taunton.

If you are not sure, it will help if you give birthdates of you, your father and grandfather.
