Shadwells from Co. Meath, Ireland

MargaretConroy6 — 2011-12-22 10:33:41Z

I am related to Shadwells who were born 1847 to 1864 in Gibraltar, Kiltale, Co. Meath. Some of them appear to have emigrated to New Jersey (South Orange and surrounding area) including Laurence Shadwell, Thomas Shadwell, Patrick Shadwell (he moved on to Manhattan, NYC and died 1920's). I've no proof that the men are my Shadwells, but mine didn't have families in Ireland and ages in various US censuses from 1880 match up. Laurence md Mary Anne Cooney in 1877 in Our Lady of the Valley RC church, Orange, NJ. Thomas md Bridget Fox 1876 same church. Patrick md Jennie McAuley abt 1890 (NJ?). Do these names mean anything to anyone? Thanks.

joan_darcy — 2009-12-11 23:41:45Z

it might be better if I could send info to you direct, my e-mail is ja_darcy@hotmail.com so if you would be willing to give me yours it might help. I have been in contact with other relatives of this family and feel that I cannot put on the net info that they might not like, so can I ask you firstly are you in contact with any other descendants, and if not and if they are willing would you like to be?

To be honest I think that most of the info I have is out there anyway, that is how I found it, but I am sure you would agree that to deliberately put out a whole family's history would not be right and that it should just be given to you. Regards Joan

Hello again Pamela, sorry to have taken so long to reply to your message.
I have been researching my son-in-law's family, Shadwell, and in those searches have come across a mine of info re other Shadwell families including yours.

I am quite sure that several of these families are connected somehow as if you take the 1881 census there were only 341 people living in England, Scotland, Wales, Isle of Man and the Channel Islands on census day, not a lot really.

Anyway, Rueben,

Rubing (Rueben) Shadwell was x 31st July 1720 in Caxton his parents were a Griffin Shadwell and Anne Rueben, Rueben married Elizabeth (no date) and they had 8 children, William x 1748 burial 28.7.1754, Elizabeth x 4h February 1753 she married Richard Laver on 23rd July 1775 at Caxton. Ann x 13th July 1755, Richard x 17th March 1757 married Susan who died 1827 aged 63, Richard died 1830 aged 75 at Caxton, Rueben x 19th November 1758, Mary x 19th April 1761, Sarah x 10th March 1763 believed she married William Howse 9/11/1789 at Bourn, Frances x 14th July 1767 married John Page 27th May 1788 at Harwick, Cambs.

Rueben and Susan (Susannah) possibly had 6 children, Rueben born 1796, William 1807, Frances 1786, Richard 1788, Mary 1795 John? buried 1809, Elizabeth.

Rueben born circa 1796 married Phoebe who was born circa 1796/7 died aged 73 in 1869 reg. St. Ives Rueben died 1868.

They had 9 children, William born 1817, Mary born 1821, Richard 1826 married Harriet Amos 19th February 1860 Frances 1828 married Joseph Childs 1852, Susan 1830 married 1864, John 1835, Elizabeth 1837 died 1871 reg. Bedfordshire, |Anderson Rueben born 1839, James born 1843

Now I have loads more but is this of use? and I do not want to spoil the search for you, if you want the rest just let me know and I cannot promise to deal with it immediately but promise I will get it to you. regards Joan

lesleydrake — 2009-11-08 16:50:29Z

Dear Alison,
I stumbled over your post while Googling Shadwells and really hope you get to see this. My grandmother was Doris Marie Winstanley Shadwell, your aunt. She married Herbert Theodore Mayo and I am the daughter of Pauline Mayo, their oldest child. Mum is about to celebrate her 87th birthday and is very interested in family history. I have the bug, and have just recently discovered the link between the Shadwells and the Winstanleys.
If you see this please get in touch! I have a tree on ancestry called the Gunn/mayo tree so you can see what I have found so far.
Best wishes,
Lesley

William R 8 Illinois
Adam H 7 IL
Benj H Bengermon 3 M IL (son of sof Newton Henry and Rhoda Cohea Bingaman)

Figuring from the fact that Elizabeth was shown to be around 25 in 1850, that would put her close to 10 in 1835. Since she was 40 in 1860, that puts her age back where it should be. I have her date of birth as June 21, 1818.

By the way, I was not looking for help, I was looking to help you. If you descend from Elizabeth Cohea and John Chadwell/Shadwell, we are cousins through Elizabeth's lines. She was the granddaughter of Hickman Hensley and Elizabeth Rentfrow, and if you have not already connected to the couple...look out for a onslought of cousins!

Effingham County Marriage 1901-1904
When John Richard Shadwell married for the 3rd time 1904, the transcribed book gives his mother as Elizabeth Cowery and his father as John Shadwell.

A descendant of the couple gives the date of marriage found for this John and Elizabeth as November 17, 1835 in Ewington.

Effingham Count History 1883 States: "The first marriage license issued from the county was January 21, 1833, to James C. Haden and Nancy Hesbitt. The next was March 28 of the same year, to John O Scott and Patsy B Parkurst. The County Clerk was very cautious about issuing marriage licenses without first having the parents' or guardians' concent, as the following will show:
'Mr. hankins, ples ishue my son fielden Mcoy licens for Marrige for I hav noe objections to the sam, Nov 1835.'
Again:
'Mr. Hankins, pleas to let John Chadwell hav liesns and you will oblige your friend. I kant atend to git my self. Richard Cohea.'
It is proper to explain the above by stating that Chadwell married Elizabeth Cohea November 19, 1835."

Hi Melody,

I actually was only able to trace my paternal side to
John Richard Shadwell and Nancy Manuel.

I am sorry I cannot be of more help to you.

Where did you find the info about John Shadwell and Elizabeth Cohea?

The trail sort of went cold on the Shadwell side of the family with John Richard Shadwell and Nancy Manuel back when I was doing my research.

I am still interested in finding out more about my ancestry.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
