I know there is a little town east of Kingston called Warburton. I don't know how it originated.

raywarburton — 2012-04-16 15:20:19Z

I think it was George Warburton who married Mary Chantler at Over, Cheshire in 1707.

The village of Warburton was founded in the 10th century by a Mercian queen to guard a ford over the river Mersey. It was a fortified settlement or tun named after a Mercian saint called Werberg (she is buried in Chester Cathedral). Hence Werbergstun. In the 13th century the lords of the manor, descendants of a Norman knight Odard de Dutton built a manor house there and began to be styled de Werberton. The last of that particular line died in 1813 so it is uncertain if existing Warburton lines descend from cadet branches of that family, or from other villagers who adopted the name (or both).

So was it actually named after my great-grandmother family?
I have been researching the Mosley side of my family (my father). I haven`t started on any of my grandmother`s side yet. I just remember somewhere (when I was young) hearing, that there was a town named after that grandmother family name. Thanks for replying.

Good, you've found the website. I would be very interested in your information. I note from the conversations that some of it is in Ancestry trees, but I haven't had time to check them. How far back in England have you managed to get. I had a quick look and saw the family seems to originate in Chorley, Lancashire.

I would like to develop your information into a clan like the ones on the website. It is therefor easiest for me to receive a GEDCOM. You could just send me what you have and I can develop it from there, when I get the time - I have a few things I'm trying to get done at the moment. Alternatively you could continue to develop the clan yourself and then just let me publish it when you are ready.

I try not to include living people unless they specifically ask, and I don't stray far from the Warburton line so my interest may be a subset of your total family tree. Converseley I follow multiple lines of descent from each ancestor so again our interests might not align, but I would be happy to work with whatever you produce.

Hi Nancy,

I don't know of a direct relationship. My interest is through my Warburton One-Name project and hence all Warburtons.

I communicated with Lyn Laponsee some years ago so when I saw activity on her old post I alerted her to it. It's nice to see all you cousins getting in touch.

I've followed my direct Warburton line back to pre 1600 in Hale Barns, Cheshire, and have DNA links to a number of other lines with origins mainly in the Warburton/Widnes/Warrington area through Y-chromosome DNA. About 30% of tests prove to be linked to me, quite high when you think that after 700 years probably 50% of lines have been interrupted by a 'non-paternal event'. nevertheless I still can't say if there was one original Warburton, or several independent adopters of the name.

If you check out the website you will see we have a society with occasional newsletters, and a private group on Facebook.

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

raywarburton — 2012-04-13 15:42:25Z

It's the other way around actually. The village came first and the name followed. The history was published in a book by Norman Warburton published around 1972. There is a precis on the Warburton One-name Study website, and a link to much of the text of the book online.

Yes, I received it - thank you so much!

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

1_knmartin — 2012-04-13 12:08:28Z

You're right, my Gr. Aunt Florence was born in 1885 or so. Thank you for responding!

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

LynLaponsee — 2012-04-13 04:25:29Z

I replied to your email immediately and sent a picture, I hope you received. Nora was born in 1894, she married Robert Hart Feb. 5 1916

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

LynLaponsee — 2012-04-13 04:18:04Z

You're right it's not the same Florence, Fredericks' daughter Florence was born in 1885, married Jack Brandon Nov. 20 1915

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

minky55 — 2012-04-12 19:48:54Z

I don`t think she is the same Florence Warburton. My great-grandmother was born in 1864 and died in 1947. They never lived in Canada either. They migrated to Pennsylvannia. We keep researching and may be related somehow though !

Happy Researching!

Thanks - mine is the Johnston and Martin Family Tree.

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

minky55 — 2012-04-12 19:31:26Z

Look on the site for Mosley Family Tree.
You will see her listed in there and aboiut 6 Generations of her children. I believe there is a town in England named aftyer the Warburtons biut I haven`t researched that yet.

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

LynLaponsee — 2012-04-12 18:47:23Z

This is exciting. I have a picture of Frederick and Kate taken from the newspaper on their diamond wedding anniversary. I found one son Cyril his children live in Oshawa Ontario. My grandfather Leonard married Katie Hancock they only had one child, my father Robert.

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

I just read about the project you're doing. I'd be happy to give you any info I have on the Warburtons in Toronto, Canada.

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

Good morning Ray,

I have a copy of the Census - thank you! I was wondering what your relationship is.

Kind regards,
Nancy (grandaughter of Nora Warburton)

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

1_knmartin — 2012-04-12 14:26:26Z

Good morning Cousin,

This is great information as I didn't have anything for Gr. Aunt Florence. Do you need any info on my grandparents Nora and Robert Hart? Can you provide me with birth/death dates - perhaps any pictures of William and Florence?

I've only been doing this for about a month - so much fun!

Have a good day,
Nancy

Re: Warburton families Toronto Ontario

raywarburton — 2012-04-12 14:25:01Z

If anyone is interested in Fred and Kate's 1911 census record (includes 5 of their children), or earlier ones send me your email via the Warburton One-Name Study website and I will forward it. It's on Ancestry but you would need a worldwide subscription I would think.

Re: WARBURTON OF TOTTINGTON LOWER END

AnnCooper46 — 2012-03-23 23:29:47Z

I had Elizabeth, but not the Scott part. Nice detail. My grandmother, Mary Warburton, was the daughter of Solomon Warburton and Betty Barlow. He was born in Harwood, at Hey Heads. The line goes: Richard (+Rebecca), John (+Betty Lord), (brother of your ancestor Jonathan), John (+ Alice Brige), John (+Eliza Howarth)

Too many Johns!

Re: WARBURTON OF TOTTINGTON LOWER END

AnnCooper46 — 2012-03-22 23:49:08Z

Hi Bev,

I'm sure we are distantly related, but I can't figure out the complete link. I have Richard (1716) m. Rebecca Magnall; his son John (1752) m. Betty Lord;John's son Jonathan m. Elizabeth ? then Ann Booth; Jonathan & Elizabeth's son George (1858)--then I come no further forward. (and nowhere further back0.

Does this seem to match?

Do you live near Tottington? Are you in touch with Christine Ritchie?
Best, Ann

Re: WARBURTON OF TOTTINGTON LOWER END

that is as far back as i have got. but all my warburtons are from tottington lower end, so maybe we are releated.

Warburton Family in Kanawha Co. West Virginia

wvbanjo304 — 2012-02-19 17:29:58Z

I'm looking for anyone researching the family of Thomas & Rebecca (Cobb) Warburton of Kanawha Co. Virginia/West Virginia. Thomas died in 1866, and his widow Rebecca later married Jacob Schoolcraft. She died in 1925.

Re: Warburton's related to Schoolcrafts/Burkeys

wvbanjo304 — 2012-02-19 17:17:49Z

This Rebecca (Cobb) Warburton is my great-great-grandmother. She married Thomas Warburton in 1854 (Kanawha Co. Virginia). After Thomas Warburton died in 1866, Rebecca married Jacob Schoolcraft, who was a descendant of the Schoolcraft family whose family members were massacred by the Shawnee in Sept. 1779. This massacre is covered in detail in Border Settlers of Northwest Virginia by Alexander S. Withers. Rebecca (Cobb) (Warburton) Schoolcraft died in Kanawha Co. West Virginia in 1925.

I'm always willing to help others. Why not... lifes too short not to share xx

Re: James Warburton

seeing the actual record is 10 times better than a summary on some screen. wish i had your genius on tap for my other relatives

Re: James Warburton

frithy — 2012-02-08 18:16:05Z

Hi Ray,
In this NEW FS, I've found lots that dont show up in search. I always start with no names etc & just go into SEARCH ALL RECORDS. Choose the ones with a CAMERA sign then browse All Records. Its suprising how many church records come up.
If you can first find the year in an Birth/mar/death then I look under that Quarter.
Whilst were on about Tips. Did you all know you can search the 1911 to find out who lived together in a house by adding a , or . in the "CENSUS REFERENCE"

Re: James Warburton

raywarburton — 2012-02-08 17:57:24Z

Thanks. It doesn't show up in a search though. I guess they haven't all been transcribed yet.

can't stop smiling michelle

Re: James Warburton

frithy — 2012-02-07 13:53:55Z

Just goes to show that there is records on that are not indexed. If you know the date & Church its always worth browsing the records. I've found a few this way.
Glad you got your copy Kate. Lovely to see the actual record isnt it.

Not sure if this would work.

Re: James Warburton

frithy — 2012-02-07 11:24:27Z

when you get into the Lancashire, Cheshire, Yorkshire, parish registers 1603-1910.
Click on Browse all images. then Lancashire. Then Manchester (St Mary's Parsonage).then marriages 1842-45. theirs 250 pages, put in page 102. & hey pesto!
I've also messaged you for your emails.

Re: James Warburton

raywarburton — 2012-02-07 11:03:07Z

I must admit I can't find it there either, even when I specifically search The England, Lancashire, Cheshire, Yorkshire, parish registers 1603-1910.

I also notice that the old interface seems to have finally disappeared.

You will find the marriage on FreeBMD and Lancs BMD. You can therefore get the license: 1st quarter 1844 Manchester vol 20 page 524.
