Re: WHITEWAY FAMILY - GEORGE IN ENGLAND

Hi,
In 2001 you posted the following:
George Murray Whiteway, father, born 1906, was a cotton yarn salesman. His wife Lorna Catherine Whiteway, formerly Harrison, was a housewife and mother. They had three daughters: Kathryn born 1943, Janet born 1945, and Isabel born 1947. I have reason to believe I am a relative of this family.
Did you get any response to George's details? If not I may be able to help at this late date

Regards

Kon

I am looking for information about Frederick Whiteway. He married Emily Bishop in Oatlands Tasmania. I have his birth year 1858 and year he was married 1881 but can't find his death. I'd like to know when and where he died. Also did he and Emily have children. I know Emily died in 1919 in the New Norfolk Mental Asylum. Please contact me if you have any information.
Thank you
Kerry

George Murray was born 1906 Prestwich and died 1985 Cheshire. I have his ancestry back to Kingsteignton in Devon. Much more information is found in my book: Whiteway: Roots and Branches available from me.

Chester was born/bapt 19 5 1908 in Murray River PEI. I have much more information on your ancestors. They originally came from Devon. I have produced a book on ALL the Whiteways and certainly those in PEI are mentioned.

I have details of some of your Whiteway ancestors. Fuller details of them in Newfoundland can be found in my book Whiteway: Roots & Branches available from me. I have traced the earliest Whiteway of circa 1740 back to Devon.

Sorry I changed my email to whiteaway219@btinternet.com some time ago since then I concentrated on researching and writing my book on the Whiteway which is now published.

There are so many interesting stories of all the different branches. I am still adding to my vast list of Whiteways.

Would love to swap notes, although all I know about Love Whiteaway is what I've read on Messages. This is the first time I've used this message board - is it like Rootschat? Can you send email addresses or is there a Personal Message system (which is private)?

annd175 — 2011-07-06 01:54:48Z

Hello
I've been researching the Whiteaway family as my grandson is descended from them. Thomas Whiteway (b. 1773) is his 6 x g grandfather. Thomas and Ann (Sins) daughter Lovey married John Thomas and their son Philip married Mary Hartley. Mary and Philip's son, Philip Whiteway Thomas migrated to Western Australia on the Belgic in 1913. Thanks to this thread, I've been able to piece together a bit more of the family tree!

Hi,

My new email address is whiteaway219@btinternet.com so I'm sorry you couldn't make contact with me. I have now published my book - WHITEWAY Roots and Branches - and it gives information on most of the Whiteways in the world, giving their roots. I am sure it could be useful.

SteveKearley61 — 2011-04-14 04:46:29Z

Would be interested in sharing any info you have. My wife's line comes from Eli, married to Jane Rose Taylor, specifically from Elsie Blanche Whiteway, married to Thomas Murray Warfield. I am actually trying to get the children of Eli and Rose correct as I have Florence, Effie, Stella, Elsie, Walter K, Robert, Hazel, and Alder. Any information on Eli's ancestors or his children would be helpful.

Re: WHITEWAY

SteveKearley61 — 2011-04-14 04:40:13Z

Was your Walter Kenneth Whiteway a son of Eli Whiteway and Jane Rose Taylor? My wife's grandmother was Elsie Blanche, who married Thomas Warfield, and I think she and Walter were brother and sister.

Bob,
So do you think my Jeremiah Ford is the son of Jeremiah and Mary? From what I have found so far this was the only Ford family in Western Bay at the time.
My Jeremiah Ford had some descendants who moved to the USA and settled there also.
Alice

Re: Mary Whiteway-Newfoundland-1780's

cookiejay — 2010-12-19 00:19:32Z

Alice,
Yes, this Jeremiah Ford, son of Jeremiah and Ann Whiteway and b. in 1844 is my family. Descendants of this Jeremiah settled in Glacebay,N.S.
Bob

Re: Mary Whiteway-Newfoundland-1780's

Alice_Hoven — 2010-12-19 00:02:09Z

I have an ancestor Louisa Walsh who married Jeremiah Ford born Western Bay 1844-1845. I found a Jeremiah Ford born to Jeremiah Ford and Anne Whiteway June 16, 1844 and was wondering if this could be the same Jeremiah Ford who married into my family. My Jeremiah Ford came to Fleur de Lys, White Bay, Newfoundland as a young man and settled there. His descendants are still living there.
Would appreciate hearing from you.
Thanks
Alice

Yes, I do have details on Whiteway/Whitaway however it is spelt in the Liverpool, Isle of Man area. But I have concentrated mainly on the Whiteway side - I have 7,000 names on my family tree maker. And I am hoping to publish a book on them. So I can't really help on your Thomas but if you want anything on Whiteway I can help.

Re: Whiteway/Whiteaway/Whitaway/Thomas, Liverpool & Blackburn

liz1453 — 2010-05-24 11:01:42Z

A commonly held idea of origin is that the name comes from Whiteway Barton in South Devon. There were certainly many of that name in the area south of Dartmoor, between Exeter and Kingsbridge. I think the variation in spelling originates before spelling was standardised when it was often written as it was spoken - try saying it with a Devonshire accent!
I can't add much to your Liverpool family at present but am doing a one-name study of Whiteway/Whiteaway and gathering lots of information so if you'd like to get in touch via whiteway@one-name.org I'd be pleased to hear from you.

Re: Whiteway/Whiteaway/Whitaway/Thomas, Liverpool & Blackburn

gfe55 — 2010-05-24 09:11:00Z

I'd be very interested in any info you have on the Liverpool/Brixham
Whiteaways, and your views on the surname origin.

I have found that Thomas, my 4 x great grandfather, was,
according to the 1851 Census, b. circa 1772/73 in Chudleigh, but chr. Brixham 1782, and his surname was sometimes given as Whiteaway.

Ann Sins was chr. 1779, and died before 1851. Thomas died after 1851,
but I have not yet found a record of this - do you have any info?

As you are writing the history of the Whiteways, if I can help, I will, and forward any further info I come across.

I tried to e-mail you, but got a failure notice.

Re: Whiteway Name

RogerWhiteway52 — 2010-05-18 10:04:17Z

The Whiteway web site on Compuserve 'ourworld' has been pulled, I'm afraid, along with all the other 'ourworld' web sites. Compuserve has allowed me to keep my Compuserve mail address, though.

Last time I looked, I thought the Whiteway name might be derived from the transport of white gold - salt. If the name first arose in association with Whiteway Barton (a farm near Kingsteignton in Devon), then there may be some support for this idea. Whiteway Barton lies on an old salt route between the Teign estuary and Exeter, in the north.

Dad's great, great, great uncle, Sir William V. Whiteway was father of the Newfoundland railway and premier (then called president) of Newfoundland, twice.

My sister has more information on the Whiteway geneology and I don't know all of the connections as it moves back from my grandparents, but I could get more info if you are interested. It may help you in tracing your roots.

Sincerely,

Hi, I'm a living Whiteway in Sheffield. My Grandfather (John Nicolas Whiteway) came from Exeter in Devon and before he passed away did much research into the family tree, which since has been miss placed. However I do know that there was Whiteway's cider if this is any help and also they used to own the pub in East Allington (Fortesque Arms - I think!) anyway if you find anything else out don't heistate to contact me! - cl_la_03@hotmail.com

Do you have any more information on your father (and grandfather?) as I am collecting as much as I can on the Whiteways of NL, NS, and other places and trying to find where they came from in the UK. Most of these seem to come from Devon where I live.
Would like to correspond. triciaw@freenet.co.uk

My 3x gr.grandfather was Jeremiah Ford who married an Anne Whiteway of Western Bay.The Fords,Sellers,Doyles,and Whiteways were related through marriage.Was Anne Whiteway Ford the granddaughter of the original William Whiteway? Was Mary Whiteway(1780's)the daughter of William and____Perry(?).Can you enlighten me about this. It's confusing.

Re: Whiteway's

halebarn_1 — 2008-11-18 19:53:50Z

There is no connection between the Highworth and the Staverton branches unless it was long before 1756...and I am pretty sure there is none as I have found no connection. Although most present Whiteways come from Devon it does seem that other counties started their own families. After many years researching I have LOADS of info. triciaw@freenet.co.uk

Re: Whiteways

halebarn_1 — 2008-11-18 19:39:24Z

There are many Whiteways in Chudleigh - who came from Kingsteignton. The village of Staverton is another place that produced another branch. I live not far from this area and have researched this family for many many years.
Would be interested to have info on any of them.

This branch of Whiteways were sailors and some did call in to Ireland from time to time where their children were born. One branch of the Folliott Whiteways were watchmakers in Liverpool. I have details of a Helena Jane born 1895 in Ulverston but not 1897. The first Folliott was born in Dublin in the early 1700s, but they moved to Plymouth Devon.

Love Whiteway was baptised 12 Dec 1810 d/o Thomas Whiteway and Ann (Sins) of Brixham, Devon. He died in Blackburn. A number of Whiteway fishermen from Brixham sailed to Liverpool area in the 1830s-1850s and settled there. Nearly all descendants were involved with the sea and boats.
I am writing the history of the Whiteways.

Re: Whiteway

halebarn_1 — 2008-11-18 17:58:26Z

Ann's sisterrs were Mary b1769, Grace b1772, Elizabeth b1776, and brothers were Edward b1767, Edmund b1771, and John b1775 children of George Whiteway and Rebecca (Reap).
The father George was born in Staverton 23 Sept 1733 which is the 'home' of most of the Whiteways. I am writing the history of the Whiteways as I live close to all the places the Whiteways are found.

I have reasonable amount of information on my Bickfords in the 19th C. Also my apologies for not getting back sooner, I often away from email contact.
