Megs Dicky Island Report 22 Jul 2008 11:42

Hi Glitter Baby

No I hadn't seen that one, don't know why. Looks like thats the John Mitchell I am looking for, he was my husbands GGG Grandfather. I wonder why they had sent Agnes away to Grimsby at such a young age, and why Agnes's niece Helen Bentham was sent to livewith her.

Still can't find a connection though for Helen's Mother Sarah and Agnes, thought they were sisters?

Thanks Gliiter Baby

Do you ever sleep?

Hi Glitter Baby

Thanks for that, the marriage for Eliza Rebecca Siddle and John Christopher Mitchell is definatetly
right I have the details, and witnesses to this marriage were Elizabeth Wright and Thomas Ringwood, John William Ringwoods brother.

I don't think this John Christopher Mitchell is Agnes father though, he was a fisherman. On both marriages for John and Agnes Mitchell father is down as labourer.

Can any find a John Mitchell with sister Matilda.

Thanks

Meg

Megs Dicky Island Report 22 Jul 2008 01:37

I have Agnes Ann Ringwood Nee Mitchell died 1976 Q3 Grimsby
dob 7/7/1881, married John William Ringwood 1900 Grimsby, father John Christopher a labourer, wits John C Mitchell which was probably her brother,

1901c Agnes Ringwood living Grimsby with neice Helen Bentham age 5. I have found a Fred Bentham marraige to a Sarah Mitchell but cannot find a connection Agnes.

1891c Agnese Mitchell living parish Clee with Weelsby with brother John and relatives Matilda Dench (Aunt).

As I have not found Agnes living with her parents at any time I am struggling to piece it all together.

Anyone help please.

Thanks Meg
