Fantastic! TVM. Now I'm getting somewhere.
So now I've got the gals in 1851 in Brewood and corrected HEWEY to HERVEY.
Working on the rest now.
Tvvvm.

Nicola I don't use Ancestry or FMP so don't know what is wrong...have you tried using Mary Marshall's name instead ?
On Family Search..1851 has Jane and Janet 's surname as Hewey

1861.. Gloucestershire St Caths.Kingholm she is down as Jane Kerney

1871..Worcestershire Whistones she is down as Jane Marshall

Sp you can access all from Familysearch.org

Thank you both again.

And I STILL can't get up the Hervey gals in their subsequent census entries - is it me? Ancestry just doesn't cough.

Nicola.....I remember well the Dublin Soc.Ladies !! Had great full researching them back in the day...where have the years gone....TINE came to mind whilst I was up in the Highlands and Islands looking for something and the surname SINE jumped out ...never came across it before.

Thank you ChrisHo for that extra on 'the girls' and to Erin ditto.

And also Erin: yes, I'd seen those census entries for 'the girls' but really wanted to get them up for myself so that I could pore over them. Still can't get my ancestry to cough - are they under 'Hervey', or one of the other corruptions of that name??? I really want to see these for myself, if poss.

And Erin again: fantastic to have nailed my Jean Winning at long, long last. But - what on earth does 'Burgess and Build Brethren' mean? I must be terribly ignorant, I think.

And Erin again, again: 'TINE' has never really left my wonderings all this time, so I wonder why it's still in your helpful mind as well? This weekend, I was tackling yet more family notes which have been buried under so much 'stuff' and I found that my dear Great Aunt [died a few years ago aged 104 and the one who pulled together so much of the notes/trees/letters etc for posterity] has typed the following at the top of one of her 'trees':
"Col. H.E.D. Bayley (d 1916)
m. Frances Adelaide Tine (or Frances Fitzgerald? d.1914)"
and so on.
Now HEDB and FAF and deffo my Great Great Grandparents with lovely photos and histories attached. It's so unlike my Great Aunt to not know her own Grandmother's full name - she was sharp as a tack right up until the last and VERY involved in family matters. Nevertheless, there is a little clue about the curious word on the headstone which I had raised in my post way back in 2009! Still don't think we shall ever know the details behind it - unless, long shot, TINE is an Irish nickname/endearment/other ?????????????????? Frances came from a prominent Irish family.

Back to the expert, please.

Nicola'S Report 3 Sep 2016 22:28

Officially annoyed! I had carefully put together a lovely long post and it got 'absorbed' into the ether. So I'll try again now.

Thank you very much ChrisHo:) for the article about Ashfield House. I've contacted the present owners of this lovely old house and we have swapped our histories about the house. I love to swap these snippets. Am also hoping that the local archives may have more about the house ...............

I'm puzzled about the below which ChrisHo added at the top of this page:
"06 April 1850 - Manchester Courier and Lancashire General Advertiser
PARTNERSHIPS DISSOLVED
Hervey and Lascelles, Neston, Cheshire, schoolmistresses
(another dated 15th April, Janet Hervey, Frances Lascelles, Neston, Cheshire schoolmistresses. Debts received and paid by Hervey)"
Is this the complete newspaper article or is there more to be seen?
And the reason that I'm slightly puzzled is that the Head School Mistress CHRISTINA HERVEY didn't die until 24th June of that year, yet it looks as if the School was already in the process of being wound up. Perhaps her DC which I have ordered may shed some light on this; perhaps she was already ill ..... Will add the info from her DC when I get it.

I am officially going to have to more or less ignore the Marshall branch of the family as mentioned above because I already have so much on my plate to do with the narrower line. But thank you all the same.

I have all the Hervey Kibble stuff already. And as it happens Sarah Kibble and her son James are buried in Buglawton graveyard in the adjacent grave to my GGGAunt Violet May Besant, nee Hervey. We were clearing the Besant grave with all its wonderful engraved grave kerbs when we almost tripped over the Kibble headstone. Extraordinary. And that revelation led to me being offered the Kibble family bible ..............

Erin: the Marshall will proved by my GGGrandfather Robert Kibble Hervey, Barrister just wonderfully ties together all the research. He was a very good looking man - photographs prove this - and after his first wife died my GGGmother, he married his 19 year old Ward of Court when he was 70+!! After his death in Montreux, she remarried and we and them have been family friends for many, many years.

Absolutely wonderful to have nailed the first wife's name of James Hervie as Jean Winning. All my ancient family notes and trees do not name her and I'd always wondered what the name of my 4x GGrandmother was. This is a super piece of info. Thank you.

GlasgowLass and the Hervey sisters JANE, JANET AND ?MARY?: we knew that Jane and Janet were living in Brewood after the school closed down because, amazingly, they are mentioned in the write-up in the Cheetham's Register where their younger half brother THOMAS KIBBLE HERVEY was a schoar (and other Hervey's/Law's/Booth's in our family, too - a brainy lot!). The article was written by the son of the outgoing headmaster Jeremiah Smith and son writes that his father retired to his 'home' in Brewood and also that his father allowed two sisters of TKH to live in a house in the village also from "c.1848-c.1854". Isn't that a helpful piece he's delivered to us! But I cannot get my ancestry to find any of the Hervey sisters after the easy 1841 record; is this a case of the 'Hervey' surname being mistranscribed again? PLEASE give me a pointer on these so I can get them up for myself.

Thank you all, as always.
Am trying to add a big smile, but site isn't complying.

I'm back - sort of.
There is SO MUCH information which you've all uncovered and it ALL fits in with handed down family notes/scribbles/hand drawn trees/letters, etc.
Some of what you've all found above I had already found, too; but most of it is fresh and fascinating.

Like Erin, I feel somewhat 'beseiged' by all of this. I think that I'm going to have to bypass the Marshall's because although they have a relationship with my lot, it's just getting too thin!!

Give me some time to sort all the above out. Darkened room, quart of strong coffee, no distractions ........................

I may need several days on this one - current living family beckons.

1891 She is living Gloucester Tce Paddington....age and place of birth correct. She is stated as being "Daughter" to Head of family but only showing herself and a niece and couple of servants.

1901 She is stated as being a "Sister of Bethany" (Sister of Mercy) living Clerkenwell. ...again age and place of Birth corresponds

1911 Finds her living in an "Institution" in Christchurch Bournemouth.

There is a "Willie" Marshall b 1872 Devon living and working as a Shipping Clerk in Islington 1891 could possibly be Frank Wm
