i wish you luck as there is very limited information available in virginia prior to 1820. this is due to the war or of 1812-1814,fires and floods,poor record keeping and deteriorating records due to age,and the civil war of 1861-1865. some people are speculating and writing information down as fact. james heptinstall married rebecca bohame/rebecca bohannon on27oct1727 in christchurch,middlesex county virginia/ some records state isle of wight virginia. one source states that their son james was born 04jan1727,nine months before they were married. another source also states that this son also married rachel bohame. some state that caleb is the son of james and rachel. some state that he is the son of william heptinstall and mary price/margaret price. my research found that abraham heptinstall was married to mary price. was he william abraham? some list abraham as the son of a caleb heptinstall. with caleb being born around 1730 and abraham around 1760.. who knows.!

Wonderful topic, please keep up the good work. I'm a teacher, and a discussion such as yours is already being recommended by me. Visit aldara 3m webpage devoted to aldara 3m. phenergan webpage devoted to phenergan. and have fun!

Looking for a connection with my ggrandmother, Janet Harrower (b28 Apr 1860, Tillicoutry, Clackmannan Scotland) and one Sam Heppenstall (no information available) Janet H had children to husband Peter Walls, a ship's fireman. he jumped ship in Australia, and has never been located. Janet travelled to Australia, back to UK and then had a few trips to and from USA. Family legend says she married Sam Heppenstall, with whom she had a daughter Kathleen (Kate). This may be the same Kate who married George Meserve in New Hampshire. Their daughter Louise's spouse is Mr Bumford. Anyone out there who recognises, any of these people and or events?

My great grandmother, Mary Ellen Canamore (Later spelled Kennemore) married a Wylie or Willye Heppenstall or Hepinstall in Georgia coming to Texas between 1894 and 1900. They had three children: Jennie (my grandmother), Jessie (Jessy) who died age 29 and Agnes who died in 1903 soon after her father's death. I am trying to identify the roots of my greatgrandfather. anitajl@yahoo.com

I'd like to introduce my new website: www.heppenstallfamilytree.com

I set this up to show my family, whom are spread all over the globe, my progress on my lineage. Please feel free to visit the website and see if you are related to any of us. Happy browsing! :-)

I may have a link to Esther Heppenstall. My family were master mariners in Limehouse in the late 18c, and some were also based in Malta slightly later. 'Robert Archibald' and 'James' are falily first names to look out for.

Thank you Dominic for your reply.

My Esther married James Wolferstan in Malta in 1835 at the covernment Chapel. I think her parents were Ropert (Robert?) and Rachael. No futher details.

They subsequently had 15 children

James Littleton
Sarah
May Emma
Alice Maude
Thomas
Maude Lizzie
Seley Marke
Kate Esther
Harold Littleton
Mary Langford
Stanley
James Gustavus
Plus two names unknown -twin boys, died in birth year.

All born between 1839 and 1859

My James Gustavus was born in Devon.

Hi Sue,
 
We seem to be linked other than one discrepancy - the number of children Esther had which is a bit puzzling.
Children of ROBERT HEPPENSTALL and RACHEL ??? are:
15. i. ROBERT A.3 HEPPENSTALL, b. April 29, 1816; d. April 1853. ii. ESTHER HEPPENSTALL, b. 1818; m. ? WOLFER, 1835.
Notes for ESTHER HEPPENSTALL:
Had 5 children, but only 2 survived.
 
Could you tell me if you are direct descendent of Esther?
 
King regards,
 
Dominic

Hi Dominic

This looks interesting. Yes I am a direct descendent of Esther - she was my GG grandmother. Her son James came out to NZ and he was my G grandfather but I never met him. His daughter was my maternal grandmother.

One of my aunts who is still alive is named Esther for her G grandmother.
We can probably piece together considerable information. We have letters and bits and pieces that fill in the puzzle a bit re
Esthers children - Jamses siblings.

Hi Dominic

Somewhere I got the information that Esthers father Robert Heppenstall was commander of the government Malta Schooner "Lady Emily". May have been in the marriage records. All a bit loose at the moment.

Hi Sue,
 
I have quite a bit of info I can let you have. The bottom line is I can take you back to John Heppenstall (born Yorkshire 1762) - master mariner - but there the trail runs cold. He was married to Sarah (nee Truelove).
I'd really like to go back further so perhaps someone else out there has some information?
I'd still like to figure out the discrepancies in the the number of sibblings but that does seem to be a detail. If you let me have your email I'll send you an interesting document.
Dominic

Hi Dominic

My email is sue.stewart@xtra.co.nz

I will send you some details re the siblings, also kind of verified by letters received by James Gustavus Wolferstan from family members talking about who was doing what. But of course they are Wolferstans.

As far as I am aware I am the main researcher from the NZ descendants. Of course there may be others.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Sue
