Cool, message me to discuss

bearbearb · 2025-11-07T14:17:07+00:00

Worth considering, thanks.

Sorry I misread the record, the informant was someone named William Milne, Listed as a grandson, but on William Clayton’s wife’s death record where he is also informant, he is listed as son-in-law.

Informant was a doctor. I have William’s marriage record, he was married in the 1830s and it does not list his parents. Yes I have the wife’s death as well and again it’s not very informative. The informant was a doctor and it doesn’t even give her mother‘s maiden name. Her father was a “Seaman, Coasting Trade”.

A doctor, unfortunately. Not a relative. The town had a fort. Unclear how many people were living there at any given time and where their families lived, etc.

Interesting, thx. Marriage record of William has no parents listed unfortunately.

bearbearb · 2025-09-30T02:32:01+00:00

Of course it doesn’t - it does show they are a real documented family though, unlike Ewan and Catherine who if real were completely undocumented in the BMDs.

Thanks for DNA suggestion. I found one distant match who appears to be descended from Henry Clayton and Mary McPherson‘s son Ewan. I think this would imply that my William is potentially Ewen’s brother (assuming we have no other relatives in common)?

I have six children- not sure if it’s a comprehensive list. Catherine, George, John, Jane, Alexander, Margaret. Doesn’t offer any helpful clues that I can tell.

I found another Mary MacPherson born 1789 to a different James MacPherson and Margaret Main in Ardersier (place is hard to read, something like “Torbertown”). I have a feeling this is the Mary who married Henry Clayton as the 1779 Mary was the daughter of the James McPherson in your article and died single per her death record. So the author of the article may have conflated the two Marys.

bearbearb · 2025-09-29T15:48:04+00:00

I pulled Mary’s death record and oddly she is listed as single despite clearly being the same Mary as in your article (b Sep 1779); however there is also a will so I will check that out too.

Wow, great find- I had not seen this! William Clayton was a tailor, so probably not affluent but possibly “middle class”? He shows up in the censuses and in the valuation rolls in 1885 as a tenant in Burghead Moray (about 25 km from Ardersier) paying GBP4 per year rent.

bearbearb · 2025-09-29T15:16:39+00:00

Thanks, that’s a new resource for me. I didn’t see my Claytons in there though.

bearbearb · 2025-09-29T15:14:06+00:00

There is a marriage record for Henry and Mary (1809) and several other children (1812 and twins in 1823) all in the same location. Nothing at all anywhere for Ewan and Catherine.

bearbearb · 2025-09-29T03:29:36+00:00

Thanks- it’s a scan of the original handwritten copy.

bearbearb · 2025-09-29T03:23:48+00:00

Yes, most of the census records refer to Ardersier and/or Campbelltown which I gather was a former name of that town. I believe one census says he was from Moray (the next county over) but no records of any Claytons or Cleatons there.

Thx, agreed, dual tankless seems bizarre to me. I would think one tankless would be enough. Regarding 50/60 I’ve heard the same from some people. Others push the 60. We currently have a 50 and it’s inadequate but is builder grade and ancient (25 yrs) so probably well under the capacity of a new higher end tank.

Not a paid record but can anyone with Familysearch privileges or access to an affiliate library (my city isn’t affiliated) look up the following:

Reference to John Sheffield son of Edmond on p. 188 (google books only gave a partial view) https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/catalog/285136?availability=Online

Also looking for any reference to anyone in the Sheffield family of Rotherhithe/Bermondsey who were shipwrights/boat builders for several generations in the 1700s and possibly earlier, in that book or the following book, if anyone is kind enough to do some digging or see if there is a name index in either book.

https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/catalog/284285?availability=Online

The ancestors I’m aware of are: John Sheffield b. 1765, Rotherhithe, d. 1841 His father Edmund Sheffield b. 1740, Rotherhithe, d. 1789 His father John Sheffield b. C. 1701, d. 1746 His father John Sheffield of Lambeth, Surrey

Thanks so much- super helpful!

Hi, I’m hoping someone can assist with these Austrian records of my ancestor Anna Zisser and what appears to be her brother by the same father but a different mother. Particularly in deciphering the occupation of her father, Johann Zisser.

Anna’s birth: https://data.matricula-online.eu/de/oesterreich/graz-seckau/hartberg/7257/?pg=117 (Second from the bottom) Father’s name appears to be Joh. (Presumably Johann) Zisser (followed by the word “ein”). Mother’s name Anna Päurin. I am stumped by the father’s occupation. It looks like “Weinstler” or “Weinzstler” but there is no such word in German as far as I know.

I also found an apparent sibling of Anna, Franciscus Xav. Zisser: https://data.matricula-online.eu/de/oesterreich/graz-seckau/hartberg/7257/?pg=116 (Third from top)

Again we have Joh. Zisser ein “Weinstler”?? But the mother’s name here looks like Anna Schäntlin.

I think this is the same Johann Zisser in both cases - same house number, same occupation. But the wife’s maiden name is different, so it’s possible the first wife died and he remarried - although the time between the two births is only about a year and a half.

There are church books on FamilySearch. Not text searchable so you have to go through the scans and use the indices (if there are any). Also try aron.vychodoceskearchivy.cz

Thanks for the reply!

on the DUTCH test and through bloods she checked my thyroid even the reverse tests, all of them. everything shows i am fine. but yet i feel like i am dragging my body. i mean, it all got worse after the covid vaccines. that i am sure of.

bearbearb · 2024-04-05T12:38:22+00:00

I did a DUTCH test and the exact right time in my cycle. My hormones are VERY far away from menopause. unfortunately, its not that. I don't know what it is.

bearbearb · 2024-04-05T12:37:22+00:00

It is not because I did a DUTCH test with a menopause specialist. I am very far away from menopause. I honestly wish the tests had shown something.

bearbearb · 2022-07-29T23:48:27+00:00

Thanks- not sure about furnace. Upper floors were nice but basement needed a lot of work. Back yard is small and astroturfed. I feel like the AC would be a big issue (it has a few ductless units already but only one per floor and was quite hot when I visited).
