Thomas SKINNER/Elizabeth WEBSTER marriage Beverley 1797


 

I would like to place on record here the error in so many trees regarding the above marriage.

?

Elizabeth WEBSTER who married Thomas SKINNER at Beverley on 27 Nov 1797 [England, Select Marriages, 1538¨C1973], and who had children Barrington 1799 and Richard 1800 SKINNER, was NOT the daughter of Rev Robert WEBSTER and Ann MADDISON of Hull.

?

This Elizabeth WEBSTER¡¯s actual marriage was reported in the Hull Packet of 13 Dec 1808, which reads:

?

On Tuesday last, at Thornton, by the Reverend Mr MACKERITH, Mr. CLARK, of Castlethorp, near Selby, to Miss WEBSTER, dau of the late Reverend Robert WEBSTER, Rector of Thorpebasset, and Curate of Holy Trinity Church at this place (Hull).

?

Elizabeth WEBSTER born Hull 1777, who was the family¡¯s youngest daughter, appears to have remained at home to care, along with her mother, for the orphaned daughter Sarah of her sister Sarah HAWDON who died in childbirth in Newcastle aged only 18 in 1790.

?

Why she and CLARK/E married in Thornton Dale remains a mystery.

Hello Bill,

Would you by any chance have any connection to a Robert WEBSTER who married widow Ann/e ELLERTON (n¨¦e BODDY) at Bedale, north Yorkshire, on 1 October 1724. Robert may have been baptised on 16 Mar 1688, Bedale, and his father may have been called John.

That¡¯s enough mays, let¡¯s get back to April ¡­¡­.. if you have no connection would you know of another researcher of the WEBSTER name who may (again) have one?

Thanks.

John.

Sorry John.? No knowledge of those names or any connection to Bedale.

I have confirmed evidence my Robert WEBSTER¡¯s father and grandfather going back into the 1600s.? They were shoemakers, guildsmen and aldermen in Beverley.
