Thomas Bramhill

By Ann Morgan

 

My Great Great Grandfather was Thomas Bramhill – Thomas was a shoemaker.

 

My Great Grandfather was Thomas Bramhill (b. 1856)  whom I think married Ellen Featherstone (m 28/7/1878). Thomas was a Blacksmith

 

 My Grandmother was Elsie Bramhill born Caistor 1895  - she married Owen Morgan 17/4/1919

 

Children:             Barry    27/2/30

 

Barry married Marjorie (Jackson) 10/12/55

           

Children:            Anne

                        Andrew Richard

                        Gillian Jane

                       

My Father was Barry Morgan.  His parents where both dead before I was born and I know nothing of the family history other than the facts I have gathered here.

 

I am afraid there are no interesting stories re Australia.  I was the one to emigrate back in 1981 so it is recent.

 

Any assistance greatly received a.morgan@bigpond.net.au

Editor’s Note: We are still looking for the connection to the Epworth Bramhill family tree. Any information you can provide would be helpful.

Notes for THOMAS BRAMHILL:

I have the birth certificate for the 'Louth' William. He was born 8th August 1854 and was registered as plain 'William' . The father was Thomas Bramhill (shoemaker) and the mother Elizabeth (formerly 'Wright'). They lived in Kidgate, Louth (could be 'Kirkgate' as the writing is difficult to read).

I also have a marriage certificate for possibly the same William Bramhill (aged 21) dated 5th Dec 1875. His profession is 'joiner' and he married Sarah Ann Johnson (aged 18) in the Baptist Chapel at Louth. His father is shown as 'Thomas Bramhill, shoemaker' and hers as 'William Johnson' whose occupation is 'Superintendent of Scavengers'  - refuse collector in modern terms.
