Family History, Onyett Chart 0400 Arthur Onyett, Annie Emmington, William Edwards and Sarah Ann (Slote) Slate

1871 Latisy?/Letting Fen, Ramsey, Huntingdonshire 1891 St Mary Road, Ramsey, Huntingdonshire. Arthur was a Lodger ate the household of a Arthur NIGHTINGALE and family 1871 Census - Mereside (Mile) Ramsey, Huntingdonshire. I cannot find any sign of an Annie EMMINGTON on the 1871 Census, but there is this family at this address which I believe is the correct one. Ancestry.com have then indexed as HEMINGSON, but it looks like HEMINGTON on the actual Census and in effect this in only a dropped H to make the EMMINGTON we are looking for. There is an Ann HEMINGTON in the family born in 1866, in Ramsey. I think therefore this is the person we are looking for. Her father was 36, an Ag Lab born Whittlesey, Cambridgeshire, his wife Charlotte was 31 and born in Reading, Berkshire. The children were all born in Ramsey, Huntingdonshire and were Elizabeth, 10, Robert 9 and Thomas 7, all Scholars, then Ann and finally, John aged 1. 1881 125 Gt. H. St. Birmingham, Warwickshire, Annie was a Domestic Servant to a William HAMMOND, who was 40 a Hairdresser and born in Huntingdon, Huntingdonshire, his wife Emma was 39 and born in Ramsey Huntingdonshire, and there child Purser HAMMOND who was 19 and an Assistant Hairdresser was also born in Ramsey, Huntingdonshire. There was also a Louise M SOUTHWELL, niece aged10, a Scholar, also born in Ramsey, Huntingdonshire. I have put down all the family even thouth Annie was a Servant because of the birth place of all the family. 1891 Kelsall House, Stalybridge, Ashton-under-Lyme, Cheshire. Annie was a Domestic Servant to a Bayley THOMAS, a Cotton Spinner Manufacturer, no sign of her son Edmund EMMINGTON on this Census, but he is down as being 11 on the 1901 Census. I checked this really to see if Annie had been married before or if EMMINGTON was her maiden name, I think, having found her in Cheshire in 1891 that she was unmarried when she had Edmund. 1901 Middle Drove, Lotting Fen, Ramsey, Huntingdonshire (Annie was a widow on this Census and living next door to William EDWARD who she married before the 1911 Census. 1911 Middle Drove Lotten Fen Ramsey St Marys, Huntingdonshire. With the family was a Frederick Harry HOBBS a Visitor aged 4 born Ramsey, Huntingdonshire. 1891 Old Fen, Ramsey, Huntingdonshire, with the family was a Robert MACE aged 23 a Lodger an Ag Labourer born Woodwalters?, Huntingdonshire. 1901 Middle Drove, Lotting Fen, Ramsey, Huntingdonshire. William was still married to Sarah on this Census but before 1911 Sarah must have died and he married Annie ONYETT who was a widow on this Census and living next door to William. 1911 Middle Drove Lotten Fen Ramsey St Marys, Huntingdonshire. With the family was a Frederick Harry HOBBS a Visitor aged 4 born Ramsey, Huntingdonshire. 1861 Holme, Northamptonshire. Father Robert SLATE (SLOTE)aged 25 born Holme, Northamptonshire a Ag Labourer, Mother Letitia SLATE (SLOTE) aged 29 born Witcham, Cambridgeshire 1871 Exhibition, Public House, Holme, Huntingdonshire (Holme appears as Northamptonshire on the 1861 but Huntingdonshire on the 1871) Sarah has four siblings on this census. 1881 St Mary, Ramsey, Huntingdonshire. Sarah was a Servant with a Thomas EWLLIS aged 35 a Farmm Bailiff and Merchant born Hinchley Mill Gorton and his wife Fanny L aged 37 born Ramsey, Huntingdonshire and their 7 children. Their was a governess an Anna J BELLARS and a M. L SLATE a Kitchen Maide forn Holme Huntingdonshire who I would think was the sister of Sarah. 1891 Old Fen, Ramsey, Huntingdonshire, with the family was a Robert MACE aged 23 a Lodger an Ag Labourer born Woodwalters?, Huntingdonshire. 1901 Middle Drove, Lotting Fen, Ramsey, Huntingdonshire. Although Sarah shows as SLATE on the BMD marriage I believe her surname was actually SLOTE, she appears as such on the 1861 and 1871 Census and on the BMD marriage for her father he is also down as Robert SLOTE. 1901 Middle Drove, Lotting Fen, Ramsey, Huntingdonshire 1911 Middle Drove Lotten Fen Ramsey St Marys, Huntingdonshire. With the family was a Frederick Harry HOBBS a Visitor aged 4 born Ramsey, Huntingdonshire. 1939 130 High Street , Ramsey U.D., Huntingdonshire. After wife Ethel there were 4 Record Officially Closed entries I found the following information on the The Huntingdonshire Cyclist Battalions Web Site regarding George ONYETT, I think most of it was given by Croydon ONYETT his son including the picture. - George enlisted before the 10/11/1914 in the H. C. B. directly from his home in Ramsey St. Mary's, Huntingdonshire. He enlisted at the H. Q. of the H C B at Huntingdon where he was a private, given the number 1022 and posted to C company of the 2/1st Battalion. For some reason his Huntingdonshire Cyclist Battalion number is a duplicate with another soldier, possibly a typing error in the original records / orders. Battalion Orders indicate that he was posted to the base depot B. E. F. France on 26th July 1916, he was rationed up to and for that day. Order was part 2 No. 171 issued by W. L. Stephenson, 2/Lieut. & acting Adjutant, 2/1st Hunts. Cyclist Battalion. The order was issued at Well Camp Alford at 8-00 p.m., 28th July 1916. At the time he still was a private in C Company of the 2/1st H.C.B and at this time was transferred into the Royal Warwickshire Regiment (T.F) with the Army number 30186. In 1917 he was in Stockport Hospital with wounds to his left arm and side [His son] indicating that there was quite an interesting story to these wounds, the bullet passing through his left arm between the wrist and elbow. At the time he was carrying in his left breast pocket his army issue wallet [which is in his possession] that was full of photos. The bullet was deflected by the wallet and passed along his left side. George always said that without the deflection of the bullet he would have not survived. Records also indicate that he also served in the Somerset Light Infantry with the Army number 266266. He was later awarded the following medals - Victory and British - c/2/102B13 page 1623. 1901 Middle Drove, Lotting Fen, Ramsey, Huntingdonshire 1911 Middle Level Drove St Marys Ramsey, Huntingdonshire.

NOTE - At the beginning of the line the name is UNNIOT and through the years it changes until today it is ONYETT. At present we are not certain as to when the name actually became ONYETT. As there are several variants in the spelling I have put the name ONYETT first on all the charts and then followed that with the spelling for that particular chart and indexed the whole line under ONYETT. ie ONYETT/UNYAT Chart 0700. The actual name as we have it appears for the actual people on the Chart.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
