    Will
    After a bequest of wearing apparel and linen to her daughter Elizabeth, wife of William WHITTLESEY, Mary left her property to her son Robert who was also the executor.
    Information from Croydon ONYETT 1/5/2006
    The informant and present at the death of your Mary LEAKE was one Lydia GALLEY.
    On the 3rd. November 1867 at St. James Westminster, Middlesex, Jane GALEY, daughter of Lydia, married Charles ONYETT of Pidley.
  3. 1811 Manea, Cambridgeshire
    1830 Pigot Directory 1830 People And Tradesman lists: Thomas WHEATON, Butcher, Slade End, Chatteris, Cambridgeshire

    1841 Park Street, Chatteris, Cambridgeshire
    1851 Park, Chatteris, Cambridgeshire. Also in property was Henry COOK and his wife
    Will
    - to wife Martha; household furniture, plate, pictures, china, linen and rest of personal estate
    - property in Manea to be sold, debts to be paid and residue to wife
    - property in Park Street, Chatteris to wife for her life
    - after decease of wife property to go to sister Elizabeth WHITTLESEY which includes 6 tenements, yard, stables, etc
    - £50 to brother William as long as he comes to England from America to collect it
    - £10 to each of the five eldest children of Richard MADDISON of Godmanchester
    - wife to be executor
    Bastardy Claim
    It would seem that Thomas was alleged to be the father of a Thomas Wheaton WILSON, born 6th June 1811, baptised on the 25th August 1811 in Chatteris, son of Mary WILSON. The matter went before the Churchwardens and Overseers of the Poor of the parish of Chatteris on the 8th April and the 15th July 1812. It would seem likely that no conclusion was reached about the accusation by Mary WILSON against Thomas for the result of the enquiry was "No order made herein".

    Hello there!
    I thought you might like to know that Thomas and Martha WHEATON were witnesses at the marriage of Richard MATSON to Ann GADSBY (my relative). Also, they (Richard and Ann) clearly thought so much of Thomas that they named one of their sons Thomas Wheaton MATSON. That carried on throughout their lifetimes as Richard was an executor of their wills.
    Regards, Fiona

    From the information on this census it could be that before 1841 William had married, had two children, John (1835) and William (1838) and that his wife had died before 1841. At present no information has been found for this William and his children on the 1851 census.

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.
