Hi SallyJo,

Yes, Ann MABBBOT of Redmile was the widow of Edward. He died 14 Feb 1901 in
an accident with his hay cart. I have copies of the newspaper reports of
the inquest, which are full of detail, even verbatim accounts of witnesses'
evidence.

Ann was a BIRCH, a family who were tenant farmers of the Duke of Rutland for
many generations. Edward was born in Carlton Scroop, Lincs, in 1851, the
son of Edward, who in the 1851 Census said he was born c1806 at "Debdill
Barr", Nottingham. I have not yet found where this place is and I have
tried! Edward Sr was the son of Richard Mabbbot and his wife, Elizabeth.
Richard died in Carlton Scroop in 1837, aged 73.

I know a great deal about the BIRCHes but am stuck on the MABBOTTs. Ann and
Edward were my hsuband's gt-grandparents.

I expect the link you found to Ann on the 1901 Census was on Linda
Brockway's website. Linda lives in Redmile and is a hugely enthusiastic
family and village historian and I know her quite well. Any information she
posts will have been checked properly and can therefore be believed. She is
a stickler for accuracy. Redmile is a village close to Grantham, Lincs,
although it is in Leicestershire. It is close to the border of 3 counties,
Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire and Lincolnshire, and just a mile up the
road is Belvoir Castle, seat of the Dukes of Rutland.

Perhaps I should do a Google for more Mabbotts?

Thanks, Sally Jo.

Lesley

links!

were from subjects in England and in Canada. If anyone out there has some
extra time, go to google.com and then type in Mabbott and see for yourself.
If you find something interesting, please let the rest of us know.

there "across the pond", but have not idea where. It ists a Ann Mabbott,
age 45 as head of household. Lesley, do you know anything about this census
or this place?
