ellyssianTurns out Sir Richard Ingoldsby wasn't in the Wight line - nope, my 10(Great) Grandfather Ingoldsby had a 5(Great) Granddaughter Inglesbe who married my Thrice Great Grandfather Warren. It remains to be seen whether Sir Richard is the Sir Richard of The Ingoldsby Legends fame. Certainly, Thomas Ingoldsby, the writer of said poetry, is of no relation to anyone except Sudy Nimh. Well, that and the Barham clan, but if they're in my tree, I haven't found it yet. Of course, Sir Richard might also be *that* Sir Richard Ingoldsby, but I don't know - and at 1617-1685 that would put him at 4 years old when my 9(Great) Grandfather John Ingoldsby was born. The dates could be wonky, or, more likely, they're different Sir Richards.
Also turns out that there were three Inglesbe generations - the first of which was an Ebenezer - and there were three generations of Ebenezer Ingoldsbys preceeding him. In between the last Ebenezer and Sarah, there's an Elijah so they kept up with that theme.
Philip Ghost McFadden (1833-1919) was the inspiration for Brandon's middle name, although I knew nothing about Rachel Bates White and Rachael Kendal Bailey when we named Rachel - her 7(Great) and 4(Great) Grandmothers.
Although we have a lot of variety - and oddities - in the Riddle line, I haven't come across a Tom. Yet. Of course, I've got a whole subsection of them that I haven't linked in to the tree yet. They're technically unrelated until I figure out where they get plugged in. Anyway, as a catalogue of names that just might have once been in fashion I give you:
Great Grandmother Alcy Mae Riddle McFadden
As-yet-Unrelated Benonia Grant Riddle and his wife Mary Jane Poingle
Ditto for Damie Anne Riddle Phipps
Alcy Mae's sister, Edna Elvena Riddle Moyer
Another unrelated-at-the-moment Erastus Leyburn Riddle
Twice Great Grandfather George Washington Riddle
-and my favorite-
Twin Boy to Earl Riddle (who is not, at the present time, related)
Of course, there's also a boatload of Franks, Harrys, Josephs, Ralphs, Roberts, Matthews, Marys, Sarahs, and John Alphonse Riddles mixed in there.
George Allen Sr, with a birthyear of 1568 ties generationally with Sir Richard, but he's the only one with a date on him. Curiously, both his wife and his son also have good birthdates, and I was warned that Katherine was 37 years younger than Sr. and of the ripe old age of 14 when Jr. was born. I think they had different rules for that sort of thing back in the 1500s.
That said, there's probably a missing spouse and a first marriage in the one we found who appeared to give birth to her daughter at 8 - and that's just a wee bit young. Most likely an error in the records.
Oh, another correction from yesterday, possibly: Yorkshire, England, not York.
Anywho, 353 relations, currently, and we're only half-way through the one document we're working on, and still have quite a few folders, each with quite a few documents, remaining.
