The Willetts of Colchester, Essex (and Daylight Saving) 2 of 2

Filed under: Box,Consanguinity,England,Interweaved Families,Status: Update as Information Arises,Uncategorized,Willett — Tags: , , , , , , — David @ 1:39 am

I have split my current discussion of the Willetts of Colchester into two posts:

  1. (Previous Post) How I am related (through an adoptive line) to the William Willett of Daylight saving fame. He is my Great Great Uncle, so I need to trace back to his father (also William Willett) and thence to him.
  2. (This Post) Checking out the structure of the family at the beginning of the 19th Century (William Willett,  the elder’s ancestors). Hopefully this will provide a few hooks for those who think they are related to the Colchester Willetts.

This article is fairly long and detailed – a briefer post about Willett Antecedents summarises some of the relationships.

This post is in response to comments about possible relationships between the Willetts (from Colchester – as researched elsewhere on this website) and a line of Willetts who appear to come from Abingdon, Berkshire.

Are We Related: Willetts of Essex and of Kent

Filed under: Are We Related,England,Willett — Tags: , , , — David @ 8:55 pm

This post is in response to a comment from Eve Thirkle.

I happened across your family tree of Josiah Box and Elizabeth Stiles when researching my Kreamer family line (my father’s line) and was amazed to discover a link to the Willett family (my mother’s line) – still need to see whether it is the same families and where the link occurs if there is one but thank you for publishing the tree.

This post addresses the second relationship – between the Eve Thirkle’s Willett ancestors and the Willett family (which has been traced back to Colchester, Essex). (more…)

Are We Related: Norman

Filed under: Are We Related,Norman,Status: Update as Information Arises — David @ 7:56 pm

The purpose of this post is to collate comments of a “Are We Related .. to the Norman family (as detailed on this blog)”. This is one of a group of pages collating “Are we related” type comments, which are intended to either:

  • document how we are in fact related, or
  • collate remarks about non-relations to act as a point of reference for other families which may, in this case, share the Norman surname.

Where comments have been moved from another post I have inserted a reference to the original post. I have also inserted a summary and link to any work I have done on the suggested relationships.

Are We Related: Index

Filed under: Are We Related,Faulder,Norman,Status: Update as Information Arises,Willett — David @ 3:27 pm

The one of the most common types of comment I get on this website is of the “are we related?” type. Sometimes we are, sometimes we’re not! If we are we can exchange research; if not we can at least be clear about how we are not related.

The purpose of these posts therefore is to try and collate such queries and either:

  • document how we are in fact related, or
  • collate remarks about non-relations to act as a point of reference for other families which whilst unrelated may still share a surname.

A status of “Unrelated”, of course, is subject to revision by further research and discoveries – usually of earlier ancestors.
