Faulder Cumberland Antecedents
Other posts have made reference to the half-family arising from Catherine Blaylock marrying two Robert Faulders and to the intertwining of various families mainly in North Cumberland in the 18th and 19th Centuries.
This diagram (click on it to see it full size) shows some of the links that have been established.

Willett Antecedents
The early Willetts take a bit of disentangling due to second marriages and marriages to other Willetts. What follows is a summary; there is a more detailed explanation with references on another post. (more…)

Inter-relationships of other surnames marrying into the Family
Investigating other surnames marrying into the Family – particularly where there are two people of a particular surname marrying in – raising the question as to whether they are related.
- Forster surnames: Annie (m Joseph Faulder 1919), Eliza (m Edward Norman 1856)
- Graham surnames: Elizabeth (m George Blaylock 1828), Deborah (m William Faulder 1921), Janet (m Thomas James 1706?)
- Jackson surnames: Ann (m Robert Faulder 1754), William (m Hannah Faulder 1858),
- James surnames: Edward (m Mary Falder 1738), Elizabeth (m William Blaylock 1765?), Thomas (m Eleanor Faulder 1855)
- Pattinson surnames: John (m Catherine Faulder 1855, m Elizabeth Faulder 1859), John Lawson (m Mary Faulder 1900).
- Catherine and Elizabeth Faulder were sisters, and consequently John’s second marriage was, at that time, illegal. The 1835 Deceased Wife’s Sister Act (Lord Lyndhurst’s Act) made such unions illegal until it was repealed by the 1907 Deceased Wife’s Sister’s Marriage Act.
- Story surnames: Emily (m Joseph Sewell Faulder 1882), Annie (m Tom Clark 1929)
(Comments of the “Are we related” type (much welcomed) are being collated on a collection of “Are we related?” pages.)
Other Families which are interweaved into Faulder descendants
Where surnames crop up a number of times, I want to know if they are related to each other (for instance have two brothers married two sisters). This Chart of Surnames
shows how some of the families are interweaved. (more…)
