More Children of Samuel Wombwell and Elizabeth Boynton

Staffordshire figurine, 1825-1835.
Copied from: http://www.staffordshirefigurines.org/
A third daughter of Samuel Wombwell and Elizabeth Boynton, born in 1794, was Mary Wombwell. She married William Gregory in London in 1814. They too must have been swept into the Wombwell orbit. When George Wombwell died, their daughter Eliza Gregory was the first beneficiary named in his will, receiving a sum of one hundred pounds. Mary died in 1880 in St. Albans, Hertfordshire.

The fourth and  final daughter of Samuel Wombwell was Sarah. She married John Redhouse and appears to have stayed in the Wombwell Essex homelands.

Samuel Wombwell and Elizabeth Boynton also had four sons, of whom the most significant by far in the telling of this story is William Wombwell. William was born in Black Notley, Essex in 1790 and died in Hackney, London in 1854. He married Hannah Gibson in 1810, and the couple had nine children, as follows: 

i. Mary Ann Wombwell (1811-1881)
ii. Harriett Wombwell (1815-1890)
iii. Joseph Wombwell (1817-1873)
iv. James Wombwell (1819-1846)
v. William Wombwell (1824-1849)
vi. Eliza Wombwell (1828-1846)
vii. Charles Wombwell (1829-1912)
viii. Frederick Wombwell (1832-1869)
ix. Emma Wombwell (1834-1904)

    These children are all x2 removed third cousins of Hetty Jane Owen.

Of William’s children, Mary Ann Wombwell married John Posford. The lines that ensue have been researched in detail by a Posford descendant, and can be viewed along with a substantial set of George Wombwell newspaper cuttings as well as family tree at:

Further extensive lines have been identified from Joseph’s marriage to Charlotte Crozier, from Charles’ marriage to Sarah Nichols, and from Frederick Wombwell to Letitia Sarjeant.
