About My Armishaw, Backhouse, Goldstraw & Knobbs Families
Please sign in to see more. Hello
my name is Vicki Backhouse and my email is vicki.justin@virginmedia.com I am helping to research our family history.
This has lead to lots of information being gathered on families in and around Staffordshire particularly the towns & villages of Caverswall, Cheadle, Alton, Uttoxeter, Dilhorne, Stone, Hilderstone from 1600 to present day
The ARMISHAW & ARMSHAW line has information back to the 1660 starting with Johanus Armishaw from Alton Staffs`s. Many thanks to David and Richard Armishaw for sharing their research
The BACKHOUSE family has been traced back to Thomas Backhouse b.1621 in Stone, Staffs. This information was researched by Brenda Backhouse
The BETTANY line has been traced back to the 1651, Rogeri Bettany from Dilhorne, Staffs, many thanks to Carol Bettany, Huia Mitchel and Philipa Lockett for sharing their information
At last I have made some headway with my mother maiden name of GOLDSTRAW, I can now trace our line back to Cheddleton in 1800, and we were a family of butchers
The KNOBBS line is currently being researched by myself Jean Kemp; Wendly Edley and Edmund over in USA
The SIMCOCK and SYMCOX of Caverswall. My head has been spinning recently try to fathem the in`s and out`s of these families. I think that it is starting to take shape now, a big thank you to :- Andy Bird; Emma White; Helen Amison; Karen; Melanie; Norm Simcock; Simon Hill; Carol Ann Bettany & everyone else who has supplied information
I must also add here a big thanks to everyone who has contacted me from the genes connected site, I have included whatever information everyone has been able to supply and as a whole it is really adding up to allot of interesting information, thanks everyone, keep it coming!
I hope that the information will be of help and interest to other researchers This is still very much work in progress, I am trying to add sources for all the information supplied.
