Miscellaneous Facts

• I found an entry for a William Winstanley that died in the area he lived but this William died in 1874, before Eliza’s last two children are born. I am planning on sending for Clara and Ann’s birth records to see what father is listed and also sending for this William’s death record to see how much it matches up. Perhaps my ancestor Eliza had an active widowhood!
• Related to above: I sent for a copy of Ann Eliza Winstanley’s birth record to see who, if anyone, was listed as her father. The section for child’s father was blank, but the registered name of the child was Ann Eliza Lambert Winstanley. Coincidentally — in 1881, there is a 24-year-old boarder named John Lambert. I wonder!

Research Goals

• Determine the parentage of the younger children.

Just a note that with the wonderful help of the plugin creator, my links are back to full functioning order.

I’ve also been able to renew my subscription to Ancestry.com, which I had had to let go about eight months ago. I’m heading to Philadelphia in about a week or two for more research and I’m hoping to make either a trip to the NJ state archives or down to Salem or Cumberland country archives in the next few months.

I’m working on scanning documents and finishing off the people in this blog.

The plugin I use all over this blog — to link to places and people — it changed its format to link to each post and unfortunately, the conversion script to go from one format to the other failed to work. I’m trying to sort it out now, but I’m not sure what to do if I can’t get it to work.
