Twibell, Twibel, Twible

 

Frances TWIBELL, christened 27 July 1797 in Thorpe Salvin, Yorkshire, was one of my husband’s ggg-grandmothers.

She married George BUTLER on 8 Feb 1820 in Thorpe Salvin; she died in Sleaford, Lincolnshire in 1885

 

Frances was the d/o James TWIBEL & Phoebe PARKIN who were married in Anston Yorkshire on 17 May 1795. (IGI batch M073862 - link to Anston parish records)

 

FreeBMD has 2 deaths of Phoebe TWIBELLs up to March 1841:

1. Sept 1837, Phoebe Ann TWIBELL, Southwell 15 pg 394 [this d/o John & Charlotte, below]

2. June 1838, Phoebe TWIBELL, Newark 15, pg 34

FreeBMD has 2 deaths of James TWIBELL between March 1851 and March 1861:

1. Dec 1858, Worksop 7b, pg 20

2. Dec 1858, Ecclesall B, 9c pg 169

 

1841 census:

Normanton?, Elksley

William TWIBELL, 25, farmer & publican, born Notts

Sarah TWIBELL, 6, not born in Notts [how does she fit in?]

Nicholas TWIBELL, 20, journeyman joiner, born Notts

James TWIBELL, 60, farmer, not born Notts

 

1851 census:

Normanton, Elksley

William TWIBELL, head, unmarr, 39, publican and farmer of 300 acres, born Elksley Notts

Nicholas TWIBELL, brother, 32, joiner, born Elksley

James TWIBELL, uncle, widower, 77, gent, born Anston Yorkshire

Sarah TWIBELL, aunt, widow, 71 housekeeper, born Forthill? (Harthill?) Yorkshire [is this a sister-in-law of James?, haven't found her in the 1841 census yet]

 

The search for James TWIBELL, born Anston abt 1774 - I checked Anston parish records, LDS film 1544931 and found James TWIBELL, s/o Nicholas who was christened 28 Nov 1773. Other children of Nicholas who were christened in Anston

Also found, Nicholas TWIBELL married Frances MAJOR, Sheffield, November 1772 (IGI online)

There was another TWIBELL family in Anston at the same time as Nicholas & Frances, that of James & Elizabeth (one family? two?). A James TWIBELL married an Elizabeth BASHFORTH on 18 May 1764 Silkstone, Yorkshire, England but I have no idea if this is the correct couple - still looking.

A search for a Twibell family with sons William & Nicholas of the correct age found the following:

John Major TWIBEL & his wife Rebecca (this is probably the John Mager, s/o Nicholas & Frances above). Did John die in 1825? There was John TWIBELL, of Forest, who died Nov 1825 at age 40, buried in Anston) Also, there was a Rebecca TWIBELL who died in 1832, age 52, of Normanton, near Worksop, buried in Anston.
