the Mastel and Appleby
families
Fourth
Generation (3 x Great Grandparents)
Joseph
Appleby’s father was probably Charles Appleby a wheelwright
Still
looking for Joseph Appleby's birth and confirmation that his father was in fact
Charles Appleby, wheelwright, as stated on Joseph's marriage certificate.
There were Applebys who were wheelwrights living in the St Pancras district in
the 1841 and 1871 census – Samuel Appleby would have been born about 1800 –
could he be a son of Charles Appleby wheelwright?
He died in 1869 dec Pancras 1b 28 age 72 – have copy of his will.
[find
his birth and marriage]
Samuel
Appleby was married to Elizabeth (nee Goss?) who died 1878 sep Islington 1b 214
age 77. Their children were Samuel
(born about 1825), Henry (born about 1829) and Frederick (born about 1837).
A
Charles James Applebee was born about 1786 and chr 7 may 1786 at St Sepulchre,
father Charles, mother Mary.
[check this record at Guildhall Library]
A
Charles Appleby married Sarah Finch 30 jan 1831 at St Geo. The Martyr Southwark
A
Charles Appleby married Mary Langon 29 Sep 1842 Old Church St Pancras
also
a Charles Appleby, wheelwright appeared in 1871 census at Chelmsford, aged 85
yrs (birth date would have been about 1786) acc to census, he was born in Dedham
Essex – however, he appears to have spent his entire life in Essex so is
unlikely to be Joseph’s father.
In
the 1871 census,
the above Charles Appleby was aged 85 and living in the Almshouses at Moulsham,
Chelmsford Essex (RG10/1662 f 149). This
Charles Applebee died in [1872 jun Chelmsford 4a 117] aged 86 years
William

10 dec 1791, chr 26 dec 1791 at St Leonard’s Shoreditch, father Francis Nay,
mother Ann of Kingsland Road

In
the 1841 census,
the Nay family were living at Mill Row, West Haggerston:
And
at Canal Road, West Haggerston lived:
[check
for Nay family in 1851 census]
A
possible younger brother or nephew of William – Thomas Nay was also a weaver
in this area about the same time – he and his wife Ann had at least three
children christened at St Leonard’s in Shoreditch: William John (1830), Mary
Ann (1831) and Ann (1832). However, Nay appears to be a fairly common name
in the district, and there were also a lot of weavers living in this area.

John Mason, son of John Meredith and they emigrated to Canada in the
1870s. On a visit to England
in 1911 they visited their cousin Francis Lowry (this must have been the

From an earlier visit (during late 1890s) there is a photograph of
Ann and her
children
(James John Mason and Elizabeth Ruth Mason) playing at a house in
London – the
Lowry children shown could be Francis and Elizabeth Lowry’s
children Francis, and Henry. Ann and John Mason’s son
James John Mason built the Globe Wernicke factory in Stratford Ontario
where young Walter Francis (John) Appleby was supposed to be going to
work when he travelled to Canada in 1913. He is an ancester of
