Thomas TEASDALE Yeoman [Parents] was born about 1626 in Of Dotland, Hexham, Nbl. He was buried 12 Apr 1721 in Prob Church, Slaley, Nbl. Thomas married Elizabeth ROWLAND on 20 May 1650/1651 in Hexham, Nbl.

Other marriages:

, Anne

BAPTISM: of Thomas Teasdale#537, father of  Samuel#126, was
estimated 24 years from date of 2nd marriage.

EXTENSIVE  GENEALOGICAL DATA RE THE TEASDALE FAMILY AND THOMAS
TEASDALE  in History of NBL Vol VI by John Crawford Hodgson, 1902,
page 374.  including his will and the following:

MARRIAGE: to Elizabeth Rowland of Dotland 20 May 1650 (or 1651)=
Thomas Teasdale of Slaley & steel-hall, yeoman. (Hexham Register.)

MARRIAGE: to Anne........(who) died at Steel-hall, bur. in the body of the
church 30 Aug 1724 (Slaley Register).  Hodgson's Pedigree shows
children descending from Anne and Thomas Teasdale

WILL reads:"1720/21, Mar 20th.  Will of Thomas Teasdale of Steel-hall
in the parish of Slaley.  To my dau Mary Mowbray, 5 pounds, and to her
children, Teasdale and Anne Mowbray 5 pounds apiece; my son George
Mowbray, 6 lbs.  I give to Thomas Teasdale of Slaley a close called
Strother Close; to the poor of Slaley, 20 lbs, the interest to be
distributed on St. Thomas's day every year; to my son Samuel Teasdale
300 lbs; to my grand-daughter Jane Caward, and to my grand-daughter
Mary Teasdale 200 lbs, if she marry with the advice of Samuel Teasdale,
her father; and to my grand-daughter Anne Teasdale, 200 lbs, on the
same condition;  my wife Anne; my great grandson John White, son of my
grand-daughter Elizabaeth White  5 lbs.  I give to my grandson Thomas
Teasdale, my lands (except Steel-hall, which I have some time ago
settled on my son Samuel), my moneys on mortgage and  silver tankard
and cup.  Proved 1721.  Raine, Test. Ebor.

BURIAL:  Thomas Teasdale of Slaley and Steel-hall (Brit Mus Harl Ms
1554, fol 29.) yeoman; (query eldest son of Thomas Teasdale of Slaley).
By will dated 20th March, 1720/1, gave 20 pounds to the poor of the
parish of Slaley, the interest to be distributed on St. Thomas's day
(Raine, Test Ebor.); purchased the Lee 14 Feb., 1693 (Bell Collection);
buried 12 Apr 1721 (Slaley Register.)

If he was born about 1626,  he died at age 95.

But the names of 2 of  Samuel's children- Elizabeth & Mary-as listed in

Still another factor to deal with in this puzzle:  Elizabeth Teasdale=
George White 29 Dec 1709.  "Teasdale White of Humshaugh, son of Geo
White. . .by his wife Elizabeth, sister and co-heir of Thomas Teasdale of
Steel-hall in Slaley and of Newcastle."   See pg 280 of Surtees v 124,
my WHI0459B.

Elizabeth ROWLAND was born in Of Dotland. She married Thomas TEASDALE Yeoman on 20 May 1650/1651 in Hexham, Nbl.

EXTENSIVE  GENEALOGICAL DATA RE THE TEASDALE FAMILY AND THOMAS
TEASDALE  in History of NBL Vol VI by John Crawford Hodgson, 1902,
page 374.  including the following:

MARRIAGE:  Elizabeth Rowland of Dotland 20 May 1650 (or 1651)= to
Thomas Teasdale of Slaley & steel-hall, yeoman. (Hexham Register.)

The children of Thomas Teasdale, as appears in Hodgson, descend from
Anne, so I assume that Elizabeth died before Thomas's first child,
Samuel, who was baptized  15 Oct 1665.

However:  baptism record of Eleanor Teasdale d of Samuel Teasdale (son
of Thomas Teasdale #537) baptized 28 Sep 1698 found on Parish
Printout of Hexham Parish, NBL.  The record included witnesses for
Eleanor's baptism: "(BRO.) THOMAS- (#my #553); MR. John Aimesley; Mary
Teasdale; & Eleanor Rowland.

Perhaps Thomas #553, was a son of Thomas #537's first wife, Elizabeth
Rowland.  Note the Eleanor Rowland who was also a witness.  Recheck
IGI.
------------------------

MARRIAGE: Thomas to Anne........(who)" died at Steel-hall, bur. in the body
of the church 30 Aug 1724 (Slaley Register)."

Thomas TEASDALE was born about 1600 in Of Slaley, Nbl, Eng.

Hannah COATES was born 19 Jul 1789 in , Allendale, Nbl, Eng. She married John WHITFIELD on 10 Jun 1809 in Allendale Parish, Nbl, Eng..

Misc.:  Hannah's last name may be Coats.  If so, she and John were
married 10 Jun 1809, Allendale.  From Allendale parish records. AND IGI
___________
BAPTISM:  (from Diane, May 15, 1992): "Hannah Coats, the dau of Edward
Coats and Hannah Craig was baptised 19th Jul 1789 at Allendale NBl.
That is the sum total I know about her."
C Minson had a b date for Hannah of 18 Apr 1761.  I do not know where it
came from.  It would make her 20+ years older than her husband and is
undoubtedly an error.

Letter from Dianne Hughes, 10 March 1992, "Tolloora" Kings court,
Teesdale, Vic 3328, Australia.   Hannah Coates and John whitfield were
her 3rd great grandparents.  I'm not sure of her sources.  She may have
gotten most of it from the IGI.

BAPTISM:  "18-4-1761" op. cit., 7 April 1992.  She did not include
baptism-place name, so I assume she is not using IGI as her source.

Dear Dianne,

Your April 7th letter was (and is) wonderful!   And the pictures----oh,
the pictures----They are priceless.
I get  a bit weak-knee d when I see old pictures like those.   Pictures tell
so much of the story, faaaaaassssssst.  I am so grateful you shared those
pictures with me.

I'm feeling a lot of conflict right now about where to spend family
history time.  I am pulled in several directions with many things to
do.

I guess your pictures provided the strongest pull today.  Perhaps because
they make such a clear "visual" attached to the names I am working
with.  I am especially drawn to the eys of your EDWARD WHITFIELD AND
SARAH (CHESTER).  They certainly give the appearance of intelligence and
discipline and culture.  I wonder if Sarah was gentle or sharp tongued?
Her mouth indicates both.  Edward looks like he might not have talked
much, but when he did, I'll bet people listened.

I have a xerox picture of my Teasdale and Sarah (Bell) Whitfield which I
will enclose.  Teasdale b 1792, was an uncle of your Edward Whitfield.

I've spent much of the morning entering the data you sent me on your
family branch records.  Thank you for sending such neat, easy to read and
understand material.  You've certainly done a lot of good work.

I keep trying to figure out which records you have gotten from the IGI
and which is your own family records?  Do you have a Family Bible as a
source?
===================
Here is one of the conflicts:

When I was at Ninebanks, West Allendale in 1987, I made a hand written
copy of the Whitfields from the "Parish register for 1813-1921."  Only
two of Edward and Sarah (Chester's) children were listed on that
register, which is unusual, considering the first four children were born
at Broad Lee.   Here is what I extracted:

Sep 7, 1849
Sarah, (d of) Edward and Sarah Whitfield (of) Broad Lee, miner.
and twin
Thomas, (s of) Edward and Sarah Whitfield (of) Broad Lee, miner.

You have listed the first four children as born at Broadlea, and the IGI
also lists those 4 children as born Broadlee.

However, there is a discrepancy  between the IGI, your record and this
record I copied from the Ninebanks register regarding the birth dates of:
the twins, Thomas and Sarah and the next child, Leah.

It appears that the person who sent in those first 5 names to the IGI
lives in New Zealand.  Do you have relatives in New Zealand?  Since this
is your family, you may want to know who that New Zealand person is.

AGAIN, it will help me to know: Did you get the place names of "Broadlea"
from the Family Bible?  And also the dates?

The lead-mining  map I sent you (didn't I?) shows "Hearty Cleugh" to be
north of Blackcleugh about 3/4ths of a mile, in West Allendale.

Do you have a good map of the Allendale area?  I have the OS Landranger
map of Hexham, Haltwhistle & Surrounding area.  It is an excellent map
for our purposes.  If you do not have a good map, I could send you a xerox
of the Allendale area, showing BroadLee, Ninebanks, etc.
