Hi,

I've just noticed that the first Ambrose Homer (bpt: 27 April 1746 and buried: 4 May 1746 at St Mary's, Kingswinford) isn't included on https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =874732964

Is there a reason?

I think I have found a link!?!

Browsing through baptisms under St Mary's, Kingswinford and have come across Jeston's father, Joseph's baptism on 14 March 1721/22 along with his twin sister, Mary to parents: William & Esther Holmer, nee Emberton. Page 59.

Barnabas was baptised on 22 November 1724 to William & Esther Holmer, page 2 of Kingswinford Parish registers!

Is this the link, you were looking for?

I've had a look at your link and noticed: -

"Edited by Di 10/10/08 Don't know how this family fits with the rest of our Black Country Homers, but I'm assured by my informant that it does and children down the generations are christened and married around the Cradley area."

Is there a possibility that this William (born Abt: 1725) on this link: https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... ver=654924 is the William Holmer: 15 Jan 1726/27 • St Mary's, Kingswinford, Staffordshire, England
Parents: William & Esther Holmer. Source: Page 10 of Kingswinford Parish Registers.

also his brother, Barnabas Holmer baptised: 22 November 1724, both are sons of William & Esther Holmer who married on 29 Oct 1722 at St Mary's, Kingswinford?

I am getting so confused

This is from The article about Mahlah

We have traced Mahlah, also known sometimes as Amelia, back through her parents Jesse and Hannah who married in Halesowen on 30 June 1820; to Jesse's parents Jason and Nancy, and Hannah's parents Barnabas and Hannah; to William and Hannah Homer (the grandparents of both Jesse and Hannah, for they were cousins), who married in Kingswinford, a neighbouring parish to Cradley, in about 1755; and to William's parents Richard and Elizabeth, also of Kingswinford.

The way i read it is
Jesse was the son of Jeston, Hannah was the daughter of Barnabas.
It reads that Jeston and Barnabas were brothers with parents William and Hannah and Williams parents were Richard and Elizabeth.

For the life of me i cant figure it out.

I'm trying to decipher by breaking it down... and hoping it makes sense? :? : -

"We have traced Mahlah, also known sometimes as Amelia, back through her parents Jesse and Hannah who married in Halesowen on 30 June 1820; to Jesse's parents Jason and Nancy, and Hannah's parents Barnabas and Hannah; to William and Hannah Homer (the grandparents of both Jesse and Hannah, for they were cousins), who married in Kingswinford, a neighbouring parish to Cradley, in about 1755; and to William's parents Richard and Elizabeth, also of Kingswinford."

Traced Mahlah via her parents, Jesse and Hannah, to her grandparents, Jason/Jeston and Nancy.

Hannah to her parents, Barnabas and Hannah.

To William and Hannah Homer, the grandparents of both Jesse and Hannah, for they were both cousins.

To William's parents, Richard and Elizabeth, also of Kingswinford.

As this isn't my line of ancestors but sideways as a result of Jesse being the younger brother of Jeston, who was my 5th great grandfather, I'm assuming Richard and Elizabeth were the parents of William Homer b: 1725? on https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... ver=654925

I cannot find a marriage for Richard and Elizabeth on FreeReg...

Need to find the parents of William Homer, father of Barnabas Homer 1766...


I'm wondering who created this riddle?: -

"We have traced Mahlah, also known sometimes as Amelia, back through her parents Jesse and Hannah who married in Halesowen on 30 June 1820; to Jesse's parents Jason and Nancy, and Hannah's parents Barnabas and Hannah; to William and Hannah Homer (the grandparents of both Jesse and Hannah, for they were cousins), who married in Kingswinford, a neighbouring parish to Cradley, in about 1755; and to William's parents Richard and Elizabeth, also of Kingswinford."

I think it's best to leave it.

Is there anything I have missed that needs adding to BCC?

I think my brain needs a rest.

Move it to brick walls?

I have found the 'riddle' on: https://cradleylinks.miraheze.org/wiki/ ... _the_Manor so I may have another crack at it at some point in the future...
