My father's name was Norlin Alexander Pikop. It is interesting that this name has passed thru the ages along with a number of other names. I have his ring with an emblem of a Roman type soldier.

Although thinking back Wendy could have been Martha's granddaughter my dad said. He thinks Martha's daughter was Joan (and married a Fairfax) and was somehow famous. Most of that side of the family is in Canada and has/had fish and chip shops dad says.

Martha Southworth was my grandfather's older sister. My father tells me she had a daughter called Wendy.

Hi Lynne,

Great to hear from you and to add Australia to my family tree!

To add to what I know, I got a copy of Jane Pickup's birth certificate and she was born 16th January 1842 in Leigh Street East, Ancoats, Manchester, to John Pickup, a mechanic and Dorothy Thornton.

She married George Philip Killick, a corporal in the 3rd Hussars, 24th December 1866 in Manchester at St John's Parish Church. They had two children: Philip Edward (1870, York Cavalry Barracks)and Florence (1972, Canterbury Cavalry Barracks).

Now I know Jane's siblings I can start doing a bit more digging, although initially it was the Killick line I was interested in.

I'll drop you a line and let you know what I find as it may be of interest.

I have yet to find her death details as George died in 1975 and Jane then married John Mason, again in Manchester.

Was in Canberra 25 years ago - dare say it has changed a bit since then!

Will keep in touch.

Regards
Peter

Re: Jane PICKUP, born Manchester circa 1842

LynneSimpson10 — 2010-11-08 11:53:12Z

Hi there Peter

Jane Pickup is in my family tree. Her parents were John Pickup (1800-1861) and Dorothy (1802-1881). John was born in Hulme and Dorothy was born in Preston. As far as I know there were 5 children:

Elizabeth chr 21 Mar 1830
James chr 22 Apr 1832
Ann chr 12 Mar 1837 (who married William Orchard also a Hussar)
John chr 23 Aug 1840
Jane chr 24 Jul 1842

Ann is my lady and I have a bit on her. I think Dorothy's maiden name was Thornton, but I'm not sure. I have not been able to discover who John's parents were.

Cheers

I am also looking for the Pickups and also have Parks in my line. John Pickup b. 1818, Rochdale, married Hannah Lord 1840 St Chads. His father James, her father William. John married Isabel F. Crichton 1875,after the death of Hannah. Isabel's mother was Margaret Park. I don't if we have a connection or not. My tree is Katz/Meloche if you want to take a look. It's still a work in progress but I'm almost at a point to just clean it up and call it good. Thanks, Maxine Meloche

Re: Aaron Pickup and Martha Crabtree

debimaeyoung — 2009-11-23 06:00:12Z

I am getting back to researching the Pickup family and saw your posting. I have a typed paper (which I retyped because it was hard to read) which has Aaron Pickup and Martha Crabtree and their eight children. It confirms that Mary was married twice (Walton and Neighbor) and after her death her children were raised by her sister, Ann (Pickup) King. I also have a typed obit for her and her sister Marth. Let me know if you would like me to send you copies. I am descended from James Pickup, Mary's brother. If you want to exchange info, give me your e-mail and I'll send you what I have.

Jane PICKUP, born Manchester circa 1842

81hendhamvale — 2010-06-18 22:06:57Z

Hi I'm trying to find ouit more information on my great great grandmother, Jane PICKUP.

She was born around 1842 and according to her marriage certificate was born in Manchester.

All I know of her parents is that her father was John PICKUP.

Jane married George Philip Killick, a Corporal in the 3rd Hussars on 24 December 1866 at St John's Church in Manchester. At the time she was living at 13 Stonehewer Street, Manchester.

With George Philip she had two children - Philip Edward and Florence.

George Philip died in 1875 and Jane remarried, her second husband being James Mason from Sherburn, Yorkshire.

Accoding to the 1881 and 1891 they also lived in Stonehewer Street, manchester.

Can anyone help any further, especially who Jane's mother was and where her fa5ther came from?

Many thanks in anticipation.

Aaron Pickup and Martha Crabtree

pamela_baughman — 2009-07-09 14:31:30Z

Hi -- in tracing my Neighbor family, i've come across some discrepancy about the background of Mary Pickup, who first married Jesse V. Walton and then Jacob Neighbor. Supposedly Mary was born 1823 in England to Aaron Pickup and Martha Crabtree Pickup. I can't find anything about this , although I do find Aaron and Martha Pickup in the states starting about 1840. Mary married Jesse 1845, I think.

Another opinion is that Mary was the daughter of Edmund Pickup -- again, no documentation. If anyone has records of marriages, wills, anything besides heresay that establishes either relationship (or maybe another one!), please let me know.

thanks!

Re: Pickup, John, Annie and Leah

cwotherspoon66 — 2009-11-02 23:19:03Z

Sue,

Have ascertained through Free BMD Marriage Index, Annie's name was:
Annie Beaton Whitworth. Whitworth was her maiden name. Maybe Beaton was her mother's name? Her parents: James and Margaretta, both born in Ashton-Under-Lyne. (See 1881 Leeds Census.)

John is on Farnworth 1881 Census, 10 yrs.old, b Prescot and 1871 Pilkington Census, 5 months old.

Marriage was within June 1895 period Index #: Oldham 8d 999

Also have John's Birth Certificate, obtained several years ago, born October 13, 1870 in Prescot.

Please contact me direct.

cwotherspoon66 — 2009-10-21 01:27:33Z

Sue,

Re your Oct 20, 2007 ancestry message, hope this reaches you after all this time. Please check my ancestry message dated Sept. 10, 2009, and the replies. If unable, you might want to check rootsweb.

You had stated you weren't aware of your grandmother Leah Pickup's mother Annie's maiden name. Have you found it now? Has anyone in your family searched Free BMD for hers and John Pickup's marriage date? That could give a variety of possible maiden names, plus other family info.

I did a Free BMD search and found:
John Pickup and Ann LAW m Sept 1853 8e 166
John Pickup and Mary ANN FOX m Sept 1852 8e 343 Blackburn
John Pickup and Mary ANN BARNES m Sept 1852 8e 191 Haslingden

John Pickup and Ann LEE m Dec 1851 21 678 Rochdale
John Pickup and Ann FIELDING m Dec 1851 21 10 Blackburn
John Pickup and Ann THOMPSON m Dec. 1851 21 10 Blackburn
John Pickup and Ann MCTIERNAN m Mar 1851 21 95 Bolton
John Pickup and Ann GRIMSHAW m Sept 1849 21 211 Bury
John Pickup and Mary ANN Brierley m Sept. 1849 21 580 Rochdale

John Pickup and Mary ANN Spencer m Sept. 1849 21 361 Haslingden

An 1851 Census also shows:
John Pickup "son-in-law 25 yrs. b abt 1826 in Newchurch, Lancs." and,
Mary ANN "daughter (wife) 22 yrs. b abt 1829 in Newchurch, Lancs." THEY ARE LIVING WITH HER FAMILY, THE SPENCERS.

Are any of these your Annie's marriage or Census?

If you get this, I would like to contact you further please.

cwotherspoon66 — 2009-09-17 01:36:58Z

Have received John George's family info from Kathy, which includes your grandfather Thomas, John George's son.

These appear to be two different families, but because they have the same name and are in the same general geological area, same generation, I suspect they might be cousins. However, all the info I have is given on my original message, so I know nothing of your grandfather Thomas unfortunately. When I check Kathy's list further, I may find something.

Re: John George Pickup b 1876:w.Jane Haworth-Crawshawbooth

cwotherspoon66 — 2009-09-15 00:24:17Z

This is a family I'm ressearching who appears to be connected to ours which is separate from your family. This family have given names and a photo of five generations, two of them being John George and Herbert. Since this is a missing link in our family, I thought I'd try John George and Jane because I see Haworth often in records I'm searching in our family's area.

So, no known connection with my family or this other family I'm reserching, to John Ashworth, Nellie, George or Jean. Where and when were they born please? Can you give me previous generations names, birthplaces in your family?

I've just researched more of the microfilm and Pickup and Haworth are all through it, in our family's area. There may be a connection. But to go further, emailing would be best. Can you let me know where to email you. t\Thanks.

mstephenson118 — 2009-09-03 17:58:31Z

I know very little about the Pickup side of my family. My grandmother was Leah Pickup ( born Barnsley ). Apparently her parents were called John and Annie. I don`t know if she had any brothers - I think she had a sister that was killed crossing the road in Leeds. I think John and Annie lived in South Kirby, Liverpool at the beginning of the 19th C. I have found however a George Pickup on the commonwealth war graves memorial web site who was killed in WW1. His parents were called John and Annie and they came from a place in Liverpool very near to South Kirby - could it be same people ? Any help much appreciated, regards Mark S.

Any further information on this branch of the Pickup family would be greatly appreciated and any confirmation that the above is correct.Regards, Mark S.

If you check previous messages, starting iwht the message you posted you should come to a George William Pickup married to a Jemima Jan Mitchell Lucas. They had a son John born in Prescot - would this be our G Grandad - ie. Leahs father ? How have you manged to prove that John and Annie are Leahs parents ?

I have this family linked to my tree (by some means that I can't remember at the moment) with another 4 children. I would be delighted to share information with you, but the only problem is; my tree is on the Genes Reunited website, not Ancestry. If you can contact me through the Genes site, I may be able to help you.

Hi Helen,
I think that you are confused about the Pickup family.
Let me try to explain:-
George Pickup married Mary Emma Hacking and had 7 children,they were John George,Robert,Mary Ellen,William,Joseph Edgar,Jemima,and Tom (not Thomas!)

John George married Jane Haworth and they had 8 children,one of whom, John Ashworth married Betty,had 2 children, John Michael and Judith Ann,and then emigrated to Canada in 1952.

Is that better ?

By the way, who are Kathy and Carolyn, and how do you all fit into the greater plan ??

Just come across your message of years ago.
John George Pickup married Jane Haworth 1877 at Haslingden.
John George died 4/1/1943 and Jane died 1/1/1940.
They had 4 children, John Ashworth, George, Nellie, and Jean,but we didn't know of Herbert.
I am the grandson of John George's youngest brother, Tom, who was born in 1894 and died in 1956.
Are you by any chance related to John Michael or Judith Ann ?

Am trying to find info on Herbert b 1901 to John George Pickup and Jane Haworth at Crawshawbooth. Great to hear you are of this family. Can you go back further in your family with birthdates, birth places, parents, etc.? I only have the info I gave on my original message and am looking for a tie-in to our, and another family.

Would be good to email you direct re more questions, info I have if possible. I'm searching "Goodshaw" microfilm and there's lots of info on it re Pickup, Haworth names. Higher Booths is also included in the Goodshaw District. It may be possible to find more answers there.

My question concerns Herbert b 1901 for the moment, but this family may be related to some of the famillies I'm researching. Do you have any information on Herbert please?

Don't have the documents in front of me at the moment, but I may have found the parish record of John George's and Jane Haworth's child's baptism on microfilm I've been searching. This film is on Goodshaw District and includes Crawshawbooth. Can we talk further?
