Mee Family of Heanor
posted on: 12/10/2005 2:39:38 PM

Hello everyone, hope you are all well, I am currently researching the Mee side of my family tree. I have researched back to 1813 when my gt gt gt gt grandfather was born.
I have found that
My great grandad was Frank Herbert Mee (born 1915).
My gt gt grandad was Frank Walter Mee (born 1891).
My gt gt gt grandad was James Mee (born 1845) and
My gt gt gt gt grandad was also James Mee (born 1813).
They was all born (and lived) in Heanor.

I would love to find out who James'(1813) parents were and also his brothers and sisters but i have no idea on how to go about this. I have been on the taghill website for baptism's but there aren't that many Mee's listed.
Does anyone know where the best place is to find out this kind of info? Does the Heanor Library hold copies of earlier baptisms for Heanor St Lawrence? Or would I have to visit the derbyshire records office?

Any info would be a great help.
Best wishes, Ally.

I'm afraid I can't help you with your actual question - I live much too far away. But if you find a connection to the Spondon Mee's I'd be very interested and could then certainly help you with your researches.

A postal query received by the Society - if anyone can help, I shall feed the information back to Phill Ibbotson.

"I am tracing my Mother's family & have them back to 1827 - John Mee of Loscoe married in Trowell; eldest son William married at Stapleford & his eldest son, John (my great grandfather), moved to Old Brampton as sexton & verger, later parish clerk; born Sept.1852; died July 1917.

I am anxious to trace Isaac Mee born 1734 baptised in Heanor."

I am looking for the parents of John Mee born about 1858 who married Sally Singleton on the 2nd April 1877. John and Sally had at least 2 daughters Elizabeth and Mary. I would love more information on both John and also on the daughters.

Found a John in 1861 who seems to "fit the bill"
Living at Nook End Heanor with parents
Samuel 49 FWK
Mary 43
sisters Sarah A 11(working as a stocking seamer) and Elizabeth 7
also with them was William Weston 17 who was Mary's son

John and Sally's daughters were
Elizabeth Ann and Mary Alice
Doesn't look like they had more children , as Sally was a widow by 1901

In 1891 they had a lot of people visiting on census night : Charles mack -commedian, Sarah mack vocalist -and a couple more comedians -do you want details of those?

It looks like 1901 Mary Alice was living in and working as a servant at Loscoe Rd for Joseph Lomax Miller and Corn dealer and family

I have the census information for John & Sally.

Its a small world, Mary Ann married into my Mums side of the family, but in the 1901 census Mary Ann was working for a member of my Dads, side of the family.

Thanks for the information.

Hiya,

My James married Emma Woolley in 1869. So sadly it isn't the same James, but i haven't got any further back then James' father, who was also James b.1813, so there might be a connection somewhere along the line.

I have however, found the marriage on the family history website. It says that James Mee married Catherine Gillott in 1865 at Heanor St Lawrence. If you find out who his father is, please let me know.

Regards,
Ally.

FAO elainebond:

I can't tell you anything new about John Mee (b 1858), but I can tell you more about the Singletons if you wish. They are both buried in Marlpool cemetery, together with daughter Mary Alice.

Grave 6054:

John MEE, Cab Driver, aged 42, Derby Road Heanor, buried 07/03/1900

Sally MEE, Relict of John Mee.Widow, aged 46, John Street Heanor, buried 25/05/1904

Mary Alice OXLEY, Wife of John Oxley, aged 27, Park Street Heanor, buried 14/12/1910

So there you have Mary Alice's husband.

come back to me if you want more.

kind regards

Howard

Hi I am connected to the Gillotts and the Mee family and read your msg. Are you a member of genes reunited? If so maybe we could swap info.
