(131) was born about 1857 in Blaenavon, Monmouthshire, England/ Wales.
(31)(130)
(131) Birth date based on age
given on census, which is consistent across three censuses. David Nicholas supplied
a batism date of August 30, 1854, which is probably incorrect. In the 1871 census
there is a Mary Stinchcombe, age 14, working as a servant in the home of Thomas
Cox, a licensed Victualler. In the 1881 census there is a Mary Stinchcombe,
age 24, working as a servant in the home of Thomas Adams of Abergavenny. In
both cases, this isprobably Richard's daughter. Parents:

were still in Gloucester in 1834 (when Hanna signed the indenture papers apprenticing
her son William Witchell to her son Moses Witchell), but had moved to Blaenavon,
Wales by 1841. In the 1841 census William and Hanna Stichcombe are living in
LLanover Upper on the road to Capel Newydd in a place called Hewlstewy (??)
with sons William and John Witchell and Richard and Hammon Stinchcombe. William
is listed as a laborer. By 1851, William is a widower living by himself in Pwlldu
(Llanwenarth Ultra). He is listed as a Plate (?) Layer and (?) Pensioner.

David
STOCKWELL was born about 1815 in Dalkeith, Midlothian, Scotland ?. Birth
information inferred from Christening information. He was christened on 17 Dec
1815 in Dalkeith, Midlothian, Scotland.(136)
Parents: Henry STOCKWELL and
Isobel DOUGLAS.
Elizabeth
STOCKWELL was born about 1808 in Dalkeith, Midlothian, Scotland?. Birth
information inferred from Christening information. She was christened on 3 Jul
1808 in Dalkeith, Midlothian, Scotland.(137)
Parents: Henry STOCKWELL and
Isobel DOUGLAS.
Henrietta
STOCKWELL(20) was born about 1810
in Inveresk with Musselburgh, Midlothian, Scotland?. This information extropolated
from christening information. However, 1841 Kelso census says she was born in
county (i.e. Roxburgh). She was christened on 28 Jun 1810 in Inveresk with Musselburgh,
Midlothian, Scotland.(138) In the 1841
Kelso census Henrietta and her son William Archibald are living with her parents.
She is using the last name Hobson, though Henry is not included in the household.
Parents: Henry STOCKWELL and
Isobel DOUGLAS.She was married to William ARCHIBALD
about 1831.(139) Marriage inferred
from fact that William and Henrietta are listed as parents of William in Scottish
Church records. Children were: William ARCHIBALD.
She was married to Henry HOBSON on 4 Apr 1841 in Kelso
, Scotland.(140)
Henry
STOCKWELL(20)
(141) was born about 1791 in Roxburgh County?, Scotland.
(20) On 1841 census, Henry is shown as born in county. Birthday based
on age given in that census. Henry is listed as a barber in 1841 Kelso census.
Henry may have remarried a Jane Smith on June 2, 1844 (his first wife, Isobel,
appears on the 1841 census, so she was still alive at that time).He was married
to Isobel DOUGLAS.(142)
Marriage inferred from fact that Henry and Isobel are listed as the parents
of three children in the Scottish church records. Children were:
Elizabeth STOCKWELL, Henrietta STOCKWELL,
David STOCKWELL.
Mary
Idell TALBOTShe was married to Frank Olonzo WITCHELL
on 1 Jun 1903 in Christ Episcopal Church, Dallas, Texas.
(53) Children were: Frank O. Jr. WITCHELL
, Charles B. WITCHELL.
Abigail
TAYLOR was born between 11 Feb 1867 and 1869 in Blaenavon or Ystradyfodwg
Wales.(51)
(28)(17)
(75)(143)
(30) Mildred Taylor's 1996 notes give a birth date of 1869 and her
1997 notes say 2/11/1869. Russ Taylor's notes list Feb. 14, 1869 as Abigail's
birth date. Her age given in the 1871 and 1881 censuses is consistent with the
1869 date. Her tombstone, however, has her birthdate as Feb. 14, 1867. Her place
of birth in the 1871 census is listed as Blaenavon, while the 1881 census lists
Ystradyfodwg. She died on 26 Jun 1906 in Avoca, PA.
(28)(51)
(17)(75) She was buried in
Langcliffe Cemetary, Avoca, PA..(29)
(17) Funeral services were held at the Avoca
Primative Methodist church. According to obituary, Abigail was a member of the
Home Mission and the Daughters of St. George. Parents:
John TAYLOR and Mary WITCHELL.She was married
to John ATWELL.(28)
(17)
(30)(13) It appears from the
1871 Ystradyfodwg census that John and his family lived near the Taylors in Glamorgan.
He and his brothers (William, Samuel, George and Thomas who all appeared in
the 1900 Avoca, PA census) immigrated to the US in 1887/88 Children were:
Harold ATWELL, Janet ATWELL.
Abigail
TAYLOR(37) was born in 1845 in Blaenavon,
Wales. She was baptized on 18 May 1845 in Blaenavon Chapel, Blaenavon, Wales.
(144) Abigail was 6 weeks old when baptised.
She died before 1851. Abigail was a twin of Thomas. She does not appear on
the 1851 census, so presumably died before then. Parents:
John TAYLOR and Mary Ann VIPON.
Diane

Ernest
TAYLOR(145) was born on 17 Sep 1909
in Sebastapool, Pittston, PA.(28)
(146) He died on 6 Feb 1987 in Binghamton,
NY.(46) He was buried on 9 Feb 1987 in
Calvary Cemetery, Binghamton, NY.(46)
He was a Cook. Ernest was still in Pennsylvania looking for work when his
cousin Jim noticed an opening for a cook at a restaurant called the Busy Bee
on Main Street in Johnson City. Ernest came to Johnson City and took the job.
Prior to going in the service (during WWII?), Ernest worked as Head Chef at
a club at IBM. After returning from the service Ernest worked for IBM briefly
(?), and then bought a small restaurant in Binghamton. He did not have enough
business and had to sell the restaurant (sometime in the 1950's I would guess).
He then went to work as a chef at the county jail.
Although he did not finish high school, Ernest earned his GED. Parents:
Robert Witchell TAYLOR and Frances HICKS.Children
were: Melanie TAYLOR, Pamela M
TAYLOR.
Frank
W. TAYLOR (Private). Parents: James Ellsworth TAYLOR
and Ruth SHOVER?.
Hanna
Maria TAYLOR was born between 23 May 1864 and 1867 in Blaenavon, Monmouthshire,
Wales.(28)
(51)(30) Although the family
bible places Hanna's birth in 1864 (Mildred Taylor's notes, Fall 1996), this
would be before her parent's marriage. Based on the 1871 census, she was born
in 1867, and this is the date given in Russ Taylor's notes. In a phone conversation,
Mildred Taylor said the date in the bible looked like an afterthought. Place
of birth is that given in 1871 census.
She died on 20 Dec 1874 in Ystradyfodwg, Glamorgan, Wales.
(51)(28)
(75)(30) Note on pg. 9 of Mildred's
1996 notes, and a note in Mildred's handwritting on Russ Taylor's letter give
1874 date. Mildred's 1997 notes confirm Dec. 20 1874 date. Place of death is
base on the fact that Hanna appears on the 1871 Ystradyfodwg census. Parents:
John TAYLOR and Mary WITCHELL
.

Frances TAYLOR (Private). Parents: Robert Witchell
TAYLOR and Frances HICKS.She was married to
John George WHITTEN on 8 Apr 1942 in College Point, NY. Children were:

Kim WHITTEN.
John
TAYLOR(145) was born on 5 Aug 1914
in Laflin, PA. He died on 28 Apr 1997 in Vestal /Binghamton/Johnson City, N.Y..
John came up from Pennsylvania to stay with Mildred, who was living on State
Street in Binghamton (this was before Ernest came up from Pennsylvania). He
found a job at Binghamton Dye and Machine Shop (they made dyes for shoes). Bob
Ellis, a friend working at Binghamton Dye and Machine started Ellis Tool and
John went with him. Then John, Bob Ellis and three others started Four Square
Tool Company. John retired when they sold the company. Parents:
Robert Witchell TAYLOR and Frances HICKS.Children
were: Jackie TAYLOR, John TAYLOR
.
John TAYLOR
(147)(148)
(12)
(149)(150)
(151)(143)
(152)(37)
(31)(30) was born about 1843
in Blaenavon, Monmouthshire, Wales.(75)
(17)(149)
(147)
(12)(150)
(151)(143)
(31)(37)
(30) There is a great deal of conflicting information regarding John's
date and place of birth. Documents from Wales (four censuses and a marriage
liscence) place his birth between 1842 and 1844, and in three Welsh censuses
his birth place is listed as Blaenavon. Once in the U.S. he seems to have added
about 10 years to his age (on censuses, family bible, death certificate), and
is more apt to give England as his place of birth. I think the Welsh data is
more likely to be correct. He died on 9 Apr 1916 in Avoca, PA.
(75)(149) Although Mildred
in her 1997 notes says the family bible gives 4/9/1918 as the date of death,
the date on the death certificate is 4/9/1916. Cause of death was bronchial
asthma. A contributing factor was mitral regurgitation (?). He was buried in
Langcliffe Cemetary, Avoca, PA..(148)
(17) In 1851, at the age of 9, John was
living in River Row, Blaenavon with his family and was already working as an
ironstone miner. In 1861 he was listed as a coal miner on the census and as
a collier on his 1865 marriage license. John and Mary may have had one or two
children before leaving Blaenavon. By 1871 they are living in a cottage at Penyranglyn,
parish of Ystradyfodwg, Glomorgan, Wales, where John is again listed as a collier.
In the 1881 Ystradyfodwg census and in a 1880 Commercial Directory for that
area John is listed as a hairdresser. A 1998 phone conversation with Mildred
Taylor confirmed that John had been a barber in Wales and had hoped to continue
as one in the U.S. The 1881 census shows John and family living at 40 Gwendoline
Street. Mildred had in her possession a badly deteriorating proposed plan of
an "out house" to John Taylor on Gwendoline St., Treherbert. This
"out house" included a parlor, kitchen, back kitchen, garden, and probably
two upstairs rooms (bedrooms?). The Taylors emigrated from Wales via NY. (see
Russ Taylor's summary) According to Mildred, John and the oldest child (Abigail)
came first to Dupont, Pa. with the others following later. On the 1910 census,
John Taylor lists 1883 as the year he came from Wales. This is consistent with
the ages of the children in a family photo probably taken soon after their arrival.
At that time, Dupont was called Heidelberg, and the photo suggests that the
family lived in an area of town (or a street) called Florence Patch. After Dupont,
the family settled in Avoca. John was granted US citizenship on 10/7/1892 in
Luzerne Co., PA. In 1900 John lived on Collins St. in Pittston Township with
his wife, sons Joseph and Robert, and daughter Mary Jane. After his wife's death
in 1902 John lived with his daughter Mary Jane Llewellyn and her family on South
Grove Street (either 21 or 211 Grove), Avoca. In the 1910 census he is listed
as a laborer doing odd jobs.
Obituary indicates he was an active member of the Avoca Primitive Methodist Church.
Parents: John TAYLOR and Mary
Ann VIPON.He was married to Mary WITCHELL on
15 Jul 1865 in Llanfoist Parish, Monmouth Co., Wales (Blaenavon).
(147) Children were: Hanna Maria TAYLOR,
Abigail TAYLOR, Joseph TAYLOR
, Mary Jane TAYLOR, Robert Witchell
TAYLOR, Mary Jane TAYLOR.
John
TAYLOR(31)
(37) was born about 1810 in Paulton, Sommerset, England.
(31)(37) 1851 Blaenavon census
indicates John born in 1811 in Somerset. 1861 census shows him born in 1809
in Paulton, Somerset. He died between 1861 and 1871 in Blaenavon, Wales.
(31)(130)
John appears on the 1861 census. On the 1871 census hia wife is listed
as a widow. Could not find in 1841 census, but much of that census is too faded
to read. On the 1851 census, John is living in River Row and is listed as a
mine hallier (sic). On the 1861 census he is living in Victoria Row and is listed
as a coal miner. On his son John's marriage certificate (1865) he is listed
as a haulier. He was married to Mary Ann VIPON before
1835. Date based on age of oldest child shown in 1851 census. Children were:
