When I first started tracing my ancestors I found there were alternative suggestions for William Faulder’s parents. William was my Great Great Grandfather.
- Edward Faulder suggested:
- that William’s father was Robert Faulder
- that his mother was Catherine Blaylock
- that she had previously been married to another Robert Faulder
- Evidence (principally Parish Records and Administration Bonds) suggests that that is the case and that there are various links between the resulting half-families (see linked document). However the two Robert Faulders do not appear to be closely related.
- Another suggestion named Joseph and Susannah Faulder of Carlisle as parents; this couple would seem to be unrelated.
[…] posts have made reference to the half-family arising from Catherine Blaylock marrying two Robert Faulders and to the intertwining of various families mainly in North Cumberland […]
