In Reply to: CHURCHILL FAMILIES OF NEWFOUNDLAND by Patricia Bryant Hammock of 3016

Hi Patricia,

I have a very little information about your Churchills and so am going to ask you a question. I strongly suspect that these Churchills tie in with my other Churchills connected to John the Scholar Tilley, b. April 1789 Hants Harbour, NFLD. At any rate, here is what I have:

Descendants of Richard Halfyard
                                                                      
       1        Richard Halfyard b: Abt. 1744 in Newfoundland              d: July 24, 1815 in Ochre Pit Cove, Conception Bay, Newfoundland                                   
..              +Elizabeth Churchill       b: Abt. 1751 in Ochre Pit Cove, Conception Bay, Newfoundland       m: September 17, 1772 in Anglican Cathedral, St. John's, Nfld       d: October 04, 1828 in Ochre Pit Cove, Conception Bay, Newfoundland                            Father: Samuel Churchill       
........       2        Elizabeth Halfyard                                                        
........       2        Richard Halfyard V       b: July 19, 1773                                                 
                                          
........       2        Clarimond Halfyard       b: Abt. 1783 in Ocher Pit Cove, Conception Bay, Newfoundland              d: May 1869 in Northern Bay, Conception Bay, Newfoundland                                   
........       2        Tamson Halfyard       b: 1789              

This info came to me from a very dear cousin, as I was told that Elizabeth was born in Ochre Pit Cove. You show that she was born in England. Patricia, can you tell me if there are sources for where Elizabeth was born? Do you have any records? I guess because I would like to know which one is the right one!! I could be wrong!

Here are some other Churchills, and so you can see that they may actually all be from the same family:

Descendants of Gilbert James Churchill
                                                                                                         
       1        Gilbert James Churchill       b: February 15, 1885 in Trinity Bay, Newfoundland, Canada              d: November 1958                                                                      
..              +Mary Jane Adey       b: October 04, 1883 in Foster's Point, Newfoundland, Canada       m: December 05, 1912 in Foster's Point, Newfoundland       d: June 05, 1978                                                        Father: William James Adey       Mother: Elizabeth Gulliford       


This one is the that I think is related to the one in your posting:

Descendants of Richard Bursey
                                                                                                         
       1        Richard Bursey       b: Abt. 1751              d: 1837                                                                      
..              +Catherine Churchill              m: Abt. 1776                                                                             
........       2        Richard Bursey       b: Abt. 1778              d: 1857                                                                      
........       2        William Bursey       b: Abt. 1781              d: 1866                                                                      
........       2        Elizabeth Bursey       b: Abt. 1789              d: July 29, 1869 in Upper Shoal Harbour, Newfoundland                                                                      
............              +John (the Scholar) Tilley       b: April 1789 in Hants Harbour, Old Perlican Bay, Newfoundland, Canada              d: July 09, 1871 in Shoal Harbour, Newfoundland, Canada                                                        Father: John William Tilley       Mother: ? Churchill       
........       2        James Bursey       b: 1789              d: 1865                                                                      
........       2        Joseph Bursey       b: 1795              d: 1883
