Melsonby 1911

There were 19 Kipling households in the 1911 census descended from Thomas

Kipling of Melsonby1.

Thomas Kipling married Dorothy Lumley at Melsonby in 1795 (a witness was a Matt

Kipling). They also had sons Jeremiah (1796), Robert (1798) and Thomas (1801)

baptised at Melsonby.

Thomas was the son of Jeremiah Kipling who married Jane Colpits at Manfield in

1768. He was baptised at North Otterington in 1769 (he died in 1849 aged 80, see

below).

Jeremiah and Jane also had a daughter Jane baptised at North Otterington in 1771, a

son Jeremiah baptised at Great Smeaton in 1773 and another son Matthew

(presumably the ‘Matt’ above) at Easby (Richmond) in 1774 when Jeremiah and Jane

were living at a place called English Close.

Further children were baptised at Barton, the first suggesting that son Jeremiah (1773)

had died.

subsequently been identified as part of the Staindrop group.

1783 Aysgarth

They also had a daughter Sarah in 1786 at Aysgarth. Jeremiah and Jane seem to have

moved to Richmond by 1792, as the burial record below shows:

1792 Barton St C

It seems likely that Jeremiah and Jane then moved to Liverpool, as her death is

probably that reported below.

St John’s Liverpool, 1801

Jeremiah was probably the son, born 1742 in Winston, of William Kipling. William

was probably born at Dalehead Farm in Balderdale in 1714 (son of Tobias/Talbot

Kipling and Bridget Lockey; he had an elder brother Jeremiah). See ‘18th and 19th

Century Baldersdale Kiplings’.

http://kipling.one-name.net/18th%20Century%20Baldersdale%20Kiplings.pdf

Son Tobias married Eleanor Cawton at Thornton-le-Street in 1806.

Records show Tobias living in Pitt Street Liverpool and being an Exciseman in 1824.

Parliamentary Papers: 1780-1849, Volume 19

Another directory around this time apparently shows a Thomas Kipling as also being

an exciseman (at the same address). Was this an error for Tobias or was his brother

(or nephew) Thomas also engaged in this business?

Thomas and his brother Tobias were both living in Melsonby in 1840, as the tithe

records show:

This is confirmed by the 1841 census.

Jeremiah married Ann Swainstone at Melsonby in 1828 and they had a daughter Jane

in 1830. Jeremiah died in 1831 aged 34. Thomas, Matthew and Robert’s families are

described below.

Tobias died in 1845 aged 67 (he was actually only 64), Thomas died in 1849 at the

age of 80 and Ellen (sic) aged 73 the same year. Dorothy was still alive in 1851.

It is probable that Thomas’s other brother Matthew (1774) died in Liverpool in 1824,

where he was a customs officer (also known as a ‘tide waiter’). He had only married

the previous year.

Children of Matthew Kipling (1803)

Matthew married Mary Waistell in 1824 and by 1841 had sons James (1825), Mark

(1827), Jeremiah (1831), Tobias (1834 d1834) and Tobias (1840) and three daughters.

In 1841, Jeremiah and Tobias were at home.

1841 Melsonby

Son James was an apprentice tailor living with his master elsewhere the village and

Mark was a farmer’s servant in Aldborough parish.

By the time of the 1851 census, Matthew was a gamekeeper in Melsonby. Tobias was

still living at home and James, now married (see below) was visiting. Matthew and

Mary had also had two further daughters.

1851 Melsonby

Mark meanwhile had move to Gayles and married. The rest of his history follows

later.

It is not known where Jeremiah was in 1851 but he died in 1853 at the age of 21. By

1861, Matthew and Mary had moved to Barton:

Family of James Kipling (1825)

In 1848, James married Dorothy Pounder in the local register office.

Dorothy’s father Benjamin died in 1850 and left her a legacy:

In 1851, a curious advertisement appeared in the York Herald of 15 February:

There would appear to have been a falling-out, as at time of the census the following

month, Dorothy and young daughter Jane Anne were living with the Pounders at

Gayles and, as seen above, James was back with his parents in Melsonby.

Dorothy also took James to court for maintenance.

They nevertheless appear to have resolved matters, as a son James John was born in

Leeds in 1856 but died the following year.

Becket Street Cemetery 1857

A few months later, James is referred to in the records of David Richards, Mormon

President in Witton-le-Wear.2

August 1857

23 Sunday) In the morning before 7:00 o'clock Johy Jonson came to call for an

administration on Brother James Kipling from Leeds who is here for a time staying at the

home of his sister in Woodsaid. I went up there. I administered the ordinance to him. He was

throwing up blood. I came back from there home and went after that up to North Beechborn

with Elder Wm Horn to distribute tracts. We visited 46 families. 19 of them [received} the

tracts. At 1:30we preached in the open air there. A few people gathered to listen, and from

there to Rumble Hill. We visited 22 families there. 13 received the tracts. At 4:00 o'clock we

preached out of doors there. A very good hearing. A few gathered. We went from there to

Howdon. We visited 35 families. 13 received the tracts. The people are generally quite

satisfied. And from there to Witton le Ware to the home of Bro Wm Horn. I had some food.

We held a sacrament meeting there. And from there home. I went past Woodseid and looked

in on Bro. James Kipling. He was a little better. I administered the ordinance to him. I

walked today close to 10 miles.

24 Monday) Wrote in the morning. After that I went to administer to Brother James Kipling.

He is a little better today. And from there to Bp Auckland. When I came back from there my

son Win David had been close to having his hand on the train track between the four wheels.

A small. injury on his right hand. In the evening I exchanged the tracts in the houses by the

old Witton Park coal pit. I visited 18 families. 13 of them received the tracts. I preached out of

doors there at 7:00 o'clock. A very good hearing with many gathered. After I returned home a

messenger came to fetch me for Brother J. Kipling. I went up to him. He was throwing up

blood through his mouth. I administered the ordinance to him and he got a little better. I

returned home between 11:00 and 12:00 o'clock. I walked 8 miles today.

25 Tuesday) Between 3:00 and 4:00 o'clock in the morning a messenger came to fetch me for

Brother J. Kipling. I went up to him. He was throwing up blood exceedingly. I anointed him

with oil and administered the sacrament to him and laid my hands on him. And he got much

better. Worked during the day. In the evening up to Woodseid to look in on Brother J.

Kipling. He was much better tonight. I administered the ordinance to him. Sister Kipling had

come here today from Leeds.

2 THICK GREEN JOURNAL OF DAVID RICHARDS (ENGLISH TRANSLATION) Day book in which I,

David Richards (President of the Witton le Ware Branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the

Durham Conference), record some things and how I spend my time, beginning in this book on October 13, 1856.

26 Wednesday) Worked during the day. In the evening in Witton le Ware. I acted in the office

of teacher at the home of Brother and Sister Horn. Sister J. Thompson present there. All

feeling very good about living their religion. 4 miles.

27 Thursday) Worked during the day. In the evening I wrote and went up to Woodseid to

administer to Brother J. Kipling. He is very much better.

The fact that James and Dorothy married in a register office rather than a recognised

church may have indicated that they were converts to Mormonism.

Mormon sacraments notwithstanding, James died less than five months later in Leeds,

attended by his brother.

Dorothy and Jane Ann then crossed the Atlantic from Liverpool to New York in May

1860 aboard the Underwriter, one of the Mormon ‘fleet’ (she may have been a

servant to a John Moulton, see below)

They are listed as members of group of Mormons which left Florence, Nebraska for

Salt Lake City in June that year.

They also appear at Omaha in the census taken on 1 June 1860, their places of birth

being recorded incorrectly as Illinois.

The occupations of their next-door neighbours are rather bluntly described!

Dorothy’s fate is unknown but Jane Anne married Joseph Buckley around 1867, lived

in Salt Lake City in and died there in 1927.

She is buried in Salt Lake City cemetery.

Family of Mark Kipling (1827)

By 1861, Mark had moved to Long Benton, Northumberland, although having first

spent time in Staindrop. He had sons Matthew (1853) and Mark (1859).

Three more daughters had arrived by 1871.

Mark died in 1877 and by 1881 Elizabeth had remarried. Son Mark was living with

her.

Twenty years later, Mark was married and living in Byker near Newcastle, with a

family of his own.

In 1881, brother Matthew was in Long Benton with a family of his own, a quarry

worker like his father, step-father and brother.

Matthew was somewhat of a magnet for stray animals!

Matthew had by then separated from Margaret, as he was living with a Minnie Smith

across the Tyne at Heworth (#77). Presumably for the sake of decorum, he described

himself as a widower and her as his housekeeper.

1911. Heworth, Gateshead

Matthew married Minnie Smith in 1927 and died in Gateshead in 1934.

Was this him in 1908?

In 1911, son George was living in Gateshead, working in the shipyards (#75).

He married he following year (the register entry subsequently being corrected).

Family of Tobias Kipling (1840)

Tobias married Sarah Wright at Healey near Masham in 1865, where he was

schoolmaster.

He then attended the University of London.

By 1881, Tobias was transitioning to photography, his teaching now being private.

The family had also moved to Darlington.

1881 Redsdale St, Darlington

1891 Lambton St, Darlington

Tobias took the photograph in the Manchester City archives referred to below:

The album belonged to Mrs Bradshaw's father and his family. He was called Sayer and came from

Starbotton, Yorkshire where they had a farm. Mrs Bradshaw knows only a few details about some of

the photos. However, [...] they were all taken before the 1900s.

Woman. 909/85 No Date Reverse of 909/85. Reads: 'Portrait and Landscape Photographer, T

Kipling, Westbrook Buildings, Northgate, Darlington. Negatives kept. Copies and enlargements may be

Tobias is also credited with the following photograph, about which it is said “Tobias

Kipling was born in 1841 in Melonsby and lived in Darlington at 1 Lambton Street

from 1891 until 1894. Many thanks to Peter Jefferies for this information”.

Son Frederick Kitson died in 1892 and wife Sarah died in 1900, by which time the

family had gone its separate ways. Tobias continued in business as a photographer,

although in Middlesbrough.

The picture below is also one of Tobias’s.

Son Charles Waistell was also a Middlesbrough photographer, assisted by his brother

William Alfred. Charles had married Emily Dobbing in 1894.

Tobias’s oldest son Matthew George died in Darlington in 1910 but his circumstances

between 1891 and then are unknown. In 1911, his presumed widow (although I can
