Find Ancestors

Would someone help me by find out more details on a past relative please?
II am looking for a Thomas R. or B. Brunton born c.1833 in Ysceifiog near Holywell in Flintshire. He may have a brother named Joseph but I can not be sure.

His Mother was Ciciley Ann Brunton and may be a widow in 1851. (she died in 1888)

I have had no luck with the 1841 and was about to give up until I thought of looking further ahead.

Thanks in advance. Nala.

Thanks, A misspelling in the 1841 put me off the trail.

Thank you Dea and Maddie for helping me out. Lots of detail there too which will send me off on other trails also.

Cheers Nala.


PS. yes that's him as I know he lived in the High St, Holywell.

You are welcome Nala - Just ask if you need anything further.

Dea x

Could this have been his father's death?

Joseph was born Sep Q 1839 so this looks like it could be right.


Very good Dea. Thank you once again. Nala. :-D

If that is indeed the father's death above, then this could well relate?


Carlisle Journal 27 April 1839: - Deaths...

On Sunday week, near Holywell in Flintshire, aged 43,
Mr. Robert Brunton, trainer to Sir R. W. Bulkeley, Baronet,
and many years the successful trainer to the late JohnClifton Esq.,
much regretted.

Dea x

EDIT - He died on the 14th April at the racing stables near Holywell.

Yorkshire Gazette 20 April 1839:

On 14th inst., near Holywell, in Flintshire' after a long illness borne with great
patience and resignation, aged 43, Mr Robert Brunton trainer to Sir R.W.
Bulkeley, Bart., and also many years the successful trainer to the late John
Clifton Esq. He was a man much respected and at the race meetings which he was
in the habit of attending, Robert Brunton (by his friends familiarly called
"Bob" from his straight-forward manner and candour,) will be long and
much regretted.

Joseph's birth registration shows mother's name might have been Caddy
