George HICKLING = Mary PEWTRALL
My great great grandparents
George's wife Mary was Mary Ann Pewtrall - she married a George Hickling from Bardon, Leicester on 21 December 1827 at Markfield, Leicestershire. George and Mary had at least eight children -
|
Francis** Thomas Hickling b1829, Hugglescote, Leicester |
John Hickling b1830, Hugglescote, Leicester |
James Hickling b1833, Hugglescote, Leicester |
Henry Hickling b1835, Hugglescote, Leicester |
Sarah Hickling b1837, Hugglescote, Leicester |
Elizabeth Hickling b1841, Hugglescote, Leicester |
William Hickling b1844, Hugglescote, Leicester |
Jane Hickling b1847, Hugglescote, Leicester |
**My great grandfather.
The above information was kindly supplied by Malcolm Hickling who would like to hear from anyone regarding the surname Hickling. His website is www.hickling.org.uk
I found a George Hickling on the IGI who was born about 1796, Hugglescote, Leicestershire - baptised at Hathern, 7 October 1811 when he was 6 years old. Plus other siblings whose parents were:
George and Margaret HICKLING - if this is my family, George and Margaret were my 3 x G Grandparents.
This could be confirmed when I view the film of the Parish Registers for Hathern
at Sheffield LDS Church Family History Centre at Grenoside.
An enquiry on the Leicestershire Rootsweb list led to me receiving more information regarding the Pewtrall surname - please follow this link for the Pewtrall family. Another lister Alison U Ring has the fiches for Markfield and kindly informed me that George HICKLING, bachelor (x) of Bardon to Mary PUTREL, of Markfield, spinster (x) by banns 21 Dec 1827. Witnesses: George PUTREL (x) and Dorothy HARVEY (x) and John NEWBALL.
Thanks to Genes Reunited, I have met a distant cousin who is also on the HICKLING trail. Carolynn Skelton, known as Lynn, is also a descendent of George and Mary Hickling - Lynn's family connection is her Great Grandfather, Henry Hickling. Carolynn Skelton and I visited the Family History Centre at Grenoside to see if they have information regarding our Hickling family in Leicestershire. We found several births and marriages on the IGI but in order to view the Parish Registers for Markfield and Hathern in Leicestershire we had to order the microfilms. These eventually arrived and we found the entries shown below and others which are shown on the Pewtrall family page.
Viewing the film of the Parish Registers for Markfield at Sheffield LDS Church Family History Centre at Grenoside at the end of September showed me the entry for the marriage of George Hickling and Mary Putril - my 2 x Great Grandparents:

I also found the baptism of my 2 x Great Grandmother Mary Ann Putrell - baptised at Markfield on 20 April 1804, but unfortunately did not get a printout. Please follow the Putrell/Peutrel/Pewtrall link for research relating to my 2 x Great Grandmother Mary Pewtrall.
A son for Mary before her marriage to George? There might be an explanation in the Markfield Poor Law records; one for future research.

In the Hathern records I discovered an entry which I thought was George Hickling's birth - its a multi-baptism which took place on 7 October 1804:
|
Baptism 1804 Oct 7 Anne Aged 8 yrs ) Mary an infant )daughters of George & Margaret Hickling
George Age 6 years )sons of George & Margaret Hickling Thomas Age 4 years ) |
However, Carolynn has led me to believe that the above baptisms are not 'our' Hickling family as she has found a George Hickling "born Hathern" in the 1851 Census living in Nottingham and working as a framework knitter. This census entry also matches some of the following Hathern baptisms:

My 2 x Great Grandparents George and Mary Hickling appear on the 1841 Census for Hugglescote, Leicestershire, page 16a - all born in county:
|
George Hickling, age 40, an Ag Lab |
Mary, age 35 | Francis*, age 12 |
John, age 10 |
| James, age 8 | Henry, age 6 | Sarah, age 4 | Elizabeth, age 4months |
* My Great Grandfather. This 1841 Census information was kindly sent to me by Marianne Burton via the LEICESTERSHIRE-PLUS-L Rootsweb Mailing List. Marianne also added that there were two more households in Hugglescote with Hickling names -
| John Hickling, age 35, a Coal miner |
John, age 13 |
And in another household was a Harriot Hickling, age 20, a Female servant. I need to find out more information before I can be certain that these other Hugglescote Hicklings belong to our Hickling family.
In 1849 on 26 November, Francis Thos Hickling was recorded as a witness to the marriage of Elizabeth Hannah Pewtrell and George Hewitt, the bride's father being Joseph Pewtrall - sister of Mary Pewtrall, Francis's Mother.
Thanks to another Leicestershire Web site http://uk.geocities.com/leicslookup/, Harvey Bates, who resides in Adelaide, South Australia. Harvey sent me the following information regarding the Hickling family, still living in Hugglescote, from the 1851 Census index - I have now obtained the full copy; however on Ancestry.co.uk they have been transcribed as "Stickling" - I have filled in the amendment form for each member of the family -
|
George Hickling, age 53, Lab. on the Coal Pit Bank, b1798, Leicestershire, Hugglescote |
Mary, age 48, b1803, Leicestershire, Markfield | Francis*, Unmarried, age 23, Coal Miner, b1828, Leicestershire, Markfield | John, age 21, Coal Miner, b1830, Leicestershire, Markfield | James, age 18, Coal Miner, b1833, Leicestershire, Markfield |
| Henry, age 16, Coal Miner, b1835, Leicestershire, Markfield | Sarah, age 14, Runs Lace, b1837, Leicestershire, Markfield | Elizabeth, age 10, Scholar, b1841, Leicestershire, Hugglescote | William, age 7, Scholar, b1844, Leicestershire, Hugglescote | Jane*, age 4, Scholar, b1847, Leicestershire, Hugglescote |
Their Schedule No. was 97 and looking at the previous Census page, against Schedule No. 93 in the 'Name of Street, Place or Road' Column it stated "on the Donington Road. In Green Row".
The above information shows that my Great Grandfather* must have left Leicestershire for the pits of South Yorkshire shortly after this Census as can be seen from the certificate shown below, he was married in Rawmarsh, Yorkshire in 1853.
* David Pittam - 2 x Great Grandson of Jane Hickling, on finding this website, contacted me with information regarding Jane. David has just obtained her birth certificate and the information is shown here:

||||||||
*John Hickling was the bridegroom's brother.
Keen to discover who was Mary's first husband, I searched for another entry for Mary Vaughan. This brought no record on the Free BMD site; but on the Ancestry.co.uk site I found that, included on the list for marriages taking place in the December quarter 1848 were Abraham Thompson and Mary Vaughan. I have sent for their wedding certificate. Knowing the full name of Mary's first husband I then searched for his death.
I found that Abraham had died during the March quarter of 1852 and the death was registered at Rotherham. This certificate should arrive on our doormat within seven days. Details of Mary's first wedding and Abraham's subsequent death can be found on the Vaughan family web page.
Shown on the Census as living at Upper Haugh:
|
Francis T Hickling, aged 32, Coal Miner, born Leicestershire, Markfield |
Mary Hickling, wife, aged 33, born Yorks, Thorpe |
Fredric Thompson, stepson, aged 9, Scholar, born Yorks, Rawmarsh | Henry Hickling, son, aged 5, Scholar, born Yorks, Rawmarsh, | Bertha Hickling, daughter, age 3, Scholar, born Yorks, Rawmarsh |
Adline (sic) Hickling, daughter, aged 2, born Yorks, Rawmarsh |
Francis T Hickling, son, aged 5m, born Yorks, Rawmarsh |
This Census reveals that Abraham and Mary did have a child, now age nine. In the 1851 Censes, Mary was shown with her son George, age 1, I need to find out what happened to George. No record though on the BMD site, so I will have to search the parish records for details. The birth of Adeline Hickling is on BMD, but no record of Bertha is to be found, except a marriage in 1877 March quarter v9c p605 to either Herbert Gamblen (sic) or Frederick Hague. Another search of the parish records required!
(This mystery was solved later following details of the marriage of Frances Ann Hickling to James Fretwell - one of the witnesses was Bertha Gambles.)
Adeline, though appears in the NBI list as being buried in Rawmarsh St Mary's churchyard on 28 Jan 1862 age 3 years. Also on the NBI list is Mary Jane Hickling buried 1 Oct 1868 aged 5 from Upper Haugh.
Another death found on the Rotherham FHS burial list was listed as follows:
THOMPSON Fredriss (sic) 19 Sep 1868
abode: Upper Haugh age: 17 son of Mary Hickling
Grave location Rawmarsh High Street Cemetery from 22/Jan/1867 to 17/Jan/1871
This must be the son of Abraham and Mary Thompson shown on the above 1861 Census entry as stepson of Francis and Mary Hickling. I don't know if Fredriss was a nickname or if the transcriber had difficulty with the name. It is however shown on FeeBMD as "Fredis Thompson".
Gordon Neal (a Vaughan researcher informed me that Francis Thomas Hickling, along with Ann Finney were witnesses at the marriage of John Vaughan and Sarah Waddams on 13 October 1861. John was the brother of Francis Thomas's wife Mary. The Finney family lived at Upper Haugh, neighbours of the Hickling family. Sarah Waddams was a widow; her family name had been Finney - details on the Vaughan family website.
Also found on the 1861 Census were George and Mary Hickling still residing in Hugglescote on Ibstock Road, with their son, William:
|
George Hickling, Head, Marr, age 63, Labourer on the Coal Pit Bank, born Leicester, Hugglescote |
Mary Hickling, Wife, Marr, age 56, born Leicester, Markfield |
William Hickling, son, Unmarried, age 17, Shoemaker, born Leicester, Hugglescote |
Thanks to Genes Reunited, I have met a distant cousin who is also on the HICKLING trail. Carolynn Skelton, known as Lynn, is also a descendent of George and Mary Hickling - Lynn's family connection is her Great Grandfather, Henry Hickling shown in the following Census record. Lynn lives in Beighton and came to visit me on 12 July 2005, when we ploughed through our research files and I scanned photographs which can be seen further down this page. We went to visit Jump, near Wombwell where Henry Hickling and his family lived and where John Hickling had a newspaper shop in the 1901 Census.
Carolynn's Great Grandfather, George and Mary's son Henry had also moved up to Yorkshire, and had married Lucy Litchfield* (Registered Barnsley, June 1860 v9c page 157) and their home was at 6 Hagues Row, Darfield, Wombwell district of Barnsley:
| Henry Hickling, Head, age 26, married, Miner, born Leics, Markfield | Lucy Hickling*, Wife, age 20, born Yorkshire, Worsboro | Mary Ann, daughter, age 10 months, born Yorkshire, Wombwell |
*Lucy Litchfield was born in
1840 at Worsborough Dale - her parents were William and Sarah Litchfield (nee
Pickering; William was born in Hoyland in 1802; Sarah born 1808 in Hoyland; they
were married in 1823 in Rotherham.![]()
George and Mary's daughter, Sarah Hickling had married George Dexter on 25 December 1860 and in the 1861 Census they were residing in Mill Street, Hugglescote, Leics:
|
George Dexter, Head, Married, age 25, Groom, born Leics, Roathley (sic) |
Sarah Dexter, Wife, Married, age 24, born Leics, Markfield |
I was unable to trace John, James or Elizabeth in the 1861 Census. However I have found the following possibilities:
This entry could be John and James Hickling, names wrongly heard or transcribed by the enumerator or the householder, two brothers boarding in Wombwell, South Yorkshire, the village of Wombwell, staying at the 'Prince of Wales' (John did eventually move to South Yorkshire) -
|
William Wild, Head, Mar, age 34, Beerhouse keeper, born Wakefield, Yorkshire |
Ann Wild, Wife, Marr, age 28, born Wakefield, Yorkshire |
William Dawson, Boarder, Un, age 20, Coal Miner, born Leicestershire |
James Hickley, Boarder, Un, age 28, Coal Miner, born Leicestershire |
John Hickley, Boarder, Un, age 30, Coal Miner, born Leicestershire |
This entry is more certain, Elizabeth at Donington le Heath, Leicestershire, living in the household of John Puxley White:
|
John Puxley White, Head, Mar, age 31, Chief Clerk & Travelor to the Snibston Colliery Comp'y, born Middlesex, Islington |
Mary Ann White, Wife, Marr, age 30, born Hampshire, Upton |
Jason H Reeves White, son, Un, age 9, Scholar, born Middlesex, Hoxton |

Only one member of George and Mary Hickling's family missing in 1861 is Jane . . . ?
1871 Census
Francis and Mary were living at Upper Haugh, most probably Chapel Walk, as appearing on the schedule - just above the previous household, the census log states Haugh Weslean Chapele (sic) and that was on Chapel Walk.

My 2 x G Grandparents, George Hickling and his wife were in Hugglescote, Leicestershire, in 1871 - RG10/3250; Folio 45, schedule 58 -
|
George Hickling, age 75, (according to Ancestry Plus b1796), a labourer born Hugglescote |
Mary Hickling, wife, aged 67, born 1804 in Markfield |
Amy Hickling, Grandaughter, aged 4, born 1867 in Hugglescote |
Amy is the illegitimate daughter of Jane. Confirmed by Jane's 2 x Great Grandson, David Pittam - Amy was born on 10 February 1867 in Hugglescote - there was no father's name given, the sub-registration district was given as Whitwick.
In the 1871 Census John and Sarah Hickling were living in Kirkroyds, Near Wombwell, in Yorkshire: A little mystery here though was Bertha Sarah's or John's daughter from a previous marriage or was she illegitimate? I did locate a John Hickling who married a Sarah Gocher in 1866 on FREEBMD, but looking on the 1871 Census on Ancestry.com, I found this couple were from Swannington, Leics. So to date I haven't managed to find a marriage for 'our' John and Sarah.

John Hickling, Head, Mar, age 37, (b1834), a miner, born Leics, Markfield |
Sarah Hickling, wife, Marr, aged 35, born 1836 in Leics, Markfield |
Bertha Hickling, daughter, aged 14, born 1857 in Leics, Markfield |
I have found a death for a Bertha Hannah Hickling, age 21 registered in Barnsley Jan 1878 9c p123.
Here's brother Henry and his family residing at 108 Allotts Cotts (Cottages), Jump, Near Wombwell:
|
Henry Hickling, Head, Marr, age 35, Miner, born Leics, Markfield |

Sarah Dexter nee Hickling died on 13 July 1869 - her husband George and their sons were still living in Hugglescote -
|
George Dexter, Head, Widower, age 30, a Porter, born Leics, Rothley |
John Dexter, son, aged 8, Scholar, born in Leics, Hugglescote |

Jane Hickling was a Domestic Serant in the home of Hosiery Manufacturer Joseph Marlow, 36 West Street, St Mary's Leicester:
|

Jane Hickling, Serv. Unmarried, aged 25, Domestic Servant, born Leicester, Hugglescote |
Agnes James, Serv. Unmarried, aged 16, Domestic Servant, born Leicester, Foxton |
According to Violet Matthew's research George and Mary's son James had married Elizabeth Clayton on 18 June 1861 in Syston; in the 1871 Census they are living in London Road, Whitwick, Leicestershire -
|
James Hickling, Head, Mar, age 30, Coal Miner, born Leics, Sileby |
Elizabeth Hickling, wife, Marr, aged 28, born Leics, Syston |
William Hickling, son, aged 10, Scholar, born Leics, Syston |
| Clara Hickling, Daur, aged 7, Scholar, born Leics, Coalville | Alfred Hickling, son, aged 4, born Leics, Coalville | John Edward Hickling, son, aged 1, born Leics, Coalville |
The James Hickling shown
above and the following entry showing a William Hickling
visiting the Clayton household in Syston are NOT our HICKLING
branch. I thought that this was George and Mary's youngest son, William.
The above mentioned James Hickling's father was
Thomas
Hickling - I have been contacted by Gareth Thomas who is connected to this
particular Hickling/Clayton family.

Carolyn always thought I was following the wrong 'track' regarding James - so what has happened to William and Mary's sons James born Markfield in 1833 and William, born Hugglescote in 1844? I have found a death which might be William on FreeBMD - registered at Aschby Zouch age 28; vol 7a page 60.
Update 2007! Carolyn has done some detective work based on the 1861 misnaming of James and John at the Prince of Wales pub, and we think this is James transcribed on Ancestry.co.uk as Lkling!! - enumerator's version is "Ikling" in the 1871 Census:
|
John Fletcher, Head, Mar, age 42, Miner, born Yorkshire, Elsecar |
Sarah Lees, Housekeeper, Marr, aged 42, born Lancashire, Manchester |
James Ikling, Boarder, aged 36, Miner, born - - - |
The address was given as 214 Skelson Cttgs; The enumeration district gives a clue: "Wombwell Township (part of). All the remaining part of the Township of Wombwell, comprising Kit Royd, and Jump, and Woodhead. Obviously James wasn't consulted on the content as there was nothing in the "Condition" column and 3 dashes in the "Where born" column.
