Sorry Bill, my lot seem to all center around Cheshire & Staffordshire,
but mostly Cheshire. If you ever find a "Sampson" in your midst, it
might perk my ears up a bit...but, no, your lot are all furriners to me!
Good luck with your research,
Kind regards

Thomas CARTWRIGHT 75 Ind yes

This is most likely daughter Ann b. 1799 in Whitchurch. Her daur Elinor
might
marry a Banda Parkinson. (from 1861 census RG9/2728 f 78 pg 9 daur Ruth

orphan in the 1871 census.) With them is an Elizabeth Tomkinson, widow
age
52
b. Whitchurch, who I believe is a Cartwright as her kids have it as a
middle
name. Need to find out how this all fits. The following census confirms
my
suspicions!

The "Official Ancestral and Tax Policy for Naming Newborns".
The policy states that previously used names were cheaper, and the more
shopworn the name the cheaper it was. If it was the newborn's Daddy's,
Grandaddy's, Uncle's or cousin's name it only cost a dime to use it again,
where if you gave the kid a name your family hadn't used before it cost 20
cents.
If the name had been used at least three times in the past two generations it cost seven cents to use. If the name had been given to a 1st or 2nd degree cousin born in the same town in the same year it cost two cents to use.
If the newly named had four living relations within walking distance, all
with the same name, you got PAID a nickle to use it. If the mother and
daddy of the baby were first cousins and one of the babies cousin's of the
same name had parents who were siblings of the newborn's parents they ALL
got a dime.
If they could manage it so that the child's parents were not only related, but had the same given names as their second cousins next door whose GRANDPARENTS had the same name as the first child's Grandparents, EVERY LIVING RELATIVE within walking distance got FIVE DOLLARS. This Nirvana of naming bliss was never achieved as far as we know but it was not for lack of trying.
Was this the came criterion in UK?
