Edward and Ellen married in Edworth not Campton !! They returned to Old Warden around 1623 possible to look after an aging John Inskip who died in 1626. Edward appears in the court rolls, but is possibly a Labourer not a Cottager. Sorry. Edward and Ellen married in Edworth not Campton !!

This is exactly why Terry and I share our research on this blog, so we are very glad to have been of help. You should also read the blog on the Bedfordshire Inskips -especially why they moved there in the sixteenth century and the story of John and Margaret - as both you and I have a common inheritance there. Edward Inskip had 3 wives, Mary was his first and died in 1783. Edward was son of William Inskip (1713) from Southill and Mary Day, he too was a Yeoman farmer and I believe owned the Red Lion in Hitchen. William in turn was the son of Edward Inskip (1687) born Old Warden and Avice Mason. He was a husbandman at marriage, but worked his way up the social scale to become a Farmer. Which will basically mean he enhanced his landholding and social responsibility/standing. Edward was the son of William Inskip (sometime before 1657) born Henlow and his second wife Elizabeth Usher. He was a husbandman William was the son of William Inskip (1625) Old Warden and his first wife Ann Shaw from Henlow. William was a tailor, and when Ann died returned to a cottage holding in Old Warden. There is an excellent story of a maidservant stealing a kettle from him and his second wife Elizabeth. William was the son of Edward/Edmund Inskip (1590) and his wife Ellen Thruxton . As land to rent was short in Old Warden due to the economics of the time, he moved to Campton to marry Ellen. He would probably have been a husbandman, perhaps a Labourer. Edward was the son of John Inskip and Margaret Pope; as far as I am aware through my research the first Inskip in Old Warden. See post about them. Pat

Thomas Inskip was my great x 3 grandfather. I only came across him a couple of years ago while researching family tree. I got as far back as Hampden Inskip (Thomas' son) and then came across One Name Study and found out about Thomas. I knew his parents were Edward and Mary (from a genealogy site), but thanks to you I now have Mary's maiden name and fact that Edward was a farmer. Do you know of Thomas Inskip's epic poem 'Cant'? British Library have a copy and also available on Google Books. He was a wonderful forward-thinking man! Thanks again, Pat B. Hi Jennifer, thanks for this wonderful blog!

William was the 2nd child of Abraham and Susan Vause Inskeep. I have the family bible that belonged to William Inskeep in which there is an extensive 'Family Record' of births, deaths and marriages. Some of the Inskeeps from Romney migrated to Indiana in the late 1800's. They founded the town of Romney Indiana. How original!! My grandparents, George and Flossie Inskeep, lived in Monticello, Indiana, some 20-30 miles from Romney. My parents, William and Marietta Inskeep visited the old family homestead in Romney, VA, in the 1970's. The house has been restored, along with the original slave quarters, and is in a beautiful setting by a river. I am David Inskeep, a decendent of William Inskeep of Romney, VA.

Their daughter Rebecca married James Machir and they are my GGGGG-grandparents on my paternal grandmother's side. I've recently returned to working on the family genealogy and have just begun entering this section of the family. I found a book on demand reprint of the Machir family in America, that ties together the same information kept by my paternal grandmother. I found your blog doing a Google search looking for the Inskeep graveyard in WV. I live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and hope to make a trip in 2009 to find graves and research in Hardy Co, WV. It's less than 5 hours by car over back roads to that part of the state. -Nancy Dubuar Pittsburgh, PA, USA Hi Jennifer,

]]> Comment on Sydney Hope Inskip by Jennifer Inskip http://inskip.wordpress.com/2008/06/26/sydney-hope-inskip/#comment-30 Jennifer Inskip Thu, 11 Sep 2008 15:54:10 +0000 http://inskip.wordpress.com/2008/06/26/sydney-hope-inskip/#comment-30 More Information on Sydney Hope Inskip from David. Hope died on the raid whilst serving on HMS Iris, a requisitioned Mersey ferry boat, chosen for her shallow draught. I am a military historian and medal collector and have done a lot of research on my Hopey. There are several books that mention him, the most recent being " The Zeebrugge Raid 1918 - The Finest Feat of Arms by Paul Kendall; it has a resume of his military career and a few photos of him. There are several really good ones kept at the Royal Marines museum including a cracking one with the King. He wrote a lovely letter from the trenches at Gallipoli. When he died his servant found him on his knees, he had gone to the wardroom to get some cigarrettes for his men. In one of the books I have it states from one of his sergeants how caring he was and was quite obviously a brilliant good officer and they loved him. which really endears my to him. I would suggest the book I mentioned and it is current at Waterstones. I have had a lot of communication with the author with reference Hope ( thats the name he was called by and not Sydney ). He is buried at Ilford london with his father. More Information on Sydney Hope Inskip from David.
