That's in reference to my new bookmark The Passingham Family Blog: May 2006 Archives there is it? I saw our Edward Windebank (son of John Windebank) was born in 1847, so it sounded pretty good to me, but I can't tell if the thing they've transcribed is saying 1847 is his year of birth, or if it is the year of the marriage... I suspect it's the latter, and that there's no connection, shame. What do you reckon? I might get in touch with those Passinghams and see.
MARY ANN PASSINGHAM married EDWARD WINDEBANK - 1847 - FARLINGTON - is that his date of birth (might be our Edward Windebank then) or the date of the marriage?
Hmm, if you look at all of our records for 1847, we have Edward's brother Walter Windebank being born that year too, so might there be a mistake somewhere?
ALSO, while I am slacking off here and not job seeking, I found this old message board post regarding the Tribe family, sounds to me we are likely to be connected to the same roots as those people, we have links to those names and places. I tried to email them, but because those messages were posted six or seven years ago now, the email addresses aren't valid, and they bounced back. Doh! If you have any old emails and that from people who thought they might be related to ours, they might be worth revisiting. I'm going to check for old posts on here...

hi all
this is for all those interested in the windebanks of wield.
i was passed the info by susan knight and i have comfirmed it via the wield parish records.
the following are in susans own words:
***************************************
Note: There are two Elizabeth Windebanks in Wield of about the same age during the same time period. One is the daughter of Nicholas and the other the daughter of Thomas, both sons of Nicholas and his wife Elizabeth. The Wield Manor Court Books for 1740-1859 provide a key in identifying which is which. When the court was convened on October 27,1800 (page 169), the following item was listed:
"At this court before the Steward and in the presence of the Homage Samuel Giles and Elizabeth his wife which said Elizabeth is eldest daughter and heir of Nicholas Windebank deceased surrendered into the hands of the Lord of the said Manor (she the said Elizabeth being first solely and secretly examined) one Messuage and one little parcel of land to the same belonging and adjoining on the west part thereof in West Wield to the use and behalfof William Giles and his Heir according to the custom of the said Manor"(Hampshire Record Office item 112M97/2 pages 175-176.
Per the above that as Elizabeth Giles (nee Windebank) is the daughter of Nicholas then this Elizabeth Windebank, who married Richard Knight, must be the daughter of Thomas.
