Relationship=2nd cousin of John Greenwood Cordes.

     William Churchill was born in 1927. He died in 1974 at Henley, England.

 

Mary Cordes

ID# 34, (c 1802 - )
     Mary Cordes was born circa 1802.
           Mary Cordes may be the same person as Mary Ann Hepworth born c. 1802, found by searching Ancestry for "Mary Hepworth". However, the notion that Mary Cordes, listed as a daughter of John Cordes in a family note, married a Hepworth may be a mistaken interpretation. I now [Mar. 28/09] think it more likely that Mary married at Hepworth, probably the Hepworth in Yorkshire. The remainder of the entry on Mary in the family note is consistent with identifying Mary as Ann, the daughter who married (1) Peter Slinn and (2) Joseph Lockhart.
     The whole situation is further confused by my current belief [as of March 2009] that Rebecca is quite likely a hitherto unsuspected daughter of John and Elizabeth; there is no mention at all of Rebecca in the family note.

 

Elizabeth Coxsey

ID# 38, (c 1777 - 1829)

Relationship=2nd great-grandmother of John Greenwood Cordes.
Charts
Pedigree of John Greenwood Cordes
     Elizabeth Coxsey was born circa 1777. She married John Cordes in 1801 at St. Olave, Southwark, London, England.1,2 Elizabeth Coxsey died on 20 June 1829 at Sheffield, Yorkshire, England.3 She was buried on 20 June 1829 at Sheffield, Yorkshire, England.4
      Elizabeth Coxsey looks like the best candidate for the Elizabeth who marries John Cordes [JGC - 28 Mar 2009].
