[PiwigoPress id=986 lnktype='albumpicture' opntype='_self' size='me' url='https://familyhistoryjournal.com/gallery'] Front row l-r: Frank Renwick, Harry Renwick, Ethel Ashforth, Ellen Ashforth (née Ellen Tomlinson), Ernest Renwick Back row l-r: Clara Renwick, Robert Renwick, Jessie Renwick Like most families we have 'shoe boxes' and 'biscuit tins' stuffed full of old photographs. Sadly most of these photographs have never been catalogued and so the subject or place can no longer be identified. My mother is custodian of our family's collection, so borrowing a few at a time I am hoping to digitally scan as many as possible. Beginning with those which we can readily identify I...

Harry Renwick, Clara Renwick and Jessie Renwick

Published: September 9, 2007    Last modified: November 8, 2016

[PiwigoPress id=1115 lnktype='albumpicture' opntype='_self' size='me' url='https://familyhistoryjournal.com/gallery'] Left to right: Harry Renwick, Clara Renwick, Jessie Renwick I am not at all certain about the young boy being Harry RENWICK 1910-1934. My mother's identification of the male children in the family of Harry RENWICK 1885-1959 and Jessie RENWICK (née Jessie ASHFORTH 1887-1954) conflicts with some of my research. I will document this further when time allows. I am hoping the contacts I have made with descendants of this line will be able to help resolve this issue. Updates: 2011-12-28 Further research seems to confirm that the young boy is indeed Harry RENWICK...

Wardsend Cemetery: Harry and Jessie Renwick (née Jessie Ashforth) and Dion Williamson

Published: January 12, 2017    Last modified: February 21, 2024

Wardsend Cemetery While searching for a plan of Crookes Cemetery, Sheffield (which I have now obtained) I came across links to Wardsend Cemetery, Sheffield. Wardsend Cemetery is a place I have visited in the past (see the Related Posts at the end of this article) since this is where some of my ancestors were laid to rest. In this post I described finding the headstone of Albert ASHFORTH, Harry RENWICK and Frank RENWICK. Well to cut a long story short, several years ago I attended a Family and Local History Day, at Bradfield Village Hall, Sheffield and purchased several CDs,...

Samuel Faulkner, Harry Renwick and a football team

...be simple financial arithmetic. Once again the photograph is without a date stamp, so I can only estimate the date being circa 1920-1925. My mother has identified the two adults: Left, wearing cap: Samuel FAULKNER 1875-Deceased, husband of Annie FAULKNER (née Annie ASHFORTH 1877-Deceased) Right, wearing cap: Harry RENWICK 1885-1959, husband of Jessie RENWICK (née Jessie ASHFORTH 1887-1954) This photograph has very little contrast and has faded badly so at the moment I cannot readily identify any of the young lads who make up the football team, though one or more of the RENWICK boys may be in this photograph....
