<\/a><\/p>\nThis shows that Jon may be 6th cousin to KW and new match Derek. This is interesting as it goes one generation beyond my current Nicholson DNA\/Genealogy Chart:<\/p>\n
One question would be whether Hephzibah was the sister of my ancestor John Nicholson born in 1766:<\/p>\n I do have that John’s father John married a Hephzibah.<\/p>\n The main source cited by the ThruLines is a Habershon Tree at Ancestry:<\/p>\n Of special interest to me are the sources. Here is one:<\/p>\n This record says that there was a Hephzibah Nicholson who married a Thomas Habbershon in 1782.<\/p>\n Here is the tree from KW who matches some in my family:<\/p>\n KW also shows Hephzibah Nicholson in his tree. Even though I find no further record other than the transcription of the marriage between Hephzibah Nicholson and Thomas Habbershon, I am tempted to think that the Ancestry connection is correct.<\/p>\n Here is a non-conformist record for a birth:<\/p>\n This is from Attercliffe Zion Chapel for the birth of a Mercy Habershon daughter of Thomas Habershon, butcher and Hephzibah his wife. Here is Attercliffe at the top right of a current map:<\/p>\n I also have this on my Nicholson Web Page:<\/p>\n This has Samuel Wadsworth born in Attercliff in 1756. It looks like there was room for a Hephzibah to be born in 1761 or so. I mention a book also in my web page called Reminiscences of Old Sheffield, 1875. Here is an excerpt on John Nicholson of Darnell:<\/p>\n This John of Darnall married a Wadsworth so would have been arguably the father of Hephzibah. She married a butcher in Attercliffe. Although the reminiscence is sketchy above, it appears that this couple must be Thomas Habbershon and Hephzibah Nicholson.<\/p>\n It seems clear to me that Hephzibah Nicholson – named for her mother Hepphzibah Wadsworth was the daughter of John Nicholson of Darnall. Here is Darnall to the South of Attercliffe:<\/p>\n We see in the same 1875 account that John of Darnall moved to Sheffield:<\/p>\n Here is Broad Street in Sheffield today:<\/p>\n Here is the start of my updated Chart:<\/p>\n It now consists of two lines down from John of Darnall. Hephzibah had Joseph according to the ThruLines, but the records for him are sketchy.<\/p>\n There are at least three trees showing Joseph as the son of Thomas Habershon and Hephzibah Nicholson. Here is the main record shown for Joseph:<\/p>\n Here Joseph is a butcher which makes sense as Thomas Habershon was. However, the parents are not mentioned. Here is the 1825 Directory of Sheffield:<\/p>\n This appears to be the same Joseph – a butcher. My feeling is that the tree of DNA match KW is correct:<\/p>\n The other Nicholson match is Derek. His tree only goes back as far as Maria Habershon:<\/p>\n Let’s do a quick tree for Derek. Here is Derek’s grandfather’s marriage record:<\/p>\n Kellington looks closer to Leeds than to Sheffield:<\/p>\n Here is the family in 1861 where we see that the mother Maria was from Sheffield:<\/p>\n This gets us to the level of Derek’s tree:<\/p>\n Here is a clue from Ancestry:<\/p>\n This appears to be Maria in the 1841 Census;<\/p>\n Cudworth is between Sheffield and Leeds:<\/p>\n The 1871 Census shows that Maria was born in Attercliffe:<\/p>\n Maria named her son Joseph Habershon Papworth:<\/p>\n That is a good enough link to the Habershon family foro me.<\/p>\n Here is the connection:<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nHephzibah Nicholson Born About 1761<\/h2>\n
