Convict Notes
I have finally discovered the second set of Banns of Marriage for Michael and Frances Cook. These banns were two years after the first set of banns in 1823 when no marriage took place between them. The second set were read in All Saints Heathfield on Oct 16, 23, 30 of 1825 prior to their eventual marriage on Monday 7th November 1825.
Barry Hayward I have tried emailing you a couple of times but they keep bouncing back.
Because historical and genealogical research is a constantly moving feast, here are some pertinent updates to the research about Michael. 1) Michael was most likely born in the catchment area of Waldron church rather than in Heathfield itself as he was baptised at All Saints Church Waldron on 26th June 1803. 2) Until some conclusive DNA evidence comes to light, John Cook's parentage cannot be definitively established. Many documents and pieces of information gathered recently, including my own Hayward DNA test results (which link positively to some of Michael and Sarah's descendants as well as descendants of Michael's siblings) which when compared against possible descendants of John Cook do not match, as well as the somewhat ambiguous wording in Michael senior's will - see above, all the information I have to hand currently points to Michael as not being John's Cook's biological father. At the moment, therefore, my considered and balanced evaluation is that he is not; however, that may change at some point in the future if more information (including positive DNA matching) comes to light. - After his conviction, and before he was sent to the prison hulk York, Michael was kept at Horsham gaol not Lewes. - No definitive evidence exists to confirm that John Ellison - the person quoted as Sarah Ellison's father on her baptism certificate - was a real person, or that Isabella was married to anyone let alone to a "John Ellison". Nor is there any evidence as to the identity of this John Ellison, if indeed he did exist. At this moment in time, and following extensive research, I am suggesting that Isabella was not married and that Sarah was fathered illegitimately by a person unknown.
Hi Ann Johansen, please email me at swordofzorro696969@yahoo.com, thanks!
Hello Claire, If you would like to e-mail me at adamsjayne4@aol.com we can discuss further.
Hi. My husbands descends from John Cook Hayward who was Michael Jrs son and he lived with his grandfather Michael when his father was transported. I would love to see any photos of him or family. Best wishes
Following further research it appears that Michael had another child who predeceased him - a son James - born April 1845 and died in April 1846, aged 1 year. Burial transcripts show that he is also buried in All Saints Cemetery Parramatta and his name appears on the commemorative wall there above the name of his brother Reuben.
Barry Hayward I would love to see and photos you have of Michael Hayward and family. Michael and Sarah where my gg grandparents.
Yes please Barry I would love to see some photos of Michael and Sarah. Michael was my great uncle x4. His brother Thomas was my Gt,Gt,Gt Grandfather. I guess that makes us cousins somewhere along the line.
I have some family pics which include Michael and Sarah if anyone is interested. I am Michael's GG Grandson.
