Hi. Much progress has been made. Re two points above - the tree I had was incorrect - that Joseph Stock was James Stock. I have now identified the two generations of Pierpoint but cannot link to the Duke of Kingston which has a different spelling

I have made some good progress. I now know that Richard Shutt did in fact mary a Mary Pierpoint and that her father was born around 1710 named Ezekiel Pierpoint. Had a number of children including Mary, Ann, James and others. Having difficulty moving any hgher. These generations all around Lancashire. According to an old tree I have Ezekiel's grandfather may have been the Duke of Kingston however I have some doubt about this. any thoughts appreciated

I have made good progress corroborating the tree I shared with you. The elusive part is confirming the Pierrepont link ...
What I have is : Richard & Mary Shutt nee Peirpoint/Pierpoint. Issue: Richard 1757 all born at Billinge Ezekiel 1759 Mary 1761 Thomas 1763 Ann bc. 1765 (ours) Ann married James Stock 1784 in St.Helen's Lanc. James was born 1740 in Wigan, Lanc. s/o James & Ann nee Green. Ann Shutt was his second wife, he married his first wife Elizabeth in 1761 at Leigh Atherton, Lanc. They had 7 children born in Ashton & St. Helens. James & Ann went on to have 11 children. It appears that after his re-marriage he moved to Ness in Cheshire where he was an under ground mine manager at the Denhall colliery, just down the road from The tie also appears to be in the glass manufacturing business, as on Edward Stock's will s/o James & Ann (Shutt) it stated that Thomas Stock glass manufacture of Liverpool was an executor of Edwards will. Edward lived at Oxton, near Birkenhead at the time of his death in 1913. Also in the Liverpool Directory for 1830s William & Thomas – glass manufactures are listed in Liverpool. Another instance the 1841 Census – Edward & Hannah parents of the above Edward and son of James were listed as being with Thomas Stock on the night of the census, glass manufacture.

Great, thanks again. I obtained Thomas Shutt's will. It confirms that Joseph Stock is a nephew. Very wealthy!
I also found a will for a Richard stock a glass merchant from Middlesex who was also very wealthy. He had a brother Thomas Stock - interesting. These wills are hard to read so havent gone through them properly yet. I hope you can make some sense of the bits n pieces i sent.
regards stuart

Thanks again. I have acquired the will and out of interest sent it to you both. I need a magnifying glass and a glass of red to transcribe it into a readable form. However I can see that it confirms Joseph Stock was his nephew making his mother a Shutt which i suspected. It also confirms he was very wealthy given the annuities he was granting. Until i properly descipher it I cant quite tell what would have happened to his interest in British Crown Glass which I suspect was his source of wealth and also whether he had an interest in Bournebrook hall. The names of other nieces and nephews also appear although some are hard to read. I can at this stage not descipher any reference to a wife or children. thanks again, very fascinating

On the 1930s document it shows Josephs parents as another Joseph Stock and an Ann whose parents are a Richard Shutt and Mary (surname unknown). There are then dotted lines to two generations of Pierrpont and then the Duke of Kingston. If you would like to see the doc please send me an email addy I have it scanned. It sat in an elderly relatives cupboard for 60 years!

Hi Stuart, the sources I used were Ancestry, FindMyPast, British Newspaper Archives, FamilySearch (that one is free).
Do you have any idea as to who Joseph's mother might have been?

Wow - thanks for all of that some I have some I do not have. Do you have an email address - if so I will send you a tree and some commentary that was written in the 1930s that came into my possession last week. The tree indicates that possibly through his mother Joseph was related to the Shutts in a way that from my read implies Thomas was his father in law or maybe brother in law. Thomas did die in 1822/4 and that is the right business. interestingly, Bournbrook Hall became the famous Cadbury Bournville site. Harriet his daughter married Robert Smith Bartleet of Redditch needle making fame which is the direction from which I come. Out of interest I have never really mastered the primary research in the english records - I would be fascinated to know which sources you mainly used on the above to get to where you did so quickly. You will also note the alleged link to the Pierrepont's and the Duke of Kingston in the material I sent. From my review of Pierrepont trees on line I have some doubts about this - maybe invented by some "new money industrialists". thanks again for your help

(I think I'd be investing in the birth certificate for Ann, to find out mother's maiden name.)

1841 census shows a child Ann who was 4mths old at the time of the census. This is very probably her birth:-
Births Mar 1841 (>99%) Stock Anna Kings Norton 18 427
.............the certificate will give her mother's maiden name which may help to confirm is there is any link.
Son Thomas does have middle name Shutt which could indicate that mother's maiden name was Shutt, but the other son, Joseph has middle name Sharp?
