I was born and raised in Idaho and am still here and intend to remain. I live in the country which is a farming area and very beautiful. A was married very young and had my ten children while young. We grew up together. My mother introduced me to family history when I was a teenager. I helped her gather information from her books and I loved hearing the stories she told about family. Later in life when I began my own research projects, I spent numerous hours at the library reading about the ancestors I discovered on my family tree.
I was so amazed that I copied a lot of it to bring home. This information, I have kept in my library and am using it for this history. Would you like to tell us about a lower price? If you are a seller for this product, would you like to suggest updates through seller support?

Fascinating reading and fabulous images from the past and present! I will eventually be back to explain the Mecham story — until then, thanks for reading and have a lovely summer. His father is still unknown but his mother, Fanny Yates and her likely ancestors are shown below. Andrews Holborn in The earliest records I found of them living at this address were the apprenticeship papers of one of his children.
Samuel Mecham 1 May London Metropolitan Archive; Reference Number: Freedom admissions papers, — George Mecham 4th August On the other hand, they may have been among the Irish people who arrived slightly later — I have found quite a few records of Mechams from Ireland and I think the name Meakham mentioned above as a possible ancestor is almost certainly an Irish name.
Going back even further in time, the Mechams could have been part of an earlier group that made a positive impact on the weaving ind ustry in England long before the Huguenots and Irish arrived. Many of the French and Flemish protestant refugees who settled in England in the early 16th centur y were silk workers, and they brought with them new skills and materials that the weaving industry in London benefited from — Londoners took up silk weaving and many foreign weavers were absorbed into the Weavers Company.
The origin of this important industry as located in Spitalfields dates from the revocation of the Edict of Nantes by Louis XIV in , when the French Protestants, driven by persecution from their own country, took refuge in England in large numbers…… A great body of these refugees occupied a large district which is usually called Spitalfields, but which includes also large portions of Bethnal Green, Shoreditch, Whitechapel , and Mile End New Town. More information can also be found on Wikipedia under the heading Spitalfield Riots.
Irish weavers came slightly later, but by the middle of the s there were many people from Ireland, or of Irish origins, working in the Spitalfields silk industry. Relations between the groups were not always good. There were times when the Irish weavers were blamed for working for too little money and bringing down the rates of pay.
The conflict of cut right through the middle of both communities, the Huguenots and the Irish. Journeymen were involved in a struggle to keep the rates that the master weavers paid for their work from falling below a subsistence level. They organised in unofficial, and highly illegal, trade unions. Meeting with resistance, the soldiers fired on the weavers and killed two, and captured four.
The remainder fled and lay concealed in cellars of houses and in the vaults of the churches throughout the night of terror not only for them but also for their womenfolk. Could a journeyman take on an apprentice? If anyone knows the answer to these questions please do leave a comment at the bottom of the blog or email me via the contacts page. Having rearranged my thoughts to incorporate this new information about my family, I then discovered some facts that, once again, came as a surprise.
Mecham Family History
Although there is no absolute proof that Frances Fanny Harriett Yates is the mother of my great grandfather Edward Cavendish Yates, there is enough evidence to be sure that she is a distant relative of my great grandmother, Priscilla Jane Mecham, and therefore myself and my cousins of three generations. Various things got in the way of my finishing off what I knew of Fanny Yates story. One of the problems with investigating family history online is that it is so easy to get side-tracked. Before I continue I should warn all readers that I have decided to take the reckless step of leaving out apostrophes while using family names if the convention is that they should be there.
So here we go with the very last part of Frances Harriet Yates and her possible maternal connection to my great grandfather Edward Cavendish Yates. You should find all the records I refer to in this blog somewhere down the right hand side of this page. At first I thought this was just an indication of the friendship that had grown between the two women.
However, when I discovered that this change in relationship was recorded less than two years before Edward Cavendish Yates and Priscilla Jane Mecham got married, it seemed just a bit too much of a coincidence. Edward obviously decided to include a name for his father even though his birth certificate was blank for this relationship. Residence at the time of Marriage: Rank or Profession of Father: Last, Henry Powell Huggins.
Why do I have these nasty suspicions? If Edward Cavendish Yates father really was called Edward Yates, that would mean both his parents shared the same surname at birth. If this were the unlikely case they would probably be cousins. If they were cousins not that I can find cousins called Fanny and Edward Yates , I think that family pressure would have ensured they married when Fanny became pregnant?

Once married I know they continued to live in the same area because the births of their first two children, Edward Cavendish and Rose Jeanette, were both registered in Thanet. I do know, however, that before her marriage, Priscilla lived with her family in Clifton Terrace. It is possible the couple and their two young children continued to live at this same address until their third child was born in , by which time, they had moved to Barnsbury, Middlesex now part of the London Borough of Islington.
Clifton Terrace, Margate s. Ann Tilling, the head of the household, had died in and her daughter Sarah took over the occupation of House Agent. By the time of the census there were only three people registered as living in the house — Sarah Christie, her daughter Sarah A. Christie and Fanny Yates. Fanny was still working as a dressmaker, but was recorded in this census for the first time since her birth as Frances H.
So now I can say with some confidence that when Frances Harriett Yates went to live with her older sister in Manor Street Chelsea at the age of 23, she was known as Fanny. Fortunately for me and my research, once Ann Tilling had died, and by the time Fanny was in her fifties, she was once again being recorded in the censuses as Frances.
Perhaps Frances H Yates was her business name? Perhaps Frances filled in the census form herself for the first time. The young Yates family lived in Staffordshire for just a couple of years. In that time their youngest son George was born but died two years later. Just suppose for one moment that I am right and that this single dressmaker of 64 years and probably the last surviving member of her own immediate family was the mother of Edward Cavendish Yates Snr.
But where did he go? Who brought Edward up?
Mecham Name Origin, Meaning and Family History
Where did he reappear from in ? Did she ever see her son or her grandchildren? Did Edward know his mother was alive and living in Chelsea? He spent his working life teaching music and living like a gentleman, but when he died I think there was little or no money to support his unmarried daughters. Where had his education and money come from?
