Notes for John HINDLE
At last we have located the marriage of John Hindle and Elizabeth Lawton. A marriage for John Hindle and Elizabeth Lawton is recorded at St. Mary's Church in Oldham, Lancashire, 14 February 1820. The couple is listed as from Cow Hill, a small village outside of Oldham. John is listed as a tinworker. It then appears they moved a short distance away, across the Tame River to Dukinfield near Stalybridge in Cheshire. Both Oldham and Stalybridge are in the modern day Greater Manchester county government area in the region known as Tameside.
John and "Betty" Hindle have 4 children recorded at Old St. George Church in Stalybridge: Ann, Mary, Elizabeth Lawton and Jane. Daughter Elizabeth Lawton Hindle is the key to believing that these are our ancestors. The dates of baptisms of the daughters coincide with dates calculated from information given at the death of the daughters. The 1825 Stalybridge Directory lists John Hindle as a tinworker which matches the marriage document.
The Hindle family, at least Elizabeth and her children, may have come over to New Jersey from England between 1830 and 1832. This is surmised from the birthplace and date of Jane (England 1829) and the 1832 Paterson Census. There is a John Hindle and his family in Samuel Fisher's Census 1832 as living in a house on John St. with 1 male, 4 females, 3 under 16. This correlates with John and Elizabeth's known family at the time.
It is possible that John came over prior to 1831 to establish himself before the rest of his family came. Thus far no immigration or passenger list has been discovered which would indicate when or where the Hindles entered the country.
John Sr. died 30 May 1849 at age 50 which gives a birth year of 1799. This information was from St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Paterson. John was originally buried at Sandy Hill and was transferred in 1888 when Sandy Hill was being dismantled. There is no verification for birth thus far. Ages were not given on the marriage document, nor parents' names.
