FamilyNo record yet ties them to their parents or their children, so the relationships above are the family tree's. 6 records that name them have been read, set out on this page. How this archive grades a claim →
None of the 5 relationships shown here is written in a record this archive has read. Every one comes from the family tree. That is not a claim that they are wrong — it is a statement about what has been checked, and on this site the difference is the point. How claims are labelled →
3 of these links sit above a graft. The archive has tested the join they hang from and rejected it — the D'Arcys of Hornby Castle are unevidenced, the Sneyds of Keele Hall disproved. The people are drawn because the tree carries them, and struck through because nothing attaches them to this family. Both grafts, in full →

HE IS IN THE PRINTED MADELEY REGISTER, AND DESCRIBED AS THIS ARCHIVE DESCRIBES HIM · a public search snippet of the Staffordshire Parish Register Society's Madeley volume reads “13 MARGARET D. OF WILLIAM SNEYD, WEAVER . 26 John Bourne 1 Margaret d. of William Sneyd 6 Thomas s. of…”, and another “bapt. July 19 THOMAS S. OF WILLIAM SNEYD OF GT. MADELEY” · THE WORD ‘WEAVER’ IS THE MATCH: this archive already had Samuel Sneyd baptised at Madeley All Saints on 4 June 1781, father WILLIAM SNEYD, WEAVER · CAUTION, AND IT IS NOT A SMALL ONE: the snippets carry NO YEARS, so a Margaret and a Thomas cannot yet be placed as Samuel's sisters and brother, only as children of a William Sneyd, weaver, in the same parish · the volume itself returns 401 without a borrow
