Tennyson, Michael
Tennyson, Ralph
Tennyson, The Poet-Laureate [Alfred],
(Lord)
Ralph Tennyson, who died in
1735, father of Michael Tennyson of
Preston, co. York [Yorkshire County,
ENGLAND], is the first recorded
ancestor of the family of which the Poet-Laureate
is so distinguished an
ornament. There is, however, in the
family a tradition of long-standing that
it descends from a collateral relative of Archbishop
Tenison. According to
Sir Bernard Burke's Landed
Gentry, the families of Tenison, of
Kilronan
Castle, and Tenison, of Port
Nelligan, both of IRELAND, belong to the same
house as the archbishop. If any of
your numerous genealogical
correspondents can assist me to connect Ralph
Tennyson with the family
of (Dr.) Thomas Tenison, I
shall be much obliged.

CORRESPONDENCE: 1891/1892, in
The East Anglian; or Notes
and Queries
on subjects connected with the
counties of Suffolk, Cambridge, Essex &
Norfolk, [England],

Vol. IV, 1891-1892,
page 367,
Reverend John Tenison, Rector
of Downham (Ely), A.D. 1596. - - -
This is the John Tenison
referred to in Mr. Mullinger's History of the
University of Cambridge (Vol. 2, pages
290-291, University Press 1884),
in connection with a dispute over his royal
nomination for a Fellowship
at Peterhouse. There was a petition
against him, and the petitioners
said, "whereas, of late the thirds of
his mother have fallen to him;
besides a lease yielding a yearly rent
exceeding the rate of living allowed
by our statutes; having otherwise of certain
worshipful friends, very
good and sufficient allowance by the
year." He subsequently became
Rector of Downham in the Isle of Ely.
His wife's name was Ann, and
he was grandfather of Archbishop Tenison.
I should be glad to know
who were his parents; who were the
"worshipful friends", and any
circumstances connected with him, and the
properties referred to, and
what was his wife's name and descent.

Desire information and parentage of
following:
. . . James Tinney of Garrard
County, Kentucky, [USA] . . .
From: Mrs. Richard L. Jordan

Falls Church, Virginia 22042 [USA]
LETTERS: 11 July 1977, 16 Aug 1977 and
05 Aug 1979
I should have given you more information
about my father [Milton W. Tinney;
died A.D. 1958]. The "Census of
1880: you talked about actually listed him twice:
(1) In Nueces County (Corpus Christi),
[Texas, USA], where he and his mother
("Esequia") were apparently
visitors of my Dad's uncle (Samuel);
(2) In Duval County (San Diego), Tex[as,
USA], Dad is counted as living with his
father (Thomas [Tinney]) and
mother (Rosa). I found out only recently
from an
aunt in Texas that Dad's mother's full name
was "Rosa Esequia" - He of course
was
born in A.D. 1878. Anyway, my father
lived in Corpus Christi most of his early years,
but spent a lot of time in San Diego and
Benavides, living with relatives. Duval County
was ranching country, primarily. Dad
was a newspaper printer ( mainly a linotypist and
proofreader) for over 50 years before his
retirement. He died in 1958. He was well
traveled in following that occupation and
worked all over the country. For instance,
he married my mother after meeting her in
Oklahoma, [USA], years ago. I was born
in Dayton, [Montgomery County], Ohio, [USA],
in A.D. 1921. My brother in
Nashville and sisters in Nashville,
Louisville and Tulsa. A sister and I were raised in
Galveston, Texas by an aunt there.
After the War, I came back to Oklahoma to live.
-
My grandfather, Thomas [Tinney],
was a pioneer resident of Corpus Christi and came
there along with his father (Edward B.
[Tinney]), mother and brothers and sister in
A.D. 1853. The family left Illinois
and came by steamboat to New Orleans, eventually
reaching Corpus [Christi]. The town of
Corpus Christi had been founded only a few
years before his arrival. Grandpa
served in the Civil War as a Confederate Officer,
becoming a newspaper publisher in the Corpus
Christi area during the 1870s and 1880s.
-
My great-grandfather (Edward B. [Tinney]),
separated from his first wife in A.D. 1855,
after reaching Texas. He returned to
New Orleans, [Louisiana, USA], where he married
his second wife, living in St. Charles
Parish, Louisiana, raising another family. Before
migrating South, Edward lived
in Pekin, Illinois, [USA], with his first family, and was
included in the 1840 and 1850 censuses of
Illinois.
-
Edward's father, Nathaniel
[Tinney], left Petersburg, Virginia, [USA],
after the
Revolutionary War and settled in Springfield
(Washington County) Kentucky, [USA].
That's were my great-grandfather was born. .
. .
-
My primary source, besides from what my
father told me, is a biographical sketch
taken from the Old Settlers of
Tazewell County. This narrative was sent Dad
by
relatives of William A. Tinney,
who were still living (at that time - back in the 1940's),
in Pekin, Illinois. You will note the
references to Nathaniel [Tinney] and
Caroline Marshall.
-
In the History of Tazewell County,
Illinois, published 1879, I find references to
John M. Tinney. There is
a reference to John M. Tinney who followed
William A. Tinney as the
"coroner" in A.D. 1872, in Tazewell County. John
also lived in Pekin during 1843-44,
according to the book. There are other references
to Charles, R. M., Nathaniel,
Caroline (Marshall) and Sarah Jane (Yager).
. . .
you refer to Nathaniel Tinney
as a "surety" in the marriage [bond] of Polly
Tinney to
Daniel Potts on 06 Dec 1791,
at Petersburg, [Independent City], Virginia, [USA].
[Research Note: Petersburg Virginia is near
or in Dinwiddie County, Virginia. From
LDS FHC film # 029, 294 the Personal
Property List of Dinwiddie County, Virginia,
for the years A.D. 1785 to A.D. 1790, shows:
A.D. 1788 - Tiney, John, as
proprietor, also listed as:
John Tinney as above 16 years
of age -1; and owned 2 horses.
A.D. 1789 - dated 13 June - Tinney,
Thomas, as proprietor, also listed as above
16 years of age. Thus, in A.D. 1791,
when Nathaniel Tinney was Surety, there were
in the immediate area, two additional Tinney
males over 16, John and Thomas Tinney.]

LETTER: 12 Oct 1980
I am interested in the Tinney
line, because my great-grandmother was
Angeline Tinney, born circa
1822 in New York, USA. She was married before
A.D. 1840 to Charles Benjamin High
and they were living in Warren County,
New York when the U.S. 1840 Census was
taken. They had two sons at that time
and the households around them were also Tinney's.
Later, they lived in Troy,
New York, because I have records for two
more sons, one of which was my
grandfather. Angeline (Tinney)
High, died 11 Aug 1889, Oconto County,
Wisconsin and is buried in the old Methodist
Cemetery. She was a widow in the
1880 U.S. Census. Angeline
(Tinney) High had six (6) children:
William Benjamin High, Lyman
Tinney High, Charles Edward High,
George Washington High, Mertte
High and Mary Elizabeth High.
In the same Court House record books, there
is a record for Thomas Tinney-
he died 23 April 1891 and is buried in the
Catholic cemetery in the City of Oconto,
Oconto County, Wisconsin. He was
married to Winifred Consgrove, daughter of
John Consgrove and Mary
Bennett; she born 25 Dec 1838 in Ireland. . . .
A son named William Gregory Tinney
was born 06 Mar 1872, Oconto, Wisconsin;
(died 13 June 1899 - taken from Deaths, Vol.
4, page 50).

My cousin Hilda Tinney, sent
me the brochure . . . about the Tinney family.
We are
descendants of Thomas and Catherine
D. Tinney, of Lebanon County, Pennsylvania.
My cousins from all over the United States
have worked with me on this history and it
will go to the Hummelstown Historical
Society, when done. I will ask if Nelda
would
let
me send you her address.
Thomas Tinney was a farmer of
Hanoverdale, Lebanon County, Pennsylvania,
listed in the U.S. 1850 Census as age 44
years, born therefore circa A.D. 1806;
Spouse of Catherine Dillmara,
born [1850- age 39 years], Manhiem, Pennsylvania, USA;
they were the parents of:

2/12 year].
[Found this in one of my research papers:
Richard Tiney, a soldier in the Revolutionary
War, and his son Charles C. Tiney,
who was born in Washington County, New York,
came to Amboy Township in 1838. The
old soldier died soon afterwards and was buried
in the old Edgar Cemetery, South of Seward.

Also, from another contact:
My grandparents immigrated to the United
States from Ireland in the 1880's. Both came
to
Philadelphia in different years. William
Tinney and Sara Scott met and married
in
Philadelphia. They went west via
covered wagon to Arizona and later Nebraska. Had nine
children, but only two sons survived, William
Tinney and Thomas Tinney. At the
turn of
the century, the family moved back East, so
the sons could be educated in Eastern
Universities. William Tinney
graduated from the University of Pennsylvania, M.D.;
Thomas Tinney, B.A. from the
University of Maryland. Thomas Tinney
taught at the
University of Maryland until a youthful
death, due to a heart condition. William Tinney
married Dorinda Musselman;
they lived in Strasburg, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania;
they had two sons: William Scott
Tinney and John Thomas Tinney.
I was sent the name and address of this Tinney:
John T. Tinney, 411 Cumberland
Street, Lebanon, Pennsylvania 17042.
His brother, Dr. William S. Tinney,
lives at 190 East Roseville Road, in
Lancaster, Pennsylvania 17604. Both wrote me
very nice letters and Dr.
Tinney was so interested.
I have found Tinneys here locally in
Framingham,
but English, and in the other parts of the
State of Massachusetts, Irish; even one
Jewish Tinney,
so it does cover much area. I do thank you for the
letter from
Mrs. Steward as we just might be
relations and seem to both have the same
ancestors.]

I have a will probated 18 Feb 1782, in
Chester County, Pennsylvania, [USA], for the
estate of John Temple of Caln, (born
circa A.D. 1730, Chester County). James Tinney
is the executor of this estate. If the
Levi Temple genealogy of the Temple family,
printed in A.D. 1901, is correct; then, this
said James Tinney was either married to
Sarah Temple, at that time, or
thereafter. She was the daughter of John Temple,
deceased, in the estate. I would very
much like to correspond with any descendants
of this line. I am also willing to
exchange information with anyone researching the Temple
surname.

he played the 'fiddle' in a dance band in his younger days
(long before my time). . . . I would
be much obliged if you

LETTER: 01 Sep 1989
I am only connected with the Tinney
family through a marriage in A.D. 1845, when
a nephew of William Henry Tinney
married a member of my family. This Tinney
family came originally from South Barrow in
Somerset, [ENGLAND], moving to
Gillingham in Dorset and then in around A.D.
1776 to Salisbury in Wiltshire,
[ENGLAND].
William Tinney, (father of William
Henry Tinney), was a solicitor and had ten (10)
children; [only two (2) boys, John
Pern Tinney and William Henry Tinney].
Neither John nor William
had any surviving children.
In A.D. 1888, my great-grandfather (dad) was
left 2,000 pound in the Will of a
Mrs. Anna Tinney,
(wife of William Henry Tinney; [he
having died in A.D. 1871]).
A John Tinney and his wife Ann
were mentioned in the will, living in Cornwall,
[ENGLAND], so there may have been Tinney
cousins in Gillingham, though I know
nothing of them.
If you are interested in more details, I
could send you a copy of Mrs. Tinney's (T's)
Will. [There were a few great nephews,
nieces, etc.], and I have more details of
John Tinney, (William
Henry Tinney's brother John Pern Tinney).
John P. and
William H. were
both solicitors; W. H. Tinney was a Barrister
and spent most of his
life in London, [ENGLAND].
I also have a copy of a drawing of John
Tinney and small photo of a drawing of
W. H. Tinney. I look
forward to hearing from you if you are interested in any of
this.

Over the years I have written to many people
in the hope that I may find a relative with
more information than I have. I have
enclosed the TINNEY Chart as far as my
research
has proven. [I wish to] continue to
fine tune my chart and hopefully add some flesh to
the skeleton that I now have. I am at
the stage that I want to know where my ancestors
originated from, what they did, the type of
life they lived, why they settled in Cornwall
and the like. You are very welcome to
include any of my research . . . I hate to think
that someone else has to go through the
incredible cost, in time and money, that I, you
and all those that have given me
information, have gone through, when it is unnecessary.
The Tinney I am researching is
John Tinney of Tregenna Farm, St. Columb
Minor,
Cornwall, England. He and his wife Louisa
had numerous children, two of which were:
Catherin Tinney, born 25 Sep
1842, and
Mary Tinney, born 28 Jan 1844.
These sisters married Grigg brothers, Harold
Grigg
and Isaace Grigg, and all
migrated to Australia on the "Great Australia",
in A.D. 1862.
I am a descendant of Harold Grigg and
Catherin Tinney

I can't give you much information, but I can
tell you that Tinney is a
family name from Middle and North Cornwall,
[ENGLAND]. There are at least
several distinct Tinney
families there, and part of the family oral history is that
emigration to the U.S. goes back to the 17th
century. My guess is that not all U.S.
Tinney's are from the same
branch of the family.

The patriarch of the family, I believe, is
also named John Tinney.
My father knows infinitely more about this
than I. His email

Nice to here from another Tinney.
I've never met one, other than my Dad.
Maybe that's why, even though I've married,
I've kept my maiden name.
My father is James Joseph Tinney
and he is IRISH. He was born 08 May 1914.
At the age of about 5 or 6 years, his mother
and father either abandoned him and his
sister or they were killed in a car
accident. The sister went to live with relatives in
a
Pennsylvania, [USA] coal mining town, and he
has never heard from her or them.
He was raised (in the Strattford/Lindenwald
area of south New Jersey, around
Philadelphia, [USA]), by his aged (75 years
old), but strong IRISH grandmother.
His grandmother cared for him and later
visited him. At 15 years, he started working
at Budd Company in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania, [USA]. James Joseph Tinney
went to war; then, married Roberta M.
Green from Berlin, New Jersey, [USA].
They had two girls. My sister's name
is Pamela Lynn Clark, born 13 Nov 1953.
She has four (4) children. Dad
developed Alzheimer's at about 45 years old, when
I was born. The little I know comes from my
Mom. I am: Diane Linda Tinney,
born 06 Feb 1960; married to James
Dixon Keene, III. My husband was born
25 Mar 1955. We have one child:
David Zachary Keene, born 25
Jan 1990.
I would appreciate any leads or information
you could pass on to me.

We are probably related, as both of us have

My grandfather was Dr. Franklin A.
Tinney.
My father, now deceased, was Paul E.
Tinney, born 05 Jan 1920, Capon Bridge,
West Virginia, [USA]. I, David
R. Tinney, was born 01 Oct 1951, Montgomery,

I have not attended many of the family

know if you can get in touch with Aunt
Sissy in San Antonio, Texas, [USA],
through E-Mail. I have heard
that she has done some research into our

[USA], I have met some Tinneys who do
not seem to be closely related. When I
first moved here there were only three
Tinneys in the phone book.
I never contacted Patricia but George
Tinney
contacted me. I read his obituary a

George Tinney informed me that
he was a descendant of Samuel Tinney
who
came to Texas with his brother William

I have five (5) brothers and a sister.
My father was born in SOUTH AFRICA and his

1882, New Albany, Floyd, Indiana, [USA],

May 1882. He was a Ship Carpenter
and along with his descendants worked in the
ship building industry at New Albany,
Indiana. The family helped build the
famous Robert E. Lee and other steamboats.
Later they worked on railroads. I am James

I am located in SCOTLAND on the Isle of Skye.
I am trying to trace my great-great-

IRELAND/Donegal. Thomas Tinney
was born around the 1800s, presumably in Donegal.
My research done at The Register House in
Edinburgh, has their son Hugh Tinney's death
certificate in 1870, with both parents not
marked as being deceased. If they were still alive,
in IRELAND, there is a chance their death
certificates there might be recorded. This would
give me a location for them, which I need as
a starting point. Although my great-great
grandfather, Hugh Tinney, born
A.D. 1828, emigrated to SCOTLAND, between 1846 and
1866, he could have had brothers or sisters
who emigrated in the other direction, to the

Her 3xgrandfather is:
Richard Tinney of St. Columb

Richard Tinney, born 08 Mar
1777, who married Ann Jacka of Colan 22 Dec
1804.
His father was:
Richard Tinny of St. Columb
Minor, born 05 Oct 1745 who married Grace Stribly.
The next generation back is John Tinny
who married Elisabeth Martyn of
St. Columb Minor 24 May 1740. His
father is possibly:
Richard Tinny who married Margaret
Penvose 30 Jan 1702 at St. Columb Minor.
They christened a son John Tynny
on 02 Feb 1703.
The question is, are we on the right track?

From: rgham@stripe.Colorado.edu (Richard
"Dick" G. Ham)
Organization: MCDB University of Colorado,
Boulder
As a Tenney descendant from a
family that was probably Tinney earlier, I was
fascinated to discover your extensive data
on the Tinney surname worldwide and
through history. My branch of the Tinney
family settled in Washington County,
Maine, [USA]. My great
grandfather was Philander W. Tenney,
originally from
Centerville, Washington Co., Maine, born
about 1843. His father was
Timothy Tenney, born about
1814. The 1850 census shows an abundance of
Tenneys in Washington County,
mostly in Centerville and Columbia Falls.
Previous census reports show a gradual shift
from Tinney to Tenney in the
early
1800s. Most, if not all of the Tenneys
in that region appear to be descendants of
George Tinney, who was an
early settler in the area. He and his children are
described in some detail in Maine
Families in 1790, Vol. 3, pages 275-276, edited
by Ruth Gray, Picton Press, 1992.
The book provides detailed information,
including the names of his parents, George's
marriage in 1759 to Bethia Elwell,
in Falmouth, Cumberland County, Maine, the
birth and marriage dates for all of
George's children.
[Please] add all available Tenney information
from Washington
County, Maine, [USA]. There are
actually still some living there
today. In addition,
several, including my ancestors moved west
to Washington Territory in about
1888,
shortly before it became a state. If
you are interested, I would be happy
to provide
the information that I have. Perley Leighton (Perleyltn@aol.com),
who does family
lookups through the Washington County, Maine
GenWeb page, states that my lineage
is in fact descended from George
Tinney, Sr., through his son Samuel Tinney/
Tenney and grandson Timothy
Tenney. Perley informed me of an 800+
page book
on "Early Pleasant River Families"
by Leonard Tibbetts and Darryl Lamson,
published last year. It can be ordered
from Darryl (501 So. Mitchell St.,
Warrensburg, MO 64093 [USA]) for $59.50
postpaid. He told me that it has twelve
[12] pages on the Tenneys/Tinneys
and includes the entire lineage from the parents
of George Tinney, Sr. through
the children of Philander Tenney, including my
grandmother, Laura Belle Tenney.
I have barely started on my own genealogy.
When my wife and I began pursuing family
history, we decided to start with hers,
since doing both at once would be too time
demanding (at least until I retire in another
year or two). We are beginning to
accumulate enough of her history so that we could
set up a web page (or set of pages).
Part of her ancestry is in Sweden, where the
records are fantastically detailed.

Maggie, and I assume her

My grandmother was Claire Marie Tinney
who was born at Lafourche
Crossing, Louisiana. She married Philip
Luke Whitney on 28 Apr 1919,
at St. Martinville, Louisiana. She was
the daughter of Stephen Douglas
Tinney (commonly referred to
as "DaDa"). Stephen
Douglas Tinney
was born 26 Aug 1860 at Boutte in St.
Charles Parish, Louisiana, and he
married Lelia Hortense Vitter
of Grand Coteau, Louisiana, 10 Feb 1891,
LaPlace, St. Charles Parish, Louisiana.
Stephen Douglas [Tinney] was the
son of Edward Benton Tinney
and Laura M. Beelman. I have that
Edward Benton [Tinney]
married Laura on 23 Dec 1860 in St. Charles
Parish,
Louisiana. Information from family
sources says that he was born possibly
around 1813 in Pekin, Caswell County,
Illinois, but I have not found verification of
this yet. Laura was the
daughter of John M. Beelman and Mary
Frances Delico,
who were married on Long Island, New York,
07 May 1831, we believe. Their lines
stop suddenly at that point. So far
all I have is that Nathaniel Tinney was the
father
of Edward Benton [Tinney]
and was possibly from Virginia. Nathaniel Tinney
married Caroline Marshall,
whom I also cannot find ancestry on. I do, however,
have a birthdate of 27 Apr 1770 for Caroline
Marshall and a death date of
20 Nov ????. I live in Thibodaux,
Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. In older records,
Thibodaux is sometimes referred to as
Thibodauxville (pronounced Ti-baa-dough).
There are many, many, many descendants of Nathaniel
Tinney and

Tinney Family
Story: aTale of Two Charles Tinney's Free Family Story
Submitted by rebecca remington Date
submitted Aug 11, 2007
[Well, my great-great grandfather was Charles Aurther Tinney
(who was the son of Darwin Tinney and Manerva Duell in East Palmyra, NY)
Charles Aurther Tinney married a younger woman named Laura (Lottie Jane) Warren
from Lyons, Wayne County, NY. They had one child and named him Charles Jackson
Tinney.
One day when Charles Jackson Tinney was a very young boy, his father went to
work "...
and never came home" (...this is the exact quote that I recall my grandmother
telling
me her
grandmother had told to her when she had asked where her grandfather was.).
It
turns out that
Charles Aurther had drowned in the Erie Canal, just outside of
Lyons, Wayne
County, NY. Sadly,
he never got to watch his son, Charles Jackson, grow up.
Years later, when Charles Jackson Tinney had grown into a man,
he married one
beautiful lady named
Mrytie Belle Tinney. Charles Jackson Tinney worked
on the railroad near Buffalo,
Erie County, NY. They
had three daughters, of which one of them
was my grandmother. Then they had a
little boy, my Uncle Fred.
Uncle Fred was just a baby
when one day, his father when to work and never came
home. Charles Jackson Tinney
had
been crushed between two railroad cars and died about 1922.
Sadly, he never
got to watch his son grow up either.]
