Warburton
Clans
Introduction
The Clans
Introduction
The
main activity of the Warburton One-name Study is to document
Warburton clans. A clan consists of all the Warburton descendants of an
earliest
known ancestor. A clan will also share a similar Y-chromosome DNA
profile. Where
a new profile is known to have been introduced through adoption or
illegitimacy
a new sub-clan is created, linked to the original clan. Similarly two
or more
clan may be shown to have a similar DNA profile that shows they are
linked,
although the exact nature of the link may be unknown. In some cases a
clan may
not yet have a known DNA profile, or sufficient profiles to prove it
applies all
the way back to the earliest known ancestor. In this case new profiles
might
change the clan structure.
Family
trees normally focus on the ancestors of a living person. In
contrast Descendant Charts focus on an historic figure and his
descendants.
Fellow Warburtons are invited to take ownership of their clan
documentation and
produce their Descendant Reports. If you are interested in owning your
clan
documentation simply send me an email by clicking here.
Alternatively
I will produce them based on available
data and to include a Descendant Chart plus narrative which will give,
as a
minimum, the name, known vital data (dates of birth, marriage and
death),
spouse, and children of each Warburton descendant. The tree will
include the
spouses of female Warburtons, and a note of their children where known,
but the
lines will be followed no further. The Report will also include
information on
its origin, and notes on any questionable data.
Top
The
Clans
Each
clan will be introduced on this page. The information will include the
name and dates of the earliest known ancestor(s), and a reference to
any DNA
profiles of members of the clan. The DNA
profiles themselves will be contained on the DNA Results spreadsheet
and
discussed on the DNA Project page. The Links panel will have links to
Descendant Chart(s) and a PDF file containing a Descendant
Report generated by a Family Tree program.
In
addition Family Web Cards and Person Sheets for all the clans are now
online and can be accessed here. There is a simple index to access
individual details, and the trees can then be navigated by clicking on
parents or children. To help find persons of interest, a detailed index
to the names, including dates and
places, and the clan to which the person belongs, is here.
It has 4110 names,
including 2658 Warburtons, and 2 Warburton-Lyttons.
A further 88 Warburtons are documented in a clan that is not in the
index.
Alternatively the earliest ancestors below can be used to find the start of a tree.
The
Warburtons of Arley Hall
Sir
Piers de Dutton adopted the name de Werberton in the 13th
century and so is the oldest known Warburton. He in turn was descended
from Adam
de Dutton who acquired estates at Warburton in Cheshire. The original
de Dutton
was Odard who arrived in Cheshire with the Norman Conquest and was
granted lands
and titles by Hugh d’Avranches, Earl of Chester. It is claimed that
Odard was
related to William the Conqueror, but in truth his origin is
undocumented.
The
family moved to Arley Hall in the 15th century. The last
Warburton at Arley Hall was Sir Peter, the fifth Baronet, who died
childless in
1813. The estate passed to a great nephew (son of his niece), and
although the
estate again passed down the female line a hundred years later, the
current
owner, Viscount Ashbrook, is a direct descendant of the Warburtons of
Arley.
The earliest ancestor is Adam de Dutton
(c1150 -1208). As
no known
male descendants survive today there is no DNA profile.
The
Warburtons of Garryhinch
Richard
Warburton (1637-1717), who acquired
considerable lands in Ireland, including the estate at Garryhinch, west
of
Dublin, was one of three brothers who went to find their fortune in
Ireland in
the middle of the seventeenth century. Their father was probably
Richard of
Dublin who is attested in the 1630s. The family has always claimed
kinship with
the Warburtons of Arley, with Richard of Dublin possibly being a
grandson of
Peter, the ancestor of the Warburtons of Hefferston Grange.
Portarlington
Golf Club was built on the old Garryhinch estate
and their website includes some of the family’s history. The family has
produced a number of interesting characters and their descendants are
spread
around the world. There are a number of sources for the Descendant
Report, including Burke’s
Colonial Gentry, and a chronicle
by James Arthur Warburton (1890-1982) of the Warburton family of Prince
Edward
Island.
The earliest ancestor is Richard Warburton
(dates unknown), husband of Elizabeth L'Estrange, and father of Richard (1637-1717) . DNA profile A8CQJQ relates
to a descendant of Richard’s brother George, and 6KU28H to a descendant
of
Richard himself. These profiles are sufficiently close, with just four
mismatches, to verify this as the profile for the whole clan.
The
Warburtons of Warburton Village
The
Warburtons ofWarburton Village are a very large clan, with over 700
Warburtons. Much of it was documented by MNorman Warburton (himself a
member) in his book Warburton: The Village and the Family.
I have added to it from other sources, including my own researches into
censuses. It includes one of the Warburton families of Sullivan County,
Pennsylvania, another branch in California, and branches in Yorkshire
and Staffordshire.
The earliest ancestor is Thomas Warburton
(circa 1557-1627). I have two DNA Profiles (FNG9UR and H63GPT) but they don't match, so one or both must be from a non-paternal event.
The
Warburtons of Edenfield
The
Warburtons of Edenfield have been documented back
to the 16th century when they were described as Gentlemen, raising
the possibility that they are a cadet branch of the Warburtons of
Arley. The
Descendant Report is based on a tree provided by Anthony Carter, with additional input
from
Nicolas Blackhurst.
The earliest ancestor is Thomas Warburton
(died after 1559). As yet no DNA Profile has been obtained.
The
Mongan Warburtons
In
1792 Charles Mongan, the future Bishop of Cloyne,
changed his name to Warburton, the name of his maternal cousins.
His
descendants form a second clan of
Irish Warburtons, though it is not yet known if Charles’s cousins are
of the
Garryhinch clan. Meanwhile Charles’s brother John is head of a family
who
retained the Mongan name (which was an anglicised version of their
father’s
name of O’Mungan. The Descendant
Report is generated from
information provided by Elaine Hopper of Australia,
who belongs to an Australian Mongan family who believe they are
descended from
John Mongan. They have also provided a DNA profile which therefore may
also be
that of the Mongan Warburtons (see code Mongan).
The earliest ancestor is Dominic O'Mungan
(1715- c1774).
The
Warburtons of Hale Barns
This is my own clan
and therefore the Descendant
Report is more detailed, though it is by no means complete. The oldest
known
ancestor is George Warburton (c1575-1639) of Hale Barns, though I have
a notion
that his father might be Thomas the Elder of Hale Barns who died in
1634. Only
one of George’s sons, John Warburton (c1608-1691) had multiple sons
(five) so
all lines of descent meet with him.
They were
originally a family of small landowners and
tenant farmers and the farmhouse they occupied is still occupied by
Warburtons
today. The My Genealogy page contains much more information on them.
The earliest ancestor is Thomas Warburton (circa 1550 - 1635).The
Descendant Chart is too big to be rendered in one chart and so has been
split into five, one showing the earliest generations, the others
showing the descendants of 3 sons of John Warburton (c1608-1691), that
is Thomas, John (2 charts for 2 wives), and Josiah. A future action is
to split the Descendant Report in a similar way. DNA profile OCP436
relates to this clan.
Three other clans are linked
by DNA. A
discussion on the links is documented here.
The clans are:
The Descendants of William Warburton of
Ashton-upon-Mersey
The earliest ancestor is William Warburton
(c1740-1820) who married Mary Kelsall at Ashton-upon Mersey in
1767. He is probably the William born in Mobberley in 1740 in the Hale Barns Clan. The family later moved
to Lancashire. DNA profile EQ5Y4A relates to this clan.
The Descendants of
William Warburton of
Widnes
The earliest ancestor is William Warburton who was born in
Widnes circa 1780. The Descendant Report, is based on
input from
Karen Stretton, Martin Coble and Rebecca Stone. DNA
profile JSCMJH relates to this clan.
The Descendants of
Hamlet Warburton of
Warrington
The earliest ancestor is Hamlet
Warburton (died 1700) who lived in Warrington and Woolton. The Descendant Report is,
based on The
Family History of Edward Gilbert O’Hagan Warburton, produced by Debrett
Ancestry Research Ltd., and provided by Frank Carlton O’Hagan
Warburton. DNA profile 88B8UN relates to this clan.
The
Descendants of Bancroft Warburton
A Warburton family
has been documented in the Great
Sankey area of Lancashire, close to the Cheshire boarder (actually it
is now
part of modern day Manchester and Merseyside). The family is descended
from Bancroft Warburton (1738-1805) who is probably the Bancroft
Warburton
christened
at Bowdon in 1738, the illegitimate son of Elizabeth Warburton and John
Bancroft. The Descendant Reportwas edited from a file provided by John Humphries with additions
from David
Warburton.
The earliest known
ancestor in the tree is
John Bancroft. As yet no DNA Profile has been obtained.
John Bancroft was
first married to Mary Warburton who was probably from the Hale Barns
clan. It is
likely that Elizabeth Warburton, Bancroft’s mother, and later John
Bancroft’s second wife, was related to Mary (possibly a cousin) but
this
cannot be proved. I have written a set of notes
on Bancroft which explore this possibility as well as other facts
surrounding Bancroft’s origins.
The
Warburtons of New South Wales
In 1839 Thomas Warburton (1817-1879) of
Leigh in
Lancashire, emigrated to New South Wales with his wife and young
son.
His parents, John and Ellen nee Rawlinson, are known, but nothing
earlier. Thomas’s descendants have been documented in some detail from information provided by Elaine Hopper and Harold
Warburton.
The earliest ancestor is John Warburton (no dates) husband of Ellen Rawlinson. As
yet no DNA Profile has been obtained.
The
Descendants of Peter Warburton of Wilmslow
The bulk of this clan are descendants of John Charles
Warburton born in 1808, in Wilmslow the illegitimate son of Alice Warburton. His descendants were mainly to be found in
Macclesfield, and in New Jersey. Alice’s father, Peter Warburton has
yet to be
linked to a known clan. The Descendant Report is based on information provided by Cathy Warburton.
The earliets ancestor is Peter Warburton (c1746). DNA profile
T6895T
relates to tJohn Charles descendants.
The
Shocklach Warburtons
Shocklach
lies in the South West corner of Cheshire
near the Welsh and Shropshire boarders. I received information from
Robert
Warburton that had been collected by his father and himself over a
number of
years. Robert is descended from Thomas, the illegitimate son of
Elizabeth,
though which of two possible Elizabeths is uncertain. I have extended
this
material using primarily information gleaned from censuses. The
Descendant
Report includes
Robert’s own descent from Thomas, the older Shocklach family that at
least
one, and probably both Elizabeths belonged to, and three other extended
families
from the area who are probably related.
There
are 5 charts. The earliest ancestors are: Thomas Warburton (d. 1730),
James Warburton (c1784), Samuel Warburton (1806), Joseph Warburton
(1813-bef 1868), and Thomas Warburton (1848-1931). There is no DNA
profile.
The
Weaverham Warburtons
Peter
Warburton probably came from Grappenhall but
brought up his family in Weaverham, near Northwich, Cheshire. Various
descendants moved to places such as Daresbury, Preston Brook,
and Thelwall, near the Lancashire border. The Descendant Report is based on a spreadsheet provided by Alan Entwistle. A descendant of
the
clan was Adrian Warburton whose exploits are described in Warburton's
War: The Life of Wing Commander Adrian Warburton, DSO, DFC by
Tony Spooner. There is also an interesting
Wikipedia entry
for him.
The earliet ancestor is Peter Warburton (bef 1747- aft 1778). There is no DNA profile.
The
Warburtons of Sandbach
This clan
originates in Sandbach in the early 19th
century. The Descendant Report is based on information provided by Daphne Warburton with additional
input
from Heather Jones.
The earliest ancestor is Joseph Warburton (undated), father of Ralph (c1817-1886). DNA profile BCK82G relates
to this clan.
The
Warburtons of Turton
This clan is based
on a tree of the descendants of
James of Turton which has been placed on Ancestry by Michael Wood, with
additional information from Beryl Monaghan. However an alternative
burial found
for James's son Samuel has split the tree in two. In addition research
into
early wills has identified some earlier families whose link to James is
not
obvious. The Descendant
Report therefore
includes three separate trees, and there are 3 charts.
The
earlist ancestors are: Thomas Warburton (d. 1674), the unnamed father
of George (undated), and John (d. 1738), and Samuel Warburton of Bolton
(c1790-1843). There is no DNA profile.
The
Warburtons of Coppenhall
I was able to flesh out this clan as
a result of a query and a small piece of information from Betty
DesRoche (nee Warburton). It originates with Peter, born in Church
Coppenhall about 1771 and includes branches in Over, Cheshire, and
Preston,Lancashire. There is no DNA profile.
The
Warburtons of West Virginia
This
clan was provided by Kim Johnson of West Virginia. Its originates with
a Thomas who emigrated to the USA before 1849. He is believed to come
from Nottinghamshire, though no evidence for this has been found. DNA
profile YE5B4X relates to this clan but is unmatched.
The
Warburtons of Tottington, Lancashire
Ann Cooper of
Colorado
has documented the descendants of Richard Warburton (c1716-1797) from
Tottington, near Bury, Lancashire. It includes a Descendant
Report, and a Descendant
Chart with Index. As yet its contents are not included in the
general Name
Index. The
Warburtons of Bowdon and Timperley
A
Warburton family occupied Pool Bank farm in Bowdon
in the early 17th century and probably earlier. The earliest known
ancestor is Thomas Warburton (c1610-1655), though there is a will for
Joan of
Bowdon dated 1592. The family later
moved to Timperley and has been documented by a descendant who still
lives
there. A Descendant Report is planned. DNA profile TJWSEW relates to
this clan.
Other
clans
Other
clans will be added as they are discovered and
information becomes available. Submissions are always welcome.
