The current banner shows Alnwick Castle, in Northumberland - a county in the far north east of England, bordering Scotland.  This region is home to a number of Appleby lines - and our DNA project has confirmed genetic connections between several of these, which also match lines in Canada, USA and Ireland.

We know that although some branches of James and Ann Bell's line remained in Hurworth in Co Durham for several generations, other settled in other parts of County Durham and also in Yorkshire.  

 

Also, we know that a number of descendants of this line emigrated to Canada, America and Australia.  If you have any information about this family, do please get in touch.  It is likely that there are a number of living descendants of this line living in England, Canada and Australia.

 

I am grateful to Neal, who has recently contacted me with further information about some of the descendants of George Appleby and Eleanor Bellwood.  Neal's ancestor Henry Appleby joined up in WW1 Lance Corporal 23rd Bn Northumberland Fusiliers (4th Tyneside Scottish) kia 1/7/1916 aged 37 on 1st day of the Battle of the Somme.  His name appears on the Thiepval Memorial.

 

We have also received a lot of information about the family of John Robert Appleby, who is part of the George and Eleanor Bellwood branch of this line.  The chart has been updated, but I still need to add the new names to the Name List - I hope to complete this soon!

You can also read some Memories of Hurworth and a little about the history of the village here

I am also delighted to report that we have now received the DNA results for a descendant of this line - and they are a match with the lines of Robert Appleby of Eryholme and Thornaby on Tees and Thomas Appleby of Leeds.  So we now know that these three lines are ALL connected to the ancient line of Henry Appleby of Kirkby Malzeard.
