My Cottingham Ancestor: Cottengim

Comments:
Descendants of your (our common) ancestor came to have the name spelled Cottengim, Cottongim, and variants as long ago as 1800. My anc. crossed Cumberland c.1806. Clay, Knox, Laurel Cos. of KY were full of them.

I can't believe I happened upon this site. My grandmother was a Cottingham and had spent her entire life researching her past. Traced the family back to Ambrose, the naughty Quaker. (Unfortunately, she used her research findings to gain entry to the Daugh ers of the Confederacy! I have her tattered certificate from 1910.)Her thread of the family left Md. for Ky. and Mo. I have newspaper clippings from 1904, letters from 1897, etc. from the Cottinghams in Kansas City. A.D. Cottingham was my g.g. grandfather s brother, and was, so the papers said, the "richest man in Kansas City" due to his horse and mule business. I've got tons of old photos, and a short but sweet diary that Josephine Cottingham wrote in 1904. If anyone's interested, send me e-mail. Thanks!

Since retirement, I have become interested in the Cottingham geneology. I have information accumulated by my grandfather showing my part of the Cottingham family straight back to Thomas. This is a great source with lots of info to digest. When I get my family tree in order, I will share it with you.

I am married to a David Cottingham, son of John Samuel Cottingham whose father was James Robert Dixon Cottingham. The Cottingham group which my husband's family descends from are 'United Empire Loyalists' who settled in the Eastern Townships of Quebec during the American civil war. They believe the family to be originally from North Carolina and that Thomas Cottingh m was the earliest and first Cottingham of record.

My Cottingham Ancestor: John Cottingham

Comments:
Although John Cottingham was born in Dublin in 1786 it is assumed because of his English surname, that earlier generations came from Cottingham via Neston on the Wirral in Cheshire. A famous Cottingham was a goldsmith in Dublin well before my ancestor. It is thought that John Cottingham married Helen Field and their son also John was born in Dublin between 1811 and 1819. Both father and son came to England and settled in Manchester about 1825. Other children were Catherine Cottingham c1822+ and Margaret. The youngest known son was Edward Cottingham born in Manchester between 1828 and 1833, Edward was my G.Great Grandfather of whom I have a photgraph endorsed on the back by my Grandmother "Edward Cottingham, the greatest grandfather in the world" John Cottingham senior ran a Marine Store or Furniture brokers in Manchester whilst Edward found work on the railway. Thhe family were Roman Catholic. I am currently searching Dublin records for proof of the birth of John Cottingham.

Direct decendant of Thomas Cottingham who received a grant of land called Vulcans Vineyard as reported in Lord Baltimore's rent rolls. This tract was surveyed March 10, 1677. Thus our family stems from this area of Snow Hill, Maryland.
