Mary Trevan's van der Band Family History Page

van der Band Family in Cornwall from 1721 - 1753, and Stoke Damerel in the 1770's

The earliest van der Band I have on my family tree is John Vanderband. I expect that it not how his parents would have written it.

He had moved to the parish of Antony in the south east of Cornwall by the time he married there in 1721. All events happenned at Antony unless otherwise indicated.

John Vanderband (-1776/7) married firstly Michal Poplestone (-1741) 9 July 1721
They had at least 6 children
1. Peter (1722-9) son of John and Michal Vanderband baptised 28 July 1722
  - Peter Vanderband buried 11 Feb 1729
2. Philippa (1725-) daughter of John and Michal Vanderband baptised 12 Mar 1725
  - Philippa Vanderband married Walter Pryn 5 Jun 1747
3. Margaret (1728-) daughter of John and Michal Vanderband baptised 27 Sep 1728
  - Margaret Vanderband married Jacob Popelstone 15 Jan 1753. It was possibly his 2nd marriage
    1. Mary Popelstone daughter of Jacob and Margaret Popelstone baptised 30 Nov 1766
    2. John Popelstone son of Jacob and Margaret Popelstone baptised 4 Feb 1770
4. John (1731-76/7) son of John and Michal Vanderband baptised 23 Feb 1731
  - John Vanderband married Allice Lean 26 Dec 1751
    1. Sarah (1753-) daughter of John and Alice Vanderband baptised 24 Apr 1753
      - Sarah Vanderband married John Roman on 12 May 1772 in Stoke Damerel
    2. Peter (1755-6) son of John and Alice Vanderband baptised on 5 May 1755
      - Peter Vanderband buried 6 Aug 1756
5. Peter (1734-73) son of John and Michal Vanderband baptised 16 Oct 1734
  - He married (illegible month) ye 10th 1748 at St. Johns
    Peter Vanderband of the parish of Antony and Sarah Wilcocks (-1788) otp married by banns
  - Peter Vanderband buried 17 Jul 1773
  - Sarah Vanderband buried 9 Jan or 1 Sep 1788
6. Jane (1738-9) daughter of John and Michal Vanderband baptised 17 May 1738
  - Jane Vanderband buried 23 Oct 1739
Michal Vanderband was buried 21 Nov 1743
John Vanderband married secondly Eliz. Raine 22 Jul 1744
1. Honor (1745-) daughter of John and Elizabeth Vanderband baptised 25 May 1745
  - Honour Vanderband married John Treliving on 31 Jan 1771
2. Susanna (1746-) daughter of John and Elizabeth Vanderband baptised 19 Sep 1746.
  - It was most probably her who married in Stoke Damerel, Devon on 16 Oct 1774 to Joseph Evans

In Antony in the East there was also a marriage on 23 Mar 1795 between Richard Oliver and Elizabeth Vanderband. Possibly this was John's widow, but surely she was the Elizabeth who died in 1781? So was there an Elizabeth who was not baptised here? And where did she fit in to this tree?

The name Vanderband was retained as a middle name by the Treliving family.
