Suddenly realised that i don't think I said in my previous post when my (alleged) ancestor, Charles Bates, was born which was 1839/40.

I am trying to trace an ancestor of mine called Charles Bates who records appear to show was born in Church Minshull about 1839/40. Unfortunately other info. says he was born in Macclesfield. Would Macclesfield have been the registration district perhaps?

Is the name Bates known in the village at all perhaps in church records?

Any info. on any Bates family in the village would be gratefully received.

Many thanks,

D. Hardy.

Is there anyone in the village with a garage they would be prepared to let for a monthly fee - to someone in the village with a car but no parking space?

Was advised about the website by a friend Chris. My maiden name is Bolshaw and I visited the village with my parents in the mid nineties to see the family grave. What a coincidence then to learn that he and his wife Sue had moved to the village. I think that the website is really good.

Hi Church Minshull,
Passing through your village in May/June, love to stop off and have a pint in The Badger; is it open ?

Many Thanks,

John Little

1st March 2011 - does anyone know if the badger has reopened yet?  I'm visiting by boat and would love to revisit this old haunt of mine.  Thanks.

Just a quick thank you for doing this website.  It has made an interesting read and my husband and I very much look forward to watching our young family grow up in beautiful Church Minshull!
Best regards,

Hello

I've recently walked through your village on a long distance walk from Chepstow to Berwick upon Tweed. I'm doing the walk in stages and have completed nearly 300 of the 600 mile route. There is a website that tells you more about the walk at http://greatenglishwalk.wordpress.com/ I wondered if it might be of interest to your web site visitors and ask if you would consider making a link to the site. You will see there is a link to your site from The Great English Walk.

my grandparents Harriet and Tom Bellamy lived at Brook Cottage Church Minshull in the 1960 s then my gran lived in sheltered housing by the Badger. My father George Bellamy grew up in Church Minshull being attached to the fire station in world war 2 and worked at crewe works.
His ashes were scattered by the little bridge going up the lane to Brook Cottage with kind permission of Mr Parton.
Does anyone know current owner who lives in Brook Cottage as we are coming to the village on 15 th or 16th November 2010 and would like to put some flowers at the spot.
Please email any information

Hi.  I am only a Minshull by marriage but we do have a lot of family history.
Our branch goes back to Sir Michael de Minshull who faught with Richard the Lionheart in the Crusades, probably most of yours do too.  I live in Leominster and there was actually a Viscount Minshull of Leominster but I can't find out much about him.  I went on holiday to Cheshire last year to look for more knowledge about our branch which came from that area.  I stopped at Church Minshull and was very disappointed.  The pub was undergoing renovation and was closed, there was no one about and the road through was used as a short cut for a lot of traffic from one main road to another.  I couldn't get into the Church which was also closed and didn't spot any Minshull graves in the graveyard although I may have not looked hard enough.   I felt really let down!

Any idea whats happening with The Badger pub?

Replied on: 3:24pm 08-30-2010

We believe November is the new re-opening date.

Please can anyone tell me if the Badger Inn is open for business as yet ? (20 Aug 10)

Many Thanks

I left a message sometime ago asking if anyone knew anything about the Minshull family and where the name comes from.  Has anyone had any thoughts on the matter?  We are thinking of visiting Church Minshull again soon and would love to talk to someone about the history of the village if  possible.
