John Cundlife or Condliffe or Cuncliffe
Information on the descendants of John Cundlife/Condliffe and Ann Brough was provided to the RBFO in January 2002 by Jane Allen of Staffordshire, England.
Research Note: There are three possibilities for the birth/christening of John Condliffe listed in the LDS Ordinance Index (and IGI) via the LDS Extraction Program. They are: John Cundlife, chr. 5 Mar 1601 in Ribchester, Lancashire, England (no parents listed); Johanes Cunliffe, chr. 25 Dec 1603 in Saint Mary, Blackburn, Lancashire, England (parent: Robti. Cunliffe); and John Conndliffe, chr. 6 May 1604 in Saint Peter, Bolton Le Moors, Lancashire, England (parent: John Conndliffe).
RBFO Statement: In July 2002, Jane Allen (of Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire, England) provided the RBFO with genealogical information on the descendants of Ann Brough--who was a daughter (born 1601, died 1640) of Richard Brough and Anne Wright. This genealogical information was reviewed by RBFO researchers (Ronald Dee Rex, John M. Brough, and R. Clayton Brough) during 2003-2006, and placed on the RBFO website in October-November 2006.
Information for this record was obtained from the 1988 RBFO book, p.67, and from information provided to the RBFO between 1995-2000 by Catharine Ann Brough Hind of England.
IGI: Cuncliffe
Information for this record was obtained from the 1988 RBFO book, p.68-69, and from information provided to the RBFO between 1995-2000 by Catharine Ann Brough Hind of England.
Burial for Richard Brough, 27 April 1659, was obtained from the Brough Staffordshire Burial Index in possession of the RBFO, February 2001.
Also, the 2000 RBFO book, "The Broughs of Staffordshire, England, and their English, American and Australian Descendants," states the following on pages 70-71:
In the 1980's the RBFO published two books which stated that "two children were born to Richard Brough...and his wife Rebecca Fowler: Richard...and Thomas, both born in 1650 and both possibly twins." (1981 RBFO book, p.51; and 1988 RBFO book, pp. 28-29.) This conclusion was based on the fact that "Fowler of Salt" in the 1663-1664 Heralds' Visitations of Staffordshire (p..140) stated that "Rebecca," the daughter of "Richard Fowler of Bartomley in Cheshire" and "wife to Richard Brough" of "Wyndeyates" Staffordshire, had a son named "Richard" who was "13" years of age in "1663." Based on this fact, RBFO researchers initially accepted this Richard Brough, who was supposedly born in 1650, as one of the direct ancestors of Richard Brough who married Mary Horleston in 1825–and who the Richard Brough Family Organization is named after. Unfortunately, later research did not uncover any other listing in available religious or civil documents of such a Richard–although his brother(?) Thomas appeared in the Leek Parish Register. Also, this supposed Richard of 1650 was not even mentioned in the Will of his father(?), Thomas Brough, dated 18 October 1654–as was his brother(?) Thomas. Needless to say, the preponderance of evidence against the existence of this supposed Richard of 1650 continued to grow until RBFO researchers agreed with the following 1992 statement by Catharine Ann Brough Hind of England:
"Richard son of Richard and Rebecca as depicted on the Fowler pedigree is nobodies ancestor. If as his uncle declared at the 17thc visitation Rebecca did have a son called Richard, he died in infancy. No, I believe that what [his] Uncle recollected was that his sister had a child who carried a Brough family name...and he misremembered whose. Remember that distance, travel and communication were scant and entrusted to memory."
