September 23, 2005 | Updated Joseph Rose Binks' page. Updated Emily Dorcas Binks' page. |

Updated John Rodger Binks', Henry Stuart Binks' and mary Christie Binks' pages. Updated William Binks' page. Updated Mary Ann Binks' page. Added 'Stuart' middle name to Russell (Stuart) Binks |
September 20, 2005 | Discovered the marriage date and location of
George Wright Binks to Mary Rose. It has shown that George could not
have married twice and the reference in the IGI to the birth and
Christening of a George Binks born to George Binks and ANN is most
likely to be an error, and should read George Binks and MARY. Further
explanation can be found on George
Binks page.
Also added George Wright Binks' daughter, Mary Binks. |
September 18, 2005 | Added more information to pages of Elizabeth Martha Binks, Joseph Binks (son of Joseph Rose Binks), Kate A (Amelia) Binks, Esther R. (Rose) Binks, Amy F (Florence) Binks, Frederick William Binks. |
September 14, 2005 | Updated information (dates & middle name) for Henry SAMUEL Binks (son of Joseph James Binks), also for siblings: Edith ROSE Binks, Elizabeth MAUD Binks, Percy GEORGE Binks & Gertrude ANNIE Binks. Updated Joseph James Binks' marriage date and location. Added Edith Rose Binks', Elizabeth Maud Binks' and Gertrude Annie Binks' marriage dates and locations. Added birth date and location for Joseph James binks' wife, Sarah Peek. Added Henry Samuel Binks' (brother of Joseph James Binks) birth date and location. Added Henry Thomas Binks' death date and location. Added approx. year of birth for Elizabeth Hambley Row (wife of James William Binks. Added middle name, birth date and location for Thomas COLIN Binks. Amended the spelling of Susanna Jane Binks' name making her Susannah (according to Birth certificate). Added death date for James Hume Binks. Added marriage date and location of Joseph Binks (son of Joseph Rose Binks) to Mary Ann \\. Corrected the birth date and marriage date of Adelina Binks. It appears that Adelina can't possibly be a daughter of Henry Thomas Binks and the original source for this information must be in error. There is no doubt that Adelina is linked to the tree in some way however, and further research will hopefully clarify this. |

May 3, 2003 | Discovery of our earliest known (Joseph) Binks' marriage to Sarah WRIGHT in Leeds, Yorkshire. This explains the 'Wright' middle name of two of their children and also suggests that the Binks family's origins were in the north of England. Full details on Joseph Binks' page. |
April 27, 2003 | After discovering a picture of the grave of "The
Inventor Of Wire Ropes", George Wright Binks at
www.findagrave.com, and a
reference to him and his link with Woolwich on a Japanese wire-rope
company's webpage:
http://www.rope.co.jp/data/histry.html , it became quite clear that
the 'George BIGHT Binks' that I discovered in the birth registers of St.
Mary Magdalene, Woolwich was indeed misread by myself. I'm usually quite
good at deciphering old handwriting styles, but on this occasion I
certainly should have read "Wright" instead of "Bight"; Particularly as
he had a sister, Emila Wright Binks, which I copied correctly. Having established that George Wright Binks is part of the family, I've also been able to add info on his son, William Henry Binks (who appears in the 1881 census as "William Wright Binks") and his known descendents. |
April 18, 2003 | Also added more info to Jabez Binks' page inc. maiden name of his wife. |
April 13, 2003 | Added more info on James Charles Binks and added daughter, Louisa Ann I. Binks. |
March 19, 2003 | Corrected Birth & Marriage dates and name of Spouse for Emila Binks on Binks Index page. Removed white background on Binks Index page for 'new info' that had been added in February. |
Feb.17, 2003 | Added 1865 as year of Susanna Jane Binks' marriage to Henery Fitsimmons. Added details of Henery & Susanna's 7 known children. Also, added child for Thomas Brown & Ann Rebecca Susannah (Binks). |
Feb.16, 2003 | 'Wright' middle name added to Emila Binks. Inadvertently omitted while copying notes. |
Feb.15, 2003 | Added 26 new BINKS ancestors! I was already aware of many of these people and families through information obtained from the IGI and the 1881 census. Since they were all born in the Woolwich, Kent area it always seemed likely that they were probably related to our Binks family in some way. 3 families in particular appeared to descend from 3 Brothers, a William, James & George Binks. After a day buried in a micro-fiche reader and endless reels of film I managed to find the brothers and sisters of our earliest known 'Joseph Binks'. These included a William, James & George. By comparing their birth dates with the marriage dates and locations of the William, James & George that I already knew about, it became clear that these were the same people, though I CANNOT PROVE IT. It does however seem to be the most logical conclusion to arrive at to explain the origins of the various strands of the Woolwich Binks people. We can of course be certain that our earliest known Binks ancestor, Joseph Binks (born 1785) had brothers and sisters (all confirmed) and were all the children of an EARLIER Joseph & Sarah Binks. I have temporarily added a WHITE background to each new addition in the Binks tree to make it easier to see at a glance what's new. Other updates include: Added birth and death dates for Catherine Louisa Binks (daughter of Colin Alexander Henry Binks). I've corrected the birth date for Joseph David Binks (should be March 6, NOT April 6). I've updated Caroline Sophia Binks' page to show that a witness at her wedding was Julia Grant who was soon after to marry Joseph David Binks. Henry Thomas Binks' wife was Ann Prentice (page updated). |
Oct.30, 2002 | Added approx. birth years for Thomas & Jessie Binks, and added their two known children, Alexander Binks and Charles Binks. All information is based on information found in the 1881 Canada Census. |
Oct.23, 2002 | Added death information for Sarah Binks (nee Davis); wife of Joseph Binks (Snr) |
Sept.24, 2002 | Added death information for Joseph Binks (born 1785) |
