Thomas was given the Freedom of the City of York in the Year 1694/5.
He was a Tailor.
!Thomas also has been linked to the Smurthwaite Family. On the Ancestral File
there is an Abraham Smurthwaite Jnr who has an acestor called Jane Bulmer. as
Of yet neither I, or the Descendants of this person have found the link yet.
30 dec 1995.Here are a few Bulmers who may be related to this part of the family:
Richard Bulmer married Frances english 31 Jan/Feb/Mar 1734 at Holy Trinity Kings Court, York (Also known as Christ Church, York)
I have found three children for this couple:
Edward Chr 12 Oct 1738, Buried 7 Nov 1738.
Abigail and Jane, twin daughters of Richard Bulmer, a Taylor (sic) Chr 13 Feb 1741.Also a Daniel Bulmer marriedElizabeth Hillary 26 Jan 1744 at Holy Trinity Kings Court, York.
George was given the Fredom of the City of York in the year 1721/2.
He was a Butcher.
An emaill from Paul Bulmer about the ancestry of this Thomas Bulmer:
Hi Brian Sorry not to have responded sooner, so busy at work at the moment havn,t had time to do much else. Been away to Durham and London this week so feeling a bit shattered. Will let you have details soon.Marrick was a lead mining village and the Bulmer family lived there, on and off, for some time. Although they had a home there the mines were often "let out" to others to mine and the Bulmer family received a share of the profits without doing any actual work. The family also had other homes throughout the area, in Wilton etc.
A lot of problems with Marrick through the years, the land passed to various people in an attempt to avoid fines levied by the King in the hope that it would be returned to the family in due course. However, by about the early 17 hundreds the remaining land was finally sold and the family (what remained of them at Marrick) moved away. Some went to Startforth, some to York and in due course, some to the Rothwell area. By this time (in the main) the family had reduced from landowners etc to having to work for their livings. In those days the eldest son usually inherited and younger sons etc probably had to make their own way in life.
In the "glory" days of the Bulmer family younger sons would probably have a decent start in life. However, by the 17 hundreds they were probably reduced to Yeoman status and would move from place to place dependent on how they could earn their living. It is amazing just how much a family can change in a couple of generations. (I guess the Maxwell family realise that now!)
I will send details, but it might be better if I post them to you? If you let me have your address I will copy the papers I have. By the way I have a copy of the Irish lady's book, she was called Mary Hobson.I received, following the death of a great aunt, a copy of a old and tatty family tree that showed the decent of my Bulmer family from the Startforth/Marrick area down to me great grandfather in Rothwell. This made my search easier. Not possible to say with absolute certainty that it is totally accurate however, because between 16 and 17 hundreds it becomes hard to find proof. However, the dates and names appear to fit with various sources. Will contact you again soon Regards Paul
!This connection is yet to be proved. Though the dates fit, there appears
!to be evidence which says that these are not the parents of Thomas who
!married Phyllis....Rats!
!I also have a note which states the following:
! Thomas Bulmer Died 6 Aug 1680, Barbara Bulmer, his wife Buried Dec 1670. They were buried in the Friends Burial Ground, Bishophill, York. (Quakers).
!Could this be a possible set of parents?
!Also I have a burial of a Thomas Bulmer, Tailor buried 20 Oct 1699 at St Michael Le Belfrey, York. There is no age given so I cannot tell which Thomas this burial belongs too.
!Also there is a Burial of a Barbara Bulmer 5 May 1660 at St Michael Le Belfrey, York.
There is also a James Bulmer, son of William Bullmer Christened at St Michael Le Belfrey, York, 17 Apr 1676. These are the first few Bulmers mentioned in the registers of St Michael Le Befrey, York, whose records began in 1653.
A possible marriage for William to Eleanor Vasey, 21, from Brompton, on the 13th Aug 1748. The William who married Eleanor was 23, and residing in Newmarket, Cambrdigeshire at the time.
John was given the Fredom of the City of York in the year 1733/4.
He was a Tailor like his Father.
George was given the Freedom of the City of York in the year 1756.
He was a Silk Weaver like his Father.
!His will was proved Jun 1760. A copy is available to be viewed on Microfilm at the Borthwick Institute of Historical Research, York. Part of The History Department of the University of York, which is due to relocate to the Campus of the University sometime in 2000/2001. It was originally filed in a large volume, page number 104 and folio number 412.
Is this another daughter of William?? Or is she the one who was born in 1687?? Just that the age at burial would have been wrong if so.:

He was the Vicar of the Parish of Thorpe St Peter in Lincolnshire where he and his wife Hannah had 6 children. Not sure if they later moved up to york again though. Possbily not.
George & Sarah (nee Hearon) of Goodramgate, York were my 5x great grandparents.Their son, Peter was vicar of Croft, Lincs, 1781-1834; m. Hannah Kidd of Ripon 1783.The line continues:
George b.1878; m. Harriet Booth Wright 1814.

I cannot find a birth or Christening reference for William savage or Anna Marfield, as they would have been born before 1617 when the parish of Escrick came into being. I will look at other parishes nearby.
Other parishes that are nearby which have been in existenece longer than escirck:
Wheldrake 1603 (NE of Escrick) Extracted from 1669 forwards
Stillingfleet 1598 (SW of Escrick) Extracted from 1813 forwards
Riccall 1613 (South of Escrick) Extracted from 1813 forwards.
So I need to look in them really!Here is the marriage of William:
SAVIDG, William Marriage

There are quite a few other siblings also:

I have a note about a distinguished gentleman of York whom I think might be this William, though his surname is spelt slightly differently:
A large stone plaque mounted on the wall of St Michael Spurriergate parish church, which is now a cafeteria and help center for people who need someone to talk to in a christian based environment.To the memory of Wm Hutchinson, Esq, of this City
who served in the office of Sheriff in 1724
paid the fine for that of Alderman in 1749
and departed this life on the 5th Jan 1779.
A partiality to the place of his birth in which he lived for 89 years
led him to distinguish by his will, the Rector and the Poor of this parish
with a legacy of £300.
