Rymill, Rymal or Rimill Family Tree - Help Wanted!
including variations Rymell, Rimell and even Rimer

Seeking help from: (Maiden names) Carol A Rymill, May Rymill, Olive Rymill, Ivy Rymill, Eileen Rymill

Can you trace your tree to Rymills or Rymells in Banbury, Deddington, Neithrop and Oxfordshire?

Updated 23rd August 2007 - This page needs to be viewed in 1024x768, sorry!

Our particular branch of the Rymill family has been researching its tree for some years and we need some input from other quarters now in order to start to completing the bigger geneaology picture. This page has been put up for the purpose of attracting interest from as many other members of the Rymill family who might be researching their family tree as possible. We are also obviously interested to hear from anyone with a variation of that name, such as the Rimill family who, not too long ago, may have been very close relations (census documents show my great, great grandfather written as both Rymill and Rymell).

The familty tree below is the best representation I can on a website of our information at this time. We are looking currently for birth information for William Rymill at the top of the tree, born 1783. We are fairly certain that this is the correct William Rymill to be our ancestor.

The key individuals we are in dire need of information on are the descendents of William Henry Rymill (born 1847 in Neithrop). He had had 8 children, being: Florence Caroline Rymill, Emily Louise Rymill, Harry Rymill, Frederick James Rymill, Minnie R Rymill, William Harold Rymill, Ernest Albert Rymill and Leonard Rymill - all of whom were born in either Birmingham or the suburb of Aston. Anyone of the line of this William Henry Rymill is brothers with our ancestor Frederick Charles Rymill (born 1849) and it would be great to fill in the left half of this Rymill tree.

Frederick Charles Rymill and William Henry Rymill have the parents Charles Rymill and Caroline Rymill (formerly Caroline Gibbs). There are no shortages of Charles Rymills.

Other parts of the tree we would like to explore include the links to John Riddoch Rymill of Australia (although this branch with its wine connections may have diverged longer ago than can be traced) and in particular any information on the areas of Banbury, Deddington, Neithrop and Oxfordshire.

Below is a list of the important dates we have found. If you can contribute to this list, or you are involved in similar research of the Rymill name, please contact me at the following email address:

Transatlantic Connections

The Australian links to John Riddoch Rymill and its wine connections are well documented. Another connection to be explored is one to Virginia, USA. It is only a tiny link because the name disappeared due to marriage but nonetheless it is one of the oldest references to the surname:

Mr RYMILL - Birth: Abt 1560 - Marriage 1 Spouse Unknown

One daughter:

Ann RYMILL - Birth: Abt 1580 in England
:Marriage 1 Thomas ROWLETT (b: Abt 1580 in Great Oakley, Northampton Co, England)

One Son:

Jean Pierre ROWLETT - Birth: Abt 1580

One Son:

Jon ROWLETT - Birth: 1605 in Great Oakley,Northampton Co,England
Emigrated to Virginia as an indentured servant between 1625 and 1635; no further record.
Death: in Henrico Co.,VA, USA

John is known from a single reference, a land patent dated 21 Oct 1635. The patent granted 350 acres in Warrasquioake County (now Isle of Wight County) to Capt. John Moone in recognition of 17 headrights including one "Jno. Rowlett." This means that Moone, a ship captain who made several voyages to Virginia before settling down in the colony, brought John to Virginia at some time prior to 1635, probably selling his indenture on arrival. John's arrival must be later than 1625, since no Rowletts appear on the Muster of Inhabitants, a census of the struggling colony made in 1624-25.
