Ainscough Roots!
c2000 Lucinda Cunningham Durbin


"You always spell it A-I-N-S and then like a 'cough'" said Margaret Alice "Maggie" Ainscough Durbin,
my husband Ed's grandmother to her grandchildren. The name is prounounced "Ains-ko" despite its spelling.
Born in Aspull, Lancashire County, England, "Maggie" emigrated to southeastern Ohio with her parents,
Thomas and Mary Anne Ghent Ainscough.

John Francis "Frank" Durbin married Margaret Alice "Maggie" Ainscough
2 November 1897 in Mt. Pleasant, Jefferson County, Ohio.
The marriage was performed by the Rev. John T. Black.

Below, you will find the record of the descendants of Thomas H. Ainscough and as I have been able to ascertain them.
Thanks to several Ainscough Cousins for their help and sharing of their own family information --
you know who you are, though you chose not to be mentioned by name.
I also want to thank the staff at the Jefferson County, Ohio, Court House for their courtesy and assistance.
