The Naden/Nadin Family

I am researching into the Naden/Nadin family which has very close connections with Buxton for hundreds of years.
If you are a member of the family or related to them or if you have any information or photographs we would be pleased to hear from you.

Virtually all the Naden/Nadins in the UK and commonwealth derive from the UK family which was centred from the start of parish records mainly in two centres N Staffs and S Lancs. The earliest reference at present is fifteenth century Lancs and probably relates to the Naden Valley above Rochdale.
There are exceptions in N America.
When I began my research there were beliefs that we were Russan aristocrats fleeing persecution from the communists, french aristocrats fleeing from the French revolution and aristocratic huguenots fleeing from earlier persecution.NB always aristocrats.
I have found no evidence of any of this and as stated above considerable evidence of extensive UK settlement from the beginning of popular records

Hi my name is Gary Nadin of Buxton born in Batham gate, just outside Buxton towards Doveholes and peakdale. My father was John Leonard Nadin also of Batham Gate. His father was Evan Nadin i think originally from somewhere in wales? My father had 1 brother George who spelt his surname Naden and two sisters Hilda and Margaret. Margaret is now living in Italy and is the only one living.

I hope this maybe of some help,

I am researching the Smithurst family and have come across a Agnes Smithurst (nee Wagg) who married Frederick james Naden in 1907. I would be Extremely interested to know anything about the Nadens and where they lived in Buxton.

My father was born in Buxton in 1932 William Brian Nadin, his father was Frank Nadin and his father was David Naden - I have further details going back to a association to the Gannon family (my nan's maiden name). The Gannon's have links to Waterford in Ireland.
My father had a sister Stella; his mother was Mary Gannon. His left area when he joined the RAF
Frank Nadin lived and worked around Buxton all his life from working in quarry, to a firm called Brake Linings and long time assocation to St Johns Ambulance.
Other details area being collated into my own family tree. Any knowledge of information would be appreciated

I'm a Naiden in the US, and we got as far back as a William Henry Naiden from Staffordshire, but can find nothing more. He came over to New York with a young wife, and moved to Iowa. There are Naiden's in the midwest part of the US who trace their ancestry to Eastern Europe, but we are not of that ilk. Would live to find other Naidens in Staffordshire/Cheshire that may be distant relations. We spell it with an "i" and apparently always have - on the ships manifest W. Henry Naiden spelled his name with an "i".

I'm descended from Thomas Nadin, son of James and Betty (Pratt) Nadin -- all from Dukinfield, Cheshire.

Specifically, my grandmother was Elsie Nadin (b. 1897), daughter of Ernest Nadin (b. 1869), who was the son of Thomas (b. 1832). Any and all information about James and Betty, as well as generations above, would be appreciated!
