The American Ansteys

Overview of the American Ansteys

There is no such thing as a single American  ‘Anstey’, Ansty’, ‘Anstee’ and ‘Anstie’ sub-branch. American Ansteys form a gallimaufry of offshoots of sub-branches, however they all have one thing in common, being that they can ALL ultimately trace back their ‘Anstey’ lineage to England, joining with one of the known English Anstey sub-branches.

So however American you may feel, if you are an ‘Anstey’ (or ‘Anstee’, ‘Ansty’ or ‘Anstie’) you have plenty of English blood. Furthermore, the vast majority of Ansteys in America are direct descendants of Hubert de Anesti, the first holder and originator of the Anstey surname in 1143.

Having said that, there are many Anstey sub-branches in America who have long since settled there. Those sub-branches which we have begun documenting which have connections to America include the:

Anstey Pilgrims?

We have heard tales of Ansteys claiming ‘Anstey’ descendency from one of the first sets of pilgrims to arrive on American soil. The story goes along the lines that “Francis Anstey of Bury St Edmunds” (occasionally Semer in Suffolk) married Susan Knapp and had a daughter Elizabeth (or Agnes), who married Captain Robert Chaplain. This couple then had a daughter Martha who married Robert Parke, who sailed to America in 1630 on board the ship ‘Arabella’.

Given that this was only ten years after the famous ‘Mayflower’ transported the first English pilgrims to the ‘New World’ of America, there is understandably much interest in this ancestral line. However, no lesser a source than the 1612 Heraldic Visitation of Suffolk confirms that it was Francis Asty of Bury St Edmunds who married Susan Knapp, not “Francis Anstey”, who is therefore an Anstey imposter (Francis Asty married Susan Knapp on 3 October 1598 in Washbrook, Suffolk. In most databases this is transcribed as “Austye”, which is probably where the confusion comes from).

Hence, we are pretty certain that there were NO Ansteys amongst the earliest American pilgrims, though of course we would be happy to be proved wrong. Please contact us at research@theansteystory.com if you have reliable information to the contrary.

American Anstey Pioneers

Numerous American ‘Anstey’, Ansty’, ‘Anstee’ and ‘Anstie’ pioneers made the journey from (probably) England to America (likely in the 1800s and frequently via Canada) and then settled there, spawning Anstey sub-branches which thrive in America to this day. So far, we have discovered the stories of the following individuals:

Ansteys in the 1910 American Census

The 1910 American Census was taken on 15 April 1910, at which time the total population count of America was around 92.2 million. Of those, just over 300 were members of the ‘Anstey’, Ansty’, ‘Anstee’ and ‘Anstie’ family, representing about 1 in every 300,000 people living there – ie not very many! This figure is remarkably consistent with our 1917/18 Draft Registration analysis below!

The 1910 American Census list is as follows:

American Ansteys in the 1917/18 Draft Registration

Towards the end of World War One, following America’s declaration of war on Germany in April 1917, there were three Draft Registrations. The first was held on 5 June 1917 for men ages 21-31. The second was held on 5 June 1918 for men who turned 21 since the first registration. The third started 12 September 1918 for men ages 18-45.

In effect this provides us with a form of 1917/18 ‘mini-census’ of adult American males. Out of a total of just over 25 million registrations, we find 74 members of the ‘Anstey’, Ansty’, ‘Anstee’ and ‘Anstie’ family – representing around 1 in every 338,000 men who registered, which is remarkably consistent with our figures for the 1910 American Census above.

According to the website The World Remembers, no American ‘Anstey’, Ansty’, ‘Anstee’ and ‘Anstie’ actually died fighting in World War One, which concurs with our independent ‘Anstey’ research.

American ‘Anstey’, Ansty’, ‘Anstee’ and ‘Anstie’ who appear in the Draft Registrations are:

American Landmarks Called ‘Anstey’

Anstey Road in Rustburg, Campbell County, Virginia is surely named after (or more likely by) Augustus Henry Anstey (CU 2) of the Cumberland, Iowa Ansteys

Further Details on the American Ansteys

#1. The ‘Honolulu Star Bulletin‘ on 14 December 1943 reported “FRANK H. ANSTY Frank H. Ansty, 39, of 1224 Fort St.died ar 11:15 a.m. Monday at his home. Services will be held at 1 p.m. Wednesday at Silva’s mortuary, where friends may call after 9 a.m. Burial will be in Diamond Head memorial park. Born in Hana, Maui, Mr. Ansty was a truck driver here. He is survived by three sisters, Mr. Margie Sanderson, Mrs.Louisa C. Kalani, and Mrs. Mary C. Molina of Kauai.” His full name was Frank Haleakala Ansty and he was born in Hawaii to an English or Hawaiian father (sources differ) and a Hawaiian mother – he married Rebecca Kamala Puna Niheu on 8 April 1925 in Maui, Hawaii. As far as we know he had no sons and also as far as we know his father was not an ‘Ansty’.
