Hard to be sure who this is

[mjay]

Thanks for all this Gardener.
Hope its not turning into the Davis/Davies/Pain/Paine surname saga again.

[gardener]

I know! I almost gave up before I started because of that! The 1841 looks good though

[mjay]

Thanks for preserving with me.
Does it look like this Thomas is connected to the right family I posted ?

[gardener]

I honestly don't know!

This is Sarah's family I think. Names and address fit the marriage certificate.

Thomas Kesterson 21 Dudley
Charles Kesterson 17 Dudley
Mary A Kesterson 8 g dau Dudley
Caroline Kesterson 4 g dau Dudley

So I think the family in Yorkshire is probably right, given the similar first names.

But if so, what do we know about Thomas?

Born about 1816 in Dudley
Father William Davies, a nailor


There is a baptism at St Thomas

25 Dec 1814 Thomas, son of William (nailor) and Mary Davies


The 1841 on BCC has
William Davies 20
Gheeney Davies 20
Mary Davies 70
Elizabeth Davies 20
William Davies 5 Mo

I would like to know who Elizabeth is, and who William jnr is

[mjay]

Just going through what you've found Gardener
this census you posted
"The 1841 on BCC
William Davies 20
Gheeney Davies 20
Mary Davies 70
Elizabeth Davies 20
William Davies 5 Mo "

William aged 20 is William & marys son, Noahs Davies brother

[mjay]

I think we can agree Sarah Kesterton's family is sorted and ready to be added to BCC. Along with the marriage look up.
Thomas However, I think is still a mystery and I'm really not sure of the connection I first thought, so best to archive for now Thanks

[Northern Lass]

Added all above and put a hyperlink onto Bcc.
so will now archive.
