*Completed * Daniel Willetts b 1861

[Northern Lass]

Thanks Jimmy and FS...ok we got a bit of a puzzle.

We got a marriage for a Benjamin Willetts and Lucy Bloomer in 1824
and 1824 fits the kids well.

so is there another marriage for a Benjamin Willetts and a Lucy Downing?

Who is this Esther?

[Northern Lass]

Cant get my head around it but I think we might have a connection

Benjamin has a son called Zachariah on the 1841 census...got to be an unusual name one connected to this branch....

and then I find this on connections

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =731031781

now is this a brother to benjamin with parents Daniel and Diana?

or am I talking twaddle
can we find a bapt for a Daniel too? father Daniel and Diana or any other kids for daniel and diana

[Jimmy]

I cannot see a marriage for Ben Willetts and a Lucy Downing anywhere.

Thanks Jimmy I am going with the marriage of Lucy Bloomer until proven otherwise
but will enter tthe downing as a seperate post re who they are to not confuse bits....

but who is that Richard in 1861?
is it a bro for benjamin? ....so is there a Richard b abt 1795 -father daniel?
think the ages of Benjamin and Lucy should say 60

1861
190 Mack heath, Rowley
Esther Downing 42 - lodger - unmarried
Benjamin Willetts 50 - nailor
Lucy Willetts 50 - Tailoress - born Stourbridge
Lucy Willetts 17
Richard Willetts 66 - nailor - lodger - widow

Possible scenario
On the 1891 there is an Esther Downing boarding with a Thomas and Lucy Taylor, there is a marriage 1877 Dudley Lucy Willetts to Thomas Taylor...
Esther Downing 73
Ezra Taylor 12
Frances Taylor 1
George Taylor 13
Joshua Taylor 10
Lucy Taylor 37
Thomas Taylor 35

Had another look at the page the ages may have been transcribed as 50, handwritten it does look like 59 for both Ben and Lucy...

I'd put money on this Lucy is the Granchild on the 1871
she appears on the 1861 with her family -:
Caroline Willett 35
Richard Willett 35
Caroline Willetts 2
Daniel Willetts 5 Mo
Hannah Willetts 10
Lucy Willetts 8
Mary Willetts 13
Richard Willetts 6

gottcha!
so that Lucy (b 1853) of Richard and Caroline is the one housing Esther in 1891 ...rite will amend that

nice one FS


All on Connections here....

could do with knowing if that Daniel 1795 is a bro to benjamin - cos that Zacharia connection is strong.(ie Daniel 1795 calls his kid that as does Benjamin b 1800)

is there a bapt for a Daniel with parents Daniel and Diana?
Wot other kids for Daniel and Diana...
