I'm trying to tie up the loose ends on Rebecca Jeavons (jevons).
Here's what I know:
Born 9 Jan 1850 in Aston, Warwickshire.
Parents: Daniel Jevons (Moulder), Hannah (formerly Aston). Info from Birth cert.
1861 Census: (Jevens on image - ancestry better than FMP)
SEVENS, Daniel Head Married M 47 1814 Iron Moulder Bradley Staffordshire
SEVENS, Hannah Wife Married F 46 1815 Bradley Staffordshire
SEVENS, William Son Unmarried M 23 1838 Iron Moulder Bradley Staffordshire
SEVENS, John Son Unmarried M 17 1844 Iron Moulder Bradley Staffordshire
SEVENS, Rebecca Daughter F 11 1850 Scholar Birmingham Warwickshire
SEVENS, Daniel Son M 6 1855 Scholar Dudley Worcestershire
Daniel and family move to the Birmingham area around 1850, they are originally from the Sedgley area.
Although Rebecca is born in Aston, I can't find the family anywhere in 1851. Rebecca is not with the rest of the family in 1871;
JEAVONS, Daniel Head M 56 1815 Staffordshire
JEAVONS, Hannah Wife F 55 1816 Staffordshire
JEAVONS, Daniel Son M 16 1855 Staffordshire
JEAVONS, John Son M 27 1844 Staffordshire
JEAVONS, Ann Daughter-In-Law F 25 1846 Warwickshire
JEAVONS, John Grandson M 6 1865 Warwickshire
JEAVONS, Ellen Granddaughter F 4 1867 Warwickshire
JEAVONS, Sarah Granddaughter F 2 1869 Warwickshire
By 1875 the family are living in the Trinity Road area of West Bromwich (Daniels death cert) and still no sign of Rebecca.
I have a feeling she's dead by this point, but can find no trace of her.
Can anybody help?

Re: Rebecca Jeavons 1850
Is this family related? I know it is a different Rebecca as there is a birth 2nd Qtr 1850 in Dudley as well as the 1st Qtr Aston.

Hi Mark
I haven't checked out this death as I've not found any evidence to say where Rebecca was after 1861, but it may be worth doing so.
As for the census entries you've found, I don't have them on my tree, but there are a lot of Jeavons in that area, mine seem to live in Hall Green and Bloomfield Road.
Thanks

Hi snoopysue
Are you still working on this or can it be archived?

Re: *archive?* Rebecca Jeavons 1850
I've put it aside at the mo, so archive it and I can ask for it to be brought back if needed!
