Phew! Not long been in - thanks Di for having a look at this for me! Need to digest it all now

Thanks to you also Jimmy

I'll enjoy looking at your additions Linnell, cheers

Wonder if this is her:
1881 8 Little Newport Street, Walsall
Elizeth. Mills Head Wid 51
Alfred Mills Son 16 b. Staffs., Coseley
George Mills Son 13 b. Staffs., Coseley
Saml. Mills Son 10 b. Staffs., Coseley
Thos. Parker Lodger Marr 34 b. Warwick, Wilmescote
Jemima Parker Lodger Marr 38 b. Staffs., Rowley Regis

I think it must be Di.........

Found this marriage, Jemima's Sister?

PLANT Elizabeth MILLS William
21 JUL 1844 Aston Juxta Birmingham, Warwick

I forget ... Did we have a reason for tagging Thomas Yardley's dob as around 1840? He could be considerably older than Jemima, couldn't he?

I'm thinking he could be a miner as they often lived away form their families for long periods - could be in Lancashire or Cumbria.

I've come across these other transcriptions for Yardley: Gordley, Gradley, Wardley - all definitely 'Yardley' when you look at the original image.

Makes it hard, doen't it?

Then, again, I like the theory that Thomas is living 2 lives - has 2 wives & families ... A much more interesting story

[mallosa]

It is confusing isn't it?
The more I think about it, the more possible it seems

Haven't had a lot of time tonight but will try and add what I can to connections tomorrow night (after a couple of meetings I'm going to)

Thanks again Di

On connections Jemimas sister Elizabeth was born 1814?

and i found this marriage:

PLANT Elizabeth SHAW James
16 SEP 1832 St John's Halesowen, Worcester

[linell]

Hi San, I looked up the Marriage:- James Shaw bach otp Elizabeth Plant Wid otp by Banns, Witnesses were Benjamin and Betty Taylor, all signed X. linell.

[mallosa]

Nice one Linnell !! So it could be Jemima's sister then?

[dianel]

Jemima's sister, Elizabeth, born in 1814, died 1826. She had a later sister, Bessey, born 1822, but she married Charles Adkins/Atkins and was still with him on the 1881 census. Unless there was another later Elizabeth? Or is Elizabeth Mills related to Thomas Parker?

[mallosa]

I can't find any other info at the moment guys but will keep trying

Thanks for your help
