ARC TBC...........Angel or Angell family

Post by mumbles »

Have just added a lot of Angels ( name varies between Angell and Angell so used Angell)
When came across unusual record :-
1881 Census 32 Stanley Street Kimberworth Rawmarsh Rotherham Yorkshire
John Angel Head 25 Coal Miner born Commonside Staffs.
Lucy Langford Housekeeper 25 born Commonside Staffs.
Anne Angel dau 1 born Eckington Derbyshire

1891 Census Silkstone Row Altofts Sandal Wakefield Yorkshire
John Angel Head 38 Coal Miner born Bromley Staffs.
Lucy Angel wife 38 born Bromley Staffs.
Annie Angel dau 12 born Eckington Derbyshire
Phoebe Angel dau 8 born Parkgate Yorks.
Julia Angel dau 5 born Parkgate Yorks,
David Angel son 3 born Altofts Yorks.
Lucy Angel dau 6mths. born Altofts Yorks.

1901 Census 116 Effingham Street Rotherham Yorkshire
John Angel Head 45 Coal Miner Hewer born Bromley Staffs.
Lucy Angel wife 45 born Bromley Staffs.
Julia Angel dau 16 born Parkgate Yorks,
David Angel son 12 born Normanton Yorks.
Lucy Angel dau 10 born Normanton Yorks.
George Angel son 8
Fanny Angel dau 6
John Angel son 1
Elizabeth Angel dau 1 mth.
Rest born Rotherham Yorkshire

1911 Census 16 Shaftebury Street Rotherham Yorkshire
John Angel Head 55 Coal Miner Hewer born Staffs.
Lucy Angel wife 55 born Staffs.
George Angel son 18 Coal Miner Trammer
Fanny Angel dau 17
John Angel son 12
Elizabeth Angel dau 10
Rest born Rotherham Yorkshire

Married 34 years , 11 children ,8 living

John Angel married a Lucy Langton in 1877 Holy Trinity Wordsley and this ties up with 34 years married in 1911 but in 1881 she is noted as Housekeeper and Lucy Langford
What would be reason to show as not married in 1881 ?

If you look at the image, wife and married have been overwritten.

At 33 Hanley Steet there are some Angel and Langford.

At 32 Hanley Street on the same page is John and Lucy but on the next page is their daughter living at No 22!!

So I would say there was a lot of confusion on the part of the enumerator.

He seems to have changed his mind on Lucy and placed her profession in the place of her relationship.

We don't know who was talking to but I think he was given the Langdon surname by mistake and then decided she couldn't be the wife with a different surname.
