Ricketts/Rollason/Shakespeare ...ok, now it gets complicated
This post is a continuation of the Mary Shakespeare descendants thread.
Here: viewtopic.php?f=29&t=11798
John Ricketts and Emma Rollason had the following children:
John 1900-61
Richard James 1902-70
Joseph Samuel 1904-70
Emily/Emma 1908
Walter 1912-13
Caroline 1914-16
Joseph Samuel Ricketts (1904-70) married Beatrice May Crook (1906-72)
Her parents were Edward Crook (1878-1956) (More of him later), and Jane Rollason (1880-1954). Jane was the daughter of John Rollason (here on BCC: http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... son-Family) and Emma Smith - his parents being James Rollason and Sarah Wheale. This means that Jane Rollason and Emma Rollason who married John Ricketts were cousins, so Joseph Samuel Ricketts and his wife Beatrice Mary Crook were 2nd cousins.
It doesnt end there though.................
Jane Rollason, who married Edward Crook (mentioned him earlier you remember) - his parents were Edward Crook (b 1849, Chalford, Glos) and Elizabeth Round (b 1849 Dudley). Her parents (Elizabeth Round) were Samuel Round (b 1824 Dudley) and Eliza Southall (b 1830 Dudley, d 1908 Lehi, Utah). Eliza Rounds parents were John Round and Sarah Southall?.
Eliza Round also married Lot(t) Russon (b 1828 Netherton, m 1850 Dudley) - his parents were Thomas Russon & Sarah Davies. Sarah was the daughter of Lot Davies and Hannah Shakespeare on BCC here: http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... ies-Family
Phew! Work that out.
And Jan...........those Russons get everywhere!

Where is Edward on 1911 if he doesn't die until later that must be a mistake as Jane widow on 1911

Re: Ricketts/Rollason/Shakespeare ...ok, now it gets complic
this bit here can we prove...
sp1 says.."Her parents (Elizabeth Round) were Samuel Round (b 1824 Dudley) and Eliza Southall (b 1830 Dudley, d 1908 Lehi, Utah)."
and is that her name Eliza Round? or Eliza Southall.....is there a marriage?
"Eliza Rounds parents were John Round and Sarah Southall?."
"Eliza Round also married Lot(t) Russon (b 1828 Netherton, m 1850 Dudley) - his parents were Thomas Russon & Sarah Davies. Sarah was the daughter of Lot Davies and Hannah Shakespeare on BCC here: http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... ies-Family"
need marriage info for this lot
have added some but need this above checked

Re: Ricketts/Rollason/Shakespeare ...ok, now it gets complic
Eliza Round couldnt marry Lot russon and Samuel Round
She is with Lot in 1861
1861. Netherton Hill, Dudley.
Lot Russon, head, 32, Coal Miner.
Eliza, wife, 30.
Charlotte, daur, 10.
Thomas, son, 8.
Mary, daur, 5.
Sarah, daur, 3.
Lot, son, 1.
All born Netherton, Dudley.
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... onnections
and the other Eliza that marries Samuel is on census with Samuel Round in 1861
so which Eliza marries Samuel Round?
