ARC...1841 and 1851 ...Downing/Wooldridge connection

Post by sp1 »

Can't add this for a while as I will be at work.
This Hannah Sidebottom's first husband was Edward Wooldridge.

This is Hannah:http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/family-tree/bcconnections/209617/123936/Hannah-Sidebottom-Family

In 1901 she is with her brother in law Simeon Wooldridge:

After a bit of head scratching, because Simeon didn't have a brother Edward, realised (!) Simeons wife was a Wooldridge - it is her brother Edward who married Hannah Sidebottom:

Sorry can post census at moment as doing this from phone - getting ready for work in a while!

Just realised link for Hannah hasn't worked - but there is only one on BCC (stupid phone!)
Can't find her anywhere before marriage although she says she was born Bushbury/ Wolverhampton.

Nice find Jo - I looked for Hannah Sidebottom in 41 and 51 and couldnt see her (found a different one but that was all).
Be interesting to find out who who Thomas Wooldridge was as I can't see an obvious connection to Hannah's husband.
