Ann Firkin born 1847

[dudleytaylor]

Will come bk later ,see if I can find census

[dudleytaylor]

I cannot find any census on Jeremiah Firkin , But I have found one on his Son ;

1861 On Board his Vessel moored at Cheadle

Jeremiah Firkin Head 28 Boatman (Master) Born Birmingham
Emma Firkin Wife 27 Birmingham
Elizabeth Daughter 6 Oldbury
John Son 4 Oldbury
Eliza Daughter 4 Months Oldbury


I think you will find they are all a Canal family. Including Ann Firkin ,and her Sister Mary Berry nee Firkin

[Rob]

They made their living on the canals!! Well done DT.
That would explain the connections with Penkridge and Gailey.Also Lodge Street and Stone street are right next to the Tat Bank Basin in Oldbury.
So they are all these Firkin's are connected in some way or another.Mercy Firkin 1856-1896 was my Great Grandmother.

Glad to be of help . It is a interest to me as the Darby's on my moms side were connected to Firkins , Sarah Darby married Zephania Firkin , Sarah is my great grand aunt , and Thomas Hughes married to Abigail Hodgkiss my 2nd great grandparents lived and worked on the canals in Oldbury ,canal side West ,and Canal side seven.

I was looking at the family yesterday that RF put on. But they didnt have any children with them. Just from what I remember, not that it is good as t was yesterday. I think there was an Elizabeth or was it Mary? Christening in Stafford 1850 I think?
I havent had chance to help...
