Got that Hannah Priest with a Samuel on the 1861 Coxs lane RR
hannah b Worcs dudley
Samuel b RR
kids
Silvia Priest age 4
joseph 2
Abraham 11mths
kids b RR

no Frederick
but he is born 1862

[FarSide]

Think she is on the 1891 at 77 Gorsty Hill RR
with a son Joseph Priest age 32
and Joseph calls one of his kids Frederick
she is down as mother

so if joseph is bro to Frederick
then she is mother

I think you are right, I'll post all the census's give me a couple of mins

[Northern Lass]

cant find them on the 1871 and flagging now!

and cant read Samuels age on that 1861
but think should be a marriage which could be this one

were there Parkes near them on the 1861?

hmmm know what you mean I think this one must be them...same address as in 1861
but different kids
she is Anna


1851 Coxs lane

Samuel Priest 28 nailer b Dudley
Anna Priest wife 24 dudley
Mary Ann Priest 2 dau
Samuel Priest son 7 mths
Martha Smart mother widow 89!

and who is Martha Smart?

and what is the Sidaway connection
usually when it says that at St Thomas it means that the fathers name is different

So I will look both marriages up
homer and parkes

if that is them in 1851 at same address
what happened to the kids mary ann and Samuel

maybe need to exclude the above family on 1861 census see if they are on there


Have we got Samuel and Hannah on 1881 at all?

[FarSide]

I'll have another look for them on the 81, couldn't find them earlier

My head aches and all i do is read what you have found out!!
Can i just say i think you are all lovely people and i am grateful for what you've done!!
I can pass this on to my cousin who'll be amazed at what i've found out!!
No seriously i wish i could do this as well.
Oh Northern Lady my connection is my uncle Stanley Davies(Davis) is Lottie Priest's son.
Stanley was married to my father Horace's sister Joan Williams.
And Lotties mother was Annie Priest nee Smith whose mother was Hannah Smith born 1831.
Thanks again.
