Archive also has v thrown up a doubt as to who Joseph Parsons born 1855 married as I have Elizabeth Ann Hickman ( Betsy) and Archive has Betsy Alice Bloomer.
I investigated weddings and found a Joseph Parsons born 1855 married a Betsy Alice Bloomer in 1875 and a John Parsons born 1855 married an Eliza Ann Hickman in 1876 .
Census records suggest either spouse could be right one

How do we know it is Eliza Hickman?
it could be Eliza Male which I think it is
look!
1876
HICKMAN Eliza A CLEWS John Cradley, St Peter Dudley Register Office 013/001/344
and
1876
PARSONS Joseph MALE Eliza Cradley, St Peter Dudley Register Office 013/001/343
we always need to be sure re checking marriage info where we can
Marriages Sep 1876
Clews John Stourbridge 6c 223
Hickman Eliza Ann Stourbridge 6c 223
Male Eliza Stourbridge 6c 223
Parsons Joseph Stourbridge 6c 223
have you checked the marriages Mumbles for fathers?
have we the correct fathers
cos that info needs to be changed for Elizabeth Hickman and who she married
then the census makes sense
1881 Colley Lane Cradley
Joseph Parsons 26 Netherton Slaughterman
Eliza Wife 28 Cradley
Carrie Parsons D 4 Cradley
1881 Butchers Lane Cradley
Joseph Parsons 26 Cradley Chainmaker
Betsy A Wife 24 Cradley
Myra D 2 Cradley
Rueben Son 11 months Cradley
Betsy Ann and Joseph Parsons with Myra and Reuben
who is his father...do we actually know it is the one we have ...ie John Parsons and Hannah Whorton
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =243531184
I am concerned whether we have the correct father and mother for Joseph parsons b 1855
and
joseph Parsons and Eliza male..are they on connections?
cant see em.
So the marriage is incorrect needs changing
and census info added for joseph and Betsy.
Eliza Hickman is not Betsy and anyway Eliza Hickman she married a Clews
Betsy is her actual name not Elizabeth
1875
PARSONS Joseph BLOOMER Betsy A Dudley, St Andrew Dudley Register Office 205/006/175
So I can change the marriage info and add census
but need the father verifying for this Joseph
do we know that the Joseph who married Betsy Bloomer had father John?
if not we need look up and added?

Re: Joseph Parsons b1855 /Betsy Alice Bloomer or Eliza Hickmann
Ok have done the look ups and will alter on Connections accordingly.
It is as follows...
Joseph Parsons marrried Betsy Alice bloomer father John
so not Eliza Hickman
She married John Clews
and the other Eliza married Joseph Parsons father jesse
so that couple on census
now do we know which Jesse it could be please
can we find em on census as there are a few on BCC
Mumbles do you know which one it is?
