This Elizabeth Plant

http://www.bcconnections.tribalpages.co ... =864040388

" Note added by Dennis
"Fish shop assistant" in 1891. Known as "Lizzie". Like her father Warwick, Lizzie was of a fiery disposition. She had a disgreement with Warwick, married an older man, emigrated to Australia and had three or four children there, and died aged 35."

I think this is wrong as family are on Census in 1901 and 1911

Wedding was St. Peter Cradley 1897 not Stourbridge Worcs.

1901 Census 57 Howard Street St, George Birmingham
John Burton Goss Head 34 Shoeing Smith
Elizabeth Goss wife 26 born Cradley Staffs.
John Burton Goss son 2
Lanny Goss dau 2mths.
Rest born Birmingham Warks.

1911 Census 57 Howard Street St, George Birmingham
John Burton Goss Head 46 Shoeing Smith at Shoeing Forge
Elizabeth Goss wife 36 born Cradley Staffs.
John Burton Goss son 12 School
Alice Goss dau 5 School
Benjamin Goss son 3
Rest born Birmingham Warks.

A daughter Millie Goss was born 1911 Birmingham mother Plant and she died aged 2 in 1914
Elizabeth Goss died aged 37 1912 Birmingham
and John Burton Goss died 1920 Birmingham aged 56

"John Burton Goss son 12 School" was registered as John Warwick Goss which ties up with Elizabeth Plant Warwick family name

Three surviving children did emigrate to Australia
23/4/1925 London to Melbourne " Diogenes"
Destination Montrose Victoria Australia
John Goss 26 Horseman
Alice L. Goss 19 Domestic
Benjamin Goss 18 Horseman
All noted as Address 137 Bristol Street Birmingham

Dennis has Elizabeth's husband as John B. W. Goss
but this stood for John Burton Whitehouse Goss
as he was stepson of Abbott Goss as his mother was married before to a Benjamin Whitehouse

Mumbles can you amend where necess...and add to on Bcc if you don't mind

[mumbles]

Thanks RF
I will add in with details of Whitehouse Family.
I did not want to change as connects to Dennis
The Whitehouse family in 1871 :-
17 Wightman Street West Derby Liverpool Lancs.
Benjamin Whitehouse Head 40 Organ Builder
Jane L. Whitehouse wife 34
Benjamin B. Whitehouse son 10
William Whitehouse son 8
John B. Whitehouse son 6
Selina Whitehouse dau 1 born Liverpool Lancs.
William T. Whitehouse lodger 74 (wid) Sail Maker born Liverpool Lancs.
Rest born Birmingham Warks.

Marriage 9/8/1858 St. Paul Wolverhampton Staffs.
Benjamin Burton Whitehouse 28 Organ Builder Sidney Street father Isaac Whitehouse Smith
Jane Lucy Howell 22 Sidney Street father John Howell Pear Button Maker

Jane Lucy Howell became Lucy Goss in 1881

Some questions remain :-

Where are family in 1891 ?
Where did "Burton" come from ?
Why change to Goss for some of family after 1901 ?

[Northern Lass]

I will change re Elizabeth ....so she didnt die in Australia?

but her kids emigrated there?

[mumbles]

That is correct NL unless Dennis has different info
and Death in 1912 ties up with dau Minnie who was born late 1911 and died 1914

I will keep John Burton Whitehouse Goss as Goss despite fact that he was baptised as Whitehouse and put note to explain

Reference Dennis note concerning Elizabeth I will leave with note unless you can contact and ask him to look at

[mumbles]

Have Added all but still not found family in 1891

[Northern Lass]

Ok amended that

do you want to move to brickwalls re census you are after?

[mumbles]
