*Arch tbc* -Marriage look up update-Henry HOLLOWAY

[ourmeal]

Hi,

My first time posting to a forum like this so apologies for any gaffes and all help appreciated.

Have been doing my family's history (HOLLOWAY) and worked my way back to henry HOLLOWAY (Born abt. 1809, Saltwells, Dudley). Here's a link to tree of henry's descendants that i've worked out so far...

http://www.ourmeal.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/

I've noticed that some of those folks can be found at Black Country Connections including...

arthur HOLLOWAY (Born abt. 1857, Cradley Heath)
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tribe/browse?view=0&rand=925387488&pid=3357&userid=bcconnections

and arthur's wife louisa STRINGER (Born abt. 1858, Cradley Heath)
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tribe/browse?userid=bcconnections&view=0&pid=2651&rand=79742221

henry HOLLOWAY married twice, firstly to mary ROSE (Born abt. 1811), and they had their son thomas HOLLOWAY (christened at St. Thomas, Dudley, 8 March 1840)... thomas HOLLOWAY went on to marry betsy PEARSON (Born abt. 1843 in Worcestershire)... thomas HOLLOWAY and betsy PEARSON married at St Thomas, Dudley, 6 Jan 1836). thomas HOLLOWAY and betsy then moved to Lancashire (!!)

henry married again in the mid 1850's to harriet (*possibly* harriet SIMCOX), and they had children... arthur HOLLOWAY who married louisa STRINGER (as above)... also joseph HOLLOWAY (Born abt. 1859 in Rowley Regis) and Mary J HOLLOWAY (born about 1862).

joseph HOLLOWAY and harriet had two children... joseph HOLLOWAY (Born abt. 1890, died in WWI in 1918) and Bessie HOLLOWAY (Born abt 1891 in Dudley).

So... any information on henry HOLLOWAY (Born abt. 1809 in Saltwells) and his ancestors/descendants would be very much appreciated...



Many thanks,

Nick Holloway (born and bred in Melbourne, Australia!! ended up living and working in the Midlands, only to discover years later I'm descended from the area!!)

Hi Nick and welcome to the forum

The Black Country Connections tree is a project quite a few of us are involved in so your input will be great!
Let me know if you want to get involved with it.

Now I think this is Henry
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =912561697

his father seems to be from Saltwells area in a will ...
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =547468462

if we feel this is the correct Henry we can link up.

do you have the marriage info for Arthur I can join up the tree to this Henry we have on if we all feel it is a good match
