I had a feeling it was seeing as first daur called Phebe. Although down as visitor I wondered if Samuel was his father?? Also there is no certainty of Jane Russell being his wife, is it possible to check the marriage that Gardener found on the cradley heath site?

I think that Jane Russell is good as wife area for marriage Kingswinford and living amblecote/quarry bank is good too
trouble is that marriage is early but there will be witnesses with a bit of luck do you fancy adding that to look ups Jo and I will do it gonna add that marriage to the BCC to
10 Oct 1831 Eli Billingham m Jane Russell at Kingswinford
Ok have added that thanks Jo will see if any sibs for Eli
I couldnt see a link to him on that Billinghams site but that bapt looks good that Samuel as a lodger in 1851 and calling kid Phebe
1851 Census Brittle Street, Malecite Eli Billingham, head, 41 Black Smith Staffs Quarry Bank Jane, wife, 42, Wednesbury Phebe, daur, 19, school mistress, Wordsley William, son, 17 Black Smith, ? Jemima, daur, 7, scholar Hamlet Ashford? Samuel, visitor, w, 72, Chainmaker, Rowley Regis
see what marriage says
will add to notes that bapt as a poss too for Eli but not fill in parents
So if we are done with this we can archive pending look up
