Re: Moses Green Help Please
Thanks for the death cert.
I am at a loss, getting more confused now. Moses says he's a widow in 1911

Re: Moses Green Help Please
I don't think Hannahs ideath is the same as the Hannah on 1901.
She's married to George Green, will start new thread for her. (Maybe tomorrow )

Re: Moses Green Help Please
I've been looking at Moses from his birth but not looking at what is already on BCC as I wanted to do it without any influence. I will put the info I have here on the forum. I don't think that death is Hannah on the 1901 census either kd.

Through the various censuses, Ann Eliza's name is given differently, from Ann E., Ann Eliza, Eliza and Hannah in 1901 Census. My thoughts on the name Hannah, is that the Enumerator misheard when he was told Ann E (Annnie)

Re: Moses Green Help Please
Thank you BC Wench, if you could add the info for Moses that would be a great help.
I will add the info for Ann Westwood nee Hadley.
That still leaves us with the marriage of Moses and Ann

Re: Moses Green Help Please
I have added everything I have found on Moses Green & Ann Eliza Siviter here
https://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/t ... onnections
Regarding Moses Green & Ann Westwood:-
Marriage: 2 Aug 1896 St Giles, Rowley Regis
Moses Green, 36 or 56, Widower, Miner, Waterfall Lane, George Green, Pork Butcher (B:1860 or B:1840)
Ann Westwood, 54, Widow, Waterfall Lane, Benjamin Hadley, Iron Worker (B: 1842)
Wit: Joseph Evans, Sarah Siviter
Notes: Bride, Groom & 2nd Witness signed with X. Both fathers are deceased
This really needs to be looked at as something is not right here.
On Ann (Hadley) Westwood's Death Certificate in 1923 it gives "Widow of Henry Westwood....." and Henry Westwood died in 1917.
From 1901 - 1911 Census Ann is living with her husband Henry Westwood and family.
In the 1921 Census she is a Widow living in Park Lane, Netherend with her family.
So, why is she classed as a Widow in the 1921 Census if she married Moses Green, the above marriage, in 1896?
I will have a look through this and if (fingers crossed) I find anything I will split it from this topic into a new one.
