Update look up done! -James Brookes born 1812/3 RR

[mumbles]

I have a James Brookes born 1812/13 RR on my direct Brookes Line
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... onnections
Someone on Ancestry has a large tree with a James Brookes born 1813 RR marrying a Martha Kirby in 1842.
I cannot find marriage and date does not tie up with Census records below as they had dau born in 1838. Other daughters baptisms are shown on RR Parish Registers in 1844.

1841 Census Cox's Lane Dudley Worcs.
James Brookes 25
Martha Brookes 36 Nailer
Mary Brookes 3
All born Staffs.

1851 Census Primrose Hill Dudley Staffs.
James Brookes Head 38 Labourer b.Rowley Regis
Martha Brookes wife 36 Nailer born Dudley Worcs.
Mary Brookes dau 13 Nailer born Rowley Regis
Jemima Brookes dau 9 born Dudley Worcs.
Maria Brookes dau 5mths. born Dudley Worcs.

Can find marriages of Jemima and Maria and descendants but no Census records of James and Martha after 1851

that might be worth a look up mumbles if you fancy adding it to the look ups
wont get father but witnesses might help

cant see that other marriage in 1842

[mumbles]

Nl, I will add for look up but I found 1861 Census which shows Martha as a widow and a Jesse Round as a lodger who could be related to Martha as Round could be Rounds

[Jimmy]

It looks like Martha could have remarried.

Extracted.

MARTHA BROOKES OR ROUND.
JOHN STOKES.
Marriage, 04 DEC 1864, Saint Thomas, Dudley, Worcester,

Good thinking NL.

[mumbles]

Hi Jimmy , That 1871 Census is Taylor
I will insert all census records I have on this family and descendants but will not connect to James Brookes already on bcc yet.

[Northern Lass]

Think we are waiting for a look up on this?

So is it ok to archive pending look ups?

[mumbles]

Archive Mumbles as I have filled in details but not made connection until look up

[Northern Lass]

I have done the look up and added to connections no father as too early but there is a Benjamin brookes and Elizabeth Bache as witnesses

now not sure if that helps cos on the other one here....

no bro Benjamin
there is this one on BCC
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =972971566

so dont know and not followed this thread
so over to you Mumbles and the team

[mumbles]

Nl, It does not look likely that the two James Brookes's are the same so I will research the two witnesses and see if that helps
Thanks anyway
