Completed with thanks --Weston query
Ok I have done a look up for Pd
and the father for John Weston says John weston chainmaker
we have Samuel Weston and I think that is correct.
I think either I have copied down the father incorrectly or the entry was incorrect.
On census John married to Dinah puts Dudley wood in 1881
in 1851 Samuel weston and son John are in Dudley Wood- Samuel is a chainmaker
here is John
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... onnections
here is Samuel
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =241209073
the dau of Samuel Mary is I believe one of the witnesses and marries a John Southall in 1868
1868
SOUTHALL John WESTON Mary Dudley, St Edmund Dudley Register Office 201/004/458
going to recheck marriage of John and Dinah
and check Mary and Southall guy
but just wondered ahead of this if anyone had any more info?
Sparks do you have the marriage certif?
Marriage look up <br>
14 December 1873 St Edmunds Dudley<br>
John Weston- 23- bach- chainmaker- Dudley- John Weston- chainmaker<br>
Dinah Kendall- 19- spin- Dudley- William Kendall- chainmaker<br>

Re: Weston query
Sparks it is the name John Weston I want to confirm
it says John on marriage
and should say Samuel
Marriage look up <br>
14 December 1873 St Edmunds Dudley<br>
John Weston- 23- bach- chainmaker- Dudley- John Weston- chainmaker<br>
Dinah Kendall- 19- spin- Dudley- William Kendall- chainmaker<br>
banns<br>
John signed/ Dinah X <br>
Wit- John Southall X / Mary Southall X
do you have this marriage cert?
if not I will look again at the entry at archives
but even if it says John I still believe it is Samuel
it says John on marriage
and should say Samuel

Sparks.
so hang on a min..
I think Sparks you might have the marriages mixed up
ie if you say that on the 1891 this John Weston is living with a Jemima next door to Samuel and Myra then that could be the correct line!
1879
WESTON John HOMER Jemima S Tividale, St Michael Sandwell Register Office 21/1/2
look at the name Homer!
I think we might have a John Weston that married Dinah Kendall and that John Weston had father John Weston
and
I think we might have a John Weston that married Jemima HOmer and that father is actually the Samuel we want with mother Myra

I think the WESTON link could be a coincidence..as Myra, Jimmima were both HOMERS and the
HOMER family were next door !!!. Just a thought!.

I am thinking that this John that married Dinah is the son of a John
You have said above yourself that this John with Jemima is the son of Samuel and Myra!
and if that Mary Weston, the witness at the marriage of a John Weston and Dinah, dies in 1869
then she is not sister of the John who has Samuel as a father is she.
So she may be the sister of the one with father John or another rellie
need that look up on the Jemima one
cos somat aint rite!

1871 and 1881 Census has John (Dinah) son of Samuel and Myra WESTON listed
as a Chainmaker.....I don't think he would have changed his occupation to
General Labourer as listed for John (Jemmima) in 1891 Cens.....especially as John(Dinah) is
down as a Chainmaker on 1891 Census.
Sparks.....
Also John with Jimmima down as Breize merchant (Coal Dir). living Aston St. Tipton
1871 Census;

Re: Weston query
This links now to the Nehemiah Homer already on and so to Di!
I know its not Dereks now but it is interesting
still got to add marriage
and could do with that census adding for this John and Jemima if anyon can to the notes
Sparks you could do with finding out about the mother to your John Weston
stick a new thread on and we can have a delve
