*UPDATE look up for LIN done!* --Josiah Grove
Done a look up and the father for Josiah Grove is a Samuel Grove nailer
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =530317391
cant see Samuel on Bcc
there is a family with names Samuel and Josiah in but not the correct one.
could connect somehow
He is a widower Josiah on his marriage in 1862
so wonder who prev married to?
can we find out a mother for Josiah too and wife for father sAmuel

Re: Josiah Grove
This is the only Josiah I can find in Halesowen 1851, Birmingham Street
Josiah Grove HD M 49 Nailer Halesowen
Sarah Wife 60 Nailer Halesowen
Joseph Westwood Lodger W 70 Labourer Halesowen
I suppose it could be this Josiah, being as Sarah was 60 in 1851, she could well have died leaving Josiah a Widow

Re: Josiah Grove
Yes, I think Josiah was Married to Sarah, she died and he married Leonora, then she died and he married Mary.
there are Josiah Groves of the right age sequentially in the census living at Birmingham St., Halesowen. Married first to Sarah, then Mary. With a death for Leonora between their marriage and the next census:
Free BMD death:
Leonora Grove abt 1811 1870 Stourbridge Shropshire, Staffordshire, West Midlands, Worcestershire

Re: Josiah Grove
Found this Marriage:-
Josiah Grove and Sarah Holloway 17.4.1825 St Thomas Dudley.
I would think that is correct, Holloway was a big Halesowen name.
Will post a look up for it, see if they were bach and spinster.

Re: Josiah Grove
Thanks for the 1841 details Di. Josiah's dob seems all over the place from 1796 - 1806. Yes the Holloways in B'ham Street must be connected to Sarah. The Hollies were Butchers. Also noticed a Lucy Grove aged 20 in B'ham Street
Can't find Josiah in 1871
Could someone else see if they can find him please? Would be a Widower on his own.
1881 Census B'ham Street Halesowen (he didn't move far)
Josiah Grove 83 Nailer born Halesowen
Mary Wife 53 Charwoman Wolverhampton
Sorry couldn't resist that
Ok can't find a Marriage for Josiah and Mary. Will enter what we have onto BCC.

Hi NL, no don't mention cleaning, not till tomorrow morning at any rate
Here is the link:- http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =323627412
Completed for now, just waiting on look ups.
One query, your Marriage details for Josiah and Leonora, you have her father down as John Hobbis
Should be Job
Will have a look at the Halesowen PR's for parents of Josiah.
Best Wishes from Linell.
