*UPDATE look up for PD done!* ---Joseph Parkes. Who are you?

Post by hereiam »

Hi folks,
I'm hoping someone will be able to help with a Parkes family query.
Abraham and Ann Parkes, of Siviters Lane/Rowley Village, had six known children, the eldest Joseph appears in the 1841 census aged 19 years.
In 1851 there are 3 Joseph Parkes, that I know of, of the right age in Rowley Regis.
Joseph Parkes who married Sarah, aged 29, a nailmaker. Then living in Gosty Hill.
Joseph Parkes who married Fanny, aged 30, a nailer. Then living in Mincing Lane.
Joseph Parkes who married Elizabeth, aged 29, (you guessed it) a nailer. Living in Blackheath. Surname spelt Parks in this census.
If one, or fingers crossed, two can be excluded as belonging to another Parkes family it will make things easier.
Any help appreciated.

An Ancestry Tree (crockett Family Tree ) suggests that this Joseph Parkes married a Sarah, and is the father of George Benjamin Parkes b. 1846 Rowley Regis.

Maybe this eliminates one Joseph?

Free BDMs:
Samuel Bayte 1846 Dudley (To 1912) Staffordshire, Worcestershire
Michael Cockin 1846 Dudley (To 1912) Staffordshire, Worcestershire
Thomas Green 1846 Dudley (To 1912) Staffordshire, Worcestershire
Fanny Haden 1846 Dudley (To 1912) Staffordshire, Worcestershire
Joseph Parkes 1846 Dudley (To 1912) Staffordshire, Worcestershire

Eliza Price 1846 Dudley (To 1912) Staffordshire, Worcestershire
Priscilla Southall 1846 Dudley (To 1912) Staffordshire, Worcestershire
Elizabeth Williams 1846 Dudley (To 1912) Staffordshire, Worcestershire

On BCC, the Joseph who marries Fanny Haden is down as the son of Joseph Parkes and Phoebe Unknown.
"Joseph Parkes
Birth: Mincing Lane
Christening: 01 APR 1821 Rowley Regis, Stafford,"

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =122911878
cf.
1851
At Mincing Lane, Rowley Regis
Joseph Parkes Head 30 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Hanny Parkes Wife 24 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis ('Hanny' on transcript, but 'Fanny' on image.)
James Parkes Son 4 Nailer's Son b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
John Parkes Son 3 Nailer's Son b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Ann Parkes Daur 9 Mo Nailer's Daur b. Staffs., Rowley Regis

Other Parkes on same page include:
Samuel age 31 b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Josiah age 39 b. Staffs., Rowley Regis

I thought these could be brothers of Joseph 1821, but neither are on BCC as children of Joseph and Phoebe.

1861
At Mincing lane, Rowley Regis
Joseph Parkes Head 40 Nail Maker b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Fanny Parkes Wife 34 Nail Maker b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
James Parkes Son 14 Nail Maker b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
John Parkes Son 12 Nail Maker b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Elizabeth Parkes Daur 9 Scholar b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Ellen Parkes Daur 4 Scholar b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Joseph Parkes Son 3 b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Fanny Parkes Daur 3 Mo b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Emma Hadley Boarder 19 Nail Maker b. Staffs., Rowley Regis

1871
At Hackett St., Rowley Regis
Joseph Parkes Head 50 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Fanny Parkes Wife 45 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
John Parkes Son 23 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Elizabeth Parkes Daur 18 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Ellen Parkes Daur 16 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Joseph Parkes Son 12 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Caroline Parkes Daur 8 Scholar b. Staffs., Rowley Regis (Is Caroline Fanny?)
William Parkes Son 6 Scholar b. Staffs., Rowley Regis

1881
At 35 Hackett St., Rowley Regis
Joseph Parkes Head 60 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Faney Parkes Wife 66 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Joseph Parkes Son 20 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Fanny Parkes Daur 18 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
William Parkes Son 16 Nailer b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Samuel Parkes Son 13 Scholar b. Staffs., Rowley Regis (where was Samuel in 1871?)

OK, NL, I'll put all these census on BCC. :wink: - Done

Although we have this on BCC:
"Marriage info
31 Dec 1844 St Thomas Dudley
-Joseph Parkes of full age- bach - hoopmaker- Dudley Wood parish of Dudley- Benjamin Parkes deceased- nailer
-Sarah Willetts of full age- spinster- Dudley Wood - George Willetts - Grocer
-banns
-Joseph signed X Sarah
Wit- Thomas Willetts X and Ann Evans"

here: http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... &pid=10623

we can't yet eliminate Sarah as a possible wife for Joseph as there are lots of possible Joseph Parkes to Sarah marriages on Free BMDs.

One of Joseph's siblings married in 1847. The witnesses were Joseph Parkes and Elizabeth Parkes so it is possible/probable Joseph married an Elizabeth.
