Correct - Benjamin b1777 is already on BCC

Don't know why I didn't put his children on at the time!
They had:
Benjamin 1802-06
Joseph 1804
Benjamin 1806
Thomas 1806
Jane 1808
Elijah 1810-75
Maria 1812
Sarah 1817-17
All born Brierley Hill

Jo :)

I have added names and dates for what we know. Have been unable to add census as doing from phone! - could you pop those in please Jo?

Think we may be missing a few children for Elijah and Mary Ann as there are some big gaps, and still not sure whether or not Elijah married again to 'Maria' or is this Mary Ann - ages are similar.

Could someone connect William Henry to his wife Ethel Taylor

Elijah (b 1810) burial is here (1875) - can anyone spot any of the others we have been looking at?

And 11 July 1858 is burial for Lucy Shakespeare of Rocks Hill - this looks like Williams wife.

And here, http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.anc ... ptisms.htm
27 March 1843 is a Joseph s of Elijah and Dorothy!?

William Shakespeare/ Lucy Skidmore

Is anyone able to check on witnesses for this?

I strongly suspect that this William is the brother of Elijah b 1810 - William was b1814. Among William and Lucy's children is another Elijah, almost certainly the one who married Harriet Perrins (see earlier post).


Antie em do you have Oldswinford ones pls?
