Hi all, hate to throw a spanner in the works but Benjamin was born in Kingswinford
See here from James Hingley's Will:-
Martha married Benjamin Col(l)ey, a chain maker, and had six children. Benjamin was born in Kingswinford, which is where he married Martha
Linell.

BENJAMIN COLEY 03 MAR 1799 Cradley, Worcester,--------------------------------------
MARY COLEY Christening: 12 MAY 1799 Cradley, Worcester,
SARAH COLEY Christening: 24 MAY 1801 Cradley, Worcester,

That name Caroline I think links Benjamin / Anne
and the occup for John too on later bapt
from transcripts courtesy of Linell
earlier ones just say son of John and Sarah and Da of John and Sarah.
Jane 1815 da of John and Sarah Coley Cradley Heath Forgeman
Samuel 1818 Cradley Forgeman
Phoebe 1820 near the Ashes Forgeman (that is Cradley)
Caroline 1825 Cradley Forgeman.

Re: *Help pls adding to BCC* --Samuel Coley b abt 1821
You know I was looking this morning at this family and going to add but then got tied up.
I cant remeber exactly now why I was a bit cautious about it though.
Something to do with a John as a forgeman, Humphrey and is it Bellbroughton?
Is that a place and if yes where would that area be?
Jo
Going to look and see if I can find what I was looking at but have got yet more visitors soon.

Re: *Help pls adding to BCC* --Samuel Coley b abt 1821
Bellbroughton is Clent
the trouble is there are Coleys marrying there too.
What we don't know is how this John born 1776 links to the other Coleys
I think his parents are JOhn Coley and Sarah Smith
Timothy is his brother
I wonder if John b 1776 links as bro to Apollos
but no bapt......

Re: *Help pls adding to BCC* --Samuel Coley b abt 1821
As Lin says if Benjamin married kingswinford he prob put otp
so place of birth is unclear if 1841 he puts no to b in cty
and 1851 he puts Cradley Heath
this is good though
3 Nov1839 St Thomas Dudley
Samuel COLEY O B Forgeman Cradley Heath Parish Of Rowley Regis Father John Coley Forgeman
Elizabeth BARNSLEY O S Cradley Heath Father Thomas Barnsley (Dec) Fruiterer After Banns Samuel signed the mark of Elizabeth
Wit; Eliza Barnsley X William Horton
and John and Samuel next door at sched 112 and 113 on 1851
1841 think John is still near Mary Coley Humphrey etc etc
bapts confirm occup as a forgeman
later census changes occup I think

Re: *Help pls adding to BCC* --Samuel Coley b abt 1821
Yes the Newtown one is ours
he must start off as a forgeman and then ends up as an ag labourer
his son is that Samuel
the bapts say forgeman
marriage forgeman
1851 next door to son
I have put notes on
and am now going to fill in Samuel
