Re: Black Country Kendalls
Hi Northern Lass
The info for Harriet, William, John, George, Richard etc (children of William Kendall and Dinah Haden) appears to be slightly wrong. I have a baptism record, well, at least a reference to them being baptised in Romsley, St Kenelms, not
Brerley H

Re: Black Country Kendalls
The church at Clent was the main church for the whole area at one time Richard. Rowley Regis church was really only a chapelry of the church at Clent until it was granted a parish of it's own, not sure of the exact dates, but the vicar of Clent certainly had some power over the vicars of Rowley and Cradley. I have quite a few relatives born around Netherton, Old Hill, Cradley, Rowley and Brierly Hill who were either baptised or married at Clent or Romsley.

Re: Black Country Kendalls
I'm just being pinicatty and trying to come across clever haha...It will be fine to leave as it is for now
Younguns' today ay?
I know the Kendalls' appeared to move into what is now the Blackcountry during the Industrial Revolution. William Kendall B abt 1796 lived in Romsley all of his life after losing his wife Dinah. He appears on the 1851 census as living at 81 Backlane, Romsley but his name was spelt Kendle (Typcial different spelling as know body could spell back then hardly) aged 60
Then in the 1861 cenus he appears again living alone in Backlane aged 71.
I do have a copy of Dinah and Williams marriage record if anyone would like a copy....15th Sept 1818 in,Stoke Prior, Severn Stoke, Worcester? and i have his burial record for "Burials in the parish of Romsley in the year of 1867, buried March 15th, aged 77....a ripe old age.
I don't really know what happened to his other sons apart from my Great x 4 Grandfather, William Kendall B1825. William (I think), on his own, moved to Rowley Regis. He was 16, and on the 1841 census, appears to live at 5 ways...but i cannot tell why or what house he lives at? He seems he is living with The Gile family. Could it be a workhouse? or simply that he is paying rent to live there? He appears to be a "Stone miner".
All seems dandy again by 1851, as he has found love with Mary Ann Raybould,married, and lives at "73 Cradley Heath" and has a son and daughther, and is a chain maker. (The start of a chain making legacy it would seem!) Can anyone back this information up, as his origins baffle me. Could it be that his father could no longer afford to keep the boys after losing Dinah? so they went their own ways?

I think something happened when he was young that made him forget his place of birth exactly. I noticed that on 5 different census's. He says he was born in 5 x diff places! The git haha. See my last post..... a bit of an essay, but i can only assume that he had to make his own way in life after losing his mother.
