I can't see a marriage for Caroline to a Wesson after 1901, where she is a Widow.

My heads spinning with this one....I think we should wait and see
what 'lookup' confirms.

I have added Caroline as mother I think that looks good
I think she must have met a Henry Wesson
really need that birth cert for Frederick
was there one?

I think we can add George henry if the father is an edward and I will come back on that one in a bit

then I think we can add all the Cadman info

what do we think?

1881, Caroline is a Clara.

43 Springfield Lane, Rowley Regis.
Hannah Cadman 33. Widow.
Clara Cadman 13.
Ann Jane Cadman 11.
John Henry Cadman 9.
Anne Cadman 7.
Samuel Cadman 4.
Emma Cadman 1.
William Beston 22. Lodger.

Henry WESSON /Caroline CADMAN could be this Henry WESTON already on BCC.

it is Edward deceased miner

3rd April 1920 St Giles Rowley Regis<br>
George Henry Wesson- 25- bach- labourer- 31 The Knowle Rowley Regis (is what it looked like)- Edward Wesson- deceased- miner<br>

I think you are correct
we need that marriage for Edward and Caroline if father is thomas and age is good on that lot
bet it was his bro Henry

This family went to America about 1904 ---06 .

Is it possible that this Henry is the father of Frederick Wesson.

It says, To brother Albert Wesson New York. but I can't see a brother Albert.

1910. Stamford Ward 1, Fairfield, Connecticut.
Henry T Wesson 49. Carpenter.
Mary Wesson 50.
William Wesson 21.
George Wesson 14.
Wilfred Wesson 12.

Why do you think that Henry rather than the one with bro Edward Jimmy?

Just a note on Wesson and Weston
we are running the 2 surnames so it is useful to see how the name changed over the generations
but
I like where we can not to rely on the census as they seem to stick anything down, as it was heard
so if in doubt check regis details or certifs for how they signed if indeed they did.

I will try and add some of this
but I am confused as to who is this Henry T
do we have him on bcc?
