[LongLongTimeAgo]

That's very interesting - that Naboth was using Sidaway as his surname by 1871.

[LongLongTimeAgo]

Anyone got any idea which church records one would have to search (or any other way of finding out) to see if the M did stand for Martha in the 1851 Samuel Priest census? St Giles again?

1851
Mill Farm, Bromsgrove
Samuel Prieth 38 - Farmer of 87 acres, employing 2 labs
H Prieth 30 - Farmers wife
A M Prieth 6 - daug
M Prieth 4 - daug
R Prieth 1 - daug - b Bromsgrove
others b Rowley

M Priest = Martha?

[Northern Lass]

Ok so do we have that Joshua Beal marriage we can look up
she looks like she is here
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =425665557

So we think ours is the 1847 Rowley REgis one and down as Martha Sidaway
poss...
1847 SIDAWAY Martha Rowley Regis Sandwell Register Office RR/10/319

Births Jun 1847 Sidaway Martha Dudley 18 286

area is good for that one and that would be the one I would send for
maybe not adding any parents names just incase she was taken in by Samuel and Hannah

so M is prob Martha in 1851 family in Bromsgrove area
Samuel is a farmer but then in 1861 switches to forge labourer now in RR

1851 Mill Farm, Bromsgrove
Samuel Prieth 38 - Farmer of 87 acres, employing 2 labs
H Prieth 30 - Farmers wife
A M Prieth 6 - daug
M Prieth 4 - daug
R Prieth 1 - daug - b Bromsgrove
others b Rowley

M Priest = Martha?
R Priest = Ruth?

Poss A M Priest
Births Mar 1845 Priest Ann Maria Dudley 18 293

and then here in 1861?
1861 Consgreaves Rd, Rowley Regis
Samuel Priest 43 forge labourer
Hannah Priest 40
Naboth Priest 9
Ruth Priest 11
Sarah Priest 6
all born cradley heath

is that what we think?

[Northern Lass]

I have already discounted this Martha Priest, I think she married Joshua Beal in 1869.

Odd though, if the family from Bromsgrove is the correct one, that having been presumably a Priest, she calls herself Sidaway on marriage. Would be good to find her in 1861.

I wonder if they are Priest on census but in church or registration on births or marriages use the Sidaway one.

Looks like his father was a farmer if this is the right on.
