Confusion reigns in my poor head, Jan! When I first drew up my family tree on Family Tree Maker - long ago, as you know - I often mixed up the children of two marriages, as here. I'm such a duffer I don't know how to unscramble it all now, short of total demolition! In a word: Marriage One to Sarah Richards who died circa 1815, Marriage Two to Anne Barnbrook in 1815, so the kids listed 1804-1815 must be Sarah's, and my apologies for IGI omissions Lucy and Thomas (did Thomas die young, since there's a later one?), and 1815-1845 Anne's.

If you want the link to a separate Plant line from mine: Thomas and Selah Westwood's daughter Mary 1782-1832 married Joseph Plant 1783-1859 in 1802, son of William Plant and Sobiesketh Shaw. Their daughter Leah Plant b. 1804 married into another Black Country dynasty, the Easthopes, John Easthope 1803-1882 at St Thomas' Dudley in 1825.

note by NL above all added to Bcc

Jeremiah Westwood 1806-1889 (m. Susannah Dowes 1827), son of Jeremiah 1784-1839, son of Thomas Westwood 1757-1805 had a daughter Eleanor Westwood 1828-1877 who - I think - married Elijah Fradgley in 1849 Kingswinford, but I'm not entirely sure whether he was the son of Joseph Fradgley.

Edward Sidaway 1832-1905 married Selina Louisa Westwood 1842-1904 in 1860 in Dudley, daughter of Thomas Westwood and True Holloway - splendid name!

Thank yo Dennis for all that information which I am going to read through now, sorry for delay in replt but my broadband is playing up keeps going off than after so long comes back on.
