Hi,

I am interested in finding out information on my great great grandparents.

James Jones born 1841 in Old Hill Rowley Regis, Dudley.
James was married to Hannah ? born about 1847 in Rowley Regis.
In 1871 & 1891 she was a nail maker.

James Jones

1861 Census "“ aged 20 living at Garretts Lane, Rowley Regis.
1886 Marriage "“ 1st quarter "“ Dudley, Staffordshire, Volume C3 Page 90.

1901 Census "“ aged 60 living at 34 Wrights Lane, Old Hill, Rowley Regis. James is a watchman at a chain works

James parents John Jones born about 1815 in Rowley Regis (who in 1851 & 1861 was a nail maker) and Hannah ? born about 1809 in Rowley Regis.
James brothers and sisters.....

Philemon Jones 1841,
James Jones 1841,
Phillip Jones 1841,
Samuel Jones1844,
Mary A Jones 1847
Hannah Jones 1850.

James wife MAY be Hannah Marsh. IF SO, she was baptised on 30 March 1848 in Sedgley fathers name Joseph Marsh and mothers name Ann.
1851 Census "“ aged 4 living with her family
John Marsh, 24, Head, Iron Miner "“

James & Hannah"™s children
John Jones 1867 "“
Eliza Jones 1873 "“ 1929
Mary Ann Jones 1875 "“ 1952

If she is Hannah Marsh her brothers and sisters were: James Marsh 1845, Hannah Marsh 1847, Leah Marsh 1851, Edward Marsh 1852, Thomas Marsh 1854, Ralph Marsh 1856, Paul Marsh 1858, Joseph Marsh 1859, Esther A Marsh 1860, Betsy Marsh 1863 & John Marsh 1865.

Do you have any of the missing information? Can we share information and certificates?
Do you know if Hannah is Hannah Marsh or is her surname different?

Many thanks,

Caroline

<<James wife MAY be Hannah Marsh. IF SO, she was baptised on 30 March 1848 in Sedgley fathers name Joseph Marsh and mothers name Ann.>>

That's not her Caroline, father John and as far as I am aware the Marsh family were either Baptist or Methodist, so the children would have been baptised in a Non Conformist Chapel.

I have James and Hannah Jones with son John 1871 Old Hill Cross. James is a Horse Nail Maker.

In 1881 they are in Lion Lane living next door to Hannah's brother James Marsh. With children John 1867, Eliza 1872, Mary 1876.

All born Rowley Regis.

The Philemon and George you flagged Jan were Jews Harp Makers so probably not the same family
