I think the wives of this Samuel Hadley:
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... ley-Familywere sisters:
Eliza Shakespeare bapt 28 March 1824, St Thomas, Dudley
Mary Shakespeare born 23 Jan 1822, bapt 17 Feb 1822, St Thomas, Dudley
Samuel Shakespeare married Elizabeth Woodhall 25 Dec 1820, Kingswinford.
Other children of Samuel & Elizabeth (all bapt St Thomas, Dudley):
William bapt 4 Jan 1829
Betsy bapt 10 Jun 1832
Samuel bapt 5 Jul 1835
Sarah Ann bapt 6 Aug 1837
Josiah born 21 Dec 1839, bapt 19 Jan 1840
I suspect the family may have been in West Bromwich, but cannot find any census entries....

I think you're right Jo, no wonder they weren't easy to find! Looks as though Samuel died about 1840-1
