Have found a Thomas Davies on 1901 Census married to an Annie..


Thomas Davies 34
Annie Davies 33
Lucy C J Davies 11 months

Occupation of Thomas is listed as Vice Maker which fits as his father Aaron Davies was also a vice maker.

Thomas was born in 1867 in Cradley

Father Aaron and mother Susannah

Want to verify if this Thomas is the son of Aaron and Susannah..

Do you have a marriage certificate for Thomas and Annie? - this would verify the father's names.

No I don't.. I'm still trying to work out if this Thomas is the one in my tree.

Have just found him in 1891 and occupation then is what looks like Anchor/Chainsmith.. which is different from the vice maker in 1901, so that has me thinking it's not the same Thomas.

Hi Nutsy, this one could be him, I checked as you say he is at home with Aaron and Susannah in 1891. But he is not with them in 1901, so he either died, moved out or married?

1901 Census Back of Heath Street B'ham. (think Heath Street is Smethwick)
Thomas Davies HD 34 Tube Maker Puddler (his jobs could be more or less the same) born Cradley Staffs
Kezea Wife 33 born B'ham
Lizzie D 6 born B'ham
Harry Son 4 born B'ham
Lillie D 2 born B'ham
William 2 months born B'ham

You need to get a look up or the Marriage Cert Nutsy, best wishes from Linell.

Thanks Lin.... will go see if I can find that marraige

Well, unless I'm missing something or looking in the wrong place/time, I can't seem to find any marriages for a Thomas Davies and Kezea (whoever).

Hi Nutsy the nearest one I can find is the Marriage of Thomas Davis to a Catherine Cole Sep Qtr 1894 B'ham. The Kezea could be a nickname, not spelt very well? Best Wishes from linell.

The family are already on Connections http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =879958249

Nutsy is just trying to add to it.

So Nutsy if we dont have this census info on Connections please add it to the notes where relevant
it all helps to build up a picture of the ancestor

to get the notes in some sort of order you need to use comp code to tell it to go to the next line
so when adding for eg

1901 Census <br>
