from the article...

By 1841 John Davies was living with his mother and stepfather at Darby Hand. By the age of eighteen John was working as a furnace labourer, and at the age of 24 he married Mary Ann Weston at St. Edmund's in Dudley. She was the fourth child of Thomas and Sarah Weston, a family of nail forgers from Old Hill, and John and his new bride settled near her parents, living first at Halesowen Road in Old Hill, before moving to King Street. The couple had four children, but with child mortality rife in the mid-19th century, it appears that only George, the eldest, survived into adulthood
