Hello, I am new to the family history hobbie, and still find it difficult not going off on a tangent when i find a piece of information. I need to be more focussed. My interests are around Netherton, Dudley, Pensnett and Kingwinford. Not living in the area makes it more difficult but i am hoping to spend a day in the area soon.
I am having real difficulty with trying to find the mother of Sarah Jane Jones who married John Jones in1884, she is burried at St. Marks Pensnett so I will be trying to find her birth date to send for a certificate.
I also hve some confusion with a William Lepdad/Leopard who married a Rozetta Rolinson on 10.2.1851 but he subsequently changed his name to Guest, why I don't know, he was living in Dudley at the time. So I have plenty to get stuck into, just as well with the weather!!

The witnesses were William Henry Jones and the mark of RosannaJohnston.

do you know who else is in the grave at pensnett ? unknown

could do with fathers names

John Jones father was Thomas a carpenter living in Dudley
Sarah Jane Jones was Joseph Jones living in Dudley he was a miner



and bride and groom ages so we can look on censuses

Haven't got exact dates both born around 1862

any one find these on census either married or with parents

nessa do you have any censuses ?

I've been looking for Sarah with father Joseph but no luck so far. Nor with hubby John. Is there any childrens names known?
