this links to the Jane Price thread as look up was on that thread
but adding here to keep it all seperate

So we have a Thomas Brookes here
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =990232964
and I have done a look up which links here..to Mary Price

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =617025916

can we find this Thomas Brookes with dau Maria on census and just see who his wife is

Could be this family, only Thomas in Halesowen; Hawne Pits 1851, does connect to me and Tex, if it proves to be the right family?

Thomas Brookes HD 49 Blacksmith Clent
Sarah Wife 44 Clent (nee Davis)
George Son 18 Halesowen
John Son 14 Halesowen
Thomas Son 12 Halesowen
William Son 7 Halesowen
Sarah DA 2 Halesowen

so that one is not the one that marries Mary Price
he is b 1832 and is a Puddler

and unless this one (above) has a dau in 1862 called Maria not the one a nailer on Marias cert
est that Thomas as abt 1830 which is as I say an est

it looks like this one
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... onnections

Birmingham Street Halesowen 1871
Thomas Brooks HD 30 Spade Moulder Halesowen
Sarah A Wife 28 Oldbury
Elizabeth DA 9 Halesowen
Wm Son 5 Halesowen

He's a Spade Moulder in 1871 NL looks like he changes his jobs? Is Elizabeth, Elizabeth Maria?

Linell.

Ok NL, yes the one you want is the family listed on BCC by Mumbles. I am connected to that line, will be able to add some more names.

Linell.

So that is Thomas the son of that Thomas b 1802
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =535132144

now is the Maria Elizabeth we have here with Father Thomas ( who is a nailer on daus mar doc)
the one here
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... onnections

is that Maria Elizabeth ...Elizabeth age 9
and
did Thomas change jobs to a nailer

can we find Maria on census pre marriage
in Oct 1881

There's this one:-

Vine Inn Pedmore Road Lye 1881
Thomas Brooks HD W 68 Licensed Victualler (not a Nailer!) Lye
Thomas H Brooks Son 25 Lye
Noah Brooks Son 22 Lye
Meria Brooks DA 21 Lye

Or the Halesowen Elizabeth?
Hewitts Cottages Hasbury 1881
Thomas Brooks HD 40 Nail Maker Halesowen
Sarah A Wife 39 Hasbury
Elizabeth DA 19 Hawne
Wm Son 15 Halesowen
George Brooks (Son) 2 Halesowen

Linell.

The Marriage Witness for Maria Elizabeth was Agnes Partridge born Hasbury 1861. Probably a childhood friend, but Agnes's mother was Elizabeth Taylor who connects to the Brook family. Elizabeth's brother Joseph/Josiah Taylor set up home with Ann Brookes nee Cooper, she was the wife of John Brooks born 1837, brother of Thomas 1838, sons of Thomas Brooks and Sarah Davis.

Lin can you add all this please starting with John Brookes and working up to the marriage witness

We can connect the 2 parts I am going to do that bit now
and I am adding notes to Elizabeth ( maria)

Will do NL, I am sure it is the right Elizabeth, there isn't a Maria Brookes in Halesowen in 1881. I have about 100 names that connect with this family, will post a link when it is done. Linell.
