KDW, this may be yours. I'm sure his father is down as James on BCC, the 1871 census has Betsy there.
Could you check, I can be a pickle! :lol:
Jo :)

Hi Betsy Hart is mine, i think we have 2 Williams according to the marriage lookup.
I am lost on why they are next door to James in 1871

All born Lye

1871 Hayes Lane Lye

James Aston Head 62 Miner Born Lye

Next Door
William Aston Head 23 Mill Furnace Man Born Lye
