opening up thread for Sarah Jane Jeavons

Possible, John senior could have been a Horse Driver at a Colliery.

1881.

Emma PARSONS. Daur. Female. 9. Dudley, Worcester, Scholar.
David PARSONS. Son. Male. 7. Dudley, Worcester, Scholar.

1891. same address as 1881.
John Parsons 63. Hereford, labourer iron works.
Ann Parsons 56. born Dudley.
Thomas Parsons 26. looks like Tailor.
David Parsons 18.

I don't know on this one Jimmy
couldn't read the occup for him I could have another look see if it is a tailor

I will do that

I think that is our guy

have we the couple on a later census what is his occup then?
after marriage

1901 census would be good

I can't see them in 1901.

1871 Census 13, House Row Dudley Worcs.
John Parsons Head 48 Carter born Lemster Herefordshire
Ann Parsons wife 37 born Whelton Radnorshire
Ann Parsons dau 7
John T. Parsons son 5
Jane Parsons dau 3
Emma Parsons dau 11 mths.
Rest born Dudley Worcs.

1881 Census 61,62 Stafford Street Dudley Worcs.
Thomas Lewis 69 Head Carter born Presteigne Radnorshire
Martha Lewis wife 60 born Whelton Radnorshire
Maria Lewis niece 19 Old Hill Staffs.
Jane Parsons Grd. Dau 13 born Dudley Worcs.

Must be related to Parsons and Radnorshire fits in

I am rechecking that look up will try and decipher occup

So do we think this is our John thomas Parsons with father on all the census

Will archive this unless anyone has any more thoughts

and will recheck the marriage see if we can see occup better
