Hi

My grandmother, Hannah Dimmock [1905-1969], was born in Normanton Yorkshire.

She was the daughter of William [1856-1915], born in either Burslem [1911 census]; Dudley Wood [1901 census]; or Cradley [1891 census]; or Dudley [1861 & 1871 census] & Elizabeth, [1864-1911], born in either Burslem [1911 census]; Rowley Regis [1901 census]; or Dudley [1891 census].

I'm having problems finding William in the 1881 census - on the 1911 census he indicates that he and Elizabeth have been married 32 years.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the quick response.

Unfortunately Linell this isn't my William - I've found this one still in tranmere in 1891. Mine is living in Featherstone.

I've considered the one suggested by Mark and have put him down as a possible as there's no way to confirm it without usig a Tardis.

You don't know the name of Elizabeth do you?
wondering if it is a Johnson?

do you have the birth certif for Hannah Dimmock?
or a marriage at all for William and Elizabeth

Hi Doug, you wrote < on the 1911 census he indicates that he and Elizabeth have been married 32 years.>

Therefore they Married about 1879 then? Shouldn't they both be on the 1881 Census?

Sorry getting confused here.

Linell.

Hi

Thought I had my nan's birth cerificate but can't find it so I'll put this on hold for the moment until I get it then maybe we can move forward on this.

Doug

Ok Doug we can archive this pending more info
then just pm me and we can bring it back for further discussion

so will now flag to archive

Brought this back for Doug who now has info on the birth cert

Doug if it is this couple
1884
DIMMOCK William JOHNSON Elizabeth Cradley Heath, Holy Trinity Sandwell Register Office 19/1/127

then be awared that that should say
Old Hill Holy Trinity

we have a photo of that church in BCC photos if you would like it I will send it you
I took it

can you add the birth cert details here and we can then add this lot to Bcc

that marriage can be looked up by me if you would like

Here's the details from my nan's certificate:
Registration District: Wakefield
1905 birth in the sub district of Normanton in the county of York

Name: Hannah
Father: William Dimmock
Mother: Elizabeth Dimmock formerly Johnson
Occupation of father: Coal miner

Doug

Have we got an accurate dob for Elizabeth
just trying to pin her down on bcc
that marriage will be looked up and we can find her father

just wondering if we have this couple on later census
we do have an Elizabeth b abt 1865 father Henry Johnson

Hi

It is indeed that family in 1901 - I notified ancestry of the change - fortunately my mum remembered an Uncle Laban!

In 1911 they're living at 100 Ings Lane Castleford.
