This is a spin-off from the 'Jeremiah Dunn' thread.

Here is Caroline on BCC

Could this be her?

Can't see Andrew & Hannah on BCC.

That's a good possibility Di, can't find Andrew or Hannah in 1841. Stephen and Caroline Dunn are living at Cradley Bridge.

Could this be Andrew with more children?
1841 Birchyfield Lane , Oldbury (FMP has Halesowen, Oldbury) Shropshire
BILLINGHAM, Andrew M 55 1786 Coll?? Clerk
BILLINGHAM, Eliza F 24 1817
BILLINGHAM, Caroline F 20 1821
BILLINGHAM, Sarah F 12 1829
BILLINGHAM, Mary F 8 1833

None born in county

Hmm.. in early census Caroline is said to have been born in Oldswinford, and in later ones at Quarry Bank. These would mesh OK, but what about with a christening at Park Lane Presbyterian, Cradley, Worcester, England?

BARDELL, Charles Son In Law Married M 23 1828 Tin Plate Worker Birmingham Warwickshire
BARDELL, Caroline Daughter Married F 26 1825 Birmingham Warwickshire

I think there might be two Caroline Billinghams about, both with fathers, Andrew.

They obviously wandered about quite a bit and interestingly

1861 84, Mcdonald Street, Birmingham
TAYLOR, John Head Married M 44 1817 Brush Maker Birmingham
TAYLOR, Jane Wife Married F 43 1818 Cradley Worcestershire
TAYLOR, Jane Daughter Unmarried F 15 1846 Kidderminster Worcestershire
BOLLINGHAM, Andrew Father In Law Widower M 75 1786 Retired Coal Dealer Cradley Worcestershire
LOXLEY, Ellen F 13 1848 House Servant London

It could have been his home church or as you say two Andrew Billingham's -- having said that I have tried putting just Andrew in to FMP and it is only bringing the one up consistantly - unless ours died before 1841

So - if there is only one set of Andrew and daughter, Caroline, then this is the wrong Caroline Billingham.

have we that marriage we can add for a look up see who her father is

I think Andrew is not Caroline Billingham-who-married-Stephen-Dunn's father. As he is on BCC. I will start another thread for him. We need to look for another Caroline Billingham.

Di I have added this for look up

Brought this back as look up done

The father of the Caroline Billingham that married Stephen Dunn is a Joseph Billingham
I will add link in min

Joseph Billingham Chainmaker

can we find her bapt with a Joseph?
