hi, I am Alice, I am researching Woodhouse, Powell, Akins ,Randle and Bevington families in Rowley andTipton. I am currently stuck and can't find the wedding of my gg grandparents Benjamin Thomas Woodhouse b 1828 and Phoebe Bennett b 1831. I believe that Benjamins father was John Woodhouse of Roseland Farm Kates Hill Dudley.

Is this them?
1861 Census
Northfield Road, Dudley
Benjamin Woodhouse, head, 32, General Labourer
Phebe, wife, 29,
Sarah Jane, daur, 11,
John, son, 9,

Eliza, daur, 4,
Ami, daur, 1,
Sophia Bennett, Mother in law, W, 80, Formerly Green Grocer

Sophia, Bennett, Head, w, 67, Fruiterer
Benjamin Woodhouse, lodger, 22, Farmer
Phebe Woodhouse, wife, 22,

yes that is them

So this may be Phebe in 1841
Northfied Road, Dudley
Sophia Bennett, head, 51, Fruiterer
Samuel, 23,
George, 17,
Sophia, 14,
Benjamin, 11,
Phebe, 9,

Nothing I can see for now may be someone else can?

look like connect to Di

can't see a marriage

Thank you everyone for the Info, yes the census reports you have posted are all referring to them, I am pretty certain that the Benjamin woodhouse of roseland farm is the Benjamin who Married Phoebe, we have an original copy of the will of Sarah Woodhouse, the sister of Benjamins father john, all ofmy research since then leads me to believe that it came to us via Benjamin(of Roseland farm) and Phoebe my gg grandparents. my only sticking point is the marriage of Benjamin and Phoebe I cannot find it anywhere, of course Phoebe may have been married before so may be listed under another name, or they may never have been married, but as they lived with Phoebes mother across two census returns i find that difficult to believe.

Hi Alice can't see that marriage

going to now move this to Brickwalls

Thank you
thismarriagehas caused big problems i think lotsof people have looked and no one can find it all of the children have listed mother Phoebe Woodhouse formerly Bennett,have approached it from all angles, Phoebe's death certificate has her as phoebe woodhouse, I don'tknow if she had another forename..
anyway thank you.
