I have done the look up on this and expected the father to be a Thomas Guest

but I am not sure that I can connect up
is it the Thomas Guest on BCC

Here is William Guest b abt 1835
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =531534481

and here is a William Guest b abt 1835 with father Thomas
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =522276369

and here is the marriage

21 July 1856 st Mary Oldsinford<br>
William Guest 21 bach chainmaker stourbridge Thomas Guest nailmaker<br>
Ann Edwards 20 spinster Stourbridge Joseph Edwards merchant Clerk<br>
Banns<br>
Wm signed / X Ann<br>
Wit- Benjamin Sidaway/ X Hannah Mantle

I can't see William in 1861

here he is in 1871

1871 Chapel St, Dudley
GUEST, William Head M 36 1835 Worcestershire Chain Maker
GUEST, Ann Wife F 32 1839 Worcestershire
GUEST, Caroline Daughter F 11 1860 Worcestershire
GUEST, Sarah A Daughter F 9 1862 Worcestershire
GUEST, Esther Daughter F 6 1865 Worcestershire
GUEST, Ann Daughter F 2 1869 Worcestershire

I think it is the same Wm as on BCC with father Thomas and mother Sarah
but want to be sure

Wits marry each other following year
so no clues there
1857

Do we think that is our Wm Guest already on with father Thomas

can we connect
we can add a note

what you think?

can't see another one that fits

I didnt see them in 1861. But 1881 looks like Caroline is then Catherine? More children too.
Sarah Ann marriage says father Dec chain Maker. Seems to fit??
May be just add a note?
Jo

Do you fancy doing the hons and connecting up with a note
and adding the other census?
and deleting the spare Wm and Thomas?

only if you got a min

Cant even go on the Forum support on there to say
Jo
