Jumping Joe Darby /Taylor

[mumbles]

I have always been interested in Joe since my father took me to a pub in Dudley when I was 11 and there was a display all about Joe.
My father always said we were related so I researched and found link back to my Brookes line.
I Bugle they are currently running a story about sister of Joe who was involved in a murder. Some of correspondents have given some good clues as to relatives of Joe and I have followed the Taylor and James Lines and they check out.

This confirms as Elizabeth Willett aged 16 is on Census with Taylor family in 1881

Hannah Brookes married Joseph Willetts in St. Edmunds in 1854

I do not think a look up is necessary on the William Taylor /Hannah Willetts marriage ?

[Northern Lass]

no nor me

what about the willetts and brookes
which willetts is it?

that looks like hannah on BCC mumbles dont ya think?

[mumbles]

Yes Nl
IGI Joseph Willetts aged 19 married Hannah Brooks on 26/2/1854 Brides Father Benjamin
Chasing which Willetts line Joseph came from now

[Northern Lass]

Yes Nl
IGI Joseph Willetts aged 19 married Hannah Brooks on 26/2/1854 Brides Father Benjamin
Chasing which Willetts line Joseph came from now

where did you get the info from re her father on that Willetts marriage in 1854 mumbles
does it have his father on Joseph Willetts father and age?

[Northern Lass]

It doesnt say does it just looked

[mumbles]

I think this marriage is incorrect as Tipton a long way from Windmill End
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =475430698

I think this is wrong marriage also as after marriage Thomas Palmer and Sylvia live in Primrose Hill
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =822877880

I think the Sylvia or Sevia Darby who married William Taylor was daughter of Josiah Darby as both Taylor and Darby Families lived in Windmill End
