George HOMER M B Miner Netherton Father John Homer Horse Nailer
Clara FRIDGLEY M S Netherton Father Isaiah Fridgley Engineer
Wit; George Green X Emma Smith X

I can see 2 George Homers married to Claras of around the right age, but one (the Walsall one) is in the 1871 census as already married, while Clara is still with her dad in the '71 census, so that leaves the following as possible:

1881
At Islington, Halesowen
George Homer Head 28 Nail Forger b. Staffs., Quarry Bank
Clara Homer Wife 30( Domestic) b. Staffs., Bromley
Frederick Homer Son 11 Scholar b. Staffs., Quarry Bank
Sarah Ann Homer Daur 6 Scholar b. Worcs., Halesowen
Walter Homer Son 1 b. Worcs., Halesowen.

Neither of the Georges are a miner on the census that I can see.

1891
At 12 Lion Place, Bristol, Gloucestershire
George Homer Head 38 Stoker in Iron Foundry b. Quarry Bank (Worcestershire)
Clara Homer Wife 39 b. Bromley (Stafford)
Frederick Homer Son 19 Labourer in Iron Foundry b. Quarry Bank (Worcestershire)
Walter Homer Son 11 b. Halesowen (Worcs.).
Arthur T Homer Son 4 b. St. Thomas, Bristol
Edith J Homer Daur 1 b. St. Thomas, Bristol

1901
At 14 ....? Terrace, Aston P., Birmingham
George Homer Head 49 Foundry Labourer b. Quarry Bank, Staffs.
Clara Homer Wife 49 b. Bromley, Staffs.
Arthur Homer Son 14 Errand Boy - Port b. Bristol, Glous.
Joy Homer Daur 11 b. Bristol
Maggie Homer 7 b. Bristol

That could be Clara couldnt it?


could we find later census for this George pls
1861 Census. Ever? Street, Quarry Bank
John Homer, 54, Horse Nail Maker, Cradley
Jamima, wife, 51, Horse Nail Makers wife
Elijah, son, 17, Horse Nail Maker
Thomas, son, 15, Horse Nail maker
Fanny, daur, 11, domestic,
George, son, 8,
/Enoch, lodger, W, 21, Horse Nail Maker, Cradley
All others born Kingswinford

Looks like John Homer had died by 1871
1871. Butchers Lane, Kingswinford
Josiah Bate, head, 24, ? Glass maker, Kingswinford
Fanny, wife, 24, Cradley
Josiah, son, 4,
Elizabeth, daur, 2 months
Jemima Homer, Mother in Law, 55,
All others born Kingswinford

I don't know on this one

how many George Homers with father John in that area are there?

This looks good to me,George could have changed his occupation.

Ok so that is our Clara and Georege

but

is it George on BCC?

I would say yes, as I can't see another one, but the age his wrong on BCC, the census puts his birth about 1852-3. not 1849.

Ok I have changed dob

and connected up

not got time to add all census so if anyone can that would be good

flagging for help adding info or will archive later
thanks all
