While on the subject of this GUEST family, it may help BCC to know that my research suggests that Elijah's brother JOHN GUEST married ANN MARIA HUGHES (nee KENDRICK) in the Parish Church, Rowley Regis on 18 July 1858. A copy of the marriage certificate shows John (aged 23 years) was a widower and Ann Maria (aged 24 years) a widow and he is described as a Miner. His father is shown as Benjamin Guest, Horse Nail Maker, and Ann Maria's father is shown as Joseph Kendrick, also a Horse Nail Maker. The witnesses are William Winwood and Sarah Taylor.

No information yet found on John's first marriage.

JOHN GUEST died in the September quarter of 1858 and Ann Maria subsequently had a daughter, SARAH ANN GUEST; a copy of her birth certificate confirms her father was John Guest, Coal Miner - Deceased and that she was born in Two Gates, Cradley on 31 January 1859.

ANN MARIA KENDRICK had previously been married to Amos Hughes (but no record of that marriage has yet been found) and had a son with him, also called Amos Hughes.

The 1861 census shows Ann Maria (Guest) living in Fatherless Barn, Cradley with her parents Joseph andv Ann Kendrick and her 2 children, Amos (Hughes) and Sarah Ann Guest.

Ann Maria subsequently married again in 1861 to a Jacob Friend.

Sarah Ann Guest is my direct link to this family.

The Cradley Vicar's Notes for 1857 has the Kendrick family living at North Side of Two Gates Lane - Joseph Kendrick Nailer No Church - Ann C Of E Church - Maria Hughes 24 Widow Nailer - Solomon 16 Feb attends Baptist Sunday School - William 9 Nailer Baptist Sunday School - Alfred 7 Baptist Sunday School - Leah 6 Baptist Sunday School and Tisdale School will be National School - Grandson Amos Hughes 3 September. Solomon wishes to attend C Of E Sunday School not Baptist.
