Bannister Chain Manufacturers

[mumbles]

Thomas Bannister born 1864 married Kitty Billingham daughter of Joseph Billingham founder of Providence Chain Manufacturers
Bannisters lived either next door or a few doors away from each other in Census period 1841 to 1871 and I think all are connected

-----------

All above are on bcc but not all connected also peterd suggests that Eleanor Holloway who married Thomas Bannister had a sister Jane Holloway who married William Bannister( as widow Jane Rudge)brother of Thomas Bannister but has not made connection
Validation that Thomas and William are brothers is fact that Jesse and Elizabeth Bannister children of William are with his brother in 1851
Sarah Bannister must be mother of Thomas and William as Thomas born 1842 is shown as he grd.son

[mumbles]

Entries for 1851 Census show a rare double entry for Jesse and Elizabeth Bannaister

[Northern Lass]

agree mumbles have connected
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =923012041

will add that 1839 marriage to look up

do you think we can connect up Jane?

[Northern Lass]

who does thomas belong to?
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =366415328

[Northern Lass]

can anyone see a bapt or birth pls for thomas b 1842

need Sarah in the prev census too pls

and Thomas

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =270257797

[mumbles]

I think you can connnect Jane
1841 Census New Town Rowley Regis Dudley Staffs.
Sarah Bannister 55 Publican born Staffs.
Caroline Thorneycroft 15 F.S. not born Staffs.

1851 Census New Town Rowley Regis Dudley Staffs.
Sarah Bannister 67 (wid) Victualler born Staffs.
Thomas Bannister grd.son 9 Scholar
Thomas Penn grd.son 16 Blacksmith born Kingswinford Staffs.

Also found Thomas Bannister born 1842 2nd marriage was to a Frances Olden not Frances Owen as recorded on FreeBMD
Can prove by reference to presence of Olden family members connected to Bannister family throughout later Census records

[Northern Lass]

that frances may be misheard on regis office info

[mumbles]

[Northern Lass]

father for William is thomas

[mumbles]

Thanks Nl & RF
I can read all of Certificate except Occupation of 1)Thomas Bannister which looks like Pictualler but could be Victualler
Abraham Barnsley which looks like Cart Man Manufacturer

Abraham Barnsley which looks like Cart Man Manufacturer

I agree Mumbles
put that with a ? after them but yes looks like that to me

are we still sorting who Thomas belongs to?

[mumbles]

Still need to sort out who Thomas belongs to. Must be son of William or Thomas

[mumbles]

Abraham Barnsley who was father of Mary Ann Barnsley could be this Abraham who was brother of Kitty Barnsley who married
Joseph Billingham

Thomas Bannister born 1842 is most likely to be son of William Bannister and Mary Ann Barnsley as they did have children between 1840 and 1852 .
Thomas Bannister born 1819 and Eleanor Holloway born 1813 do not have children showing as living with them but have
nieces and nephews. Why would they have nieces and nephews staying with them and leave their own son with grandmother ?
Thomas Bannister born 1842 also possibly named his first child after his mother Mary Ann and second child after his father Thomas and third child after his grandmother Sarah
Could look up marriage to Nancy Williams in 1861 Bromsgrove ( probably a Clent Marriage)
