Hi - I am looking for information regarding the parents/siblings of James Billingham (also sometimes called Bellingham), born Tipton c1819 and lived there working as a miner (in fact he was a sinker) with his wife Mary Ann nee Law and their children. These included Betsy, Martha, Timothy, Phillis, Elizabeth, Jane, and twins Maryann and James. I have found him on the census for 1841/51/61. This was not the James Billingham working as a chain maker or similar. I would be very grateful for any information, I seem to be completely stuck!
Welcome to Rootschat Judith I hope you find lots of help as you can see from my last post my only BILLINGHAM is Elijah he is a similar age to your so maybe they will turn out to relate. On Elijah's marriage it says his father was James a Scale Beam Forger should you see him during your research please let me know. I'll keep an eye out for yours Trees
Hello Judith There's this marriage on the IGI index
Timothy Billingham + Martha Sillitoe 9Nov 1801 at St Thomas Dudley
I thought it may be of interest as James had children with those christian names.
Jackie.
Unfortunately, Jackie and Judith, that's a submitted entry. Entries for that year should now be complete on FREEREG but that one doesn't seem to appear under either name.
Thank you all for you help. I have to confess that I believe I got his date of birth wrong - more likely this was c1806. I have failed on the leads you have given me so far, but perhaps this new date will ring a bell with someone?
