PROSSERS OF WEOBLEY
« on: Tuesday 23 May 06 12:23 BST (UK) »

I am looking for information about the family of Hannah Prosser who married Stephen Jones in Weobley early 1800s. They had a large family.

Do you mean Hannah's parents/siblings, or her and Stephen's family? I've found Stephen and Hannah, + their children, in 1841 census if you need that?

Hi Catherine

I am looking for any information about them so a copy of the 1841 Census would be a great start.

Thanks

Hi Catherine

Thanks for that info.  I know that there were about 15 in the family so some of them may not have been born at that time and others may have already married.  I do know that Eliza married a Joseph Prosser but I'm not sure of the dates off hand.

Hi Catherine

Are you able to look for their son Stephen who married Ann Price in 1838 at Eign Brook Chapel, Hereford and Dore

I hadn't realised that he was married at the time of the 1841 Census.  Would you be able to check the 1851 Census also?

Thanks

Their children as baptised in Weobley were:
Hannah b 31/12/1809
Thomas b 7/4/1811
Betty b 22/3/1812
Stephen b 20/12 1812
William Charles b 25/9/1814
Thomas b 30/7/1815
Eliza b 21/7/1816
William b 26/7/1818
James b 11/9/1819
James b 10/6/1821
Mary Ann b 12/8/1821
Selina b 28/7/1823
John b 22/6/1828
Emma Victoria b 5/12/1830

2 Thomases and 2 Jameses indicate the first ones died. No idea why 2 baptisms were so close in 1821 - Could be a mistranscription for 1820 or a late baptism for James 2

Woops I realised I had not searched long enough for the younger children and found :

Susan Amelia bapt 28/2/1836
Hannah Maria bapt 10/3/1833
Thirza bapt 1//8/1825.

Wonder if Ann/Anna is Hannah Maria  - or this another Hannah named after first one b in 1809 died ?

Still a huge family  - lucky to have agood job like a blacksmith

Stephen Jones Jr. came to Australia mid 1800s and settled in the Windsor area of NSW.  We have never been able to establish under what circumstances.  He and Ann had two more children but he died before the last one was born.  Tragically Ann herself was drowned some years later and the family all moved to Queensland.  Again we have never been able to establish a reason for the move but the family seems to have remained in Queensland ever since, around the Rockhampton and Townsville areas as pastoralists and farmers.

Do you have a date when Stephen Jnr emigrated ?
Is he on the UK 1861 census ?

Do you have the details of the children born in Weobley and Kington ?

Below are the names of his children as recorded on the 1841 and 1851 Census that someone has kindly found for me.

He migrated between 1847 and 1852 when his son Albert Price Jones was born.  Later in 1857 Elizabeth Annie Jones was born. He died in July 1857 before she came into the world which is really sad.



This must be the marriage you mentioned -
