Re:BROOKES - 1891 Census - KIDDERMINSTER AREA

Hi there Marjorie

A little while ago you placed the following query in the 1891 Census Lookups:

Hallo  -  I am sure you are very busy but would be very grateful if you could trace two of my ancestors in the 1891 census.:"SARAH JANE BROOKES  born 29 August 1851 at Bewdley Kidderminster Worc.
HENRY WILLIAM BROOKES born 5 December 1871 at Kidderminster Worc."


RG12/ 2313/ Folio 60, Page 37 – St Mary, Kidderminster
Brookes John, Head, Widower, 70, Weaver, born Kidderminster, Worcs
             Sarah, Dau, Unm, 39, Housekeeper, born Bewdley
             Nellie, Dau, Unm, 23, Yarn Winder, born Bewdley
             Harry, Grson,Unm, 20, Weaver ?, born Kidderminster
             George, Grson, Unm, 13, Scholar, Kidderminster
             Charlotte, GrDau, Unm, 7, Scholar, Kidderminster

Although there are 5 Henry Brookes in the 1891 census for Worcs aged 19, none were born in Kidderminster, Worcs.

Hope the above will be of help to you

 Cheesy     Hi Chris  -   once again you seem to have sorted out a problem for me (you recently helped me with my Smith family)!

Sarah Brookes definitely seems to be my grt. grt. grandmother.   I think she was an unmarried mother as on her son William Henry Brookes' birth cert. she is shown as Sarah Brookes, no maiden name, no father's name.

In 1901 Henry is living with his wife and four children also his mother, Sarah Brookes, widow, aged 49, born at Bewdley, and cousins, Charlotte Brookes aged 17, George Brookes aged 23 and Frederick Brookes aged 8 all born at Kidderminster.     So I think this is definitely my family.    

Very very many thanks once again.

I have to agree with you - all the ages and names tally between the 1891 and 1901 census returns.

Its a pleasure to help you - If you need any more help in the future, you know where I am

Best of luck with your ancestor quest

 Embarrassed  Hallo again Chris   -  bit cheeky of me, but wonder if you happened to note the address of the Brookes family in Kidderminster in the 1891 census?

Would be ever so grateful if you have.

(How do you manage to do your own research with all the help you are giving to others on this site?!)

I am looking for family members of the late William Henry Brookes, born in Kidderminster 21 October 1871.
He emigrated to British Columbia and enlisted in the 88th Battalion Victoria Fusiliers on 3 April 1916. 
At the time of enlistment he gave his address as Cloverdale, Surrey, British Columiba, and his next of kin was his wife Amy.  He had served 12 years in the Lancashire Fusilliers in Sudan and South Africa.
