Look-up no longer needed - thread now a general Carver ramble and gathering of the clan!
full refs for these people in 1851 in Wrestllingworth. If anyone is able to do that it would be much appreciated.
Young Carver born Wrestlingworth circa 1799 wheelwright
Mercy Carver his wife born Wrestlingworth circa 1801
James Carver born Wrestlingworth circa 1830 Wheelwright
Alice Handley (married James Carver in 1852) born Wrestlingworth circa 1825
Letitia (Letty or even Louisa) Handley Alice's mother born in Cockayne Hatley circa 1806
Any other Carver's in the village would be of interest as they all appear to be related. Thank you in anticipation Jan

Thanks David. Further confirmation at last that Young is almost certainly James' father. Had rather hoped there'd be a wheelwright still alive who could be Young's father, but you can't have everything!  Jan

Thanks for that David, very kind of you. I think 1861 must have been a peak year for Carvers. All the best Jan

I agree that the James who married Alice in 1852 certainly appears to be Young's son, as the ages fit perfectly. The marriage cert/parish register would ccnfirm this.
Was James christened as a 16 year old in 1846, as there is a christening of James, son of Young and Mercy on the IGI?

David

Hi David
Unfortunately James and Alice's marriage certificate confirms nothing as they both declined to give father's details. I've seen the IGI christening and assumed it was as you suggested. That along with James and Alfred Carver being listed, together, in 1890 Kelly's as village wheelwrights and Mercy Carver appearing on 1871 census as Alfred's mother led me to believe Young and Mercy were James' parents. Now your 1841 and 1861 info makes this even more certain. Probably the best I'm going to get until the 1851 census becomes available. Thank you again
Regards Jan

Hi
If you find a link between your Carver ancestors and Norfolk, let me know. I thought my family came from E Yorks until I uncovered a couple of brothers had moved there in the 1840s. Their cousin moved to Newcastle at about the same time. This might indicate a propensity to being itinerant within the family and Bedfordshire is much closer.
I have Thomas Carver b1680 at the top of my tree at present, so there is room for somebody to have moved. However, if you know that your family are Beds since the dark ages, kindly disregard this note.

Hi Nick
No Norfolk links that I know of. They are certainly Wrestlingworth bound back to late 18th century. If any links crop up I will let you know.
Happy searching Jan

Hello again Nick,
I'm posting these families from the 1881 census out of interest really, are they any connection with you? It also explains the reduction of carver's in Wrestlingworth between 1861 and 1881, I wonder why they moved to Yorkshire.  Jan

Thanks for this. There are quite a few W Yorks Carvers that I have not been able to link to our family - perhaps they all come from Beds? My Carvers are mainly in the E Yorks area, but John Carver who moved up to Yorkshire in the late 1830s (current assumption) was living in the city of York when he married in 1840.
There are two strands of Carvers in Norfolk - tradespeople from Norwich and agricultural people from outside. The two may be linked, but if so it is back before the 17th century. I like to try and make sure that anyone researching the name is aware of these facts as although no link may be apparent at present, one might emerge in the future.
Good hunting
Nick
