William Greaves - Susssex 1852
« on: Saturday 27 October 07 08:43 BST (UK) »

I am trying to track my great grandparents Williams Greaves and Frances Ann Dobson. In 1881 census they resided at Ann Street, Bill Quay. There were two children  Anne 2 and William 4 months.

In 1901 they resided at 6 Church Street, Hebburn, and the family had grown to at least seven children. Anne and Elizabeth were not shown on the census, the others were William, Isabella, Joseph, John and Charles.

William was shown as being born in Sussex and Frances in Durham, I think Melaw or some name similar.

Morning Mal Gordon

I tried searching for the birth of William which ought to be Lewes district? no sign of him between 1850 and 1855 but I found a possible for Frances in 1858.

1858 - quarter - June
District - Stockton
volume - 10a, page - 109

Can someone just confirm Stockton the right district for Melaw?

This certainly looks like the right family Kerry. Elizabeth Caroline looks like she was registered on the census as Carrie. She was born in Gateshead, and I think that is the right area.

Thanks

Hi again Mal

I had a look on www.familyhistoryonline.co.uk to see if I could find a baptism for William but no luck sadly.  Do you know who Frances's parents were because I did find the following:

6 Sept 1857 batism of Frances Dobson parents - Joseph and Ann, at Jarrow, St Pauls.

I have found a record of birth for William Greaves, 1852, at Newick, Sussex, which shows a spouse Frances Ann. This could be the right one. Everything fits. I tried to get some information from the website www.familyhistoryonline.co.uk that Kerry provided but to no avail.  I will try again tonight and hopefully get on. It looks like the birth/christening records for Newick in the 1850's are available. Just a matter of finding how.

Cheers from Oz,

Brilliant Malcolm, it was bugging me that we couldn't find William's birth.  Keep trying with familyhistoryonline, it really is a good website, one of my favourites!

Looks like the birth registers on www.familyhistoryonline.co.uk and Sussex Family History site  stop at 1850. Just another small problem. Will keep chipping away.

Thanks Kerry, tried that link but no information there. I will keep adding to my list for later this week when I go to the LDS resource centre again.
