What sort of time frame are we looking at? The Hem is not familiar to me and Ive not come across it in my own research.
Jones & Bailey are names that are still around in Dawley indeed I have a marriage to a Bailey in my own tree, let me know some names and I will see if I can found out anything for you.
There's a place called 'The Hem' between Shifnal and Madeley, only a couple of miles from Dawley; also there's a Hem Lane off the A4169 Shifnal-Halesfield road.
Hi, I have Susannah Bailey, from the Dawley/Shifnal area, daughter of John Bailey and Susannah Pitchford. John was my 5x G grandfather. If this is indeed your family I have many others associated with them. And with the Pugh family into which Susannah married.
I have a Susanna Bayley who was born around 1765. She married Edward Jones on Nov 12, 1787 in the Shifnal Parish. All of their children were born in The Hem area. Hopefully there is a fit. Thanks Shirley (Canada)
