Shaun going by the occupation that he has,Whitesmith, coach spring builder & Blacksmith and worked within the railway.Are typical of the sort of jobs a Blacksmith would do.There were hundreds of jobs in the railways for a smithy he even made the seats & the Big Gates.Next time you go to an old station have a look around. When he was employed to do a particular job,like making springs for coach.That was his occupation at the time.His trade was blacksmith maybe he was out of work in 1845 and he wasn't smithing anything I wonder if he hung any bells when he was a whitesmith I was going to suggest that you ask for a census to find out which of the three Samuels in 1870 are yours,hopfully you will find out.There were a lot more Samuel Jones when i got to the 1860's

Joan the record office is only open at the weekends, so it will be this/next weekend before i can go.All the libraries have the directories,but only a bit of each.So i have to go to various places for various years I did however go through some today that were available.There was no mention of John Guy in the1845/47/49/50. There was no Blackstock Road in the 1849,it was in a later one.I did take all the Guy surnames though,do you want them.Can you slim the years down a bit

Thank you Celia .Thomas is one of ours there were other children Ellen was one b 1859 she was my husbands g mother married to Alfred Wood in 1882 .I am very grateful for what you have found .Do you think you could look up John fletcher b about 1805/8 he was a blacksmith the only thing is I can only guess he lived in the center of Liverpool where all the family came from .I tried to find him on the 1841 census but had no luck .his wifes name was Ellen Hill (widow) I think .But whatever you find if anything I am very grateful .and thank you again Celia .

Joan I had a look through about 8 directories from 1845 to 1864.The only Fletcher Blacksmith (and the only blacksmith) in one and a half pages turned up in 1855 Richard Fletcher Blacksmith 10 Grump Street. John Fletcher Blacksmith appears in both 1859 & 1860 address 10 Grump Street .Then they dissapear after 1860,Richard wasn't in the two later directories so maybe died or retired.
