DORSETT. Thomas c1833, Princes Risborough
« on: Tuesday 04 March 08 11:27 GMT (UK) »

Oh no, more problems, please help me if you can.  I have the above Thomas as the son of James DORSETT and Rachel nee WOODBRIDGE, P Risborough all.  Have him married to Sarah BLICK in 1854, P Risb.

The ROADS family (rootsweb) project, I have just noticed, has Thomas as the son of John DORSETT and ELizabeth nee WELLS.
Bother, bother, bother.

Can anyone establish which of the DORSETTS he belongs to? I will be very glad indeed if that is possible.

My thanks.

I can see this family in 1841,


1841  HO107/42/13  f.4  p.3 & f.5  p.4  Princes Risborough
White Lion Street
//
DORSETT
John          40     Chair M
Elizabeth    40 
Emma        14 
Hannah      11 
Ellen          9   
Eliza           6   
Thomas      3   
/
Sarah NOWENS? 60          All born in County
//


and in 1851,


1851  HO107/1720  f.507  p.22  Princes Risborough
Parkfield

John DORSET    Head    M    53    Chair Turner   
Elizabeth          Wife    M    52    Lacemaker
Thomas            Son    U    13    Ag Lab
John                 Son    U     8    Scholar           All born Bucks Prs Risboro


the other Thomas DORSETT is here, transcribed as age 12 but looking at the other numbers on the page I think it is 18,


1851  HO107/1720  f.582  p.7  Saunderton
Parsonage Farm

Thomas DORSETT    Serv    U    18?    Ag Lab    Bucks Pr Risboro

Living in the household of James DELL.



In 1861 the younger Thomas is here,

1861  RG09/859  f.24  p.15  Hughenden
Green Street

Thomas DORSETT    Lodger    Unm   23    Chair Maker    Bucks Pr Risboro

Living in the Household of Richard CHILDS.


'Your' Thomas DORSETT is already married to Sarah in 1861  RG9/862  f.17  p.27 (let me know if you need this transcribing).

So it does look like he is the elder Thomas, son of James and Rachel, but the best way to be sure would be to get the marriage cert. and confirm the name of his father.

Thanks Daisy and Mum44 - I think that will be sufficient for me. I needed to be clear on the ages of each Thomas and now I am.
Very grateful to you.  Best wishes

   Hi Maxdog,


  I have looked through the PR 's for you today ...

  John Dorsett bap Sept 12 1830 born 1797.
  Was baptised as an infant but publically admitted to the church on this day.
   Son of Timothy & Ann

   James Dorsett  b 1807

   Baptised 1831  son of Timothy & Ann.


   Thomas Dorsett bapt 1833 son of James & Rachel.

  The whole Dorsett family baptised their children late it seems John & Elizabeth had a mass baptism in 1830 for 5 of their children.

   The Roads site is flawed, I have around 10 mistakes for my family on there that I have found so far, again wrong children attributed wrong dates or names crossed.

Tazzie, thank you so much, I have been trying to establish a link between the families of John and James for months - can be seen from the naming of the children but hard to prove. I am very grateful indeed for the parentage of them both. Hurrah, many thanks.
