Thomas ROBINSON - Glossop
« on: Sunday 06 April 08 21:33 BST (UK) »
Hi

I've got Thomas ROBINSON who was born in abt 1811 in Glossop, Derbyshire.  Thomas married Elizabeth GILL in June 1836 at St Mary's, Stockport.  In 1841 Thomas and Betty are living in Dukinfield with Thomas' mother Jane, and Jane's also with them in 1851 but I can't find out anything more about Thomas.  I've got him on all the censuses until he died in 1884.  I can't find the death of Jane (his mother) which I think should be between 1851 and 1861 but her cert might give me the name of her husband.

Thomas' children were named Jane and Henry.

Thank you for any suggestions

Were Thomas & Elizabeth at the same address in 1861 as they were in 1851?

If not - are you assuming Jane died because they are not living with her or is she not found on the 1861 census?

Have you checked freebmd for her death?

Unfortunately, the GRO index does not show ages against entries for that period which makes it difficult to determine the correct entry - particularly with a surname like Robinson

It's probably unlikely it would show her late husbands name.

Hi Carole

I am assuming she died because she was 65 in 1851 but I've not looked for her in 1861 I guess.

I have checked FreeBMD but I thought her cert might say, "Widow of..." because they have in my past experience - it's worth a shot because I really am at a brickwall Sad

Can't see her in 1861 so in view of her age in 1851 it does seem most likely that she died

Ashton under Lyne was the reg district for Dukinfield but there are 5 entries between 1851-1861 for that area
