WYRVIL?
« on: Saturday 19 July 08 12:28 BST (UK) »

Hi, according to the 1901 census, a relative was born in Wyrvil, Salop.

Has anyone idea what it is supposed to say?

Hello Debbie   Cheesy   Welcome to Rootschat   Grin

Can you tell us the lady's name - then we can see whether we can find her in previous census and perhaps make sense of this entry then?

It could read as  "Wyevil" and possibly should be "Wyevale"

Birthplace per 1891 looks like Salop, Otallon??? RG12/3263/74/10

Sarah's birthplace is given as Warfield, Shropshire in 1881, so perhaps Wyrvil was a phonetic attempt at Warfield.

1881: RG11/2733/24/16


Edited to add: I think that should be Worfield, Shropshire (Warfield is in Berkshire).

I'm just tracing back through the censuses in which she's married!

Presumably this is her marriage ref:

Edward William EDWARDS
Sarah Ann THOMAS

Sep 1872 Bridgnorth 6a 998

No, his first name is William. As for the marriage, I have no idea when or where. I don't think he has a second name.
He was born in Manchester, but doing a search for 1850ish, gives far too many results to pin one down.

He's Edward W. Edwards, aged 31, in 1881, birthplace Walsall, Staffs
Also Edward W. Edwards, aged 41, in 1891, birthplace Walsall, Staffs.

References as given above.

This is all so confusing. I have his sons' marriage certificate here and his name is down as William.
I know people use their middle names but I thought on official documents they are supposed to use the birth name?
Presumably, I am wrong.
You put me to shame.

Debbie - it may well be that his son having always known him to be William, didn't realise his first name was Edward  Cheesy

Certainly not trying to put anyone to shame! Just trying to help.

People did use middle names, and switch between first and middle, much more in the 19th century than we are familiar with these days.  In giving information to the Registrar the son might well have given the name his father preferred to use or was  accustomed to using.  The more research you do, the more you will see this - sometimes we think our ancestors were deliberately trying to confuse us Wink

The 1871 census confirms the existence of a 16 yr old Sarah Ann THOMAS b Worfield, Shropshire (living in Worfield) - see the marriage ref I gave you above.

1871:  RG10/2745/60/17
