Hi everyone, my first try at this so please be gentle with me.
my gggf Samuel Lambsdale 50 on 1841 and 59 on 1851 says he's born in . Wolverhampton
but no trace so far at wolves archives etc.
any help would be great.
his 'wife' was a Charlotte Devonport christened in Kinver but no marriage details located.
Cheers robsdad

Hi robsdad. welcome to rootschat 
Do you know about freebmd? It's a website where you can lookup bdms- gives you the basic info and when you put this with the census you can start to get some bearings on people. This sort of search always needs proper cross checking but it is a site worth knowing about for your future hunts.
The events listed on the site start in 1837 and the transcriptions are up to c. 1920 now.

Hi Donna
Seems Sam had families with a Mary, Martha & Charlotte
between 1813 and 1850ish according to St Peter's Reg. etc
Thanks for your efforts, I'm now trying to locate Sam's birth c1792
with little sucess so far.
Cheers

Hi both
Yes the son of Elias & Elizabeth is almost certainly the one from his age on 1841
they married 1789 St. Peter's
Samuel seems to have had three families / marriages as children by all wives are with
him and Charlotte on 1841
Thanks for your input

Hi Just joined Rootschat and found this discussion which aroused my interest because my GGGF and GGGGF were both Samuel Lamsdales. From what I can gather from the information in the replies to your message, my own research and following up some of the helpful links folks have given I think that there were at least 6 or 7 of them in the early 19th C so trying to unpick one from the other is hard. I found it useful to write it all down and wondered if you would be interested in my thoughts. I think we have the following family groups at least (but happy to be corrected about any of the names and dates)
Samuel and Mary who had children from about 1813-1818 (Elizabeth 1813, Samuel 1814, Elias 1818)
Samuel and Martha who had children from about 1820 -1832 (Martha 1820, Ann 1823, Samuel 1825 (d. 1826), Emily 1827, Louisa 1829, Samuel 1832 (who I think is my ancestor, d 1892)),
Samuel and Charlotte who had children from about 1836 - 1847 (George 1836, William Henry 1841 and Charlotte 1847).
Its possible that these three entries are the same Samuel, certainly the ages fit: one of your respondents found a record of death of Samuel of 18/3/1855 aged 63. So he would have been born about 1792. So, assuming that this is the same Samuel (but it may not be of course), it is possible that he (a) married Mary, started having children with her in 1813 aged about 21 then (b) married Martha aged about 27/28 in around 1819 then went on to (c) marry Charlotte about age 43 (your respondent said that when he married Charlotte in 1835 he was a widower which supports the theory of a second marriage).
However, one of your correspondents found a marriage entry of Samuel and Martha of 1814 which suggests that we have two Samuels here, the Samuel who married Mary and the Samuel who married Martha and then Charlotte. I would really like to find out which is true!
However, just for good measure there are records of the following marriages of other Samuel Lamsdale
Samuel and Jane Williams 23/11/1838
Samuel and Mary Walker 1/8/1843
Samuel and Elizabeth Dudlick 18/3/1849
Samuel and Ann Hickman 22/5/1854 (my ancestor)
So it is possible that we share a common ancestor. At the time of Samuel and Anns marriage in 1854, Samuel Senior was living in Brick Street as a Locksmith
If you find out anything more then I would be interested to hear
