Hi
This was my great x 2 grandfather. He was born in [b]Halifax, Yorkshire in 1825, baptised Jan 1st 1826 at St Johns, Halifax, parents Joseph and Martha. Joseph was an architect or surveyor according to various documents but I think the parents both died before the 1841 census and the children :-
George b 1816, Ann b1819, Samuel b1822, Hiram b 1825, Mary Jane b 1827, Fanny b 1831, Richard b1831 and Olive b 1834 (IGI) were "dispersed". The younger girls maybe to boarding school.
I cannot find Hiram in the 1841 census and am doubtful about any of the other brothers although I have found George in Hull in 1851. I have Hirams marriage certificate to Annie Henrietta Ellerker for 30.12.1848 at Holy Trinity in Hull and have found them both in all the other censuses until he died in the Asylum in Cottingham 13.02.1887. Please can anyone help. I suspect there may well be transcription errors as I have my father as a Gates in his WW2 medals, and Hiram as Iram in the Free BMD deaths, but I have run out of ideas.
Yours hopefully
Jane

HI Jane
There is a death as seen on FMP site for a Richard Oates in 1836 St Johns Halifax for a 5year old boy which would fit with your known info and woudl explain at least his absence in the 1841.

Just to say thanks to all that have contributed already. I will try to chase some of these ideas up over the weekend. I have had my suspicians about the girls and am glad to see others have similar thoughts. I suspect Olive might have married into the Broomheads as there is a Hiram Broomhead Oates on later censuses but as yet have not found the connection. It sems strange that the boys are so difficult to find though. I am not aware of any 1841 census problems in that region. Might any be missing I wonder. Hiram is likely to have been an apprentice builder/bricklayer/plaster I suspect but where?

Hi Heywood
This is true of course. Sorry it has been a long week. Maybe it is one of the other brothers then. I will take that further. Good point, thanks
