1871 census look up please Ovenden
« on: Sunday 04 October 09 07:32 UTC (UK) »

I have James Midgley age 53 living with wife Tabatha on  the 1881 census at Pharoah Lane. Farmer 11 acres.
I would be grateful to anyone who would be able to find James on the  1871 and earlier census to confirm who his parents were.]

Many thanks,
Sandra

Hi maidmarion - I agree it's irritating - what has happened to the red warning?  Sad

Hi Sandra
It looks as if Tabitha might have been his second wife if this is the right James Midgley (and I suspect that it is):
1851 census has
HO107/2301/145/22
Yorks Ovenden
Address Green Royd
Midgeley
James, 36, Stone Cutter, Ovenden
Sarah, wife, 32
Thomas, son, 11
Mary Ann, daur, 5
Sarah, daur, 2
James, son, 6 mths
All born Ovenden

Regards

Nell

(going out now so no time to look in the 1841 at the moment but will do so later if no one else has done so in the mean time)

Hi everyone,

I was wondering about this as an alternative to Nell's suggestion for
the 1851, the children are Elizabeth and Sarah.

1851 census:
HO107/2301, Folio 383, Page 20

Yorkshire, Ovenden
Bradshaw Lane

James Midgley, h. mar, 23, Farm Labourer, b.
Salley, wife, 24, Wool Comber
Sarah, dau, 2
Elizabeth, dau, 9 mths

All born in Ovenden.

Kind regards,

Pels

Sorry from me too !!

The red warning has been taken away as a temporary measure, Trystan is trying to keep RootsChat running smoothly until he can fix things.

Hi sandra bills Smiley
It looks as though buying this marriage cert would be the way to go, as there are a couple of James Midgleys in 1841 I'm afraid Huh

It looks possible that James married Tabitha in the same quarter that Sally died ?

Death, Mar qtr 1859
