Hi again
I have checked the 1851 census index for Derbyshire and there is no Benjamin Wolstencroft.
Sorry

Cheers Bagpuss
Hi I'm REME5355's nephew, the information from the 1841 census is very intersting because I found the same family on familysearch.org in a Pedigree file.
Age 1841
Samuel 71 (1770)
Martha 57 (1784)
Elisha 31 (1810)
Luke 30 (1811)
Elizabeth 27 (1814)
Ann 25 (1816)
Mariann 22 (1819)
Amy 19 (1822)
Maria 16 (1825)
Amorias 13 (1828)
Mariann was shown to have a son called Benjamin born in Tideswell born 1841, I was thinking this maybe Mary from the 1841 census???
Would anyone be able to do a search to find any info on a Mary/Mariann born 1819-1821, this may show a connection to Benjamin.
Thanks

Hi Sunflower
As my uncle says, we may have information back to 1970, but to confirm this we need a link between Mary/Mariann and Benjamin...
I'll try to explain what we know...
My gggrandad Benjamin Wolstencroft was born in 1842 in Tideswell, his father was called John Harrison and Benjamin married Alice Musgrave in St Johns Church, Manchester on 25/05/1862, we have the marriage certificate to prove this.
We're trying to track down any information on my ggggrandma (mary/mariann Wolstencroft???) Benjamin’s mum, born in Tideswell. This is the information we have so far from the 1841 census
Upper Street, Tideswell HO107/187/1
Samuel Wolstencroft 60 Ag. Lab born in county - no
Martha '' 55 yes
Mary '' 20 yes
Maria '' 15 yes
Amorias '' 10 yes
also on same page -
Elisha Wolstencroft 30 Wheelwright yes
Ann '' 25 no
Ann '' 8 yes
Lydia '' 7 yes
Luke '' 5 yes
Samuel '' 2 yes
This all agrees with some information we found on a pedigree file on familysearch.org
Age 1841
Samuel Wolstencroft 71 (1770)
Martha “ 57 (1784)
Elisha “ 31 (1810)
Luke “ 30 (1811)
Elizabet “ 27 (1814)
Ann “ 25 (1816)
Mariann “ 22 (1819)
Amy “ 19 (1822)
Maria “ 16 (1825)
Amorias “ 13 (1828)
http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/PRF/individual_record.asp?recid=290362406&lds=2®ion=-1®ionfriendly=&frompage=99
Mariann was shown to have a son called Benjamin born in Tideswell in 1841, we we're thinking this might be Mary from the 1841 census???
Would you be able to do a search to find any info on a Mary/Mariann Wolstencroft born 1819-1821 in Tideswell in the 1851 census and if there is any other information on the family, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Shane
