Joseph Samuel ALDEN of Bristol
« on: Thursday 18 November 10 04:27 GMT (UK) »
I am finding it difficult getting details on  Joseph Samuel ALDEN of Bristol who was born abt.1850 and died abt.1883.  Some cencus information has him listed as Samuel ALDEN living in Bristol; but I think Joseph is his first name. Would be greatful for any help.

Scott.

Hi Sharon - you are a gem!!

I have been trying for ages to get some reliable information. I had an idea that Susanna Alden may be involved (via the cencuses) but you have confirmed it. I have sent away for a birth certificate as well.
Thank you SO much for your speedy reply; it has really helped  :)

Hi Scott,
Greetings from Sydney :)

Lavinia ALDEN, Christened 26 September 1847, Bristol, Gloucester, England
Parents WILLIAM and SUSANNA

This will save you a few Pounds/Dollars;
Marriage F/S Pilot;
William ALDEN, Father WILLIAM Alden
Susanna EDWARDS, Father Edward WHITE
21 July 1846, St Marys Church, Bristol, Gloucester, England

So looks like Susanna at least was a Widow when she Married William.

1861 Census there is a Edward Edwards age 16 who I would think is Susannas Son from her First Marriage. Gosh, Widowed twice in such a few years.

Looks like William was Married before also.
But where are Lavinia and Joseph Samuel in 1851?
Hopefully somewhere else with Grandparents on either Family side.
Everything else seems to match as Edward is with Susanna, Lavinia and Joseph S in 1861.

THOMAS, 6mths, Son, born Bristol
Susan EDWARDS, 17, Sister in Law
EDWARD, 7, Son in Law

All the Aldens/Edwards born Bristol and environs

Hi Trish

WOW!

I don't know where to start.

First of all, I just can't thank you enough!!

I am fairy new to this (its becoming a real hobby with me now) and will have to sit down and figure out all this GREAT information you have supplied. This Joseph Alden chap is a great-great grandfather and no-one in my family has ever know much about him except that he married my g-g grandmother, but died in his early 30's. I can't waite to pass this on to my dad and co.
I will have to find out about this 'piot' family search thing as well...
Talk to you soon,

Scott.
