I hope I am not getting ahead of myself and totally confusing the person(s) helping me. I found this page amongst my many papers and wondered if someone could make a connection for me?
Joseph Dorricott (1839) - born in Oakengates, Shropshire
Wife Elizabeth Leese (1840) Born in Lilleshall, Shropshire
They were married August 24, 1863 in Holy Trinity,Wrockwardine
One child Mary. Were there other children?
The connection to all this is through my Humpherson Line
Kind regards,

Have you checked the 1871 and 1881 censuses for the family? No children in 1871
http://www.rootschat.com/links/01egx/
If there are no other children shown - they may have had children who died between censuses so you can use GRO online to search for Dorricott births with mmn Leese

One child Mary.
So Mary was their niece - not their daughter
-
In 1891, she is Mary Leece, niece, age 4.
In 1901, she is Mary Dorricott, daughter, age 15?

Hi Carole W.
I am totally confused and I believe the problem is with Elizabeth Leese. Regarding Elizabeth the information was sent to me and he has recently passed on. He told me we were related through the Humpherson line, but it is the Leese line. Could I prevail upon your good nature to make a fresh start.
My starting point is:Joseph Doody (1786) wife Mary Doddicott (1769)
John (1790); Joseph (1796); Sarah (1798)
Joseph (1796) wife Ann (unknown) (both born in Donnington Wood)
Children: John (1823); Mary (1824); Joseph (1828); William (1830); James (1833); Elizabeth (1838); Emma (1840)
I will leave this with you and thank you again
Regards,
Doris Baudoux

So this 1841 census seems to fit for the family:-
Joseph Doody 40 occ Engineer
Ann 40
John 15 occ Coal Miner
Joseph 13 occ Stone Miner
Wiliam 11
James 7
Mary 17
Anne 5
Elizth 3
Emma 1
Residing at Waxhill Barracks, Lilleshall

Hi Keyboard86
I certainly appreciate your help. and thank you for the information re Joseph Doody on the 1841 Census. I tried to find the Census (with no luck). I went through all the male Doodys' I have. only to find that only the first name of their spouse is shown. I went onto Family Search and this Site showed only first name of spouse. Is this information, that is impossible to find?
I will look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards,
Doris Baudoux

Hi again, the 1841 census is on Family Search, look for Emma Doody b 1840/ 1
Shropshire shows baptism and census just below that.
It is the marriage for Joseph & Ann/e ( possibly Pritchard) I cannot at present locate?
