Hi,

I've found a possible for your Selina Annie and William om the 1901 census.  Selina is using her middle name (which wasn't unusual) and her age is slightly out - but think she was trying to look older than she was due to hubby's age 

6 Stourbridge Road, Dudley

William Jones, 64yrs House Painter born Cheltenham
Annie Jones, 29yrs born Wombourne, Staffs
George Jones, 10yrs (was he from a previous marriage of Williams?)
Elsie Jones, 2yrs

Let me know what you think

William seemed to like his ladies young.  I've found him on the 1891 census with wife Eliza.  He is 54 and she is 37!

Hope I'm on the right track here

wow wow wow all this info since I logged on yesterday many many thanks all.Funny how things work out. My Ruth Corns moved with her husband to Newark Notts for work and 60 years later my husband and I moved to Albrighton also for work.....back "home" now though.
Yes Helen, William was a bit of a dirty old man all these young girls, maybe he was very dishy or well off!! Many thanks for finding them I think it becomes a case of not being able to see the wood for the trees after so long.

Hi Larkspur - found you at last.  Now all I need to do is read up on our relatives!

[rumpuscat]

Hi, I'm Larkspur's cousin.

The Samuel Corns who married Elizabeth Bruce had a daughter, Jane, b1754.  She married Edward Cartwright (who was probably a cousin) and had a daughter, Jane, b1779.  This Jane married William Stevens, and their daughter Elinor married Henry Corns (1801 - 1876).  Their son Joseph is my and Larkspur's 2xgt grandpa.

Hello, any of you Corns/Cornes researchers still about? My ancestor is Elizabeth Cornes ch.28 July 1753 Penn who married Joseph Higgs in 1774 and moved to Trysull

I think she is daughter of John Corns 1728 Wombourne and Mary?, so grand daughter of John Corns and Rachel. My tree is on tribal pages, let me know if anyone wants to share info thanks.

Elizabeth siblings as follows -
John Cornes 1755
Thomas Cornes 1755
Ann Cornes 1758
Rachel Cornes 1760
Mary Cornes 1762
Richard Cornes 1764
Joseph Cornes 1766
Esther Cornes 1768
Hannah Cornes 1770 all christened Penn, Staffs.
