Oakden family of Gloucester need some help
« on: Monday 14 January 08 18:48 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,

 I have a Roger Oakden  on census from 1841-1861 but can't find him after this. The only likely death record I can find is for 1873 in Gloucester, Gloucestershire aged 87 but this is confusing as he's older than on census and can't be found on the 1871 census.

In 1841 he is living 18 Victoria st, St Michael, Gloucestershire age 45

In 1851 he is living 1 Bear land, St Nicholas, Gloucester age 58

In 1861 he is living 21 Westgate st, St Nicholas, Gloucester age 70

He was born Stanton, Staffordshire and wife Charlotte was with him on above census her death seems to have been in 1865 in Gloucester.

I know of 4 children of Roger and Charlotte

Edwin b. abt 1828 Stourport, Worcestershire
Edith  b. abt 1832 Stourport  Worcestershire
Fanny b. abt 1835 Stourport, Worcestershire
Mary Ann b. abt 1838 Stourport, Worcestershire

I know that Edith married Duncan Stuart (b. Scotland) who was a prison governer in Norfolk which is where they moved to  but know nothing of the rest of Roger's children.
If anyone  can shed any more light on this family for me that would be wonderful.

Thanks for reading

Anjo.

Hi Tazzie,


   wow your quick this evening. Yeah I saw that too but not sure about it as I don't know where the smith comes from. His mother was a Harrison before marriage and not sure of her parents. Poss parents for Roger weren't smiths...unless I have that wrong. Plus I have only been able to find him on the 1841 census with parens age 13 and nothing after that.

 But thanks a million for trying for me I really appreciate it.

All the best Angela.
