Hartshorn family
« on: Friday 20 March 15 16:40 GMT (UK) »
William  HARTSHORN married Sarah Ann JONES in December 1864 at Atcham.
I would be grateful if anyone could point me in the direction of his family, parents, siblings, Grand parents etc.,
Thank you.

If you have them on the 1871 Census, can you please advise his age and PoB ?

Added: do you know if they had sons Elijah & Harry by 1871 ?

If so, they are in Hookagate, Brace Meole, Shrewsbury, Shropshire in 1871.

Sarah Ann says she is from Pontesbury ( a place within the Atcham Regn District) born c1845.

William, born c1839 is from Birmingham - he is a Coal Miner.

Grandmother Elizabeth c1797 is present. She was born in Hookagate (Brace Meol), Salop.

If this sounds correct, we can go back to an earlier census to find more.

Unfortunately I don't have this, just the marriage certificate for December 1864 at Saint Chad, Shrewsbury. He was a coal miner and had a connection to a place called Hookagate, Brace Meole (!)

Good - Hookagate is correct - see above synopsis of the 1871 in my original Posting ...

Unfortunately, the copy I have is very poor and I cannot read the details.
I am not sure how to find your original posting (Lostris) Can you tell me how to get to it please.

just look at my original response to your post - ie scroll down from the top of these messages.

In 1861, There is a William Hartshorn in Pontesbury, a bit younger now, but a Coal Miner, however he says he was born in Pontesbury and is married to a Mary and has 2 young daughters - really do need his Fathers name I think ...

This is prob the Marriage to the Mary seen in the 1861 Census in Pontesbury - sadly, the transcription is missing a female name - hers !


Marriages Sep 1856   

HARTSHORN  William    Atcham  6a 973   
JONES  Martha     Atcham  6a 973   
Jordan  Edward     Atcham  6a 973


Ah - wait - this chap is on the 1871 in Church Pulverbatch, Atcham - so we can eliminate him - sorry, false alarm - back to check 1861 for our c1839 man !

Post a snip of it here and we'll have a go at reading it then.

I can't do that as I think I would need to use a scanner and the one I had doesn't work now.
Do you have the names and dates of birth for the two daughters of William from Pontesbury?
