Phoebe or Phebe Jones 1871 Census?
« on: Sunday 11 December 16 16:28 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

I am trying to find Phoebe Jones in the 1871 census without any luck.  She was in the 1881 census with her three daughters, Ann, Emma and Eliza Jones, at 82 High Street Bloxwich, Staffordshire.  Phoebe was born in Wolverhampton around 1839.  Her three daughters were born in Bloxwich.  The census returns I have seen list her as widowed but I'm not sure if she was ever married.  I also found her in the 1891 census living with her married daughter, Ann Goodwin and then in the 1901 with daughter Emma Thompson.  As you can imagine, there are different spellings of Phoebe which adds to the confusion.  Any help would be appreciated!

Have you tried using the 1871 on FS as that searches phonetically

Wonder if this could be the family? -

Charles Briam Head 42 b.Bloxwich, Staffordshire
James Briam Son 17 b. Newtown, Staffordshire   
Jane   Briam Dau 12 b. Newtown, Staffordshire
Elen   Briam Dau 10 b. Newtown, Staffordshire
Ann Jones Dau 3 b. Bloxwich, Staffordshire
Emma Jones Dau 6 b.Bloxwich, Staffordshire
Mary Ann   Jones Dau 4 b. Bloxwich, Staffordshire
John Jones Boarder unm19 b. Wolverhampton, Staffordshire
Pheobe Jones unm Boarder 27 b. Wolverhampton, Staffordshire

RG10 Piece 2959 Folio 101 Page 3

The ages are slightly out but names and pob are very similar to the 1881, so perhaps worth a look.

hi
Just to add that Ann's marriage 25.2.1889 at St Peter's Walsall gives her father as Charles Jones miner dec.
That would probably fit with the head of the household in 1871 Charles Briam.
He died as Charles Bryan June 1878 Walsall age 50
