Anyone wishing for free lookups in 1861 census for Netherton, Halesowen, Lye, Cradley, Quarry Bank, Amblecote, Oldswinford, Kingswinford, Brierley Hill and part of Quinton should have a look at the following link:
http://www.griffs4bears.co.uk/census/scripts/search61.html
Also partial 1901 census for Dudley,Halesowen,Oldbury,Rowley Regis,West Bromwich & Wolverhampton:
http://uk-transcriptions.accessgenealogy.com/Worcs..htm
At the same link you can also find partial bmd for Netherton, Dudley, Haleowen, Cradley Heath, Romsley, Blackheath and Kidderminster churches.
These have certainly aided me quite a few times in my ancestor hunts.

It's great isn't it?
-
I might just have to take you up on that! ;)
Careful or I can bombard you with them ::)
But then again why ruin a good thing....
Geoff.
-
No problem but since I am a slow typist it would help if you paste in the details you have and I can add the rest. Save me typing the names at least!
-
That would be REALLY great!! :o
I'll make a list tomorrow as it's getting a bit late and you can do them (or not!) at your leisure. Any help is ALWAYS appreciated. ;D
Are you restricted to Worcs? My relations love to span the borders into Staffordshire/Shropshire which usually wastes loads of time when I ask any questions and is infuriating for both me and my angelic helper >:(
TA very much like,
Geoff.

Hi Gardener,
I have attached a text file of my Yeomans families from Worcester with refernces. They all stem from a glass worker from Chance and Hunts called Joseph Yeomans from the 1881 census. He was born ~1834 in Quinton or Oldbury. As you will be able to see I have got no further back in time, but have managed to come forward again quite well. :)
There are still a few gaps that need looking into as I don't have access to either 1891 or 1901.
Of course, most important of all is go further backwards to 1861.
I don't think they appear in the 1871 census as they may have have been in America, but it might be worth a quick look. ???
Please don't kill yourself as I appreciate there are many others out there who also need help. ;)
Thanks very much,
Geoff.

(William's occupation is given as " which probably indicates the same as his father's, but elsewhere the do is used for ditto so I'm not entirely sure).
I'll have a go at finding them in 1861 tonight or on the weekend. Bye!

Imagine living at Rood End! Must have been fun ordering a pizza ;D
There was also a family with Joseph (29) and Harriet (31) Yeomans plus children (6 of them) at RG9-21021/10. This family is on the 1881 census too. Don't know if they are related.
Forgot to say that above entries are from Staff census even though Oldbury is in Worcs. I checked the 1851 Worc census (name indexed :)) and Joshua is not there so I presume you need to look in the Staff one for that too and I don't have that I am afraid.
-
Gardener, :D
Was away this weekend. You STAR. 8)
Pizza for all at Rood End! What a great name! :D
Thanks to what you have given me, I have definitely linked to William in the American 1880 census and confirmed my suspected American relations HOORAY! ;D
Thanks very much,
Geoff.

This might just help me with one of my brick walls! I just tried the 1861 search and found this entry:

The "Felton" was queried because the bar of the "t" goes through the "l" too, so it could be a "t". And the "e" could be a "u". If the names fit otherwise you should be OK though.
-
That matches very well . . . definitely Felton. The key new data is the birth of Selina in Horsehay. I should now be able to track them back through the census. My brickwall is with William's Father, John. There are about 8 possibles for him and I need to find him in the census to get back further.
Thanks very much!

Hi,
I am fairly new to this site and have just come accross your posting. The site you mention for 1861 lookup is pretty good I found it some time back... but not very informative.
I have four family groups from this site would you be able to fill in the missing data for me.
I would be very grateful
Thanks Williams
-
Hi there. Shouldn't be a problem. Could you copy and past each entry and then I'll look them up. It is nice to get the extra info but it would have doubled the work to included them on that site.
-
Hi
Thanks every so much really appreciate your time not sure which is the best way for you so I have attached the list which has been saved as notepad
Thanks again

Thankyou very much for this Gardener, might be the Thomas I'm looking for.
1871 mine was 26, born Stourbridge Worcs. Do you think this is the right one?
-
No I don't think it is likely. I'll pm you to discuss it better.
