Kia ora
I am looking for the 1841 etc census for these people. I am not sure that what I have is in fact correct and whether in fact they had only one child. Any help appreciated.
Best wishes

I thought he was an ag labourer as I had found that on what I thought was the '51 census for them which clearly isn't correct.
I still can't find them on any of the census on Genes Reunited which is the site I pay for. Nor on Freecen.

I can’t see Richard and Ann being the parents of all here, but grandparents maybe.

Wonder if this is him on the 1841 with wife’s name mistranscribed?

No I do not think that 1841 is a mistranscription. Emmanuel seems to have married twice
1st marriage to Harriet Mansell 23 August 1835 in Eyton upon the Weald Moors (this parish is adjacent to Wellington).
(There is a burial showing in Wellington Sept 13 1843 for a Harriot Jones age 26.Address given as Street Lane).
2nd marriage 28 July 1844 All Saints, Wellington Emmanuel Jones ,widower,tailor-residence Chapel Place Father Richard Jones, nailor to Hannah Duckitt spinster,Walker Street, Father John Duckitt, butcher.

Hi
I do have all that information, yes Emmanuel was married twice. It is not the Dark street family.
It is Richard who I am trying to find the census details of. He lived in New Street and was a nailor.
Many thanks
Bronwen
-
I'm pretty sure the Dark St family in 1841 is yours, as it looks like Richard snr is a nailor.
-
I am not sure why you think it is the Dark st family.
I am looking for the family of Emmanuel Jones - is there an Emmanuel in the Dark st family?

Have to say that I agree with Maddy that the Dark Street family is likely to be the correct one.
Given that Emmanuel married his first wife in 1834 it is not surprising that in the 1841 census he is recorded with his wife and children, living in Cottage Row, Wellington.

I know modern Wellington well, having lived in the area for a long time. I will endeavour to establish exactly where Cottage Row and Dark Street were and will get back to you . The names are no longer used. Cottage Row must have been in Central Wellington as the 1841 census entries are sandwiched between those of Church Street and Walker Street. Dark Street in the 1841 census follows on from New Street.

Thanks William - if you are correct I need to find an Emmanuel in that family.
This is Emmanuel's details - I do have all the information about his two marriages and their children.
Harriet died in 1843. I haven't managed to find Emmanuel's death.

I haven't managed to find Emmanuel's death.
As wife Hannah is widowed in the 1881 census, I imagine this is probably Emmanuel's death:
Emanuel JONES (age 78) Mar qtr 1880 Wellington 6a/611
I realise the age is different, however it could be a transcription error. I cannot see another Emmanuel JONES that would be this age in Wellington at the time. I guess the death cert would clear it up, especially if the informant was someone you could identify. :-\
-
Thanks for that if it is March quarter this means Jan to March is that what you mean.
Regards Bronwen
-
Hi Bronwen, sorry for my tardy reply. Yes, the death was registered in the March quarter - so Jan, Feb or March. Here's a good explanation :)

Many thanks.

Hi
Just seen this thread.
Re Emanuel's death: there is a burial on 14th July 1880 Donnington Wood. No age or other information given.

The burial doesn't fit with Maddy's civil death registration find. The only other possibility for the burial in Donnington is of a 3 year old, registered Newport, Q3, 1880 (July-Sept).
-
At that time Donnngton Wood was a chapelry in Lilleshall Parish and part of Newport RD.
I have spent some time in Wellington Library looking at old maps and directories of Wellington. I have now established that Cottage Row was in modern day Market Street (previously called Butcher's Lane).
Dark Street is a bit of mystery. The only reference I have been able to find is in the 1841 census. I have not located it on any town plans of the time or found it named in any directories. It is worth saying that New Street, which today is Wellington's main shopping street, was much longer at the time of the 1841 census, including modern day High Street and extending as far as the junction with King Street.
The description of the ED in which Dark Street is showing in 1841 has this; " All that part of the parish of Wellington comprising the North side of New Street from the King's Head to Mr Garbutt's House including the Banyards and all the Courts and Rows adjoining".
Although I have yet to pinpoint Dark Street exactly on a map I am still very much of the opinion that the 1841 Richard Jones in Dark Street is yours.

Many thanks to all of you for the latest information especially looking at the library at old maps etc.. I am not convinced that the Dark St family is Emmanuels because there doesn't seem to a birth of an Emmanuel in that family and it is his line that is a part of mine. What I cannot understand is why I cannot find them on the various census? The occupation tailor / nailor is problematic and I wonder whether I have transcribed it correctly for Emmanuel. I think it is tailor, and she was a bag mender, I assume these are cloth or felted bags?
best wishes
