Hello,
I am currently researching a family consisting of Samuel Jordan and Elizabeth Talbot (Turbot). I can 100% confirm their names from two of their children’s marriages.
I have come across various trees on the internet that seem to include this particular family and I have contacted owners but have been unsuccessful in getting any answers. I would appear that most have just added the line to their own trees. I cannot do that.
What I am looking for is;
Who are Samuel & Elizabeth’s parents.
From the 1851 census I do believe this is the correct pair living with Elizabeth’s parents. George & Hannah Talbot. I would like to find out Hannah’ s maiden name and who Samuel’s parent are.
Confirmation of Samuel & Elizabeth’s marriage and also confirmation of all of their children.
The census documents that everyone else seems to be adding contains;
1851 – Segley, Wolverhampton, Ettingshall.
Samuel is 23 and Elizabeth is 24. (Again, I believe this is the correct couple as they are living with George & Hannah Talbot). It gives birth places of Stafford Princes End for Samuel and Brierly Hill for Elizabeth.
No children
1861 – Bilston Wolverhampton.
Samuel is 30 and Elizabeth is 22. It gives birth places of Stafford Bilston for Samuel and Brierly Hill for Elizabeth.
5 children
William – 9
River – 7
Samuel – 5
Richard – 3
Thomas - 1
1871 – West Bromwich, Wednesbury (?)
Samuel is 41 and Elizabeth is 38. It gives birth place of Bilston for both.
8 children
William – 18
River – 10 (interesting compared to 1861)
Samuel – 15
Richard – 14
Thomas – 12
Mary – 7
George Edward – 4
Elizabeth - 2
From the census information, as you can see, I cannot narrow down a birth date for Samuel or Elizabeth, but I do think they are all one in the same family.
Any confirmation, information and general help with this family would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Captain Jack
