Shropshire Lookup Requests / 1851 and 1861 census lookup for HAINES in Pontesbury
« on: Tuesday 08 March 05 11:41 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for a George Haines b c1831-9 in Clunbury, Shropshire (listed as 1839 in 1871 census and 1831 in 1881 census. In 1871 he was living in Pontesbury district 4 as a servant aged 32 and single. In the 1881 census he was living in Pontesbury district 3 (Pontesford) married to Sarah (Trow) with 4 children under the age of 10.

I am trying to trace the previous generation of Haines (also found as Hains and Haynes depending on where you look!) and see if George had any brothers and sisters.

thanks

Shropshire Lookup Requests / 1851 and 1861 census lookup for MORRIS in Alberbury or Pontesbury

I am looking for a Thomas Morris born c1844 in Alberbury (according to 1871 census) or Pontesbury (according to 1881 census). In 1871 he was living with his wife Hannah (possibly Lealand) in Habberley District 2 as a lead miner with 3 children under the age of 10. In 1881 he was living at Malehurst, Pontesbury District 1 with 6 children as a railway platelayer.

I think that he and Hannah were married in 1867 so he would be single in 1851 and 1861. I am trying to trace the previous generation of Morris's and see if he had any brothers and sisters. If possible it would also be nice to trace Hannah's family - she was born in Weston, Shropshire around 1845.

thanks

Alex
