Thanks for the information. It answers some questions, but can you tell me how to find out who Samuel Wright's  parents are?

[Hi Nicky,

This sounds like the Thomas Bull I am looking for. My grandmother never mentioned her family to us and I was going on information I gathered from snippets here and there.

The Samuel Wright family is the correct one I think. I have nothing on who his Parents would be, though. He must have been very young when Sophia and him were married.

Thanks so much for you help.

Hi
I have looked through the 1901 census and cannot find Thomas Bull.

I then went back to 1891 and found this who is very likely Lydia, bear in mind in 1901 there is a Sophia Wright living with her.

1891 census

Lydia A Wright, servant , age 17, general servant domestic born Northants Bugbrook.

She was servant to a family called Reynolds in Padbury.

RG12/1155
ed 8 folio 94 page 8
civil parish of Padbury

and here is the 1881 census for Lydia

Sophia Wright, widow, age 34, widow of labourer at iron furnace born Northants Bugbrooke
Caroline E, daughter, age 11, domestic servant born Bugbrooke
George, son, age 10, scholar born Bugbrooke
Lydia A,daughter, age 7, scholar born Bugbrooke
Emily, daughter, age 4 born Bugbrooke
Anne, daughter, age 1 born Bugbrooke

RG11/1555
ed 1 folio 11 page 16
civil parish of Bugbrooke

and this would be the1871 census for Lydias family

Samuel Wright, age 20, ag lab born Northants Lower Heyford
Sophia,wife, age 26, lace maker, born Northants Bugbrooke
Caroline E, daughter, age 1 born Bugbrooke
George, son,age 3 weeks born Bugbrooke

RG10/1489
ed 1 folio 9 page 11
civil parish of Bugbrooke

I looked on the 1891 for Thomas Bull and there is an 18 year old born Padbury. If you think this maybe your Thomas let me know and I can post the census info,his parents are listed as Edwin and Hannah.

I am looking for information on my ggrandfather Alfred Biddlecombe's family in Romsey.      Alfred was born around 1836 in Romsey and his parents were James Biddlecombe and Ann. James was born around 1802 and I do not have a surname for Ann. I believe that Jame's parents were David Biddlecombe and Ann Budden.
Any help would be appreciated.

I am interested in finding information on my gg grandfather, Samel Wright. I know he died prior to the 1881 census as on the 1881 census his wife is shown as a widow of labourer at Iron Furnance. He would have been in his 30's and his wife's name was Sophia.
