Thank you so much for the assistance it is greatly appreciated    On the marriage certificate it states William living at Church Place and Caroline living at Harrow Road.  His birth date I found in a a family reunion book, so unsure how they came about this info, have tried to get hold of relatives to find out about this info but to no avail and it doesn't look like anyone has researched this line.  I think William Blackwell works out to be my Great Great Great Grandfather (?).  How would I go about finding any information in relation to William's parents and possibly siblings?  I have this Blackwell line in my family and my partner is a Blackwell.  So I'm trying to find out if we are related.

We have no idea if the children are Williams and/or Carolines.  Suzard found the children's baptism/birth info.  In regards to the Workhouse birth records would Caroline have had some connection to the workhouse or did they sometimes just go there to have their babies?  Interesting to see the children with the 'Major' surname in the workhouse records.

Thanks again

Thank you so much Merlin I have got the birth certificate you suggested.  The informaiton matches all the information I have so I'm thinking 'we've hit the jackpot'.  Thanks again and your help is greatly appreciated 

I can't believe it!!!!  Wow - this is so amazing.  Thank you so much Judith and crisane.  I really appreciate this information.  I have been hunting for George's parents but was unsuccessful.  Would it be safe to assume from the 1841 census that Frederick was George's brother?  I wonder where the other members of the family were?  Which is the best way for me to go about finding the other member's of the family?  Eg. try and find the baptism of George and see what other records I may find or try and find a marriage for George's parents?  Also would I have to contact the local family history society/centre to see if there is a baptism record for George Blackwell?  Please advise or direct me to find this information.  You have helped me so much, I don't expect you to keep providing records/information for me, I really appreciate all the assistance and information you have given me.  I will have to let this information sink in over the next day or two as it is getting rather late at night here.  Thanks again - Ness

Thank you for the burial and death information Judith.  This information is fantastic.

Wow, thanks for all the information.  Exactly what I have been looking for    I had no idea they would have come from Wales.  I was looking at England.  In regards to 1881 the Blackwell family were in Canada as I found the census information the same as Crisane had found.  George must of been doing some labouring work in Canada.  Have contacted the church over in Canada to see if they have information on George, so will be interesting if they find anything in their archives.  I found some information on a person's family tree page with the same information.  They noted that William James Blackwell had gone to Australia.  Ros you must be correct with the death information.  Thanks judb for the burial info.  Going through my info and have Harriet's maiden name as Harwood but wasn't 100% sure.  It seems to fit in with the other information I have.  Will have to verify with a certificate.  In regards to an Eva Alice Beecham maybe that is a possible 3rd wife??  From memory there was a death notice on Trove for his 2nd wife.  Which Ros, you kindly posted the link.  Thanks Dundee and Crisane.  Thanks for the Wales info.  Will try to have a search myself on ancestry, if for some reason I can not find it I might message you if that is ok.  This is becoming so interesting and thank you to everyone for helping place the pieces into my puzzle.
