Staffordshire / William York in Coseley
« on: Sunday 20 February 22 15:26 GMT (UK)  »
I have a memory of my Grandfather George Edward Jones in a picture standing by the side of a Brake with 3 horses and telling me that he took the brake to Bridgnorth and back from Sedgley / Coseley, 3 horses were taken as when they came back up the Ermitage hill (is that the correct spelling) out of Bridgnorth the passengers had to walk and they needed 3 horses to pull the Brake, he lived at 37 Tunnel Street in Coseley with his uncle William York in 1901 where William is show as being a Brake proprietor, in the 1911 census George Edward Jones was married but William York was now living at 39 Tunnel St Coseley as a Haulier, I have been looking for more details for Williams business and a copy of the elusive photograph but apart from confirming details as above I have not progressed, any ideas Guy's

I am trying to find some information regarding a Mary Wardle born 1904 in Sunderland, her father was a John William Wardle born 31/08/1871 in Sunderland and her mother was a Leonora Beeson born 24/10/1877 also in Sunderland, Mary had a sister Leonora a brother Norman and a 2nd brother Frederick, I have them and the families but struggling with Mary I think she may have married a Harold G or J Johnson in Sunderland in 1899 but all else eludes me, any help appreciated..

Staffordshire / Elizabeth Dunford or is it Dukes
« on: Friday 24 December 21 14:46 GMT (UK)  »
I have a George Guest who on 28/03/1799 married at St Benedicts in Wombourne Staffs, either an Elizabeth Dukes or Elizabeth Dunford different websites have either name and after looking at a copy of the register I am not sure which it is but have not been able to find other details to confirm the lady's details, I have found an Elizabeth Dukes but she is born in Yoxall which is quite a way from Wombourne and I have always thought ?? that brides tend to marry in there local parish which should make this Elizabeth a local girl, any thoughts appreciated..

Shropshire / price or burton in Clee St Margaret
« on: Tuesday 07 December 21 13:37 GMT (UK)  »
Thomas Edwards born in Abdon a parish adjacent to Clee St Margaret, born in 1815 baptised 24/04/1815 at St Margarets Clee St Margaret is my Great Great Grandfather he married in January 1839 registered in Ludlow but may have taken place in Clee St Margaret a Mary Price ? I query it because I cannot find her and confirm it, I have the 1841 / 1851 / 1861 / 1871 / 1881 / census records showing the family living at Hillside and Cockshutford then in 1891 Thomas is a widow which coincides with Mary's death on 17/03/1886 this is confirmed by the family gravestone which includes Thomas who dies in Nov 1903 and son Richard who dies Aug 1876, all records show that both Thomas and Mary are from Clee St Margaret, and yet I have currently failed to find her and her family, which leads me to suspect she may not be Mary Price, there is a Mary Sargeant who also gets married and is registered in Ludlow in Feb 1839 her father is a Burton which suggests she could have been married before and may explain the fact that she is 3 years older than thomas, struggling to find evidence to confirm either Mary Price or Mary Burton living in Clee St Margaret, and suggestions please..
