[Chris Chapman]

I am looking for Abraham Spellman and family, he was born in approx. 1864 in Bilston Staffs.

• His father Thomas Spellman (died before 1881)
  
• His mother Elizabeth Spellman nee? Born approx. 1833 Bilston, Staffordshire who may have married a William Hanley following the death of Thomas Spellman.
  
• His brother George Spellman born approx. 1867 Darlaston, Staffordshire
  

I would also be interested in finding Abraham Spellman and family in the 1891 census

Thank you so much in advance for you hard work

You are a wonder Tricia.  Thanks once again for the hard and amazingly fast work.

I wonder if you would mind me being cheeky and seeing if you could have a look at the 1861 census and seeing if there is a family of Thomas and Elizabeth Spellman with their sons Thomas and John?  (see the data of the 1871 census)


Hope you don't think i am being too greedy

Thank you so much, that pretty much completes that family.  I hope it wasn't too much trouble looking for that last Census
