1851 Census Look Up - Wellington Heath, Bloxwich

[Frenchy]

Hi all,

Can someone please look in the 1851 census for any WOOTTONs in Wellington Heath, Bloxwich especially at house number 10.

Many thanks,

Les

Hi Les,

There are lots of Woottens in the  Bloxwich area. If you can give some details on the family you are looking for - first names etc - it will be much easier to find them.

Kind Regards
Darcy

Hi Darcy,

Thanks for your reply. The reason I asked for a search at Wellington Heath is because I found this Wootton family living at Wellington Heath in both the 1841 and 1861 censuses. I've found a family in the 1851 census living at Elmore Green, Bloxwich which I believe is the same one but I'm not certain and just want to check. It is either not the right family or they moved back to Wellington Heath after Elmore Green.

Here are all the details:

1841 Census
Wellington Heath, Foreign of Walsall.
WOOTTON George. 25. tack maker. Yes (born in Staffs).
WOOTTON Harriet. 25. Yes.
WOOTTON Patience. 10. Yes.
WOOTTON Jane. 5. Yes.
WOOTTON George 4. Yes.
WOOTTON Harry. 15mths. Yes.
(Enoch Wootton has been found at Mead? Lane, Bloxwich)

1851 Census
Elmore Green, Bloxwich.
WOOTTON Harriet. head. marr. 42. tack manufacturer. Born Bloxwich.
WOOTTON Jane. dau. unm. 17. servant. Born Bloxwich.
WOOTTON Enoch. son. unm 21. awl blade maker. Born Bloxwich.
WOOTTON Chas. son. unm. 19. tack maker. Born Bloxwich.
WOOTTON Henry. son. 6. Born Bloxwich.
SOMERFIELD Willm. Relation. Unm 25. awl blade maker. Born Bloxwich.
KENDRICK Chas. Relation. Unm. 14. tack maker. born St Luke, Middlesex
(Patience married in 1850 and is therefore most likely to be living with her husband elsewhere)

1861 Census
Wellington Heath, Bloxwich
George Wootton Head Marr 50 Ag Lab Staffs Bloxwich
Harriett Wootton Wife Marr 48 Staffs Bloxwich

If you could find any other similar families then that would be great.

Kind Regards,
Les

Hi Les,

I think that has to be the family in 1851. I can see another Harriet but husband and children are totally different.

Have you found George as a lodger with another Wootton family in 1851? The image is really hard to read so didn't want to struggle through it if you already have the details. There is another Wootton family living next door as well.

I think this is Patience -

Thanks Darcy. That's brilliant  That's definitely Patience and her family.

Is it ok if I have the details of George with the other Wootton family in the 1851 census. Someone already gave me some details from this census but found it hard to read a lot of the information.

Charles seems to be missing in the 1841 census (would be about 9 years old) and also George from the 1851 census (would be about 15 years old). Is it ok if you search for them for me?

Many thanks.

Les

I'll have a look for you. Les.

No Annie,

I'm just about to post the info now. I think the images have been water damaged as they are very difficult to read. I have been trying to sort them out for ages...

Darcy.

Hi Les,

here is the info on George. The image is really dark and hard to read. The head of the house is definitely Hyla Wootton - although he appears on various censuses as Ella, Oller and his son is Oiler in 1861. This is the best I can do
