1841 & 51 Census - George Williams
« on: Monday 26 June 06 23:17 BST (UK) »
Hello All

Looking for g.g.gdad George Williams b1834 Hanley Castle, Labourer, according to the 1881 census.

I know he married Hannah Oliver in 1859 in West Bromwich but would like to know when he made the move from Worcestershire to Staffordshire.  Would like to know his parents and siblings.

Any info appreciated, thankyou.

Regards, Jamys

Hello Steve

Many thanks for that.

1841 family could be them, George's age is about right. 

1851 if this is my George, then maybe James is a cousin.

Is it possible to see how many Williams families there are in Hanley Castle in 41 & 51?

Regards, Jamys

Hi Jamys

In 1851 it looks like there are 3 families living in Hanley Castle:

Head: Thomas William born about 1797
Wife:   Eliza Williams born about 1797
Daug: Jane Williams born about 1837


Head: Mary Williams born about 1799
Son:   James Williams born about 1833
Daug: Mary Williams born about 1837


Head: Thomas Williams born about 1820
Wife:  Anne Williams born about 1818
Son:   Thomas Williams born about 1846
Daug: Margaret Williams born about 1848
Son:   John Williams born about 1849

I hope this might help. It is not that easy to see from the 1841 as it does not state the relationship like it does on the 1851.

Hello Steve

Well I have even more Williams to investigate now, I'm sure there must be relatives amongst them.

Many thanks for your time and effort.
