Have just had a thought  ;) have you tried posting on the Warwickshire board,incase someone has access to the parish registers for baptisms in Aston?

It might tell you who mum and dad actually are.

All the best

I've just found them all in 1861 EUREKA  ;D ;D ;D

At 9 Court,Barn? St , St Peter Birmingham.

RG 9/ 2148 folio 92 page 39

Mary A Hewson head 34 looks like W (widow) button finisher b Studley Worcs
Jane Hewson dau unm 16      also button finisher  b Bham as were all the rest.
Henry Hewson son unm 12 pencil case maker
Alan Hewson son 7 scholar
George Hewson son 2
Ellen Hewson dau 7 mths.

And look at this .......... 8) boarder William Garrey  unm 31 Brickmaker. b Bham

I wonder if he was making more than bricks?  ;)

So it looks like he wasn't married before and the kids so far are all hers- but who is the dad of the younger few?

Hope this helps.

And now in 1851...........at 9 Court, Milk ? Street ,St Martin's Bham.

HO 107/ 2053 folio 687 page 18

Thomas Hewson head 26 Brass Founder b Bham
Mary Ann Hewson wife 26 Pearl button maker b Bham !
Jane dau 7 at home b Bham
Henry son 2 b Bham
Emma dau 1 month b Bham

I'll look for Thomas's death now.if he did indeed die  ;D

Looks like the kids with Geary in their names were William's and the others who were just Hewson were Thomas's........whaddya think  ;D

I have looked for a Thoms Hewson death in Bham between 1851 and 1861 and find there are 4 possibles in Free BMD.Never mind those who are not on there yet.

The ages of the children point to the 1846 Bradley/Hewson marriage being correct though.

Blimey Carol you are GREAT  ;)
That is fantastic.
They have been found at last.
And William was the border  :o :o
Mmmmmm it must have been more than bricks he was laying  ;)

I have just telephoned my mum with the news (it's dad's side of the family) dad will be very pleased.

I think I will get the marriage of Mary and Thomas too.
And now there are two more older children, I had Allen as the oldest.

I will have a look at see if I can work out the death.
When his last child was born, once we work out whose kids are who.

Thank again for all you help.

Hi Carol  :)

The certificates arrived this morning  ;D but I wont see them until next week as mum has them and she is going away today  :'(

Anyway he is info I have.

1) the marriage of THOMAS HEWSON Full age. A Brasspounder? Father HENRY a Brasspounder.
MARY ANN LEE BRADLEY Minor  :o Father Benjamin Roller?  Bricklayer?

2) the birth of Lily Hewson. 28th Nov 1869.
Mother Mary Ann Hewson.
Father William Hewson  :o Labourer.
1, PALMER ST ASTON.

3) marriage of WILLIAM GEARY 51 Bachelor. Bricklayer. Father William Geary a Brass Founder.
Mary Ann Hewson 50, a Widow. Father Benjamin a Bricklayer.

4) birth of WILLAIM THOMAS EDWARD JORDAN GEARY, 30th July 1859.
Father William Geary a Master Hair ?? (mum cannot read the rest)
Mother SOPHIA GEARY formerly JORDAN.
136 GREAT BROOKE ST ASTON.

I don't know why William is a Hewson on the birth cert, Thomas didn't have a brother called William did he?
Maybe he called himself Hewson as they were not married at that point and he wanted a name under father on the birth cert, or Mary Ann put it on  ???

I need to get the death cert for Thomas Hewson, and Allan's birth cert too.

Mmmmmmmmm  what do you think?

Hi Pettsy

Thie is just a quick reply,as not been in from work long,but will study this more tomorrow. The William with all the names is not yours!!! His dad was a hairdesser and his mum Sophia- not Mary Ann.

The job you are trying to read is Brass Founder- ie he worked in a brass foundry.

Leave it with me- too tired to get my head round it now  :-\

Hi Carol

Thank you.

I am still trying to work out if William was married before, he was 51 when he married Mary Ann.

And there was a Geary son in between the Hewson's  ???

Brass Founder, thanks  ;)
I haven't seen it yet, mum couldn't work it out.

Speak soon.
