I am trying to verify the family of William Jones and Mary b circa 1832 Diddlebury relying mainly so far on census records.
William was born circa 1828 in Ditton Priors, parents not known, and married Mary, maiden name unknown, who was born Diddlebury circa 1832. His occupation was tailor. They had two children born in Velindre Radnorshire - Alfred John b1854 or 1855, also a tailor (I can not find his birth registration - there are two possibilities; one in Wolverhampton and one in Kidderminster) and Mary b1855 or 1856. Two children, William and Helen, were born in Bettws in 1859 and 1863. A daughter, Alice, was born in Clun in 1865. Two children, Herbert and Annie, were born in Bromyard, Herefordshire in 1869 and 1871. There is also an Edith b1869 who begins as a boarder then becomes a granddaughter and finally a daughter.
I have a sight of a William Jones in the 1841 census working as a servant in Ditton Priors but can not locate him in the 1851 and 1861. In 1871, the family is registered in Winslow Herefordshire, in 1881 Glanford Brigg Lincolnshire and in 1891 and 1901 Nottinghamshire. I believe William died in Nottingham in 1887.
Alfred John Jones is my great grandfather and I have found his father's name, William, on his marriage certificate.
Any help on tracing William's ancestry, his marriage and the 1851 and 1861 census entries would be greatly appreciated.
