WEBBS of Ledbury

[nicky c]

Tryinh to trace Elias Webb and Hannnah webb nee Bishop
who left Salisbury sometime after 1820 and ended up in Ledbury, they had a son called James Webb who was bap 1st April 1831 in Ledbury.
Any information wopuld be great , we have been burying our heads in the sand with this lot so we decided that we would make them our challenge this year,
                                                Nicky

I can see James aged 51 on the 1881 Census in Happy Land , Ledbury with wife Susannah born Dymock aged 62 .  He was a carpenter.

Freed BMD has a death for Elias in the March quarter of 1864 in Ledbury.
Howeve I cannot locate them family on the 1851 cenus in Herefordshire .
