Looking for Mills family
« on: Sunday 23 March 08 12:33 GMT (UK) »
Hi All,

I'm trying to find the family of my 3G grandfather William Mills.  I know he was born in Worcestershire (the census returns say Worcester, but I guess that could refer to the whole county!) around 1825.  His father's name was Thomas Mills and his occupation was a Tile Cutter (from William Mills Wedding Certificate).  I have found (in IGI) a William Mills with a father Thomas born in Rock.  His occupation in the 1841 census looked like Hatter, but I think might be Hellier (an old term for Tiler/Slater/Roofer).  I think this is the family but can't be certain.

Can anyone help shed any further light.

Thanks

Kevin
