Re william Bailey

[trish1120]

I am having trouble finding family 1851. But have found William and Mary, possible parents of William 1806;

1851 Census
18 High Street            HO107/1749/191/5
Somerham, Huntingdonshire

William BAILEY, head, mar, 73, ag lab, born Northamp-Corby
Mary, wife, mar, 66, born Hunts Somersham
Jane AYRES, daug,39, widow, charwoman, Hunts/Somerham
Rebecca Ayres, grand/dau, 12, scholar, born as above
John Ayres, 10
Robert Ayres, 4
Emma BAILEY, grand/dau, unm, 22, Hunts Somerham

This seem to work with Familysearch record as William has sister Jane born 1812 on it.

Hi Caroldawn;

I grew up in NZ

1851 Census

25 Huntingdon Road
Witton, Huntingdonshire

Jane BAILEY, head, mar, 42, Publican, born Middlesex, London
Doris (indexed as Davis), daug, unm, 18
Wallis, son, unm, 15
Lancelott, son, unm, 4
Has children as all born Witton, Hunts

So where is William? Away working ? And Robert with Dad?
Now Janes POB does not tally with 1841 and family group record. Could William have married twice to a Jane? or is it just a mistake?
And Charles, 1832, I feel must have died before 1841 Census.


I will keep working on this but at some stage will need to move this to Huntingdonshire board to have everything checked with Parish Records etc.

Can I ask where the info for Jane Tuck/Fathers name Thomas Baker came from?

I think it is possible William married 2 Janes.

 William and  son Charles died about 1849-1850.  I know there was an eperdemis of Cholera around at that time and think he succumbered to it.his wife Jane married again George Taunter and they lived in Haughton. Ive seen in family search where he married Jane Tuck but thomas baker may only have been a stepfather
where were you born

Thanks for that. I have learnt to ask as sometimes hours are spent searching to them only find people know they died
EDIT, just realised you stated he died 1849ish in first posting

Why I asked about the Thomas Baker was that due to the 1851 census deatils being different I thought that William chould have married 2 Janes.

There is a Marriage;
William BAILEY
March 1840
St Ives
On same page Jane BAKER

If this was correct she would be the Mother of Lancelott

William BAILEY
Christened, 27 April 1806, Somersham, Huntingdon
Parents, William Bailey and Mary PETERS

Hunts Marriage Index has a marriage in 1805 at Somersham between William Bailey and Mary Peters, so at least that part of the member submission looks to be correct. But Somersham baptisms are only available at Huntingdon Records Office as the parish register hasn't been filmed by the LDS so are not on the IGI or BVRI. They run a reasonably priced research service for those who can't get to Huntingdon
