Simmonds family in Shropshire

[branwell]

Hello,

I am trying to find the death or burial of my gt-gt-grandfather Richard Simmonds.   He was probably born in the Wellington area of Shropshire in 1814-1816.   He first married a Mary Day in 1834 and they had a son, Francis.   He married again as a widower to Caroline Colley in 1839 and they had three children - Elizabeth, Richard and Mary.   He is mentioned in the Shropshire Quarter Sessions in July 1854 and Caroline remarried in June 1857 as a widow.

He obviously died between these two dates but I can find absolutely no trace of him anywhere after 1854.

If anyone else is researching this branch of the Simmonds' family I would  very much like to hear from them.

Hello,

Don't know if there is a connection or not, but would like to mention what I have.

Before I tell you what I have.  I am a senior who resides in Nova Scotia, Canada.  I have been tracing my ancestral roots (HUMPHERSON/LEESE) for a goodly number of years.

With regards to your research, I have on my tree:

Margaret Colley, spouse Robert Leese (1809).  They were married on Mar. 17, 1834 in the Parish Church of Wellington.

Sarah Simmonds (1820) married George Humpherson.  Their children:
Annie (1848);  Emily (1853);  George (1855);  Enoch (1857)

Maybe of no help, but thought it was worth a try.

Regards,

Doris

There is a death in 1855 in Stoubridge of a William Simmonds.  Could this be him?
