Joseph King
« on: Wednesday 16 March 05 14:27 GMT (UK) »
In 1851 Joseph King  was married to Louisa.They were the School Master and Matron respectively of the Bledlow Workhouse. What I don't understand is - the children were alone living elsewhere - was there some reason for that (I know there was Cholera in other parts of the country, for example)  or was it just school rules!! I'd love to find out more about them if possible  Thanks in advance!

Thank you for the information on Joseph and Louisa King who worked at Bledlow workhouse. Nice to be able to find information about them - a bit of social history thrown in as well.

While this an old thread, and I have not much to do lately, they are in Manchester.

One of the reasons for finding this family, is the fact that they were at Bledlow Workhouse, and there are a few of my relatives there at the same time in 1851.

As for Gypsies, yes I had relatives that moved about all over England.  From Bucks, to Liverpool, to Edinburgh, and back again. Kinda makes your head spin. ;D

Thanks for all the info, its very much appreciated- The King family  from the workhouse were my ancestors.  Joseph James certainly had a lot of different jobs- and youre right  it does make your head spin - im all over Britain following my famiky. Im just in the beginning of my search and this is the first time I've used Rootschat. So thanks again fir the info.
