Thomas Ellis Old Park

[Shrop63]

Hi all my GGGGF Thomas Ellis was living in Old Park 1841 is it poss to find an exact st or even house?

The answer is generally yes but the 1841 in the area you mention is not to specific on detail.
There is no mention of Old Park but it is in the Dawley Magna area and there are 3 Thomas Ellis all young men.
If you can give some idea when he was born it might help.

He was born in 1816, he was married to Sarah iirc and lived in old park in 1841 but moved the family out to Bradley b4 the 1851 census

Thomas Ellis:
There are 6 in the County born 1816, the only one near Old Park is married to Rebecca.

If the age was rounded down to 20 he is in Finger Lane, Dawley.

Yes sorry he was married to Rebecca nee Poole.On the 1851 census from Bradley it says Old Park as place of origin.

Sadly the abode is not clear, it is in the area of Malinslee, so probably Old Park. He is a Collier, they have a daughter Pamela age 2.
