I've found them on the 1841 census and in a tree of a family member my line is through there son Edward Dixon born on 1828 in hartlebury I've found his birth bit no last name for his mom x

1841 in Hartlebury, Worcs;
George Dixon   24
Mary Dixon   45
Eliza Dixon   15
Edward Dixon   11
William Dixon   10
Thomas Dixon   8
John Dixon   7

1851 Mary is born c 1803 Kidderminster and 1861 c 1801 Bewdley

1851;
Mary Dickson 48
George Dickson 25
John Dickson 16
Thomas Dickson 14

1861;
Mary Dixon   60
George Dixon   40
Thomas Dixon   23

George (under Dickson) seems to be the 1st child christened 28 March 1817 Kidderminster.
John the last child christened 23 March 1834 Hartlebury

Just posting for background.

Hi thank you I've just found those so could his father be George and not Edward x

[trish1120]

No I dont think so it appears Edward Snr may have died between 1833/4 and 1841.
George the Son christened 1817 looks to be the head of household in 1841 Census.
1851 his age is out but 1861 is nearer to his right age.

Trees have Edward born c 1787 Hartlebury but that makes him lot older than his Wife Mary from her Census ages.
2nd Wife?
Although I cant find any Marriage to even 1 Mary that seems to fit 1810-1834.

Hi Breese
I'm on holiday about 12 miles outside Worcester so on my latest visit to the HIVE at Worcester I thought I'd try to help you by searching Hartlebury & it's contiguous parishes for the marriage you need but have had no luck so far & have searched (for about 3hours so far)
Hartlebury 1803 to 1831
Elmley Lovet 1802 to 1836
Arley Kings 1805 to 1838
Stone 1805 to 1828
Stourport on Severn 1805 to 1820
Kidderminster (st Mary's) 1807 to 1812
On my visit next Tuesday I will continue to search Kidderminster, Ombersley & Wilden also Astley is a possibility but it's my opinion this marriage could well have taken place at Claines or Worcester more than likely St Martin's or even in the brides parish as it often did

All the very best

Hi Breese

I forgot to say that I looked in the marriage record books at the HIVE but the marriage you want to find is not in them so FHS points to it more than likely have taking place in a large parish I would think but not all the marriages for the county have been entered in these volumes so don't take that as it not taking place

All the very best

Phill
