Simbey/Semley ? derbyshire
« on: Tuesday 23 August 05 20:13 BST (UK) »
Can somebody transcibe the following census entries for Samuel Wootton head of households, as I cannot read/make out the birthplace is it Simbey or Semley and I cannot find either in Derbyshire, also on the 1881 census he lists his birthplace as Burton. 
They are:-

Longton, Staffs
Samuel Wootton Father 38 Carpenter Derby Semley
Mary Ann Mother 31 Staffs Stone
Abraham Son 10 Fenton
Hannah Daughter 9 Fenton
Wm. Saml.  Son 18mths? Infant Staffs Longton

1871
RG10/2875 Folio 10 Page 13
Market Street, Longton, Stoke
Samuel Wooton 48 Wheelwright and Carpenter Simbey? Derbyshire
Mary Ann 42 Lightwood
Hannah 19 Potters Throwers Wheel turner Fenton
William 11 Scholar Longton
John 6 Scholar Longton
James 4 Scholar Longton
Thomas Clewer? Brother in law Married 60 Carpenter Ipstones Staffs

Many thanks

Many thanks for your translation Bryan, but I'm not convinced it's Sawley does anyone think it may be Smisby ??? :-\

Hi

Have had another look and as you say it very well could be Smisby, it is the only other place in Derbyshire that would fit.
