Doleman in Sedgley

[ciderdrinker]

Hi
Everyone's done amazing work. Well done!
 Can I just add where Batman's Hill was
https://maps.nls.uk/view/101597519

It was just south of Bradley on the NE portion of the map
It was right next to the canal.

Baptism for Frederick?
Bilston 25 Dec 1802 to Samuel and Mary Doleman

sisters and brothers - Sarah 2.6.1805 ,Charlotte 10.7.1808,Samuel 28.10.1810,Thomas 20.9.1812 ,Samuel 26.6.1814,George 30.4.1815 and Mary 29.6.1817
Samuel Senior was a labourer and they were from Highfields Sedgley.
He seems to have died 11th April 1843 according to probate (although burial 14 May 1844 age 65 at Bilston ) and left a Will which probate is granted twice-once 1844 and once 1854 .
It's on FindMyPast but can forward it on if you want.
Mary was buried 27 Sep 1818 age 36 years and Samuel remarried.

1851 has a Jane DELSMAN born c 1781 Bilston, Widow, with lodgers.
Burial 19 Mar 1854 age 80 on FreeREG

Cant see a Marriage to Samuel for her so in 1841 maybe not his wife, possible sister in law?

Hi
The will gives his wife as Jane and they are on the 1841 census together.
All the children match the names and dates given for Samuel and Mary Doleman at Bilston.
So he must have remarried somewhere but I can't see it.

Ok I couldnt see a Marriage either!

But if Will has her as Wife then shes not a sister in law.
Thanks Ciderdrinker
