Bird in Hand, High St, Bilston
« on: Wednesday 01 November 23 12:51 GMT (UK) »
I have on the 1851 census a Joseph Fletcher aged 50 running this pub with his wife Charlotte and a son William aged 1 amongst others, but in the 1861 census I still have Charlotte now 43 and William 12 but Charlotte now has the surname Cadman as the wife of James Cadman who is now a miner / victualler, in the 1871 census same pub but now run by Charlotte a widow (victualler) and William (inn keeper) also a grand daughter Charlotte Jeavons.
Given it is the same address 37 High St, Bilston I presume (should never presume i know) that Joseph Fletcher died and his wife re marries James Cadman but cannot find where or when.
Any ideas please..

AND just to point out that the GRO has given two different page numbers for the marriage - page 624 for Charlotte and 625 for Joseph.
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
