  • 1841/51 lookup please?

    Hi - I'm looking for a family in 1841 and 1851 but don't have an Ancestry sub at present. If anyone is able then I'd be glad of a lookup for:

    Birmingham, Warwickshire - probably the parish of Aston or St. Martin.

    John & Ann Hawkins (ages unknown) with children:
    Mary Ann born 1803
    Thomas
    William
    Jane born 1809
    John
    Samuel David
    William
    Ann born 1815
    John
    Edward James
    Eliza born 1819
    Richard
    Phebe
    George born 1821

    Judging by the names some of them died young - judging by the dob's many (all?) won't be at home with their parents by 1841.

    The wife wants the computer so I'll be offline for a while - will respond to any responses asap!

    Thanks for looking!
    Kind regards,
    William

    There's just too many to choose from Wulliam........

    Do you know any of their occupations or where they were born? (presumably in Warwickshire?)

    The only thing I tried harder for was the deaths of Samuel David (none) or Edward James (a few, but none in Warwickshire) as I thought if they had died after some of the censuses, I might be able to go back from their deaths (it was rarer to have two fornames in that time frame)......but no joy :(

      Try this couple in 1861, with MiL, Ann HAWKINS there to stay:

      RG9; Piece: 2034; Folio: 11; Page: 16

      I found it on the back of a marriage of Phoebe HAWKINS and Joseph BRADLEY in Smethwick (Holy Trinity) in 1854 - using UKBMD - Births, Marriages, Deaths Indexes & Census transcriptions for the UK, On-Line

        Just done the arithmetic. MiL is too young at only 58!

          And found them in 1851 - the husband is Thomas.

          Indeed, I think this is the Thomas and Ann (Sutton) marriage on the IGI:
          12 DEC 1825 Pentrich, Derby M058921

          I'm disappointed :( - Phoebe even has a (slightly) older brother, William.

            Thankyou for your efforts - I know that I haven't been able to give much concrete information. Christine - a particular thankyou! I'm at work so can't stop long here - will have a proper look at what you say later on. Thanks for looking though!
            Kind regards,

              Thomas baptised 30th Dec 1805
              William born 30th Mar 1807 and baptised 18th April 1808
              Jane born 1st Sept 1809 and baptised 27th Dec 1810
              John born 1st Dec 1811 and baptised 30th Dec 1811

              Edward James born 28th Aug 1817 and baptised 1st Sept 1818
              Eliza born 24th March 1819 and baptised 15th Feb 1820 (twin!!)

                  Gosh that was hard work......by combining searching on Find My Past and Ancestry together, I've found (listed as Hankins on Ancestry)

                  Duddeston Row, Birmingham (so presumably the same family as 1851!)

                  John Hawkins 60 caster
                  Ann 55 lacquerer
                  Ann 23
                  David 25
                  James 22 caster
                  George 15 umbrella (something) draper

                  All yes for born in county.

                    I wonder if John bap 1816 should read James and therefore John baptised 1811 was actually not dec'd and is the neighbour in 1851?

                    *straw clutching!*

                    At least the happen to have correctly named parents.......erm......presuming John and Ann senr are their parents in 1841!!

                          Merry, that is a huge amount of work you've done for me. I've pasted it all into Word so that I can think about it whilst my 4yr old is dancing on my knee.

                          But whether it's them or not (and it looks very likely at first reading), thankyou for putting in such efforts for me. I'll post again later (or maybe tomorrow) when I've had a chance to consider it all.
                          Kind regards,
                          William

                            Hi Merry,
                            work is starting to drown me so I've only had the littlest amount of time to digest what you've found. But I'm convinced enough to start ordering one or two certificates to check things out. Many thanks for your time! I daresay I'll be back with more questions before long.
                            Kind regards,
                            William
