  • Jennings help before 1881 please.

    Hello, Having a little trouble finding the right Thomas Jennings before 1881, hoping someone might see what I'm not.

    Marriage to Ellen Walley in 1879 Kingswinford, Staffordshire has his age as 23. Address at that time Harts Hill, Occ labourer.
    Father Thomas Jennings, Labourer. There is also a Charles Jennings as one of the witnesses, the other witness is from the brides family.

    In 1881 they are living Dudley, Worcestershire. Thomas born c.1854 Brockmoor, Staffordshire.

    1891 in Dudley Thomas born c.1853 Hartshill, Dudley, Worcestershire.

    RG12; Piece: 2295; Folio 116; Page 6


    1901 in Quarry Bank, Staffordshire Thomas born c.1863 Stroud, Gloucesershire. Also a nephew Thomas Jennings 21 in the house.

    RG13; Piece: 2762; Folio: 27; Page: 45.

    Yes, he and his wife seem to have got quite a bit younger in 1901 but it is them.


    Any help finding Thomas in either 1871 or 1861 would be great, thanks for you time!

      Thanks Jan,

      there is a Charles in the family also. I'll have to start tracing all that family and see if they may have moved back to the Staffordshire area or at least Thomas.

        No not that one, thanks for looking though Jan.

        He's still with his father in Lancashire in 1881.

            Thanks again Jan,

            He seems to be married and living in Lancashire in 1881 though.

            Think I'll be giving up on Thomas, on the marriage certificate he and Charles seem to be able to write as they sighed there own names and yet at least his wife knew where she was born and she only made her mark.
            She's been so much easier and there's no father for her either.

                The ones posted by Jan seem feasible to me. His birth place on those is Wall Heath. which is next to Kingswinford. The areas of Harts Hill and Brockmoor arent too far away.

                Eldersfield is a long way away though

                  That family are on the 1881 census -- so it's the wrong family as the Thomas Fiona is looking for is living with his wife on the 1881.

                                  Neither of them have middle names on the marriage certificate and I can't be sure Charles is Thomas' brother.

                                      No idea, it only gives the two witnesses names on the marriage certificate. One being Charles the other being Margaret Payne who was the brides step sister.
