Help finding William Loman please

[Sunny Rosy]

The only reference I have for William Loma(e)n, mistranscribed as Soman, born Pitminster,Somerset is the 1861 Census for Taunton, which gives his age as 40 . He was married in 1859 to Emma Pollett and their son Henry John Loman was born in 1860. On the 1871 census Emma is with her parents with Henry John as a widow. Can anyone find William's death or him on 1851/1841 census' please .

Freereg shows his name at marriage to be William LOWMAN, father John, occupation labourer

.. although not sure that helps at the moment!

Thanks Elaine, I missed the spelling, (too hasty that's my trouble) will now look for John Lowman, at least I know he wasn't previously married although he was 40, I wondered as Emma was only 24 on the census.

Thanks Julie but don't think that is my William as we know his father was John from his marriage record.

As Sunny says, probably not her man but I out of curiosity I had a look & I agree with the name correction. Going to check my local maps for 'Crookhorn' though, never heard of it. I reckon it could be 'Crowcombe', in a Somerset accent it could well sound like 'Crookhorn' to someone from elsewhere! ;D

Could this be him with father, John, born W Buckland?

Birth is given as 1827 but not clear on image.
Mother and son both given age 24???

Could Crookhorn have been Crewkerne in a local accent? Kat, the dates don't connect with what I have, but can't discount them yet.

Doh! Ofcourse it would be Crewkerne! Wish I had thought to look at this thread while I was at the RO.

Sunny do you want me to answer your email or put what I found on here?

It's not the one Kat found, that is a child, father is 27, mother 24!
