Thanks Mel. I have a death for a Thomas Beard in 1838 which I think is probable the right one and a re-marriage for Martha in 1840 - to John Bloor. |

If you can search by address I found somebody (i've marked possible, but my note is incomplete) at Broad Bottom, Aston & Oldham, Cheshire. I noted this address as some registrations for Ipstones/Bradnop read as Cheadle which is also Cheshire. |

Found John in 1841 he is a Servant for the family of Pheobe Bloor 65 a Farmer but has been put down seperately. Living at Bottom Lane, Ipstone.They are on page 1. Also on the next page 2 is John Bloor wife Martha and her daughter Hannah Beard aged 7 yrs. John Bloor is a publican aged 25 on this census and Martha too. |

I should think that Albert is Pheobe's grandson. Perhaps William was married to Rebecca although she is only 15!! The 1841 census is not very good because they rounded the ages up to 5 years sometimes. John Brooks is down as born 1825 and thats what I had put in when I found him. Hannah Beard is down for the right year of birth though at 1834. |

Pheobe is head of the house so she must be a Widow. John Brooks is in the same house but down as Farm Servant but they have transcribed him as being on his own. Thats why I put both census on there. That must be how he met Hannah though. The 1841 census has two pages to look at viewed as one page. It is not until the next census that you only get one page to view at a time. |
