Oh goodness - all you kind people out there are certainly trying hard to establish George's details. It certainly looks as though the 1841 date is incorrect and that it was actually 1833 - that ties in with so many of the census details. I'm now wading through the names and dates :-)

Catherine,

Daniel and Ann are fairly old to have a son aged 16ish in 1841, do you think that maybe George was their Grandchild but they took him on as theirs for the face of things?

Anythings possible in this game, Dee.
After some of the things I have found in the past, I would never rule anything out.

These are possible siblings for second George:-
1. JOSEPH WEAVER - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 17 FEB 1839 Ancaster, Lincoln, England
2. WILLIAM WEAVER - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 25 DEC 1830 Ancaster, Lincoln, England
4. SUSANNAH WEAVER - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 27 MAY 1832 Ancaster, Lincoln, England
5. DAVID WEAVER - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 31 MAY 1835 Ancaster, Lincoln, England
6. ELIZA WEAVER - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 30 JUN 1825 Ancaster, Lincoln, England
7. ELIZABETH WEAVER - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 29 JAN 1821 Carlton Scroop, Lincoln, England
8. JOHN WEAVER - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 22 DEC 1822 Carlton Scroop, Lincoln, England

................could be that ages on 1841 census for the parents is not correct, will take a look at original.

Just had a look at 1841 and ages look more like 44, than 66.

I agree, does look more like 44 than 66.......... Joseph born 1839 is an orphan by 1851............... who's this William on George's marriage as his father though.

What a web they can certainly spin. LOL. ;0)

I'm totally lost now - I can't fathom out who is who! Catherine and Dee, you're both brilliant at working through it: all :-)

Re marriage with father William Weaver:- I've had a look for a birth of a George Weaver with father William and can't find anything. I'm wondering if they haven't just made a mistake especially as her father is also William???

.........Off to do the dinner! Will look in later :-)

And BatMansDaughter, too :-)

I shall take this opportunity to have my dinner also and will come back later!

Could be Catherine, enjoy your tea, I've got the washing up to do in a mo;0((

Irene, is there family in the Sleaford area?


Edit>>>>> enjoy your tea too Irene.

How this all started: I was contacted by a Stephen Brumpton on this site who thought we were distant cousins, our common ancestor being Robert Weaver dob 1806. Stephen and I both had a George Weaver in our tree and we thought it was the same person, Stephen's line being from George Weaver 1841 whereas my George was born in 1851 - we just presumed it was a discrepancy in the dob's somewhere along the line. Stephen and I have been corresponding for several months now, sharing photos etc but I have now found out that the 2 Georges are different people! Iam now trying to find out if the 2 Georges were perhaps cousins? I don't have family in Lincolnshire now but Stephen does and the Elkingtons are still farmers in his area.

Oh............

Hello again!
Got a few more mins. before hubby come homes.
Could you give us a bit of info on your George (dob1851) please.
Where was he born and who were his parents, then maybe we can find a link between the two families?

George Weaver dob 1851 had siblings William 1831- c1912, Sarah 1835, Robert 1837, Mary 1840, Ann 1842, Susan 1845, Mary 1847. George's Father was Robert Weaver dob 1805 who married twice to Dorothy Bingham and secondly to Jane dob 1804. Robert Weaver's Father was Edward Weaver dob c1771. Strangely enough my 'cousin, Stephen Brumpton who has George dob1841 (now we know is 1833), has some of these same siblings in his tree?
