Right then, so we have a 10 year age difference somewhere amiss for Sarah Meads???

She is 18 and unmarried on 1841.

The 1851 shows her married to William but she is 38! - I have looked again and it does say 38, However, I believe this could well be an error as on the 1861, still with William, she is 39 !

Sarah's marriage cert to William Brown would give you details of both parents, probably their ages, and more useful info:

This looks like it:

Marriages Dec 1844

BAKER Henry Kensington 3 217
***BEADS Sarah Kensington 3 217
***BROWN William Kensington 3 217
CHOICE Bridget Kensington 3 217
CUMMINGS Johanna Kensington 3 217

Hillyar Henry Kensington 3 217
Hillyer Henry Kensington 3 217
***MEADS Sarah Kensington 3 217
WALTON Louisa Kensington 3 217

........................

Looking for her parents, I find:

Very probably Adelaide's parents (therefore parents also of Sarah??)

.................

Trying to find and connect the 3 children - Adelaide, William and Sarah to George + Mary, I find 2 Baptisms:

London, England, Births and Baptisms, 1813-1906
about Sarah Meads Name: Sarah Meads
Record Type: Baptism
Estimated Birth Date: abt 1822
Baptism Date: 16 Jun 1822
Father's name: George Meads ...Labourer
Mother's name: Mary Meads
Parish or Poor Law Union: West Twyford
Borough: Ealing
Birth: 28th May, 1822

..........

London, England, Births and Baptisms, 1813-1906
about William Meads Name: William Meads
Record Type: Baptism
Estimated Birth Date: abt 1819
Baptism Date: 24 Oct 1819
Father's name: George Meads .... Labourer
Mother's name: Mary Meads
Parish or Poor Law Union: West Twyford
Borough: Ealing
Born 5th October, 1819

Unfortunately, these Baptism records only start at 1813 - Adelaide was born prior to that date !!

.................

We now have a very good match for a possible marriage of George and Mary?

London, England, Marriages and Banns, 1754-1921
about George Meads Name: George Meads
Spouse Name: Mary Adams
Record Type: Marriage
Marriage Date: 02 Nov 1807
Parish: St Mary, Church Road, Hanwell
County: Middlesex
Borough: Ealing

If you remember, when Adelaide married Thomas, the witness was William ADAMS, so it looks good to connect!

Of course, you would need a few certs to prove all this.

What do you think?

Dea x

nite nite god bless

Will work on it again in the morning - nite nite,

Dea x

Thankyou dea ,your so good ,what would i do without you

Probable marriage for Thomas + Adelaide:

London, England, Marriages and Banns, 1754-1921
about Thomas Swan Name: Thomas Swan
Spouse Name: Adela Meads
Record Type: Marriage
Marriage Date: 29 Nov 1829
Parish: St Mary, Hanwell
County: Middlesex
Borough: Ealing

Witnesses William Adams + Parish Clerk.

Sarah is therefore Adelaide's sister - this should make them easier to find.

Laters!!!

Dea x

P.S. - There is a 10 year age gap on Sarah though - needs more work !!!

Will come back to you.
