Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 902 Send Message	I'm trying to find the children of John and Fanny. In 1841 census they are shown with children George (1811), James(1829), Emma(1830) and Jane(1835). I can't find any information on these children and I wonder if George could be son of John and Fanny and the other three be children of George because of the big age gap. Is this possible? I think John was born about 1774 and Fanny about 1779.

Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 902 Send Message	Thanks safc. Looks like I was right about the grandchildren. I'm guessing that James is the brother of George and that the James in the 1841 census is a grandchild.

	It looks as though Ann Perry was daughter of John and Fanny from GRO Index (free) PERRY, JOSEPH mmn OSBOURNE GRO Reference: 1838 J Quarter in THE WALSALL UNION Volume 17 Page 255 and it looks as though Arthur Perry was actually 1 MONTH old, not 1 Year PERRY, ARTHUR mmn OSBORN GRO Reference: 1841 J Quarter in THE WALSALL UNION Volume 17 Page 261

Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 902 Send Message	Thanks everyone. Yes there is another thread, on Samuel Osborne, and yes Caroline and Louisa were sisters. I deliberately didn't add to that thread because I was trying to find out if the children in the 1841 census were actually grandchildren. I had no luck finding them other than in that census. Thanks for finding the marriage of John and Fanny ... I didn't have that, and I hadn't spotted Ann Perry. You guys are good.
