Find Ancestors

Hello Robin Thanks for looking again. Shirley

Hi Robin, Thought i'd ask for a different Reeves this time - maybe i'll have more luck! Could you, when you have a mo, please look for Samuel Reeves born 1809 in Willenhall, Staffs. Out of interest , are there many "Reeves" or "Adams" in Willenhall? Grateful for your help, Karen

Robin May I ask for another Simnett, this time Thomas Simnett b 1829 Burton on trent Many thanks Leigh

Missing Link These two are the nearest in age, Piece 2012 Burton Folio 116 John Street, Thomas 19? Brick Maker at Maltsters B Newhall? Staffs, Ann 19? Folio 161,Anderstaff? Lane, Thomas 19, Brewers Labourer, B Burslem Sarah 18, Elizabeth 5,Edward 5 Frances 2 m.

Keren The only Samuel I can find is at Folio 283 69 Stafford Street Samuel Reeves 46 ,Latch maker lodging with William/Elizabeth Wootton & family. There are about 20 references to Reeve(s) and 5 for Adams in Willenhall itself.

Thanks Robin, This may well be my Samuel. I am really grateful for your look up, Karen

Could you see if there is any sign of Robert c. Goldsmith, born 1844 Stoke on Trent or Longnor please.tahnk you , Carol

Robin, I think I love you!! been chasing them for ages, sure they are the right ones as Roberts middle name has been listed as Cassius, capsins and cassins, also on one of the other census it is down as Longton not longnor, many thanks, a delighted Carol.

Carol I have no idea what Marion is going to say!

hi sorry I didn't get back to you been working only just signed on the name I was searching for was Samuel Marshall

Maureen Nothing in Cannock or Hednesford.By the way, the latter is on GENUKI 1841/51. Cast around a little and found this one at Leecroft. It is very difficult to read, especially middle names, so they are a guess, but the main names are right Piece 2016 Folio 505 Leecroft Samuel Marshall 47 Ag Lab born (Acton?) Ellen 47 b Leecroft Elizabeth (Caddick?) Dau Unmarried 17, Samuel (Walter? but could be anything) son 10 Brick Maker, Mary ( A? Ann????) dau 12. All children born at Leecroft. Fingers crossed
