Hello

Sylvia has asked for help on a Derbyshire post I watch and I love a puzzle.

Try Heage Duffield on the 1841 census I think Ann is born 1838.

Hope this helps.

If you want me to look anymore just ask. IMy guess would be they are Gypsies or Fair Ground people.

Hi Chris

I think I was wrong they are not the right couple. In 1851 they are in Wolverhampton and looks like they have lost Ann, William is an Iron puddler .

hi ladies. ive been out of town for two days. will be back later today. i just have to share some fantastic news with you. i found my birth father and the other night hatted with him for three hours. he was registered as colin webb then adopted at 12 by his step father and became colin gray then changed his name to colin deane. thanks to a dear friend who is a genealogist who finds missing people for probate inheritances. he gave me a cell phone of a colin deane with the same dob as my father and it is him :)
