Sorry Nell, I've just checked the census records I have. William was born in Shropshire, his wife and kids were born in Staffs and he married in Staffs. Sorry to waste your time. Jayne x

Street given as Dark Lane Strange, he seems to be living with the SHEPHERD family in 1871 and 1881. I would guess that if he had been living with the same family since he was small he may not have known his dad's name and gave brian as a name.

Jane If you have a census entry in which William says he is born Shrops, then I doubt if the one I have in which he says born Staffs is the same chap. nell

Oh Gerri - could this be him?? I was starting to think he didn't exist! What info would the death cert give me? Jayne x

Hi JIm/Helen, Anythings a possibility Helen! I have no siblings for him so I can't even guess if it is or not. It doesn't say deceased on the marriage cert though at the side of his name. Yes that's William and his family. I have the census entries and the certificates for those. Thank you for trying to help me with this. Jayne x

just found this.....hope it helps Name: Baugh, Briah Record Type: Deaths Age at death: 67 Quarter: September Year: 1899 District: Walsall County: Staffordshire Volume: 6b Page: 445 (click to see others on page)

Is this them? 1891 census View Record Ann E Baugh abt 1860 Dawley, Shropshire, England Wife Rushall Staffordshire View Record Annie Baugh abt 1887 Heath End, Staffordshire, England Daughter Rushall Staffordshire View Record Beriah Baugh abt 1882 Pelsall, Staffordshire, England Son Rushall Staffordshire View Record Elizabeth Baugh abt 1890 Heath End, Staffordshire, England Daughter Rushall Staffordshire View Record William Baugh abt 1859 Dark Lane, Shropshire, England Head Rushall Staffordshire

Could this be William before he married, on the 1881 census: Kingswinford St, Kingswinford, Staffordshire William Baugh abt 1859 Staffordshire, Head , Engineer Coal Rts Ruth Baugh abt 1855 Staffordshire, England Sister Naomi Baugh abt 1863 Staffordshire, Sister Benjamin Baugh abt 1867 Staffordshire, England Brother Eliza Baugh abt 1825 Staffordshire, Mother I imagine William's father is dead. It's a nuisance that it doesn't give WHERE in Staffs he was born, but I will see if I can find the family further back if you think this looks possible. nell

I've reached a total brick wall with this side of the family. Details I have so far:- William Baugh born c1859 married Annie Elizabeth Haywood born c1859 on 3rd October 1881 (have marriage certificate). On certificate it states William's dad as Briah Baugh, Miner but I can't find any trace of him at all!! They were living in Heath End, Rushall, Staffs when they got married. I've been looking at this on and off for nearly a year now and still haven't got anywhere so your thoughts/ideas would be greatly appreciated. Jayne x
