I am trying to trace the Hayes family back. I have managed to get it back to john Hayes, Born C1830 in shrewsbury, (we are all still currently living in shrewsbury as well). but I can't seem to find any more.

John Hayes was married to Sarah Shaw, Daughter of Abraham Shaw and Susannah Orme.

any information would be greatly received.

Many thanks

Emma :) x

Hi

Yes thats them. John was the eldest of the siblings.

Where did you find this and do you have any mre information at all?

xx

Also......what does the "pedigree" bit mean?

I am not too good at this, despite doing it for about a year, but am still very much a novice! xx

I got the info from www.familysearch.org

For Sussanah it would appear that she was born in Stafford although for Abraham there were a few came up for Shropshire in early 1800's also appears to be Shrewsbury

Marriage of John and Susan - once again Stafford which would bear out Susannah being born there.

Pedigree is an option to click onto to complete a chart on this site but usually blank!

Emma

Emma Report 13 Feb 2009 12:46

Yep thats definately them.

With regards to john Hayes, Head of Household....I can't find anything on him and his parents ata ll?

Any ideas where i could look next? xxx

Emma

Emma Report 13 Feb 2009 12:47

Ive got him in 1851, where he was visiting/living with Sarah Shaw in Catle Forgate in shrewsbury, but nothing else xx

Emma

Emma Report 13 Feb 2009 12:53

it could be them, as one of their daughters was born in liverpool.

there first child, John, was born in 1853.......would they really have got married 11 years after their first born?

How can I find out?

Emma

Emma Report 13 Feb 2009 13:02

Have deleted marriage for 1864 found this one

Marriages Sep 1851 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Davies Ann Shrewsbury 18 219
GRAINGER Samuel Shrewsbury 18 219
Groom Ann Shrewsbury 18 219
Hayes John Shrewsbury 18 219
Hughes Elizabeth Shrewsbury 18 219
Owen Thomas Shrewsbury 18 219
Shaw Sarah Shrewsbury 18 219
Ward James Shrewsbury 18 219

If you THINK this is the correct marriage send for cert this will then confim names etc to work backwards from

I would do this as I am a little confused regarding the birthplace of John although it does say Shrewsbury on the 1881 census

Do you think that even though the spelling of Hayes has changed to Hays there, that it is likely it could be the same ones?

xx

by the way, thanks so so much for all your help :)

This John fits in with the 1881 census posted - place name of birth.

Always assuming this is the correct John on the 1881??

Yes I think they may be the same ones as spellings do vary quite a bit

As I said if the marriage posted above is correct for 1851 send for the cert this will confirm fathers names.
