Thanks Sharon! Does the 1861 census give an occupation and birthplace for Edwin's father? And were Edward and Thos employees, boarders or visitors?

;-)
Thanks again!

Hi, hoping some kind soul can please help with these.

Looking for Edwin DAVIES b. c1854 at Stockton, Shropshire/Salop. Mother Mary A b. c1824 Bridgnorth, Salop. Don't know his father's name. Hoping the earlier census will help.

In 1881 Edwin and his mother are living at Cheswardine Lane Gatehouse in Stockton, where Mary is a gatekeeper. He married Sarah MORRIS in 1882 in Shifnal.

Also for same years, Daniel PINFOLD (b. c1828 Northampton) and wife Hannah - did they have any children? May be in Newport area, Shropshire (where they married in 1852). Can't find Hannah's death but Daniel remarried in 1877 in Staffordshire to Emma SWIFT (nee PLANT) (I have her details, thanks! ;-)

Thank you!
