Find Ancestors

hi susan im sorry i didnt see this message im getting my teeth back into this again so i will message you soon.. william is my 3x great grandfather my grandad, peter jacobs son of rowland, son of joeseph, son of william

I am the great granddaugher of the William Jacobs born in 1850 and shown as 1 year old on the 1851 census. Have you mangaed to track down descendants of the other siblings?

yea i agree helen it is sad.. and in the same month must of been hard for them!
the parish church records for michelmersh and timsbury are really good for information such as that

It's sad to see these wee souls died in the same month ... same year.

Happened all too often in families back then.

have looked at the parish records for michelmersh church and i think you maybe right helen

sarah ann jacobs 19 mar 1866 2
marthe mary jacobs 29 mar 1866 6

there is 2 other phoebe jacobs they died in 1866 81
1835 53 1862 79

i will have a look on the parish records for michelmersh church for any of these burials helen

Another two possible siblings ... missing from the census ... may have died.

just the reason i ask is that there were 2 william jacobs born around the same time who both came from michelmersh think thats why i was getting confused with the whole thing!..

There is a possibility that this is the marriage. It fits timewise
