1881 census is Samual who married Mary Mottram my g granny, they had a son named James 1873 who married Catherine Lea. A Daughter Jane and Charlotte all living in Soho, Handsworth, staffs

Samual had brothers one named John born 1838/39 but some census are different birth years!!

We have found some graves in Bickerton Church Yard but not Mary, I just can't find her.

No worries about the questions, thanks for helping me.

The marriage for Catherine Lea is to Samuel Ackerley,so why if he is born Samuel 1873 and married as Samuel, 1891 and 1911 as Samuel,why on earth did he change it to James.

And on his childrens marriage certificates he is Samuel.

I have in front of me a print out of the 1881 census for Mary Ackerley, spouse's name James which is incorrect, i have their marriage certificate for Mary and Samual dated 1872. The children are listed Charlotte Ackerley 8, , Jane Ackerley 4, Samual Ackerley 7, and Henry Perkins 18.

The son is James, the spouse is Samual. The names have been listed incorrectly.

Thanks

Hi Carol
Thought I would join the story!
I still can`t find Mary either!
Remember when her Daughter was Baptised at Bickerton,she was given the name Elina![not Charlotte]
Her niece Genevieve is called Jane or Jenny as well!
When I`ve finished my update on John and Martha`s family,I will send it on to you.

Hi Kate

You are way in front of me, when was Charlotte baptised, who is Genvieve? Mary must be somewhere, I thought that my be she had died because on the 1891 census Charlotte reverts back to Mottram, or maybe she got married again but I would have thought if is she was alive after 1887 ( when Samual remarried), then i think she may have come back with Charlotte to her roots which is Bickerton. Thanks for your info really helpful.
