Can I suggest if you haven't already that you buy the marriage cert for George which should give his father's name and occupation.

Good Luck Kay

i have seen the one with Fanny i am going to go and do a lot of digging thanks you so much for all your help

The only George Hurdley's that I can see born in Madeley at the right time appears to have a father Thomas and mother Fanny or Elizabeth.

I presume the family living in Montgomery is the wrong family based on this.

In connecting areas there children were born in madeley. the eldest being george hurdley born 1840. I do not have certificates for confirmation of maiden name. Thankyou

There is the marrige below that may better match the family in the census being nearer to Montgomeryshire

EDWARD HURDLEY Pedigree
Male Family

Marriages:
Spouse: MARY GROVES Family
Marriage:
01 JUN 1833 Chirbury, Shropshire, England

Do you have the 1839 marriage cert with Edward's occupation and their fathers?

Edit - or a child's birth cert that confirms Mary's maiden name?

Throughout all searching i have done with this family and all the info i have been given they have been born or living in montgomery or madeley. They have all been very difficult to workout until about 1840. Thanks

or the welsh one maybe

There is a marraige of Edward Hurdley and Mary Breeze in 1839 in Madeley Reg District - Is that where her birth place came from?

Throughout the census the Mary and Edward I listed were born in Montogomryshire

Maybe this is her - It is the right Registration District and her son may have overestimated her age :-)

If Mary died in 1860. Where did Edward go

This is some confusing family :-S
