Maddie, I thank you deeply for your help. I have filled in the new names, and solved some of my questions. But of course, as we know too well, it just means more people to research and lots more info to find.
Time for bed.

I hope so, that would just make more work searching for another marriage LOL.

wonder if they made a mistake with the name

Wendy

Wendy Report 14 Jun 2012 16:28

Certainly looks like them. James is correct per name and age. A bit worried about Ellen as his wife though.
Ely Place looks to be correct again.

Out of curiosity Maddie, is it possible to find the family in the 1861 census? Of course Eliza is married then, but there may be younger unmarried siblings still at home.

Wendy

Wendy Report 14 Jun 2012 15:40

Apart from Eliza, I have absolutely nothing about deaths/marriages etc for any of her siblings, and indeed, I don't know how many there were. The only thing I knew were some names and the baptism date.

Looking at the children, this would give us so far...
Edwin 1838
Eliza 1841
Caroline 1844
William 1859
Edward Corbett
Somewhere in there should also be Henry and perhaps Edwin and Edward are the one and same?
Great to finally have a name for their mother.

Just digesting the information. The 1851 census threw me, but I realise Jane should read James.
BRB, I am going to take a look at the birth years for the boys and see if they others fit in.

Excellent Maddie. At the time of her marriage, her address was listed as 3 Ely Place. Her husband Henry was listed living with his family at 2 Ely Place in the 1851 census, so that fits nicely.
