1891 census Here is 'a' Maria, she is a widow, one child though! Puzzled about the year of birth, could be wrong, and just missed the last census. Will look for other Maria/Thomas's. George Abraham Wild abt 1880 Sheffield, Yorkshire, England Son Sheffield Maria Wild abt 1861 Sheffield, Yorkshire, England Head Sheffield Address: Looks like St Stephen's Road Court, No. 1 House. Maria is a Laundress. Source information: RG12/3820 Registration district: Sheffield Sub registration district: North Sheffield ED, institution, or vessel: 24 Folio: 22 Page: 37 GSU Number: 6098930

Hmm, tricky!! I'll have another look at the thread later to see if anyone has helped you further, I'm afraid I'll have to do some work now, otherwise I'll be in trouble!! I've found another maria, similar birthyear but husband walter! Maybe she married Thomas's younger brother! Ernest Wild abt 1890 Sheffield, Yorkshire, England Son Nether Hallam Maria A Wild abt 1862 Wadsley Bridge, Yorkshire, England Wife Nether Hallam Walter Wild abt 1861 Sheffield, Yorkshire, England Head Nether Hallam Walter A Wild abt 1889 Sheffield, Yorkshire, England Son Nether Hallam

That could possibily be Maria's death...if so Thomas William Wild would be a widower on 1891........does this help find him?,,,,,,,,,,,frances

Liberty64 Report 8 Mar 2006 11:18

For illimination purposes.... the only Thomas Wild (widower) i can find is this chap, however his year of birth makes him too old, ive checked image and it is correct! Thomas Wild Age: 44 Estimated birth year: abt 1847 Relation: Lodger Gender: Male Where Born: Sheffield Civil parish: Sheffield Ecclesiastical parish: Moorfields St Jude County/Island: Yorkshire Country: England Source information: RG12/3816 Registration district: Sheffield Sub registration district: North Sheffield ED, institution, or vessel: 5 Folio: 116 Page: 26 (click to see others on page) GSU Number: 6098926
