Hi jennifer
Yes 1891 where Frances is a widow must be correct as John died in 1883.
William had married Fanny Chillingworth in Sep Q 1881 and all kids ages seem to match with what I have.
Thanks for the info.

Thanks for that margaret have just looked at IGI there's lots of Neelds and Millingtons. I think I'll have a coffee and look at it again with fresh eyes!
Many thanks to you all that looked for me

Margaret
Andy found a marriage between those 2 in Jun Q 1842, maybe you found them by accident!
Cassie

I think he must have changed his occ if it's the same John, I think we have the right 1851 and 1861 but he wasn't with Frances in 1871 that Glitter Baby found.
The ages add up on this one though.
Cassie

OOPS! My mistake, Cassie, I mis-typed Middleton. It was Millington. I'll go back and correct it.
Margaret

Thanks for that margaret, it's a possiblity that Middleton was mistaken for Millington.
Cassie

That could be a possible one as George was 4 in 1851 census that Andy found. Maybe Maria and henry are his wife and son. I wonder where John ( husband ) was?? !!
Thanks for looking Glitter baby
Cassie

The marriage is on IGI:
John Millington married Frances Neeld, 20 June 1842, Castle Church, Stafford, England.

A possible sister? If so gives father's name John.
Emily Millington married Charles Bate, 27 Dec. 1843, Castle Church, Stafford, England. Father John.
(Just realized it doesn't say whose father was John!)

George is a butcher, Head, Staffordshire
Frances is listed as married

Just been looking at 1861, Frances is listed and John's occup is a butcher, don't know what to think now!
Cassie

If 1871 is wrong then so is the 1861 as both have same occupation

That doesn't look like my family then as Frances died in 1894 and John was a carter in 1881
Thanks for spotting that, Cassie

The John Millington on1871 above is a widower and a butcher by occupation

Thanks for that margaret!
Cassie

Oh No just read your post Rutland Belle, My John's wife died 1894 and he was a carter (1881) looks like that's not right family in 1871 then
Cassie

There was a Neeld family in 1861 census along with John and Frances that you found so it's a good chance that's them Many Thanks!
