So, possibly finding Patience and/or Ann in 1841 might lead to parents?

Hi Ozi

Thanks for that. I found a James Grainger/Ann Evans in Shrewsbury Sep 1850 too????
Will have to get my sis in law to resend me the 1851 she found so i can see where they are living. Might give more of a clue as to which spouse, if either of course, is correct.

Thanks heaps :-)
Vanessa

EDIT: Looks like your Thomas Granger is the correct one - as per Joneseys post above. Thanks heaps Jonesey!

Unfortunately I cannot spot a Richard and Ann Evans together nor can I spot a marriage 1841~1851 between a Thomas Grainger (Per 1851 census) and an Anne Evans.

?????
Marriages Sep 1843
EVANS Ann Wellington S 10 177 <<<<<
FRENCH Mary Honiton 10 177
GRANGER Thomas Honiton 10 177 <<<<<
HOOPER Henry Honiton 10 177
MADDOXS Ann Honiton 10 177

I wonder if there's been a bit of a muddle here. Or is it just coincidence?

Thanks Jonesey

Any chance that you can find Richard & Ann together? I know that by 1851 Ann was re-married to a ?? Grainger and Thomas was listed as Stepson, but dont know if Richard died so trying to find a timeframe to look for.

Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks heaps
Vanessa

Hi

Could somebody kindly do a look up on the 1841 census please.

I am looking for Thomas Evans ca 1831, with parents Richard and Ann(e). I would expect them to be in Shropshire - Wellington/ Wombridge/Oakengates areas.

Many thanks
Vanessa
