I have found a James Wall born c.1862 in Birmingham. Does he show up in the 1871 census with parents please? |

Thank you Kay, that could be him. I will see if I can find a marriage for his parents. |

I take it this isn't him in 1881? |

Frances - the image is appallingly faint and I think the John Wall aged 30 is actually another child |

There's something wrong with that 1871 census. Why is 3 year old Charles listed before the others? Children are usually listed in order. Also when you look at the original John is also a son and he's also 3. There's also something written in the occupation column for 3 year old Charles but I can't make out what it says. |

I think Charles age 3 is listed as a gardener |

I think you're right, K, and I think this might be the same family: |

I can't see Charles post 61 but this is 51 could be why he met Sarah in Herefordshire Edit - listed as a groom |

Hi K. I did see Samuel James being born at the right time but he is not carrying a second name in 1881. Also census ages can be remarkably changeabe over the decades! |

Based on the 1881 cencus you posted you are looking for Samuel not James? |

Yes K. The Lloyd family are my main interest but I am unable to pinpoint either John or Hannah and think the link to Samuel Wall might be the key. |

That is just my luck Ozibird - unless you can see his parents in the workhouse as well - lol |
