Mary Ann in the 1851 census which I posted, was born in Watton, Norfolk - not Devon.

It does look like the right family, though, as there are Hendry's in the same household. (brother-in-law and sister-in-law).

James senior isn't on the record, but seems to be assumed to be the head of the household, as none of the rest of them are "Head". Mary Ann is "wife".



EDIT:
Or am I getting the generations mixed up ? I'm confused!

there is definitely something odd! James married a Hendry, but it looks as thought his Mum was a Hendry going by that 1851?? :-S

id of really thought the marriage of james seniors parents jame and mary would of been before his birth to be honest i have mary as being from devonshire im very confused :-S

AustinQ

AustinQ Report 24 Oct 2015 20:08

If you note the baptism of James William- it gives mother as Susannah Ann- so, it is either the wrong James Young, or James senior married again (after the birth of James)?
