Hi Rose I shall have to rethink this, I know a reliable source told me he was born in Oxford, but I shall go back to my records and come back to this later. Thanks for your time and patience. Regards Diane |

Diane, The 1841 doesn't list birth places. There's just a Yes or No as to whether they were born in the county. Rose |

'''The 'Where Born' column only asked two questions - 1) whether born in same county, and 2) whether born in Scotland, Ireland, or Foreign Parts. Possible answers and abbreviations to question #1 include: Yes (Y), No, (N), or Not Known (NK). For question #2, the following abbreviations were used: Scotland (S), Ireland (I), and Foreign Parts (F).'' Rose |

Perhaps Ann died and James remarried as there's a big gap with the children: 1851 England Census about James Watts Name: James Watts Age: 38 Estimated birth year: abt 1813 Relation: Head Spouse's name: Sarah Gender: Male Where born: Hillingdon Civil parish: St Marylebone Ecclesiastical parish: All Souls County/Island: Middlesex Country: England Registration district: Marylebone Sub-registration district: Cavendish Square ED, institution, or vessel: 7 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 231 Household Members: Name Age Charles Everard 20 Charles Watts 2 Elizabeth Watts 14 James Watts 38 Jane Watts 16 Rebecca Watts 4 Sarah Watts 38 No occupation is listed but he's an Ostler in 1861.

Can anyone please help me find James and Ann Watts. I have them on 1841 but then I lose them after that. James was a farrier born 1811 in Oxford, Ann was born 1814. In 1841 the family are living in Marylebone, London with daughter Jane and son George. Can anyone please find them afterwards. I would be grateful for any help. Regards Diane |
