The birth I found on freeBMD, a wonderful website with more information being added every month. The death I found on ancestry, looking through the bmd indexes (indices?). Judi

The Thomas Holt in the census was a bricklayer's labourer so it probably isn't your family. Ozi.

Jet & I have been having a pm conversation. This request came out of it. Is this them in 1871? If so I'll work my way back. Name: Judith Harrison Age: 65 Estimated birth year: abt 1806 Relation: Wife Spouse's name: Samuel Gender: Female Where born: Bedworth, Warwickshire, England Civil parish: Tipton Ecclesiastical parish: St Paul County/Island: Staffordshire Country: England Street address: Occupation: Registration district: Dudley Sub-registration district: Tipton ED, institution, or vessel: 1 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 11 Household Members: Name Age Samuel Harrison 66 - master bargeman Judith Harrison 65 Eliza Harrison 8 - grandaughter Elizabeth Currell 19 - no relationship recorded. It's not known where she was born & she's a horse driver, obviously for the barges.

It makes sense that they both may have been married before. Obviously there is a grandaughter so at least Samuel must have had children. Ozi.
