Find Ancestors

Hi Elizabeth Thank you for looking for Gillow Heath. Perhaps you could look in Biddulph for ancient Shufflebothams (over 60), namely Martha, and a married couple James and Mary. I would be very grateful. Thank you Bronwyn

DAVE: No, Newton Regis isn't listed sorry.

Hi Elizabeth Thank you very much for the kind offer. Could you please look for Henry and Harriet Taylor living at Church Street, Bilston. Thank you. Irene in NZ

Hi Suzanna, Sorry, I only have the 1841 Staffordshire census. You could start by looking for them on the 1901 census or looking for their marriage on the GRO index. Good luck!

Hi Irene, The only TAYLOR family on Church Street belongs to Montague and Elizabeth Taylor. Julie - that would make him minus 1 in 1841 ;) I'm sure someone around here will look on the 1851 for you though.

Bronwyn, still no luck with those names sorry.

Liz, The whole of Tipton took me a whole afternoon/evening last time. If you have an address I can have a go at finding it, but there's no index of any kind and the streets are often split up so it's difficult. Liz

Hello, Know u r busy but was wondering if you would be able to look up Emily Colclough for me. Born in 1838 in Wolstanton, staffs. Might be related to Sabine born in 1839. Anything would be great. Many thanks becky

RUTH, LIZ: Haven't I done those look ups before??

Hi Elizabeth Thankyou very much for looking Bronwyn

Thanks for the offer Elizabeth The family i am looking for is John Bott and his wife Sarah nee Ball, I believe they were in Tipton - at this time they had 2 children Jacob born cir 1840 and Sarah born cir 1837. If this is sufficent detail i would be most grateful for a look up ...thanks Nicola

Hi Elizabeth Thank you very much for the lookup. Hopefully this is a brother. Thanks for the help. It is very much appreciated. Irene in NZ

REBECCA: She's not in the township of Wolstanton, but if you give me a few days I'll check the rest of the parish. Got a busy week so can't do it in the next couple of days. Liz

I would appriciate info for some family members, I understand it might be difficult to find and if you cannot I will understand. anyway I have A William Buckley Millett b. 1817 his parents were Robert buckley Millett and sarah. the children were born and living in handsacre, armitage stafford. thanks Ronald I also found a Thomas Sheldon and elizabeth both would have been about 50 in 1841 they would have resided at burslem, stafford any info would be helpful in adding to my family tree... thanks

thanks for your very kind offer could you please look up william cook bn 1826 in walsall,staffs would really love to know who his parents were also john cooksey bn 1830 halesowen or west brom thanks very much for your time kelly

Hi I'm looking for a VERNON PEDLEY, in 1841 he would be about 15. Born in Wetley Rocks Staffordshire, (also spelled as Whetty or Whiteley, depending which census) . Could be living either there or Cheddleton, Staffordshire. Sorry but I don't know his parents details. Hopefully won't be too many Vernon Pedleys. Don't have a street name but Wetley Rocks is only very small now, must have been minute in 1841!! Same for Cheddleton. Also if you have the time, THOMAS HILL (b1821) of Leek, Staffordshire, possibly at this time married to ELIZABETH JERVISS but not sure. Thanks for looking, even if you don't find anything I'm very grateful. Sam

BECKY: Hi, I've been through the whole of the parish now but didn't find an Emily Colclough with the right age. I did find the Sabina you mentioned, but no Emily in that family, and I also found an "Emileh" (think that's what it says) aged 6. If either of those are of interest to you let me know - I've saved the details and images for now. Liz

Being new to the site, I sent this earlier today by the wrong route! Sorry for the repetition. You must be a saint to undertake all these searches! I would be very grateful it you could find information about Eli Allcock, who I believe was born in Stafford in 1831, making him about 10 years old in 1841. Thankyou in anticipation, Mai Orme
