Presumably Annie was a Lloyd too!

I think you have the right birth for Frederick as the age fits and Bridgnorth is not too far from W'ton.

Arthur could be the right one in 1895 if there is an Edward between 1892 & & 1895.

The William Leonard birth could be the Leonard in 1889 (or was that what you were thinking before).

It all seems to be fitting together. But where is William born around 1890? between Beatrice and Frederick?

I've viewed both records and the 1891 gives William's birth place as Delbury, Salop and the 1901 as Coaldale.

The birth for William Leonard has got to be the wrong one....Frederick was born in 1892!

Deb
Thanks for helping me out. I'm really stuck on this. Frederick was my grandfather whom my dad said was born in Wolverhampton. I have a copy of his death cert and now his marriage to Elsie Betsy Robinson in 1916. On the marriage cert it gives his address as 24 Coven St, Wolverhampton which matches the 1901 census address in Wolverhampton. On this census it gives William as his father (as per his marriage cert) & mother Ellen. William is down as being born at what I think may be Coalbrookdale but I cannot read it. Ellen from Stoke, Staffs. The places of birth for all the children are hard to read and it gives Fredericks birth as either Ranton, Salop or Neenton, Salop (can't read this either).

Ozi very kindly found the family as Palmes on the 1891 census, and the places of birth are different again...are they Salop (Shropshire) or Staffs??

What happened to the other children shown on 1891 census in 1901?

I've looked for Births, Deaths, marriages and am finding it difficult as they keep moving around and there are several candidates for each area.

Another thing..William's death. He is not shown as deceased on Frederick's marriage cert in 1916. Can't find a death either. Should be Wolverhampton, as they were living in W'ton on the 1901 census...or have they moved again and Frederick stayed in W'ton?

Lots of questions, but I need the answers....help!

OK. It's probably best to find the children's births first to determine where the family were at certain times.

Going with the 1891 that ozi found, here's the first birth.

Name: William Leonard Palmer
Year of Registration: 1889
Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
District: Cleobury Mortimer
County: Herefordshire, Shropshire, Worcestershire
Volume: 6a
Page: 575


Be back soon with more.

Here's Beatrice:

Name: Beatrice Palmer
Year of Registration: 1888
Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar
District: Cleobury Mortimer
County: Herefordshire, Shropshire, Worcestershire
Volume: 6a
Page: 590





And Frederick:


Having probs finding the right one for Frederick. There's one in 89 but it's too close to William's to be him.


There's this one. It seems to be the only one that fits age-wise but not sure about district:


Name: Frederick Palmer
Year of Registration: 1892
Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar
District: Bridgnorth
County: Shropshire
Volume: 6a
Page: 559




Maybe Arthur. Age is out a bit though:



Name: Arthur George Palmer
Year of Registration: 1895
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
District: Bridgnorth
County: Shropshire
Volume: 6a
Page: 589





BINGO!!!!!! You've found the right marrige ref. Violet was born a Lloyd before the marriage.




Name: Violet Mary M Lloyd
Year of Registration: 1886
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Cleobury Mortimer
County: Herefordshire, Shropshire, Worcestershire
Volume: 6a
Page: 673

So the marriage I found is the wrong one? 1887 and their first child Annie was born 1884.

Still can't read the place of Birth on both census'.


Having real problems tracing this family...marriage, 1881, Deaths, Marriages, Its hard to know what area to look in as the children seem to be born in different places to the 1901 and 1891 census.

Has anyone got any advice for me?

I searched for Beatrice b 1897 +/- 2 years, Shropshire. No surname.

Looking for Leonard & Violet now.

Ozi.

Thanks Ozibird, the second one looks like it...what did you put in the search to find it?

Update: No they're on 1901 as well. Probably related though.

I've found the marriage in 1887 Mar 1/4 Cleobury Mortimer. William Palmer & Ellen Lloyd.....another place to search!

1901 census, William Palmer age 45 at Coven Street, Wolverhampton, St Marys Parish.

With wife Ellen age 40, daug Beatrice age 13, William age 11, Frederick 10, Edward 6 and Arthur 4.

I can't find this family on the 1891 census so I checked where the children were born...several different places between 1888 and 1897! If they had William in Aston Bromley, Salop?? and Frederick in Heanton, Salop surely thats where their abode would be in 1891??.....Can't find them.

Also on the 1901 census, I can't read where William Palmer senior was born, I think it reads Coal**Dale (Coalbrookdale perhaps?)

And where is their marriage?...can't find that either...am I going mad? or do they not want to be found with all the moving around?

HELP...Please??
