Hi Sylvia

Have got them in 1871 but lose them in 1881 .. thanks anyway.

I had so many problems but Mucklestone is a parish with about 6 hamlets in and half of it is in Shropshire and the other half in Staffordshire .. this confused
me for ages !!

Melanie

I know you said you had the 1871 census, but I put it up for reference, both for myself and for others ... it's easier to refer back to here to doublecheck when searching on ancestry than having to keep re-finding the 1871 census on there .

Plus, I gave all the birth years and other information which could possibly be of help.
