Thats the one. Thanks Reg. i was off on half a dozen other trails at the same time...silly me. I will amend original question... Gerri

I think the IGI has your answer........ ZILLAH <POOL> Female Birth: Christening: 09 JUL 1837 St Giles', Willenhall, Stafford, England Parents: Father: JOSEPH POOL Mother: JEMIMA Reg

Reg Your a little star! many thanks......but... Jemima and Grusnah? Oh! I give up! ...for now lol

My gut reaction was Susannah but...

If you look at the original census form and read the G as a long S then it could be susannah. Elaine.

Here's her death: Deaths Sep 1851 POOL Jamima Wolverhampton 17 23* Rose

There is a death for a Susanna in q3 of 1855 Wolverhampton 6b 229. Was Joseph married to Jemima, and Josiah to Susanna?

Thankyou for all your replies. I have tried all sorts of combinations to marry Elizabeth Pool (G.daughter b1845) into Grusnah and Josiah Family but cant! I looked for a marriage between a 'Pool' and a 'Cane'...nothing! So maybe she's from another branch....I will keep her on hold. I suspect this is her Family in 1851... Name: Elizabeth Pool Age: 7 Estimated birth year: abt 1844 Relation: Daughter Father's name: Charles Mother's name: Elizabeth Gender: Female Where born: Willenhall, Staffordshire, England Civil parish: Willenhall Ecclesiastical parish: Holy Trinity Town: Willenhall County/Island: Staffordshire Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: Disability: View image Registration district: Wolverhampton Sub-registration district: Willenhall ED, institution, or vessel: 2o Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 85 Household Members: Name Age Charles Pool 42 Chas Pool 11 Elizabeth Pool 36 Elizabeth Pool 7 Ephram Pool 1 Levi Pool 11 Norine Pool 5 Nosh Pool 9 NOSH? poor little chap lol ----------------------------- It's a shame they are all Lock/Key Smiths but Willenhall is just that.
