My person is Sarah Owen, born 1867 - I have ordered her birth cert. The reason I think it is the Emma rather than the Eliza is because we know that she had a brother who was born 1879/80. Fingers crossed. Thans for all your help. tom. |

Looking on the 1851 census, living next door to Emma Edge is a THOMAS OWEN, born c1841 Dawley. Then in 1861, there is this fmaily: View Record Elizabeth Edge abt 1863 Shifnal, Shropshire, England Wife's Daur Wombridge Shropshire View Record Albert Owen abt 1871 Wombridge, Shropshire, England Son Wombridge Shropshire View Record Eliza Owen abt 1841 Shifnal, Shropshire, England Wife Wombridge Shropshire View Record Thomas Owen abt 1841 Dawley, Shropshire, England Head Wombridge Shropshire The enumerator could have put Eliza instead of Emma couldn't he? |

Hi Alan, I have seen that and think that they are Emma's brother in law and his family. |

Thanks for looking - I can't see them either, can anybody find them? Lesley, I am hoping that her husband is called Thomas and they also have a daughter Sarah, born c1867. |

Hi, I am trying to find this family in 1871, if anyone can help I would be very grateful. The 1881 is below, but the family should be OWEN, not Owin. Thanks, Tom |
