replied on: 3/2/2005 6:54:11 PM A bit of a genealogical enquiry, but my original enquirer has updated me with names etc. If anyone can assist, please let me know or update on here. "I have read the interesting notes in your ChatArea site and I can shed a little more light on my original enquiry. My 2x great grandfather, Charles Hames, was living at Workhouse Yard in the 1871 census, working as a colliery labourer, aged 60, with his wife, Mary (nee Fletcher), daughter of George and Jane Fletcher, baptised at the Parish Church, West Hallam by Rector, John Morewood, 17 October 1813. Charles with his brother, Joseph, living in Jessop Row, Heanor, were both born in Hulland Ward, Derbyshire, of parents, John and Mary Hames, who married at Willington Church in 1802, Mary(Yeomans) from Marston on Dove, John of Broughton. Sorry if I overwhelm you with names, but it illustrates the difficulty that one can encounter, when people were migrating between censuses, apparently for economic reasons, for they were mainly of agricultural stock." |
