Hi Inchworm
When was Henry Colver born and where? I'll see if I can find him
ricky

Henry Colver was born 1815 Earl Shilton. He was the brother of Joseph. I don't know anything about him. Would like to find him on any Census, esp. the 1841.
I think that their parents were Richard & Sarah.

You're right, it is very confusing.
There seem to be more Colver families all with similar names, at the same time, in the same area. It's a job matching who belongs to who.
The 1851 family that you found looks like mine as prob. Richard, the father could have died - but still not sure.
Thanks for the info anyway, I'll try and work it out.

Dear Inchworm
I think that you are trying to track down my Colver family heritage. I am related to Joseph Colver (wife Jane) through his son George (born 1850). George had two wives and 10 children! My Great-Grandfather is his fifth child, Frank, to his first wife Eliza. I am in the process to find out what happened to Frank's siblings. So far I have traced two of his brothers but their is the elder brother and his sister that I am having trouble getting to find.
Would you like more information?
Cheers, tomcatnik2

Hi
Just joined Rootschat. Colvers- still interested. I am the g/son of Ernest Colver(1892-1965), son of Ada E Colver, g/son of William(1835-1904)who was son of Joseph (1808-1887).Also Istill live in the area and am in touch with local history society. Glad to help if can
-
And I'm descended from Joseph's brother William (1811). Their parents were Thomas and Mary, and I have a fair amount of detail on all of their Colver descendants, but have never managed to pin down Thomas's parents.
Contact me of you want any more info.
Cheers
Mac
