Hi
I am trying to find any Corbett's on the 1841/51 census living at Rochford Nr. Tenbury. I already have Edward & Mary Corbett living at Lane Cottage Rochford with Elizabeth Beddoe & John Beddoe and Edwards mother Elizabeth age 75 on the 1841 census.
Edward died before 1851 and Mary went back to her birth place Wellington by 1851.
I am wondering if someone would be able to spot any others for me.
Many thanks.
Lyn.
I have now found all the Corbett's I was looking for on F.M.P.

Hi Jessie M - I have just started to research my Corbett people and have a lot of Census Information. My Corbett people came from Hertford - Gt Homstead and settled later in Balsall Heath nr Birmingham. They were Diamond Glaziers.George son of William married Ann Denny,They had 8 children 4 girls,4 boys born between 1832 and 1850. Do we connect?
I would be glad to help if I can

Hi Viv
So far I haven't found any of my Corbett's in the area you are researching, I have got back to 1700 and they all came from Rochford, Nr. Tenbury, Worcestershire and then Wellington in Shropshire.
Regards
Lyn.

Hi Lynn - sorry we don't connect but good luck in your research.

Hi Jim1212.

Hi
My ancestors come from the Tenbury/Rochford area and I note that my GGGGrandfather is noted on the list - John from Tenbury, living at Stoke Bliss.
I have connections with Wellington, being born there myself.
Get in touch, we might be related.

Hi calderfields.
Nice to hear from you. I feel pretty sure that all the the Corbett's from the 1800's around Tenbury are related and in recent months I have been busy trying to make links between them all. The only Corbett that I can find that moved from Rochford to Wellington was Thomas Corbett born 1843 and of course his widowed mother Mary, who herself was born Wellington and had to return there (probably to claim parish relief) when her husband Edward Corbett died in Rochford. I would love to know if you have any other details linking Wellington to Rochford/Tenbury.
Regards
Lyn.

Hi Lyn
Thanks for your reply. My family came to Wellington by marriage only and in the 1950's. My ggggrandfather was married in Tenbury in 1787 (william) and I had ancestors in Rochford in 1720 to 1770. Prior to this my line came from Bockleton back to 1600. If any of yours are similar let me know, or contact the Corbett study group and Jean, who runs it, can check for a match from the records she holds. My line also branches off to Smethwick, Birmingham and Australia.
Best Wishes

Hi Jessie M,
I don't have any info on Corbetts, but noticed you have Bowen in your Shropshire names. Any chance they're the same Bowens as mine - Benjamin Bowen c.1852 Norbury Bishops Castle married Elizabeth Handley?
-
Hi cassiar.
I don't think I have the same Bowen family in my tree as you, my Benjamin was born about 1786 and they came from Clungunford which is not that far from Bishops Castle, so it is possible. I will have another look at my Bowens and if I do find a connection I will let you know.
Regards
Jessie.
