Does anyone have any connection with Thomas Tuckley please? I believe he was born in around 1858 in Portobello, Wednesfield (at least that's what the 1861 census implies.
He married my widowed great grandmother, Mary Harrison, in 1883 and died in Derby (where he ran an off-licence) in 1921. Any information would be good. I believe they had a daughter Elizabeth Mary, born in 1892.

Good morning,
Firstly, I'm not connected, sorry.
But, in the 1891 & 1901 Census, Thomas seems to be a Railway goods guard. A daughter, Elizabeth M. aged 9 yrs is with them in 1901 as well as sons (most possibly) from a previous marriage.
Hope this helps somewhat . . . BonnieB

Lovely - thanks Ruby.
Although TT isn't a blood ancestor as such I'm very interested in him. My mother referred to him as "Grandad Tuckley" - being her grandmother's second husband. Unfortunately while my Mum was alive I wasn't into family history and now have no-one to ask. Isn't that often the case?

Well Godfrey,
I'm just doing a genealogy report for you in 10 generations and you'll see all the family's i've mentioned in it.
My family tree goes way back to my 10th g/grandfather in the early 1500s on my dads side. lol
I'll be emailing you shortly with gravestone pic's of the Tuckley's if you want??
-
Yes please Ruby.
Can't tell you how thrilled I am.
Thanks again
Godfrey
-
Ok i'll send them on also...just checking the report before i send it on :)
-
Godfrey, i'm emailing you now but i had to take the report to 7 generations as it was leading to much into other family member's but still enough to read :)
-
Godfrey,
On the report you'll see Abigail Tuckley b:1795 married to Joseph Duncombe, those are my 3rd g/grandparents and i'll send their gravestone pic over to you later.
Did you recieve the email??

Hi Ruby
I have a Squire family in Short Heath / New Invention and I am wondering if we may be connected.
John Squire (1870-1937) was my g-g-grandfather and his parents were James John Squire (1847-1915)and Charlotte Wilkinson (1848-1927). James' parents were John Squire and Lucy Tarbuck.
I'm sure I've got the name Tuckley as well but can't find it at the moment.
If you think we might have a connection I would be very grateful of any information you may have.
Thanks

Hi Helen,
That's the correct family of Squire's from Shortheath and my dads line the Duncombe's married into the Squire family visa versa.lol...as my dads line is from shortheath/willenhall.
I don't have John Squire 1870-1937 only Charlotte 1884, Ada 1889 and Louisa 1892.
I do have his father James 1848-1915 known as John and his wife Charlotte Wilkinson 1849-1927 and also their gravestone from the Holy Trinity Church, Shortheath.
Helen i go back with the Squire's to William Squire 1755c-1792c and his wife Rachel Ducombe 1752-1792 on that side of the tree but there's another line where i go back to William Squire 1690-1757.
Regards
Ruby

Hi
I don't have the name Duncombe in my tree but I've heard of the name in Willenhall.
I had looked for John and Charlotte's gravestone and couldn't find it but if it's Holy Trinity I had been told the wrong church - I will go for a walk to find it tomorrow! Do you remember where in the churchyard it is?
I would be interested to see or hear any more information you have.
Thanks for your help.
