Hi Derek Welcome to Rootchat.
You have a fabulous amount of information here of the Pearson family.
Just wondered what you would like from any of our members on this site?
Can you be more specific on what it is you are looking for?

I am researching Pearsons from Rugeley & Cheslyn Hay if that is any help?
I can sort the details out later just thought I would post a quick reply

Hi Derek
If we are not related and looking for these people do you require others
to confirm - looking for siblings, children, occupations, addresses, ages
confirmation of these marriages and births ???
We are here to help but we need some kind of guidance as to what
exactly you would like others to do with the information you have given?
regards Sandymc ;)

My Pearson family line goes back, definitely, to Henry Pearson born Great Wyrley (near Cheslyn Hay) around 1805 according to census. I have yet to find a definite birth record for him. Other than that he is, probably, the son of Henry Pearson 1778 - 1861 who married Ann Brockhouse on 13 Oct 1805. His father is possibly John Pearson of Cheslyn Hay. Until I can get some confirmation on Henry jr's birth I don't want to progress too far along that road just in case I am wrong.
The earliest Pearson baptism in the Cannock area seems to be Edward in 1773 (son of John & Ann Pearson) and the earliest burial is Thomas in 1747 & Dorothy (widow) in 1753. Earliest marriage is in 1765 John Pearson (collier) of Cheslyn Hay and Ann Lyons of Cheslyn Hay

Yup that's my Henry. He was originally a nailer by trade (as was Henry Senior his presumed father). Both he and his wife Elizabeth died within a week of each other Elizabeth on 6 Jan 1887 and Henry on 14 Jan 1887 both at Market st. Henry senior died on 6 Jan 1861 at Wyrley Bank, Cheslyn Hay. It would be interesting if their was a connection with your Pearsons. Lichfield holds a few Pearson wills in its records.

I find family search useful..glad to have found a match for Henry!! I have a copy of the will's of Joeseph Pearson Coal Master 1838, Oliver Pearson timber merchant 1837 and Thomas Pearson Coal Master..be happy to send them for to view!! I found a transciption of Joeseph's which makes easy reading..

Zen Rabbit,
we must have a few relatives in common because there's that many intermarriages round cheslyn hay and great wyrley. I take it your related to ellen pearson who married henry dace 20 may 1844? My grandmother was a dace and my grandfather a westwood. Are you a member of cheslyn hay family history society i am. I have been asked to help with the research enquiries. They have a website if your not a member take a look at www.cheslynhay.info. They have some useful cd's on there on the publications bit. The st mark's disc has been invaluable. i dare n't take a look at sometimes, i find more and more relations.

Thanks for all the interesting info. I am a member of Cheslyn Hay group.
Off out now but I will reply in more detail later

Hi
ive Researched the Pearson Family Of Cheslyn Hay and Henry Pearson Born Cir 1806 They No Baptism Record But Henry His Assumped Father Had an Assumped Brother Born Circ 1770 Like Henry As No Baptism Record by The Name John Pearson This John Names His First Two Sons John And Henry This Also The Same With Henry born 1778 So Im Almost Sure the Line Is Descending From John Pearson And Ann Lyons.
Regards
Andrew
