I have tried on and off to find those children with William and Ann but no luck.
-
Only a thought - the marriage (Civil in Stoke) is between William Shaw and Ann Brunt. 1901 and 1911 census entries say that Ann is Ann E and Ann Elizabeth :-\
-
Yes, I have my reservations about that marriage. There are a few William/Ann sightings but seem to fit.
1901 must be them because of the grandchildren.

They are the children of Jonathan SHAW and Selina BRUNT.
Debra :)

That’s why they don’t match up :)
Thanks Debra.

Hi, thank you Mckha489, heywood, BumbleB and Dundee, all for looking up for me, the births are not William and Ann Elizabeth's children mentioned ? Ann Elizabeth age is still 70 yrs old in 1901 as in 1911 also, gets more confusing,
Jaz
-
There is a marriage 1862 James Shaw and Annie E Tipper, Cheadle St Giles.
1871 2873/66/6
James and Ann Elizabeth are living in Fenton with 4 children.
-
Hi heywood, thank you, what census year when they are with the with the four children,

James and Ann family here in 1881
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:Q27V-XG4N
1891
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:WSDQ-ZZM
But no idea if they are the right family
-
Have found a William and Ann in the right area but this means a) that Ann's age latterly is wrong, b) years married 1911 should be 62 (not 52) and c) second name of Elizabeth not used before 1901?
However, they appear to have had 12 children, 3 of whom died, all registered Stoke on Trent:
Annie birth Dec.1849
Thomas birth Dec.1851
Mary birth Dec.1853
Rachel birth Dec.1855
Eliza birth Dec.1857
Ellen birth Sept.1859
William birth Dec.1861
Charlotte birth Jun.1864, died March 1866
Charlotte birth Mar.1866, died 1869
Sarah Jane birth Sept.1867
Dorothy birth Mar.1869, died 1869
Julia birth Jun.1870
All show mmn as Robinson - William Shaw married Ann Robinson 17/6/1849 Stone, Staffordshire and all children shown born Longton, Staffordshire.
Looks like grandson Robert bc.1895 was illegitimate - Robert Machin Shaw birth Mar.1896 Stoke on Trent.

Is that the one who is the Publican?
I saw a family earlier but thought he was the wrong occupation :-\
-
Just realised another reason why I doubted that William and Ann, although the number of children fit, is because he died in 1891 and the two grandchildren, Robert and Thomas are living with grandparents, William and Ann in 1901. :-\
-
Thank you Annette7,
are those William and Ann Elizabeth Shaw's children listed from 1849 to 1870, where does the Publican come in to it all, is he Robert and Thomas Shaw's father ? i am getting confused now,
Jaz
-
Jaz,
I don’t think it is yet clear who are the right people :-\
Is your connection to Robert or Thomas? If so, what information do you have?
Heywood
-
Hi heywood,
Well i think if it is the right Robert M Shaw, the connection is with him, but that is vague and sketchy as time as gone by, as no sight of him is recorded unless he changed his name, or i maybe barking up the wrong tree again,
Jaz
-
Is yours Robert M or just Robert?
Robert Machin Shaw was registered March 1896
1901 he is 6yrs and 1911 he is 16 yrs which would ‘t quite work out, would it?
As his mmn is Shaw, perhaps his father is Machin. He is shown b Bucknall.
Tom/Tomas (as1911) is born Burton in 1901 and Bucknall in 1911.
I can’t see a birth for him.
I suppose they might not be brothers but cousins :-\
-
Hi heywood,
Thank you and i think that are probably right it is not match for my Robert M Shaw, so near yet so far, back to the drawing board again, i seem to be forever on the wrong track, right area i was told, just wrong family once again, thank you,
Jaz
-
It could be - he might have picked up the M again and age might be legible :)
Where do you have him?
Did he marry?
-
Hi heywood,
I tried before on here to find him, alas no luck, he married in Wales twice, his age given as 23yrs on both marriages even though they were five years apart, father was given as Robert, i cannot find him after anywhere, his wife then remarried, his father's was given as Robert , there was another family living close by from the area of Stafford in Wales i was told they were related and cousins, although no relative knows of this Robert Mitchel Shaw or where he went to, when i saw Robert Machin i was in hope that he was the one, and maybe the name was misspelt, given the accents are different, he named one of his sons Thomas, seems i am clutching at straws,
Jaz
-
You could get that birth certificate to see who the parents are, I suppose.
I looked at this thread where you posted re the families in Wales
https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=266516.9
That William - married to Annie Elizabeth (Jeffries) was the son of the James and Ann Elizabeth (Tipper) who I posted about earlier.
-
Have you checked 1939 register?
I see on free check that there is a Robert M Shaw b 1896 in Glamorganshire?
I meant to say earlier that he may have invented a father’s name for his marriage.
-
Hi heywood,
Yes the info was passed on to me, he is single living in the Rhondda Valley and lodging with a Parson family, no place of his birth shown, his occupation was colliery hewer which also ties in with his two marriages occupation, i also though he may have made up his fathers name too, as on one marriage certificate his fathers is Robert then on the other it is same as his name,
Jaz
-
I think the birth varies again in 1939 but people aren’t always quite truthful :)
I can’t find a baptism for Robert Machin but it might be worth following him up with his birth certificate -just to identify the family.
-
I think it is the only one option at the moment, to solve anything,
thank you so much for your help,
Jaz
