Post by: sandy35 on Wednesday 28 July 21 12:22 BST (UK)

Help required finding out about this man prior 1861 when he owned the The Shop in Shelsley with his sister Eliza.From his marriage certificate his father was Thomas 1793 and mother Elizabeth ?

Also interested in Wall's from Martley Hillside up to the present day.

Other interest's are Eaton,Gould,Glover and Bunce.

The 1851 entry for Eliza has a Thomas Wall the same age as John would be?  Could he be John incorrectly entered by the enumerator?

John shows birthplace as Martley in 1861 but Hillhampton in 1871 & 1881

If he is the 1851 entry - birthplace shown as Martley

This is the problem i have are Thomas and John the same person.John married Fanny Glover in 1866.I just can't find his mother Elizabeths surname.

Elizabeth was from Shropshire so they may have married there.
