The nearest that I can find for a burial for Joseph in the same grave yard is:

Broseley
15th June 1858
Joseph Lloyd of Jackfield, aged 63.

Was Joseph a boatman?

Add - if so Catherine may be sometimes called Keturah ??

From what info I’ve got the Lloyds were quite wealthy,and were involved in a lot of going concerns,public houses being one of them.
They initially came from wales.

The detail you have for Joseph is the same as what I have,apart from the month,you have June,and I have buried Jan,they could be the people I’m interested in.

Joseph & William should both be on the 1841 & 1851 censuses so have you checked for them?  Note you name 2 different Josephs so the one you say died 1865 should also be on the 1861 census

The Joseph that seems the closest match on the censuses is a boatman but bully seems to doubt that - replies #3 and 4.

The 1856 Post Office directory of Shropshire has the following listings for LLOYDs at Broseley:

Henry jnr, shopkeeper, Lloyd Head
Hiram, joiner and builder, High street
Joseph, barge owner, Calcutts
William, beer retailer, King street

There is also a Henry LLOYD is also mentioned "Royal Oak" and barge owner at Jackfield (just north of Broseley).

Looks like the same family, Maddy

I'll go back and check the censuses that I saw earlier.

Although ... there is a marriage announcement in Oct 1858 for Anne, eldest daughter of "the late Joseph Lloyd, barge owner of Jackfield"
09 October 1858 - Wellington Journal

So if the op's Joseph died in 1865, then the barge owner was probably the one who died in Jan 1858.  :-\

Baptism 
Broseley 12 July 1835
Elizabeth Lloyd, Father- Joseph  waterman . Mother - Catherine

It looks as if, maybe,  Keturah = Catherine

Post by: Gadget on Friday 02 December 22 00:13 GMT (UK)
I don't see Joseph, the waterman, on the 1861, so far.

PS or a death for him in 1865. Only the 1858 one.  The OP, confirms the date of Jan 1858
Title: Re: Lloyd’s of broseley
Post by: maddys52 on Friday 02 December 22 00:20 GMT (UK)
The Joseph LLOYD who died 1865 (registered at Shewsbury (6a/462) was aged 37.
Title: Re: Lloyd’s of broseley
Post by: Gadget on Friday 02 December 22 00:26 GMT (UK)
The Broseley parish record has him aged 63 in 1858

Now this is interesting

Baptism 
Broseley May 31 1830
William son of Joseph and Rebeccah, jackfield. Joseph - Waterman

I think the Keturah in 1841 might be Rebeccah - poor writing

..and

Baptism 
Broseley 28 Aug 1831
Ann daughter  of Joseph and Keturah, Broseley. Joseph - Waterman

This could be an explanation:

Quote
Keturah (F)> Rebecca (F)> Catherine (F)> Katern (F)>
Katern (female)
Variants:   Catherine (F) Katherine (F)

That's really interesting Gadget, I've never heard of Rebecca and Catherine being variations of the same name.

Looking for info on Catherine Lloyd who was buried April 1850 aged 51,and her husband Joseph who died 1865?
Others in the family are; Jane buried aug 1798, Elizabeth buried may 5 1815,aged 65, wife of George,Joseph buried jan 15 1858 aged 63 and William buried may 20 1859 aged 29,all at red church jackfield,broseley.
Thanks.

So I think bully was mistaken in thinking Catherine's husband died in 1865, looks more like he was the one in 1858, and her son William looks like the one buried in 1859.  :)

Elizabeth buried may 5 1815,aged 65, wife of George

There is a will for a George LLOYD of Boselely, barge owner dated 16 Dec 1811
https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/D7216496

Not sure if this is the same George LLOYD.

Address and age are correct for it being him.
