Thanks again for your help,

Can you email ma copy of them please. You emailed me one before but I've not got it now, would like to print it for my file. Thanks

Hi,

I'm glad our information matches.

Now Solomon Bath was my gt gt gt grandfather his son Henry James Bath stayed in Wales when they travelled here, Solomon took family up to Staffordshire around 1869-71 I think. Jervis was obviously Henry James brother. Solomons wife Elizabeth was a Hoult before marriage. Her fathers name was William. I think the Mary Ann that married Francis may have been her mother. Mary was a Calladine before marriage. I think because of the traveller background they married ino each others families.

I have found calladines/Hoults/baths marrying

Michael Hoult is also Mary Ann's son he was with Solomon and Elizabeth on the 1861 census.

Hi,

I have been tracing my roots for a few years now and have hit a brick wall trying to find this family on 1841 census. i think they were travellers and maybe they didn't do the census.

William Holt/Hoult possibly born 1799C Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire cant be exact
his wife Mary Ann nee Calladine 1810 Nottinghamshire
their children Elizabeth 1831 Chesterfield
Charles 1833C Chesterfield
Jarvis 1833c Chesterfield
William 1837 Chesterfield
Then there is a big jump and the next child is Hannah born 1847 then Michael 1849

In 1851 i am able to find duaghter Elizabeth married to Solomon Bath and with them they have her brothers, Charles, Jarvis and William.  But can't find the rest of the family again. I know the mother hasnt died because i find her in Brecknock in 1861 travelling with son Charles.

Thanks
