Staffordshire / Missing Streets in Burslem 1861
« on: Tuesday 06 August 24 23:24 BST (UK)  »
I am hoping that a member here can help me to identify on a map where my  great grandparents lived at the time of 1861 census
According to the 1861 census William and Emma James,  (Staffordshire, Burslem, Al, District 12) their address was 'Club Buildings' On the first page of the census 'Club Buildings were listed after what I think were 'Amicable Building' On an old map I have located 'Amicable Building' but not 'the Club Building".
A question on a FB site that I follow provided me with a newspaper clip that identifies 'Club Buildings' as being in Malkin Street, I can find no mention of a street by this name.

Thanks

Hello,
It is a bit of a leap and is it too much of a coincidence that I have a Kate (Catherine) i my Perritt/Pirrett Tree
Catherine Maria Dwyer
1860–1929, BIRTH 31/08/1860 • CANNING TOWN, LONDON, England
DEATH JUL-AUG-SEP 1929 • West Ham, Essex, England

She was the sister of my great grandmother who's parents were Andrew Dryer and Susan Crocker

Stranger things have happened

Norfolk / Re: Ephraim Harvey from Wilby

Hi Eppingjewish,
In reading all the chats i don't think your Harriet is directly related to my Ephriam though there could be a link further back.
Ephraim's parents were James Harvey and Susannah Lucas. James Harvey Died in November 1841 at about 39, after the death of James she remarried to Thomas Aldous in 1848.Considering her age at this marriage would be almost 50 I don't think there were any children. Susannah died 7 July 1874.
Ephriam did have a sister 'Hariot' but she was born20 Dec 1838.
James and Susannah are so far missing from the 1841 census which was conducted in June of that year.
James Parents were William Harvey and (probably)  Judith Musk, married 14 March 1802. Their children were James, Charity, Edward, Susan Letice, Nathan and William.
We think that William parents were Samuel Harvey and Margaret Pettit who married in Rishangles 6 April 1772.
As to the Jewish connection, it is still unproven, though the feeling is that there is Romany/Jewish ancestry in there somewhere. My DNA states European Jewish < 1%.

to Eppingjewish   nicky,
I'll look into the Jewish connection. It is ages since I accessed my own info about him.
You say you are a descendant of a Harriet Harvey,do you know who her parents or siblings were?

to  amondg, I did not not know about the baptisms you mentioned. Where did you find the information? Are you descended from any of them?

Looking forward to reading your replies

I wonder if this site is the source of that quote?

Whoever said it first it certainly is worth sharing. Thanks

K,
Thank you for all you help.
That is very interesting.
I will have to pull out a pen and paper to try to make sense of it all.

Thanks Annette,
That certainly is very useful information.
I am constantly amazed at the very helpful folks who are a part of the online genealogy community. I hope that one day I can play it forward and repay the favour.

Regards
