Northamptonshire Lookup Requests / Re: Butler lookup in Marston St. Lawrence/Thenford

Many thanks for the information about Phoebe Butler.  I had already found Elam Butler and his wife Elizabeth.  Another brick in this particular wall removed.  Much appreciated.

My wife's 3rd great grandmother is Phoebe Hannah Butler b abt 1795 Thenford, Northamptonshire.  Phoebe married James Smith on 19 October 1819 in Dallington, Northamptonshire.  My wife's 2nd great grandfather is William Butler Smith b 10 Jun 1831.

Phoebe is one of my brick walls - I've been unable to find details of Phoebe's parents but I can see a number of Butlers in Thenford in the census records.  Have you come across Phoebe in your travels through the Thenford records?

Any help would be appreciated.

Bev32...

noticed that you said you were related to the Davis/Davies family of Balloon Court, Nottingham.  I'm helping a friend and would be very interested if you know anything about this Davis family lodging in Balloon Court with Joseph and Elizabeth Stocks at the time of the 1851 census.

William Davis 31  Nottingham
Eliza Davis 29 Wales (British Subject) - I think her maiden name is Eliza Hanson or maybe Orson
Fanny Davis 8 Nottingham
Orson/Orston Davis 5 months, Nottingham

Eliza Hanson had a brother James Hanson b abt 1824 Cheltenham - James turns up on the 1881 census with Caroline (maiden name Garner, former married name Robinson) in Hucknall Torkard, Nottinghamshire.  James's occupation  is photographer.

I think the family emigrated to the USA at some point.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Mark
