Hi Derek, thanks for all your interest. I really appreciate your help. My account with Ancestry is under the name of anitacmorris1 and my email addy is (*) I know that many of the surgeons in the 1700 were mainly barbers and not necessarily wealthy, however the Kidderminster link seems to be connected with the carpet and upholstering industry.
Thanks once again.
Regards

 Anita

Thank you so much Derek, that sounds brilliant, mind you a surgeon sounds a bit upmarket for my lot I think. It is typical that his family is elusive....it seems the Webbs always are!!!!!!

Thank you Derek, I misread your last post....that's what happens when I get excited about new information. I have added that info to my tree. I am not on Ancestry anymore as I can't afford it now, pensions don't stretch to such luxuries these days but I would love to hear form you again if anything turns up.

Hi Derek, I wonder which Thomas this is as James' father was at least 37 in the 1851 census and their son Thomas was eight years old

Yes this is my lot Derek and I have them back to the 1841 census with James as a 4yr old..parents Thomas and Mary.

I have James married to Martha Hall Nov 25th 1861.

Charles is my grandfather and he married Leah Whitehouse 21st Feb 1897. We believe they had four children and then he left Leah and came to Sheffield with my grandmother Ellen Louisa Felton nee Eldridge...she was also married with  four children and she left them with her husband He divorced her in 1921. My grandparents couldn't marry until Leah died in 1935...my dad was 18yrs old then. We never knew anything about it at all until I started FH research.

Hello Derek, thanks for replying, after five years of chasing the Stroud Webbs I have discovered that I am looking at the WRONG family, to say I am devastated is an understatement and it was down to the fact that my Charles from Kidderminster married a Stroud woman ....he was born in the same year as the Stroud Charles and both had a James as a father born in the same year!!!!!!! Disaster. I am now in pursuit of the Kidderminster Webbs.

Hello Alison, thanks for replying.

I have managed to find quite a few of the family now and I am now working hard on the tree.

I know there are still family still in the Kidderminster area and I would love to find them but that is probably for the future.

Thanks once again for your reply.

Regards
Anita.

Worcestershire / Webb family
« on: Sunday 14 October 12 15:52 BST (UK)  »
Hello everyone and after years of researching the totally wrong family I have just discovered that my Webb family came from Kidderminster or thereabouts. My Grandfather was Charles Webb  son of James Webb who was a Carpet Planer (I have this info from Charles marriage cert) I understand Charles' first wife was Leah and they had four children.

I believe Charles left Leah and came to Sheffield with Ellen Louisa Felton, the lady who was to become my grandmother. They eventually married in 1936. Ellen Louisa's husband had divorced her in 1920.

I have just started re-researching this family .....hopefully the correct one this time. If anyone has any info on this them I would be more than happy to receive it. I have found them in 1911 census under the name of Weble but have yet to look further back

Hello Mxmar0, if you need anything looking up in the Sheffield Archives or Library I am happy to do that for you, I go into the Town centre fairly regularly and I would be willing to call in. The records of Nether Chapel are at the Archives I think. If you google Nether Chapel Sheffield there is quite a bit of info there.
