Occupation Interests / Re: Occupation - Boatman
« on: Friday 27 March 09 21:23 GMT (UK)  »
Hello all,

I am also looking for Boatmen, named Meredith, who were based at Stourport / Wolverhampton.

I have the marriage certificate of Richard Meredith to Elizabeth Cope on 1st. July 1839 at Dudley.

I have had some luck with tracing a few baptisms / burials on the Wolverhampton Archives site  but am very interested to know if it is possible to purchase a copy of the boat and canal registers mentioned recently on this list?

I would be very happy to reimburse all costs.

Thank you,

Jan.

Hi  Ann,

Thank you for your reply re: Fradley connections. Unfortunately, as I am new to this site, I am having trouble trying to contact you and i am being told that i need to make 3 posts before I can reply. I will therefore try again when I have made them. Thank you again. Jan

Hi everyone,

I have just found this wonderful site and would like to post my surname interests. They include PRICE, FRADLEY, HAMER, WALTERS , COPE and MEREDITH, and I am very happy to share information.

Unfortunately I have hit a brick wall with my Merediths. I know Richard Meredith , born c1816 married Elizabeth Cope in Dudley in 1839 and have found their children using the Wolverhampton Archives site. However I have not been able to link him with any other Meredith family and would appreciate any ideas.  I know that he died in 1866 and he only appears in1861 census as being from Hopton Bank, Salop.
 Children John, Sarah Jane, Francis, Charlotte and Harriet Meredith all married at Acton, near  Nantwich between 1872 and 1883.

Does anyone recognise this family?

Many thanks, Jan-P
