I think you are right. James and Eliza went on to have a daughter - Ursula in 1853. I had wondered about John Corner, but couldn't be sure either way. Thank you.

I am trying to find the area where James Martin a carpenter, and his family lived. James and his wife Eliza were married in Sithney church in 1837. Their first 4 children were baptised in Helston between 1838 and 1846 and the address was given as either St Johns or Anstratea. I have visited Sithney several times, but have drawn a blank as to the exact area they would have lived in. Does anyone know if either of these places still exists, or where they were? Thanks, Louise.

There is a William Moody with a son William b 1840, both are house decorators living in Tower Hamlets

Are you referring to the 1861 census?  Is this the same family in 1851?

Son William is 11 and father William is a paperhanger

I have just found this William in 1871 living with his parents and still working as a paperhanger. So they are definitely two different people.

I’m trying to find William Moody in the1851 and 1861 census.

In 1871 he is listed as William Moodey b 1841 St Luke, Middlesex, Fish Dealer. He is living with his wife and children in Memel Street, St Luke.

William married Mary Ann Hodges a widow in 1864, at the time he was a Shopman and was living at 5 Kings Court.  His father is listed as William Moody a Painter.
In 1881 Mary Ann is a widow living with their children at 34, Mitchell Street, St Luke.

There is a William Moody with a son William b 1840, both are house decorators living in Tower Hamlets, but this William goes on to marry a Caroline Hodgson in 1879, so cannot be him.

Can anyone help please?
