Wiltshire / Henry and Robert Cove
« on: Saturday 03 October 15 17:40 BST (UK) »
Hi, can anyone help?
My great times 3 grandfather, according to the 1851 census, was a farmer living ar Worthy Hill Farm, Charlton. He employed 5 workers and 2 servants, but later that year he passed away and his wife died 7 years later. My question is, what happened to his son Robert? In the 1851 census he and his wife are living at the farm with his parents, yet according to the 1861 census they are living with her parents in a house in Hasleton, Glos. Did he take on the farm after the death of his father and if so what went wrong, in order for him to be living as a labourer 10 years later? Robert was the eldest child.

Hi,
Sorry for the delay in responding, have only just found your post. I too am a descendant of Joshua, through his son Edward and Grandaughter Elizabeth who married John Cove. In effect Joshua was my gx3 grandfather. I do have some history of the Stevens family, mainly dates and of course I have seen the information about the swing riots. One area I can't seem to progress is what happened to Joshua's older brother Robert after his pardon in 1836, Any ideas?

Hello Valda,
Thanks for this, I would suggest that this may well be my William as his wife Ellen died in Battersea whilst living with her sister. It certainly seems to fit especially with regard to dates, any idea what H.E.I.C.S. means? Is there any way I can get a copy of this magazine?

Thanks to all of you for your help, unfortunately all the information you have provided I am in possession of. The two London deaths are not my William, I have looked in the Scottish records however they are very sparse as many deaths were not recorded before 1855, certainly I can find no record of him in Sutherland where his family were living. I will do a bit more digging on Murdoch, but it is really William I'm trying to find.

London and Middlesex / William MacLeod

I am trying to trace William MacLeod who was General Merchant, trading as MacLeod & Co in Coleman Street, London in 1841. He was registered bankrupt in 1842/3 and I can find no further information on him from that point. I have a copy of a letter from his wife Ellen to Mountstuart Elphinstone dated 1850, which indicates that she is a widow but living in Chelsea at the time. William was born in Scotland and had 3 brothers, including the Rev. Alexander MacLeod of Uig, and spent a considerable part of his life working as a civil servant in Bombay, as private secretary to Elphinstone. He returned to England and set up as a General merchant in partnership with a Lewis Houston and they had property in Liverpool and London. I have searched for death records for William, however the only 2 that I can find in London are not this William. Anybody Help??
