SKELCY/SKELCHER Surname
« on: Monday 06 September 04 20:49 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have a Skelcy/Skelcher in their family tree?

Sarah Skelcy married John Dumbleton in 1840.  Her father's name was William- a labourer.    I'm trying to find out when she was born, mother's name, siblings etc.


Any information would be brill!!

Thanks

hi
do you have the 1851 census for John and Sarah Dumbleton? Or do you have the marriage cert for them to say where they were living?Let me know and I will look them up on 1851.

Hi Nicky

Thanks for the lookup offer but I'm not sure where they were living in 1851 as they were married in Birmingham.  Any help would be appreciated.

Found this in 1851 census Debbie could it b them?

HO107/2076 Folio 445 Page 15 FHL Film 0087345
Shipton on Stour
Brailes Shipton on Stour Warwickshire

John Dumbleton Head 42 b Brailes Warwickshire Ag Labourer
Sarah Dumbleton Wife 32 b Leamington Warwickshire
Joseph Dumbleton Son 9 b Brailes Warwickshire Farmers Plow Boy
Maryann Dumbleton Dau 6 b Brailes Warwickshire Scholar
William Dumbleton son 3 b Brailes Warwickshire

The only Skelcy in the 51 census is Thomas a 66 year old Widower born and living in Cubbington Warwickshire he is a Ag Farm Labourer

Looks like this one probably connects with the above one
Sarah Skelcey is a 25 year old house servant b in Cubbington living with Samuel and Charlotte Heath a Farmer of 260 acres Frankton Rugby Warwickshire

tried anything I can think of for name and couldnt find any more. There r other Dumbletons in Brailes if u think it is the right family. There is a William could b a brother. There is an Elizabeth 63 Pauper b and living in Brailes who is a Widow 36 year old son Michel with her. If u want any details on any of these just let me know.
