Census Lookup Request 1851/1861 Northamptonshire
« on: Monday 27 September 04 10:28 BST (UK) »
I was wondering if anyone would have or could do a lookup request to assist me please of the 1851 and 1861 census

The area I am interested in is Irchester, Northamptonshire and the name is WALDING/WALDEN

Head of household would be

John WALDING/WALDEN born 1818 in Irchester Northants - Ag Lab

Wife is Susannah WALDING/WALDEN born 1818 Grafton Underwood, Northants.

Children I am aware of are Mary and John both born Irchester but I wondering if there are more!

in 1871 they resided Main Street Irchester
in 1881 they resided Coopers Yard Irchester

Any assistance given would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards

I am a member of the same family and will let you have the census and other details when I can locate them. In the meantime I hope the following is of interest. (All is subject to checking with original sources.)

Wellingborough All Hallows 350p/660  Marriages 1813 - 37
Joseph Walding lab.  and Mary Gooding of Doddington sp. 27 Oct 1816

From the 1851 census Joseph's place of birth was given as Clipston, Northants.
and his age as 50.
Mary's place of birth was Doddington, Northants, and she was 50.

BT's for Clipston give a baptism for Joseph Walden 28 July 1793 but no parentage appears to have been recorded so I need to check the original record. However all other 'Walden' children around that time were children of  Joseph and Elizabeth or less possibly John and Susannah. I have found no marriage dates for either but have assumed that Joseph and Elizabeth were his parents.

Joseph was buried 9 Nov 1886 at Irchester and Mary possibly on 21 Mar 1867.

Children of Joseph and Elizabeth

Ann bapt. 8 Dec 1785
John bapt 20 May 1787
Ann  bapt  19 Jan 1789
William bapt  22 Feb 1791
Joseph bapt 28 July 1793
Elizabeth bapt 9 Feb 1795
? Thomas? born abt 1800

Children of Joseph and Mary

John  bap. 2 Aug 1818  buried 3 June1891
Hannah  bap.13 Aug 1820
Jonas born abt 1823
Lucy  born abt 1825
Levi  born abt 1827
Jeffery  born abt 1829
?Elizabeth? circa 1816

Wellingborough All Hallows Marriages 1837 - 1852 P234 No 486
13 Oct 1851 Jonas Walpole fa  bach of Irchester  father Joseph Walden  labr
                     Rebecca Bailey fa spin. of Wellingborough Mill. father John B. Labr.

Jonas was therefore  a younger brother of John and Susannah was the older sister of Rebecca. (She was 33. in 1851) When both Jonas and Rebecca died of  ? scarlet fever? within a short time of each other (deaths 11 Apr 1873 and 6 Oct 1873) leaving several children, the two youngest Arthur, my grandfather, and his  brother, Samuel Henry, were brought up by John and Susannah.
 
Children of John and Susannah
 
Mary Ann bapt 5 Sept 1841
Joseph bapt 30 Apr 1842
Rebecca bapt 1 June 1844
Fanny (Frances?) born 1848
John bapt 5 Sep 1851
Samuel bapt 10 Jun 1855
?Charles Edward?

All events took place at Irchester unless otherwise stated

Incidentally do you have any family photographs as I have one of an unknown woman whom I suspect could be Susannah and I would like confirmation one way or the other.

Hi

How wonderful of you to reply.

Whilst I thank you for the information re the early Walding/Walden's it is with particular interest that I follow the Waldiing/Walden's from when they married the BAILEY sisters.

Thank you by the way, for since my post I had come to believe that two brothers married two sisters and you just confirmed that for me :-)

My Great Great Grandfather was the eldest brother to the two BAILEY sisters and he came to South Australia.

I am delighted to connect with another family member and hope you will be happy to connect with a member of your Great Grandmothers family.


Kind regards
