Hello Nora

Could this be him?

RG10/ 4244 Folio 77 Page 25

Barrow, Dalton, Lancs.

David Reece, 26, millman, born Brierley Hill, Staffs
Mary J., wife, 30, born Darlaston, Staffs
William, son, 19 (obviously something wrong there!), born Bramley, Staffs.

On later censuses he ends up in Workington, Cumberland. Apparently Brierley Hill is only three miles from Dudley.

Otherwise I can't see anyone else who fits the bill.

Hello, and thanks Miss Marple, The names are right , and the ages are not far out,but my David Reece ancestor ended up in Stoke, marrying for a second time as a widower in 1874 age 32, he is a very hard person to track down, but thanks for your help , I perhaps have the wrong first wife,regards Nora.
