Willow,

Ernest, George and James are on CWGC Web Site (http://www.cwgc.org/cwgcinternet/search.aspx) Edward is the only one of the four named in the link that isn't there.

Your dates for the children of William, brother of Elizabeth need checking I think, this is my information on William Colley:

Wife - Eliza Hooper - Married 12.7.1847  Claines Worcester
Children I know  as follows:
Christopher Colley Born 1849
Harriet Colley born 1851
Joseph Colley Born 1853
Edwin Colley Born 1855
Phoebe Colley Born 1858
Alice Colley Born 1860
William Henry Colley Born 1867 Died 1868
Thomas Colley Born 1847 Died at birth
Charlotte Colley Born 1865 Died at birth

I have Eliza Colley as a widow in 1871, I think she was a Pauper in a workhouse but again I can't read my own writing!!but her occupation is Gloveress which is as previous census information in 1851 & 1861.

Are your dates for William Colley's sons too late? Maybe it's me?

Cheers

And I have just found

Ada Colley b 1869 daughter of Charles b 1839
married William George Carter b 1866 in 1893 in Droitwich

In 1901 they were in Colwick, Nottingham

George Carter aged 35 b Lamgaen, Worcs Railway Signalman (think this should read Longden?)
Ada aged 32 b Siheton, Worcs (This should read Tibberton - have checked on census)
Jais Ivy Grace aged 1 b Arnold, Nottinghamshire (have checked it is actually Iris b 1899)

Willow,

Good find!!, Jane was Edward Colley's first wife, to my knowledge they had 2 sons, John b 1812 Tibberton & William b 1821 Tibberton, William died in the same year as his birth, there may be others but I don't know. I have John Colley's spouse and kids if you are interested drop me a line and I will give you what I have.(I also have all Edward & Elizabeth's children and spouses)

Elizabeth Davis was  his second wife.

If you can find anything on Jane's death or any further information on Edward Colley that would be great because I am now struggling, I need to get to Worcester for the archives but I don't get time!!

Regards
DTR
