Hi,

Can anyone help with this Mayer side?
I Have an Abel Mayer b.ca.1844 where? married an Elizabeth Cope 1863 St.John Burslem, he died ca.1866 maybe Kidsgrove.  On IGI it shows Abel's father as Elijah, but can't find a marriage or children.

Elizabeth's parents William Cope ca.1800 and Sarah Mayer ca.1811 (no other details), married 1835 Wolstanton.

Elizabeth married a Joseph Smith (my side) no children in either marriage found.

Name Age
Elizah Mayer 33
Eliza Mayer 32
Samuel Hancock 13
Josiah N Mayer 11
Carin Mayer 10
Abel Mayer 6
Enoch Mayer 4
James Mayer 1

Taken from the 1851 Elijah spelt wrongly! I think "Carin" is supposed to be Cain.

Looks like Elijah was born 1812 and there is a death Wolstanton 1879.
Elijah and family living at Williamson Street, tunstall and occupation Blacksmith.
On the 1851 and 61 census living with Abel.
Abel and Elizabeth marriage 6b 129 1863 Wolstanton district

Any good?

Kind Regards,
Patricia

Hi caerfai,

Thanks for the info. thought they may have been in Burslem, will have to go back to Wolstanton 1851.

Will contact Nita.

Okay. I think it gets confusing when Wolstanton is mentioned but the district covers Tunstall etc.

There can't be too many Cain and Abels out there!!!

Kind regards,
Patricia

This is a long shot but is anyone still looking at this thread.  I have been trying to find a connection to my family for years, but without luck, even on this website.
