I am trying to find out more about my 4x great grandfather Michael Kendrick (born c1795, died 21 Feb 1891 in Wednesbury).

I think perhaps your reference to Michael living until 1891 has confused us! The children you mention are in the 1841 Census with Sarah as the head of the family but she is a widow!

Could you please clarify matters for us.

Regards

Ivan

Hiya Marcus

Off the Wolverhampton Archives site http://www.wolverhamptonhistory.org.uk/resources/familyhistory the witnesses at Michael Kendrick and Sarah Chants wedding were a Sarah Bennet and a Thomas Riddo

But the thing that caught my eye was a marriage 12.1.1790 of a Phineas Kendrick to a Hannah Chillingworth with witnesses Ann Clark and Michael Kendrick - could he be named after his grandfather and this is a relative?

Just to clarify Phineas (bap 20.3.1774) and Michael (bap 16.6.1770) are probably brothers. Parents are Henry and Elizabeth both baptised Willenhall

Ok lets get this sorted. I have spent a lot of time on this and worked with someone from One Name Studies. Here it is.

My ancestor Michael Kendrick  b. 1789 in Wednesbury mar Sarah Haddock b. 1793 they married in 1811. Michael was a COACHBUILDER.

The other Michael b 1795 Wednesbury mar Sarah Chant this Michael was a blacksmith.

Michael the Coachbuilder died 21st February 1841 (death cert). His father was Samuel Kendrick and his mother was Elizabeth Muckley.

I know the children of both Michael's.

By the way Sarah died in 1850
