If you do obtain the marriage certificate for Thomas BUDD and Esther KNIBB, could you please share with me her father's name?  She had first married William KNIBB c1832 I would guess.

Do you have her as dying 04qtr1884 Walsall District?  She was still with Thomas on the 1871 census (indexed as RUDD at ancestry) and a widow in 1881 at Elford.  She was born at Condicote but quite when is hard to tell because her age in census returns seems to vary somewhat.

I haven't picked up Thomas' death either.

I think I have now found Esther's baptism as HOLTOM on 29th March 1809 at Condicote to a William and Mary which fits with a William KNIBB/Esther HOLTHAM marriage at Lighthorne on 24th June 1828.

Dear Jeannie

I wish I'd seen your Rootschat postings earlier as I could have saved you a load of time. Thomas MASON & Patience BUDD were two of my great grandparents and I researched the Budds and the Masons over twentyfive years ago. My family database contains well over 96,000 people. I was born in Oxfordshire to Frederick Norman HAZELL and Florence Victoria MASON. I can let you have a Budd tree back to Thomas & Rebecca BUDD, the parents of Thomas BUDD bapt. 1754 at Elford, Staffs., who married Hannah TOWERS and was the father of the Thomas who married Frances MIDDLETON. I presume you are a descendant of Albert Edwin BUDD (1876-1958), who emigrated to Canada in 1912. I am a retired consular officer and live in Tenerife in the Canary Islands.

Hi,

Thanks for your message. I am indeed a descendant of Albert Edwin Budd, by his daughter Rose. I haven't picked up my research for a couple of years, but my Budd research did go quite well. I am a direct descendant of Patience Budd's brother Thomas. My brick wall is on the MATHEWS/MATHERS/MATTHEWS side - I've yet to find conclusive documentation regarding the parentage of Thomas (1822-1901) Budd's first wife, Sarah Matthews (d. May 2, 1854). Any info you have in this regard would be welcome. Thanks again and best wishes, Jeannie.
