Venus Family

[2zpool]

I have that both Jacob Scott Venus and Margaret Taylor were natives of "this parish" as on the transcript of the children's baptisms.   Jacob was a Shipwright.

There is a burial of a Margaret Venus, age 55, of Liddell St 27 Oct 1839.  No John Venus burial up to 1839 in Tynemouth Christ Church.

Also of interest will be the burial of Jacob Venus, age 77, Of North Shields 13 Oct 1818, and Sarah Venus, age 87, N. Shields, 30 May 1825.

thanks for the help - I didnt have the deaths of Jacob or Margaret (jacob scott venus' parents).

I guess John was in shipping, but cant find him anywahere.  His wife (Margaret Cowell then venus) remarries in 1840 and is shown with her children in further census with her new husband, but I havent sent for the cert yet to see if she is shown as a widow.

thanks again!

Hello to Everyone
I am a direct descendant of John (block and mast maker) and Ann Venus listed in the 1881 census in Byker on Albion Street. My Father was James Venus, born to Ruth Venus in Byker in 1921.

 I was amazed to find so much information so quickly in the census records

I have not gone any further back in the records. I would very much welcome any other information.

Regards, Clare Venus

Hi Clare

I am directly descended from Ralph Venus who is your John's brother!  Therefore our common ancestors are Ralph and John's parents, John and Mary Venus nee Elliott.
