ooo thanks james

i know we have this info already .... but I am still only on page 10 ...your info is so helpful as aI will not have to scour this LONG LONG thread HEE HEE


BTW Jen ....
1841 ...we found William Hedges 65 and 'son' Joseph 20 both chairbottomers in prison ... In 1841 did they round up ages if you were 16 or older ...if so joseph could be another brother born between 1816-1820 ..... or if they rounded down he could be born 1811-1815  either way he would fit in.

I've just found this and thought it was worth posting:

1881:

   Dwelling:   63 Stockwell Road
   Census Place:   Lambeth, Surrey, England
   Source:   FHL Film 1341140     PRO Ref RG11    Piece 0609    Folio 47    Page 11
   Marr   Age   Sex   Birthplace
William A. DAVIS   M   35    M   Lewisham, Kent, England
   Rel:   Head
   Occ:   Baker & Confectioner
Charlotte DAVIS   M   27    F   Rye, Sussex, England
   Rel:   Wife
   Occ:   Baker & Confectioner Wife
William E. DAVIS       2    M   Stockwell, Surrey, England
   Rel:   Son
Thomas CUMBERS   U   17    M   Romford, Essex, England
   Rel:   Assistant
   Occ:   Assistant
Margaret LOWE   U   42    F   Walsall, Stafford, England
   Rel:   Lodger
   Occ:   Cook Domestic Servant


William A. Davis could be related to the the Davis' who married into the Hedges... but also note Thomas Cumbers.  Now datewise, he could be a brother of Alfred Cumbers.  His place of birth fits too.

There's also a William, Samuel and Elizabeth Cumbers in Surrey, all except Elizabeth, born Romford, who also could be siblings.

Deb
Elizabeth is a possibility as a sister but need to keep it open until we have some more evidence I think. Tried looking for her in 1851 but found nothing in Surry, Sussex Kent or Essex. that looks obvious to me.
I have Joseph chalked up as another possible brother, Hadn't thought about the age rounding up thing. So you have a good point there. Perhaps a hunt at some point for some more evidence will be on the cards. Needs putting on the to do list.
I'm sure there must be siblings out there other than the 4 we have as ages are to spread for there not to be more.
There are names repeated in the family over and over, the 4 brothers are in the habit of naming their children after the brother I'm sure they must have did it with sisters too. Stands to reason really.

Added.. I must leave you all as I am heading home soon babysitting finished. I will catch up with you all in the morning.

I believe it's Olive Hedges, daughter of Elias Hedges and Alice Reynolds.

I have noted her down as born about 1866 in Southfleet.

Southfleet/Southlea

I think it's her.  Yes, she has a brother named Elijah as well.
