Yes, you can imagine Tunstall pronounced as it would be in Staffs (Toonst'll?) might sound like Touston to a Welsh ear!

I wondered about that but Sarah, who was head of household and would have given the information, was from Flintshire and wouldn't have spoken with a Staffordshire accent.

That's true genjen, but if Sarah wasn't literate, she would accept the pronunciation as she heard it, not as it was spelt.

Hello
If you have the maiden surname for Sarah you might be lucky with entering the children's names on Staffordshirebmd.org.uk baptism section. In a lot of cases the mother's maiden name is given and it can be of help.

Thanks again handm,whilst the John Williams isn't showing as such,there is the birth of a Sarah Williams in 1872 with the mother's maiden name of Evans in the Tunstall sub district on Staffordshire BMD.
