  "It shows that Ann was MEAD not GRAY??"



yes I agree Karenlee and I suspect the source of the material had crossed over their information which in turn got transferred to my book.......

good to have a second pair of eyes look at these things......

I think now, that I will put this as completed as I have looked at this branch before and shall accordingly get in contact with the mistranscribed page owner........    thanks everyone...

crossed over from where?  I think you can only say that for certain if you look at the original record.

and shall accordingly get in contact with the mistranscribed page owner........

Again unless you look at the original, how can you say that a mistranscription has occurred.  Gray and Mead don't look alike at all.  I don't see how his name has been recorded unless someone gave that to the incumbent in 1881? 

There are no relationships shown on 1841 census and I can't find Ann on 1851 census at the moment to see who she was living with. Have you considered the possibility that perhaps she looked on Charles Gray as her father and this is why she gave his name    Just a possibility to consider before you contact the transcription hosts.

Little Nell.....  the quotation considerations of my comments are feasible if one is coming in blind.., however, once I saw the suggestion of Ann Mead and her life presented it was then understood that I knew what this was about. A distant cousin whose tree appears on the free pages of anc had covered Ann and Georges life.....   I referred to another set of notes about this and saw there was an error upon the behalf of a fourth party.............  but thanks for the input.

Hi there,  mshergold

Have you contacted the following RChatter who may well have lots of info to share re SHERGOLD

Okay, this is a bit strange, given that so far everything else seems to fit the information you have previously provided.  It shows that Ann was MEAD not GRAY??  I will see if I can sort out what's going on with her...

Until then, it appears that this is them again

1861 Census England Somerset Yeovil
RG9/1644/31/13
Back Street

SHERGOLD
George Head Marr 26 Ag Lab Wiltshire Wilton
Ann Wife Marr 22 Somerset Yeovil
Harry Son Unmarr 4 Scholar Somerset Yeovil
Sarah Dau Unmarr 1 Somerset Yeovil
Sarah MEAD Mother in Law Wid 47 Leather Glover Somerset Yeovil

Sorry! I disagree!

It simply shows that her mother had possibly remarried and was now Mead?
Or that Sarah Mead was his mother-in-law from his previous marriage?

There is nothing on that census that definitely links Ann to Sarah?

Of course, you may be right, but I wouldn't jump to conclusions!

Marriages Sep 1859   
Mead    Ann        Yeovil    5c   809   
Shergold    George        Yeovil    5c   809



kgarrad is unfortunately offbase.....     the census is correct

[mshergold]

Could I let it be known that this topic is about a part of the family in S O M E R S E T that have travelled from Wiltshire and onto Hampshire........        At the end of the day its about information on  the Mead woman or her family......in S O M E R S E T

so why has the post been moved to a board other than that to which I put it?


JUST CURIOUS
