Benjamin Wright DOB abt 1870 Tipton Staffordshire ( boatpeople )

[MaCenzie]

I am trying to find the birth of Benjamin Wright born abt 1870 in or around Tipton Staffordshire.His father was Benjamin Wright a boatman on the canals. His mother may be Caroline Beresford or Martha Fisher? or ??.I have evidence of who his father was but not his mother,I am unable to find his birth. Any info would be appreciated. Many thanks.

Where is he in 1871/1881/1891 as I can't see an entry with a Staffs birthplace and a birthyear 1868-1872

There is a 1901 entry for a Benj Wright b 1873 Staffs - no district - married to Lettie and living in Cheshire

[CaroleW]

The marriage of Wright/Beresford was 1854 and the Wright/Fisher marriage was June qtr 1871

If he was born 1870 - then the 1871 marriage does not fit.

  O.K
        Think I've found him in census ...wife Lottie/Lettie?

Possible...Benjamin Wright Dec qtr 1872 Dudley. To be honest..due to fathers occupation...he
could have been born anywhere!
