Stourbridge County Borders 1700's
« on: Friday 03 August 18 15:08 BST (UK) »
Hi all,
I am trying to figure out my 6th great-grandmother parents and siblings were. Lucy Beach abt 1781 born in Stourbridge, Worcestershire. Lucy married Jeremiah Billingham 26 Dec 1800 in St. Mary's, Kingswinford, Stafford. I cannot seem to find no Lucy Beach baptism, only one that is popping up is in Dorset  ??? 2 of her census, one says Old Swinford, Stourbridge and another says Cradley, Lye. District is Stourbridge. Would Stourbridge district at one time was in the border for Dorset please? This is thee only Lucy Beach I've found;
Name   
Lucy Beach
Mother   
Lucy
Father   
Henry Beach
Baptism   
28/03/1779 Gussage-St. Michael Dorset England

Many Thanks,
Patricia

A witness at the 1800 Marriage was a Joseph BACHE so may be another alternate surname for Lucy.
(FreeREG)

There are 3 other Beach Marriages Kingwinford 1799/1799/1802.
2 under Beech 1793/1810
7 under Bache 1792-1807
1 under Bach 1800
I only searched 1791-1810

So several alternate spellings for Beach are likely.

1841 census only indicates whether born in County or not. 1851 she says born Cradley but no records exist pre 1785 as it was a Chapel made out of Halesowen. There are Beach's there & in other Parishes surrounding Cradley so no reason to believe she's the one born in Dorset.

Hi thanks Jim and Trish. Trish where too was you able to see the marriage please? Ancestry shows me no image :( Shame there is no records in census before 1841, I have found a 'Anne Beach' baptised in the same church as the Lucy.

Thank you so much both, it's much appreciated. Cos banging on this brick wall is just annoying for so long.

Only just re-read your post and saw that you looked in the FreeREG site, thanks. I'll take a look over there.

1841 Census just states Lucy Billingham is born in County (1841 does not state pob for anyone), 1851 she is born Cradley, Worcs (for others under Bellingham on Anc.)

1841 Census
Lucy Billingham, 60 Independant
Jeremiah Billingham, 30 Chain Maker
Eli Billingham, 25 Chain Maker
Samuel Billingham, 19

Having said all that I ant find a Lucy Beach/Beech/Bache/Bach c 1780 Cradley ::)

Clutching at straws now but there was a child Foley Billingham b. 1805 to Jeremiah & Lucy. There may be a Beach Foley marriage somewhere.

Hi, Foley Billingham abt 1805 married Honour Woodhouse 24 May 1824. Foley Billingham is Jeremiah and Lucy son. Foley and Honour had 3 boys and a girl.
