Gipsy funeral

[heywood]

Do you have them in censuses after 1891?

Do you have dates of deaths for William and Ann?

[rosie99]

Yes she was a Spooner at birth.
It was either her family or Taylor family that were traveling fair people.

What occupations does the marriage for Ann & William give for their fathers, that should indicate which family were the fair people

[rosie99]

Groom's father    Emanuel TAYLOR
Bride's father    Samuel SPOONER

1851 has Ann with father Samuel occ Frame Work Knitter and mother Sarah (nee Marshall
HO107/2129 Folio 279 Page 33

This looks like Ann's birth
SPOONER, ANN       mmn MARSHALL 
GRO Reference: 1843  March Quarter in NOTTINGHAM  Volume 15  Page 578


1851 has William with father Emanuel - Emanuel's occupation is a Miner
HO107/2129 Folio 280 Page 34

It looks as though you may have to go further back for any fairground link

I have just looked through censuses and found the same results. No evidence there of travelling people.

I can’t see William or Ann after 1891, can anyone else see them.

[rosie99]

I am still looking for them after 1891.   

Son Salathiel is married & living in Nottingham. It looks like the name Salathiel probably goes back to the earlier Derbyshire Taylor family line.

3 Towles Yard where the family were living in 1891 is not occupied in 1901

I know William was apig jobber at one time and thats it.

[murphies]

I think the fathers were at one time listed as miners.

[heywood]

They don’t seem to be gypsies/fairground people from those censuses.

You were looking for a burial around early 1900s but we are having difficulty finding the couple after 1891 and no deaths yet.

Which child is your ancestor?
