THOMAS BELL WEEKS BAPTISM 1814?
« on: Monday 05 September 22 16:31 BST (UK) »
Hi,

There is a transcript on Ancestry for the baptism of Thomas Bell Weeks born around 1813/14 his Father is Thomas Weeks a watch/clockmaker but I am unsure who is mother was or her maiden name
It seems to give very limited information https://www.ancestry.co.uk/discoveryui-content/view/105684481:62293?ssrc=pt&tid=152201721&pid=172054595885

He married in 1837 Rushall, St Michael, Staffordshire, to a Charlotte Molesworth.

In every census he claims his birth place as Middlesex!

Any help appreciated  ??? :)

Ancestry is giving this link in 1841 census - possibly his father, have you eliminated it from your search

Hi,

Yes I've seen this and I think that is him.

lots of tree's on Ancestry have his mother as Agnes Emma Bell, but there is no evidence to back this up other than a death in 1846 Walsall, Staffordshire of an Agnes Emma Weeks - but this wouldn't make much sense if Thomas Weeks is living with Jane in 1841 - I can see it says Jane is from Ireland as well.

I can't find any marriage for Thomas Weeks either!
