COMPLETED 1851 Census, Fullwood family, Newcastle

[kiwi]

Hi.

I am looking for the following family:

Fullwood, Joseph, age abt 46yrs, occupation Blacksmith, born Staffordshire.
Fullwood Sarah, age abt 45yrs, wife, born Newcastle.
Fullwood Mary, age abt 13yrs, born Newcastle
Fullwood Robert ,age abt 12yrs born Newcastle.

The only person I have been able to find is Robert, in 1856, when he married in Liverpool, he gave his fathers occupation then as a blacksmith. ( Haven't been able to find any of them to date in Liverpool in 1851) Robert gave his place of birth as Walker and Longbenton in subsequent census's if it is of any help, he was christened in All Saints Church, Newcastle. 

Joseph and Sarah married in St Nicholas Church, Newcastle in 1825.
They also had the following children:
Ann Fullwood, born abt 1826
George Fullwood, born abt 1829
John Fullwood born abt 1833
Thomas Fullwood, born abt 1835 but I imagine they had left home by the time of the 1851 census.

Any information would be appreciated.
Best regards,
kiwi.

Hi Kiwi,
I have found Joseph Fullwood birth 14 April 1805 Sedgley Staffs parents were Joseph Fullwood and Lydia Standford.
Joseph married Sarah in 1825 as you know but her maiden name was Blackburn. Hope this is of some help.

Hi irret,

Fun isn't it! Did you get all that info off the LDS site? I have seen it too, but am taking the" slow as she goes" approach,  I wanted to see what Joseph (B1805) said on his 1851 return as a place of birth !.  You are quite right about Sarah's maiden name being Blackburn, I have surmised that Joseph went up to Newcastle for work reasons, being a blacksmith and the iron trade booming up there at that time from what I have been able to find out. 
There are 2 Joseph's that sort of fit the bill age wise in Staffordshire and I am trying to find out which one is with out doubt the 'right' one for me, ( one born in Bilston the other Sedgley)  I'm hoping it is the Sedgely one, as it is really exciting to have a tree go that far back.

The Fullwoods seem to have originated from Warwickshire, so it is really just the two Joseph's that need sorting out in 1851 to my satisfaction.

I know how thrilling  it is though to peel back the layers.  Thank you so much for looking for me.
Best regards,
kiwi

I will check my Grave Stone Inscriptions (MIs,) for that church for Fullwood.  What other areas did they live in Staffordshire and also what other name do you have for Staffs?

Hi Alf,

Thanks for your offer, but I don't want to send you off on too much of a wild goose chase, Joseph Fullwood b. about 1805  is from Sedgley, Staffs, and I'm afraid I do not have a death date it would be after 1840 but so far that is as far as I can go, I have no proof that he stayed, or moved from Newcastle, I have tried to find him in Liverpool and/or  Newcastle to no avail so far. He may have returned to Sedgley, I just have no other information on him.

The other Joseph b. about 1808 is from Bilston, Staffs, once again , no further information, death date etc.

At the moment the only surname I am looking for in Staffordshire is Fullwood, I have no doubt the two are related maybe cousins. 

Thanks ,
