1851 Census Bewdley

[calmar]

Please could someone look for Charles Poole born Bewdley, Worecestershire c 1841.

In 1861 he is 20 years old and in Barracks at Gosport.

I would appreciate any details of him and his family.

Regards,

Calmar

Hi John,

Thank you for that info  - Great!!

I had found a birth on FreeBMD for Charles and it is registered in Kings Norton, Sept qtr 1841, so wasn't too sure if it was correct.

Is Kings Norton the registration district for Bewdley then? I can't find anything on GENUKI to tell me. In my innocence, I thought Kings Norton was nearer to Birmingham!

Regards,

Calmar

Hi
Bewdley registers in the Kidderminster district. the best link for this is

http://www.fhsc.org.uk/genuki/REG/

I would be surprised if this is the same Charles as Beoley is quite a different place to Bewdley, even if it is in the same county.
I can't help with the 1851 census but in the 1841 census for Bewdley there is a Thomas Pool, labourer, living Welchgate/Roadside in a family of 3 males and 5 females.

The IGI is not very good for parish records from Bewdley at this time but you might have luck if some one can check the BVRI for you. It will most likely be under Ribbesford if it is there - then again there were some independent churches too.
I'm not saying that the Beoley entry is the wrong one but I do think you should be careful as he says Bewdley in 1861 and 1881

Hi Gardener,

Thanks for that info, very illuminating!!

Now you say that he says Bewdley on 1861 and 1881. Have you seen him on 1881 cause I can't find him?

If you have PLEASE tell me where he is!!

mmmm....well I thought he was the one born 1842, Bewley, Worcs, a sergeant in Salford Infantry Barracks but perhaps I was wrong? Sorry
