There is only one family that I can see that may fit your one.
1851 census
John Standish 63
Susan Standish 62
Sarah Standish 36
George Pitt 30 son-in-law steel pen maker b. Birmingham
Mary Ann 31 dau:
George William 6
Samuel J 4
Harry C 2
living Summer St. West Edgbaston
HO 107/2049/f142/p7

Did Samuel J have James as second name and use that as his name. and did your George marry Mary Ann Standish?

GRO index

William Woodall marr Nancy Ann Bumford Dudley Dec 1851 Ref 18 437

John Harrison marr: Ann Wilson Birmingham Dec 1901 ref: 6d 131

I cannot see any marriage of Thomas Wilson to Annie Woodall
A birth certificate of one of the children will confirm the names of the parents.

A look at the marriage certificate will give you tha fathers name

Re: Jessie Tedstone

mollymoo531 — 2009-11-01 17:52:36Z

Hi Pam, thank you for replying again. Her mother was not on her marriage certificate. I wish I had the space to tell you the whole story, its unusual and driving me and my Cousin mad. If you are interested, I can give you my email address: mollymoo53@googlemail.com. There are so many twists and turns in her story. Maybe fresh eyes could spot a clue in the bits and pieces we have. I loved her very much and after nearly 40 years I miss her still. Regards, Marian

Re: Jessie Tedstone

pamsmadhouse1 — 2009-11-01 09:36:57Z

Hi again Marian
No I do not understand why either. I have checked the actual birth indexes for Sep & Dec Q 1894 and the only Tedstone listed is a Lydia born at Kingston.
Is her mother not listed on the birth certificate?
Pam

Re: Jessie Tedstone

Hi, thank you for your message. Can you explain why on my grandmother's marriage certificate her birth date is 28 September 1894? Thanks Marian.

Re: Jessie Tedstone

Hi Pam, thank you for your message. I cannot understand why on my grandmother's marriage certificate her date of birth is 28th September 1894. Do you have any ideas. Thanks Marian.

UQuinel — 2009-10-30 01:59:07Z

I would be very grateful if someone could look at the 1851 census for Worcestershire for a James Pitt b. 1849, father George and mother Mary Ann. The family came to Australia in 1856 however I can't find them on the 1851 records available to me. It is thought they may have come from Worcestershire. Cheers Elizabeth

Re: Trenfield in Worcestershire

helenhibbins — 2009-10-29 15:45:41Z

Hi Pam,
Many thanks for that information. Trenfield seems to be one of the most mis-transcribed names. I've managed to find them as Granfield in 1841!
One quick question: What is the IGI? I'm reasonably new to all this and haven't come across that abbreviation yet.
Thanks again,
Helen

Re: Trenfield in Worcestershire

pamsmadhouse1 — 2009-10-29 13:20:10Z

Hi
Have found what I think is the family on the 1851 Census - transcribed on Ancestry as 'Rumfield' but sure looks like Trenfield to me!

1851 Berrow, Worcestershire
Thomas Trenfield Head M 40 Farm Labourer b. Worcs, Breadon
Priscilla Trenfield Wife 35 b. Worcs, Pendock?
William Son 13 Farm Servant b. Welland
James Son 9 Scholar b. Welland
Mary Daug 7 Scholar b. Ishton?
Eliza Daug 5 b. Berrow
Julia Daug 2 b. Berrow
HO 107/2043 f 334 p 26

Have found Thomas on the IGI:
Thomas Trefelde b. Jan 1811 Christened 5 AUG 1811 Bredon, Worcs. Parents = William Trenfelde & Sarah

Hope it helps

Re: Jessie Tedstone

Jessie was not illegitimate she was born September qtr 1892
Stourbridge ref.6c 203
Thomas Tedstone married September qtr 1892 Kings norton
also married same reference number Sept 1892 Kings norton
Mary Jane Bradford ref.6c 627.
Cannot find any of these people on census.
Thomas Frederick Tedstone was born Bromsgrove 1875 so he would only have been 17 when he married.

Jessie Tedstone

mollymoo531 — 2009-10-27 22:08:24Z

I have my grandmother's marriage certificate with her fathers name and occupation. I cannot find any trace of her birth records. She was Jessie Tedstone born 1894, I was told she was born in Halesowen, but not certain. Her father Thomas Fredrick Tedstone born 1876, groom/domestic, born in Bromsgrove. I don't know who her mother was, and can't trace her father, exactly. She moved from Birmingham to Accrington, Lancs in her teens to live with Jennie Hall (nee Bradford) who she called mother, and my mother called her Grandma, if she was illigitimate how can I find out.

Trenfield in Worcestershire

helenhibbins — 2009-10-26 18:46:25Z

Hi,
I'm trying to find more information on the Trenfield family in Worcestershire. Currently, I can get no further than Julia Ann Trenfield (my great great great grandmother), born in Upton Upon Severn in 1849. Any help would be appreciated before I go along the lines of purchasing a birth certificate!

Sorry, I was in Canada and missed your Aug reply. I'd love anything you can give me or point me too. Thanks so much for replying. Always fun to get a response like this.

I have Kate Sarah Grainger's birth certificate with the Sarah Turley's name on it. There are photos on my public Ancestry.com tree: Smith - Ellis Family Tree. If you have a subscription to that, eel free to copy the photos of Sarah Turley, but if you have a problem, I can send them to you direct.

Cannot find any descendants for the other 2.
You can contact Mandy Manning on Friends reunited she went to school in Catshill which would fit in with the Bromgrove births.

Re: Samuel Woodall c1852

peggysullivan114 — 2009-10-13 12:47:20Z

Samuel Woodall married Tryphosa Helens George Wolverhampton
Sep. 1882 6b 804

A look at the marriage cert: will give you the fathers name.

I have looked at all the censuses and the GRO index and the 'R' in his name does not appear anywhere until the 1901 census.

The only Woodall & Russell marriage I can find was in 1837 a bit early I thought.

Re: My Court family from Redditch!

vacourt — 2009-10-08 21:03:01Z

Hi Pam!

Not sure how I ever missed your reply to my post... have to make sure my notifications are turned on!

The first Alfred you mentioned (Victuallar) I believe is the one I am looking for, since he was born cir. 1862/3. I do find it very interesting that another Alfred Court born in Redditch as well also married an Emma AND named their son William. May be they were cousins? I need to figure out now their link.

Thank you so much for the info! My reg. email is vacourt@gmail.com if you come across anything else. Have a great day and thanks again!

lisamason1803 — 2009-10-25 23:00:48Z

Samuel Woodall c1852

Thomwood1 — 2009-10-11 17:18:41Z

Samuel R Woodall married Tryphosa Helena George in 1882 Worcestershire (place not known).Has anyone any idea who his father was? The R may stand for Russell in his name.I think he may be the son of John and Rebecka (maiden name Russell )Woodall but as there were more Samuel's born the same year I am not sure.They later lived near Eccles Lancs.

Woodall/Woodhall

Thomwood1 — 2009-10-20 13:10:39Z

Annie Woodall c1859 Dudley , father William mother Nancy Ann Bumford.From info. passed to me some time ago she married Thomas Wilson about 1880 and after his death in 1898 remarried John Harrison abt.1901.Has any one any idea of the marriages as I cannot find them.Children Walter 1880,William 1885,Robert 1887 all Bimingham and Ethel 1892 poss. Dudley.Dates taken from census so may not be corect.

Re: Samuel Woodall c1852

Thomwood1 — 2009-10-13 17:19:19Z

Hi Peggy,Thanks for your reply.I managed to find the marriage on Ancestry and will send for the certificate.I think Samuel my be the son of John Woodall c1815 and Rebecca Rusell.The name Russell did not appear on any census but did on their grandson Thomas's marriage cert.,his father was John Russell Woodall who may be the brother of Samuel who married Tryphosa.John and Rebecca Woodall did have a son Samuel born abt.1853 who is not at home on the census but living with his uncle Samuel Russell.That is why I think Samuel may have Russell in his name .Of course he may have Robert or something else for a middle name.

Looking for document that would prove that Benjamin Trow 1763-1802 was Betsy Trow 1799-1894 farther. VR Tell me that she was born in Conway 1799. But not her father. Does anyone know if there was a probate when Benjamin died. I*'ve heard that there was a Trow genealogy written by Alfred Trow 1792-1881 (her brother) he lived in Erie Co. PA.

There a 2 nearly identical 1841 England Censuses for 2 different Ben Raybould. One Benjamin has Rosetta Rolinson for his Mother and John Raybould for a Father. However, my Ben Raybould is NOT a son of of these two. My Benjamin married Maria Handley spring qtr 1845 at St Mary's in Kingwinford.
Does Anyone have a clue who his parents were?
My best guess is Thomas and Mary from Regis Rowley, but I'm not sure... I apppreciate any advice. Mike

Maria Whitehouse later married Benjamin Boot fall qtr 1848 at St Edmunds in Dudley.

Her Father is John Amos and a possible Mother might be a
