Kevin : Thank you for your message - I should have been more specific.
I seem to have a mother and three daughters, viz.
The mother is Sarah
TILEY or
TILLEY. She appears on the 1841 Census in Tellisford,
Frome, as
TILEY, aged 70, a Laundress, with a Mary Ann, 30, Laundress, a William
TILEY, 20, a
Fuller, and Elizabeth
TILEY, 4. All of the above are "born in County".
On the 1851 Census a Sarah
TILLEY, Widow, aged 82, Laundress, born "
Somerset, Flutton" is at 5,
Duke Street, St. Marylebone, with Martha SHORE, unmarried, 52, Laundress, born "
Somerset,
Farnborough", and Sarah
Harris, Grand Daughter, 15, Unmarried, born Dartford, Kent.
Sarah
Harris I know to be the daughter of a Mary SHORE born about 1795, died 27 June 1847, who married an
Evan Watkins Harris, an Independent
Minister.
Martha SHORE I know to be the sister of an Ann SHORE born 27 Nov 1792, died 28 Dec 1862 who married a John
SHEPPARD in
London in 1816. Ann SHORE is shown on the 1861 Census as being born in (what appears to be) "Little,
Somerset".
Later on in 1871, Ann SHORE's daughter, Martha
SHEPPARD married a James SHORE (b.1838, Gloucestershire - d.1907, Wandsworth, served in the
Royal Navy)from a SHORE family who seem to have settled in
Poplar after moving up from Somerset/Gloucestershire/Bristol. The menfolk of these latter
SHOREs were
Anchor Smiths and Black Smiths.
