Hezikiah Smith b c1849
...........................................................

Cannot find relevant birth for Hezikiah Smith (Market Drayton District) on freebmd but have a birth and christening on IGI. Can find a birth for Robert Smith ??

1851 C
Hezikiah Smith .. Age 1 .. born: Mucclestone, Salop
Living with family: Dorrington, Salop

1861 C
Robert Smith .. Age 11 .. born: Muxton, Salop (other name for mucclestone)
Living with same family: Aston, Mucclestone

1871 C
Robert Smith .. Age 17? .. born: Mucclestone, Salop
Living with same family: Aston, Mucclestone

1881 C
Robert Smith dissapears and Hezikiah reappears
Hezikiah Smith .. Age 32 .. born: Pipegate, Staffordshire
**Pipegate is in the parish of Mucclestone and in later census' he says Pipegate, Salop.

Whenever Robert appears I can't find a definate Hezikiah
When Hezikiah appears I can't find a Robert

Is this the same person ?????

Do you think he was registered Robert and they changed it to Hezikiah but gave his 'official' name for census' till he left home?

Thanks

Melanie

Do You have a marriage for this person?


Nicky

did he marry ,if so what was his name on the cert

I can`t find Hezikiah Smith on the 1881 in either Salop or Staffordshire..... who are they living with?


Nicky.

He married as Hezikiah

Dec sec 1874 (6a 1459)..Market Drayton.

Hi Nicky .. yes that is him.

Thanks

Melanie

Purchasing the marriage cert. may help......you may find out if he has a middle name...possibly Robert? Or Thomas birth cert.? that will confirm the name of his father....


Nicky

Thanks Nicky

Think thats what I'm going to have to do and take a gamble it's him.

Thanks

Melanie

I think there may be 2 Hezekiah/Hezikiah Smith born around the same time, in a similar area...

Hezekiah Smith

Nicky

Yes that's the only birth I can find for Hezikiah but it just doesn't feel right and is the wrong district.

I just can't understand why in 1861 a Robert 11 appears and Hezikiah 11 isn't there ?

Thanks

Melanie

Is this the same person in 1861?.....as hes a little old to be the one born in 1851....I`ve checked the image ,the age is definetly 11.

Also noticing 2 different spellings HEZEKIAH and HEZIKIAH.

Hi Nicky

Thanks for that I didn't have that possible census for him .. I do hope that all my work later on with Hezikiah is going to turn out to be wrong.

Thanks again

Nicky

The 1851 census is the one I know for definate and have worked forward from this as Sarah Smith (his sister) is my Gt Grandmother.

He was christened 16 DEC 1849 Mucklestone, Stafford.

Have to go out for a while now so please don't think I am being ignorant not replying.

Thanks for your help.

Melanie

Heres the 1891 census for him..... I think that means you have them all now?

All these children have parents Thomas and Sarah Smith, they could all be possible siblings of Hezekiah.

Nicky

Notice the brother called Robert,a little younger than Hezekiah, think thats where you may have got mixed up.

Hi Nicky

Where on earth did you find the information about the christening dates for the other children ?!

I have been on IGI and put them in individually and the only one with any results is Hezikiah and when I click on family it just brings up his parents names with no siblings.

Thanks very much for that .. it means that Roberts age is wrong on the 1861 census which is what has thrown me.

Thanks very much

Melanie
