What is Williams year he was born..??

patchem Report 17 Jul 2011 16:58

That is a large gap between 1907 and 1919.
Is the later birth definitely his family?
Not having any luck with 1911 (though it is playing up on my computer so is rather frustrating to search) Have tried profession, names of daughters without surnames, using Barton and Cottell as surnames, etc
Have you got him in 1901?
Thanks

Thank you Sue & Barbara
My father told me he was an ironmonger? maybe he was later on [I will check that out],
Yes that is the right family every thing fits except his trade, Hatty is living a few doors from her brother who also worked on the railway, I have the marriages of the girls in the census.
I don’t like to keep asking a lot of question to the lady born in 1919 as she gets a little confused but I will look in to it more,

Thank you for the deaths you found.

Hi Ann
Just a theory--it may be all no good !!!

What is the occ off Barton on Ellen and Bartons marriage cert ? Is he a BAKER ?

In the "actual image" for the 1881 census it looks (to me) as if Barton W. ELDRIDGE is age 30 ---not 50 !!!

I believe Barton W. ELDRIDGE (who Ellen and William was lodging with in 1881) and Barton William WHEELER (who Ellen married) are the same person.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First his birth index

Births Jun 1851

His mothers marriage ?? (after rhe birth of Barton)

Hi Ann

What I was trying to say on above posting was if the Barton William WHEELER who married Ellen was "brought up" by William Eldridge and Eliza--He MAY have used the name Eldridge for everyday BUT on official records used his birthname Wheeler. Just maybe Ellen gave ELDRIDGE to the enumerator in 1891 census (as he did in 1881)

This looks like the
