    1. Help with MOXON family
    2. Hi list - I have hit the proverbial brickwall with part of my husbands famiy and am hoping that someone can help. Here is what I do know: 1891 Kimberworth: Sarah A.Moxon married Samuel Bray Sarah gave her fathers name as Jacob. 1891 census there is a Sarah A and Samuel Bray living in Ecclesfield. She gives her age as 25 making her born about 1866. In the 1861 census there is a Jacob (b. 1836 Kimberworth) and Mary Ann (b. 1840 Ecclesfield) Moxon. He is a coal miner living at South Hall Reform Chapel, Kimberworth. Also in family is: Caroline born 1860 Kimberworth Mary Jane born 1860 Kimberworth In 1871 there is a Jacob Moxon working as a coal miner living in Intake Sheffield as a lodger. Listed as married and born 1834. Ther eis no sign of the remaining family. In 1881 in Intake there is a Jacob Moxon, a coal miner born about 1836 with his wife Mary Ann. Also in the family is: Emily Moxon born 1868 Edwin Moxon born 1875 In 1881 in Ecclesall Bierlow there is a Sarah A Moxon worknig as a servant. She was born 1865 in Thorpe Helsey. I have been unable to find a marriage certificate (in Free BMD) for Jacob and Mary Ann and also unable to find a birth certificate for Sarah A. I am not sure if the girl I found in 1881 is the right Sarah but I have a feeling she is. Can anyone help me track this family down. Thanks in advance Dianne in Edmonton, Alberta
