Hello All, There is a little bit of a twist to my original request and I should have been more specific in my post, my appologies. A long time ago, I had the record of Richard Meredith and wife Sarah, living on Wyle Cop in 1861. I unfortunately lost it. Strangely though, now when I look them up in the indexes, I can't find them. I guess what I need is someone with access to the full census who can look up the inhabitants of Wyle Cop for me. Thanks, Georgia

Hi Georgia Could you give more information e.g. date of birth - there are several Richard Merediths born in Shropshire in the 1861.

I really have not been following this line with attention, being otherwise occupied, but according to census details I have searched over the years an inmate is usually a person in a hospital, a workhouse, or even a scholar at a school, thus this could also open up to being an inmate in any kind of institution, no matter what it is. Time to spread your wings and do a little bit of lateral thinking, eh? What other kind of institution could he possibly have been dwelling in at the time? A church hospice, perhaps? Or?? Good luck Graham Melbourne

Hello Everyone, I am new to the list. I am researching the family of Richard MEREDITH from Shrewsbury, Shropshire If anyone could possibly help out, I need a census lookup for the family on Wyle Cop in Shrewsbury in 1861. Thanks! Georgia

Hi Jo, Thanks for this - I didn't understand before that 'inmate' had more than the present-day meaning.

Hi Trevor, No, it definitely says 'inmate', but the link that Jo sent gives an explanation that fits exactly with Samuel's living arrangements.

http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/OLD-ENGLISH/2006-05 go into browse for May 2006, and few mailings on this Inmate question. I am especially interested, as I have a birth certificate for 1839, (Wales), where the informant is described as Inmate (sounds like of a pub), and we have not been able to trace any workhouse or similar at the address. The informant was totally deaf, so I wondered if he was perhaps under care of some sort, but info on him for various other years gives him as being an ag lab. Jo.

Hi Listers, I wonder if anyone could explain something on a death cert - I've never seen it before. William Cross died from asthma, aged 71 in 1850, place of death Stapely Marsh, Parish of Chirbury. In the informant column it reads The Mark of Samuel X Cross [William's son] Inmate Stapely Marsh Parish of Chirbury Occupier Deceased. In the 1851 census Samuel is still in Chirbury working as a lead miner, having been working on a farm in Shelve in 1841. As far as I know there wasn't a gaol in Chirbury, and the Union workhouse was in Forden, so I don't understand what 'inmate' would refer to. And as for Occupier Deceased - I have no idea at all what that means. I'm certain that this is what's written as the handwriting is good. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks (A very puzzled) Ellie

Hello Ellie, I am fairly certain you will have already discounted this, but could it say "present" ie at the death? This was commonly used in this column. Regards, Trevor Littleton

Hi Daff, Can't help with MI transcripts, But I went up there a couple of years ago and considering the size of the Church Yard there are very few Headstones! don't know if they have been removed ? Does anyone else know ? My DRURYs lived there from 1770 for well over 100yrs and I only found 1 MI. for them. If you find there are any transcriptions would love to know. regards Catherine in Cheshire ----- Original Message ----- From: "H Whitwell" <whitwell@optusnet.com.au> To: <ENG-SHROPSHIRE-PLUS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, June 16, 2006 10:56 AM Subject: Selattyn MIs lookup > If anyone has access to the Selattyn Memorial Inscriptions I would > appreciate a check for a William Humphreys whom I believe died in 1843 and > possibly a Jane Humphreys who may have died around this time also. > > Any help much appreciated. > Daff > Western Australia. >

Does anyone have a description of the 15 districts included in "Ellesmere" in this census? I'm looking for Kenwick Park and I don't want to look at all 15 enumeration district descriptions... yes, lazy indeed! Thanks. Alejandro Milberg Boston, Mass.

If anyone has access to the Selattyn Memorial Inscriptions I would appreciate a check for a William Humphreys whom I believe died in 1843 and possibly a Jane Humphreys who may have died around this time also. Any help much appreciated. Daff Western Australia.
