    1. [ENG-SHROP] Booth family

    3. Hello, This is my first time here. A friend suggested this might help. I'm looking for Thomas William Booth (or maybe William Thomas Booth) born about 1770-1780. I only have family stories to go on. This is what my 94 year old aunt said: "Thomas William Booth was a methodist minister and gentleman farmer. He had a daughter named Mary Booth. She married a Woods or something like that. After that she married George Jones. Thomas didn't approve because she married beneath her so he cut her off. Mary and George had a son - Noah. He married Fanny Dunning and they had a child - Emily Jones. (Emily was my aunt's mother.) Emily said when she was a little girl they sometimes went to her Grandfather's house and he would give them milk. The house was called Windsor Hall. They could only go to the back door and it had "gold" door knobs." I can't find Windsor Hall. I can't find Thomas William Booth. And I have too many birth places for daughter Mary. Here's what I've found so far. There is a Mary Booth married to Thomas Wood in 1820 in Eyton. 1841 Census shows (Malinslee) George Jones and Mary Jones Children: William Jones 10, Sarah Jones 8, Louisa Jones 6, George Jones 4, Elizabeth Wood 18, Ann Wood 15. (All born in Shropshire) 1851 Census (Dawley) George Jones - 46 born in Hem Mary Jones - 53 for in Burton Children: Lucy M Jones16, George Jones 13, Noah Jones 11, Ann Walker 25 (all born in Malinslee) 1861 Census (Dawley Magna) George Jones 56 -born in Shiffnal Mary Jones 62 - born in Shiffnal children George 21, Noah 23 (children born in Dawley) 1871 Census (Dawley) Mary Jones 72 widow (I believe it says born in Wellington) Sorry if this is too long. Has any one ever heard of Windsor Hall near any of these places? --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Get on board. You're invited to try the new Yahoo! Mail.
