Can you provide full names and place of birth for Joshua and Elizabeth. Ray

If you don't find them in Ohio or New York, be sure to check New Jersey where Lenox China was located.

A Joshua Hughes married an Elizabeth Hancock in 1884 in a Civil Marriage at Wolstanton.I strongly believe that this Joshua Hughes was a relative of mine,the problem being that there is no sign of this Couple after this date on any Census. Regards William Russell Jones Cefn Mawr Wrexham.

Hi Jennifer I have found a Joshua Cooper in the 1891 census can send you a copy if you like regards Joan From: "Jennifer Cooper" <jennifer@buckspoint.f2s.com> Date: 2005/07/06 Wed AM 10:32:54 GMT To: ENG-STS-THE-POTTERIES-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [Pots] COOPER Hi listers, I am in the process of trying to track down my husband's great grandfather Samuel COOPER who, according to the census 1881, 1891 and 1901, was born in1860 in Macclesfield. My research has brought me to Staffordshire, having discovered from the 1861 census at 1837online that one of the three Samuel COOPERs born in 1860 in Macclesfield was living in Tunstall. According to the birth certificate he was born 18th February, 1860, son of Joshua COOPER (labourer) and Isabella HENSHALL. Samuel's marriage certificate to Maragaret BLANSHARD on Sept. 7th 1885 in the parish of Fallowfield states his father as being Cannon COOPER deceased. I cannot find a 'Cannon' anywhere so surmise that this could have been a nickname of some sort. My question is does anyone connect with this family?....according to the 1881 census the other children were: William, Ellen, John, Sarah Jane, Joshua, Emily and Thomas, all born in Tunstall. If anyone has access to the 1891 census could they check if Joshua is still living then. Any assistance would be much appreciated.

If you have a map of the Potteries look north of Tunstall on the A50, in between Tunstall and Goldenhill there is a timber merchants called Newfiled Timber and a Fireplace manufacturer called Newfield Firplaces. This is where I guess the area of Newfield is, I know it more as Summerbank and Sandyford though. Perhaps some one else on the list could clarify this ?

Greetings I have a George HUXLEY who is shown from the 1861 census onwards as a miner at Knutton. He was born c. 1830 in Wrenbury parish, Cheshire. Is anyone able to look for him on the 1851 census, please? He was at Knutton Heath in 1861, with wife Augusta aged 34. Best wishes Alan Huxley

List – Is there anyone who will be going to either the Stoke on Trent City Archives in Hanley or the Staffordshire Record Office in Stafford that would be willing to check for a christening record? I would like to determine if Urinah Webb was christened at Newchapel Wesleyan Methodist Church (The reference for these records is D5481/2/5/1). Urinah was born in the Sept qtr of 1860 so I would expect that the christening would have taken place in the second half of 1860. Thanks, Tom Wood Pittsburgh, PA USA

Friends I am attempting to find out more about Caleb Cole b c 1757-60 in Newchapel. He married Hannah WOOLF in Audley 1791 , she died in 1792, and I think Caleb possibly married Clara BALLS in London in 1800.. Caleb is listed in the 1793 Directory as a China Maker of Newfield, also in Albut's Index- Caleb Cole & Co. 1801 Newfield - I am attempting to find out more information about the firm, if possible, have checked Directories 1818 and 1822 but he is not listed. Any further information would be much appreciated. tia Helen New Zealand

Hi all, Looking for the baptism record, (copy preferably), of WALTER SAMUEL MUNN, born qtr 1 1893, registration at Wolstanton. If anyone has access to the Parish registers I would appreciate a look and a copy. Or if anyone has any information about this MUNN family, please get in touch. There seem to be so many Stafford lists, I hope I am on the right one. Terry

Dear Jean Thanks for looking, if I could establish where he was born then I can try and find his baptism. His wife was Ann Mountford and the Mounfords also seem to be mainly in the north end of the city, so I'll keep looking up there!

Hi Barbara, I looked at the "where born" for George Lucas, but I can't decipher it either. Perhaps you may have some luck with another lister. It could begin with M or N. I thought perhaps Meir.. something, ...but Meir Heath doesn't fit, or Meir lane, or Meir Hay. The last column could read BLIND. By the way, I have Lucas's in my tree, but not George and family. My Lucas's were potters and lived in and around Longton, but originated from Burslem and Derby. There are also Lucas's from Newcastle under Lyme which aren't connected to mine either. Have you thought that George may come from that branch? You may like to try that line.

Hello Tim I am always interested in any Richardsons, depending on the dates! Mine start in Worc in 1804, so if you have any Johns or Williams before that date, fire away, particularly if you have a William married to a Mary!!!!
