Maybe I misunderstood; I thought you said they were potters. Perhaps they were labourers in the pottery industry? Have you looked at the possible employers around where they were living? There may be something about them in archives. I would contact the firms and look in the local archives. You could also look for parish records to see if any settlement certificates etc have survived. I have found out quite a lot about my ancestors this way but I had to sift through a lot of papers; wages books, sickness records, piece work details, rent books, etc. If you are lucky and the parish records have survived you may find them mentioned in the poor law records which should tell you the parish they were settled in before arriving in Stoke.

Have you tried tracing them through their trade? Chris -----Original Message----- Hi Graham, I know that Thomas Bevington buried his probably first wife Sarah at Stoke on Trent in 1776. He married again at Stoke to another Sarah in 1779. He died at Penkhull in 1812. His son also Thomas died at Penkhull in 1814. I have no idea where these two Bevingtons came from. My guess is out of County so I am trying to widen the search through rootsweb to places I think may be a possible birth place. I have another family group starting with Richard Bevington. I do think there may be a connection between these two families. Richard was the father of Samuel Bevington one of the Stoke family of potters. Richard is on the 1841 census and gives his place of birth as out of County. Also I can find no baptism records in Staffs for any of the above three Bevington men. Samuel Bevingtons marriage entry has a Thomas Bevington as a witness. Could this have been Thomas Junior above? If so where they cousins/ uncle and nephew/ or maybe no link at all. I also have a marriage for Thomas Jnr above at Newcastle under Lyme. Strong Methodist family so did they walk to Newcastle rather than go to the local Anglican Church. Two years later Richard did exactly the same thing and married at Newcastle. Lots of similarities but no definate link. Any help will be most gratefully received!! Thanks to all reading this........

Hi Graham, I know that Thomas Bevington buried his probably first wife Sarah at Stoke on Trent in 1776. He married again at Stoke to another Sarah in 1779. He died at Penkhull in 1812. His son also Thomas died at Penkhull in 1814. I have no idea where these two Bevingtons came from. My guess is out of County so I am trying to widen the search through rootsweb to places I think may be a possible birth place. I have another family group starting with Richard Bevington. I do think there may be a connection between these two families. Richard was the father of Samuel Bevington one of the Stoke family of potters. Richard is on the 1841 census and gives his place of birth as out of County. Also I can find no baptism records in Staffs for any of the above three Bevington men. Samuel Bevingtons marriage entry has a Thomas Bevington as a witness. Could this have been Thomas Junior above? If so where they cousins/ uncle and nephew/ or maybe no link at all. I also have a marriage for Thomas Jnr above at Newcastle under Lyme. Strong Methodist family so did they walk to Newcastle rather than go to the local Anglican Church.

Hi Stephen probably worth pointing out that "white metal" is not silver but a base metal which would be silver plated.

Stephen, The address in 1851 19 crt in Bromsgrove St 8 house back of 15 (19 crt is the back of #15) 1861 he moved house to #5 Bromsgrove St is still there in my road map on the oppopsite side of Brum to the JQ. I would make a guess that they were silver pens. I don't think Latimer St is still there and cannot remember where it was located. Looking at my 1920 map Latimer St Sth was about half a mile or so from Bromsgrove St by Gt Colmore St. Labourers were not apprentices.

Hello Lesley, Saturday, July 19, 2008, 3:27:39 PM, you wrote: > Can you give us any more information such as names and dates, etc. If you > know who they worked for and what to find out more then Birmingham Central > Library archives holds a lot of information Hello, Sorry for my late reply, I was the original poster. My ancestor was Richard Morris. On the 1841 census he was living in Bromsgrove Street. The 1851 census elaborates that he lived at number 15, 19 Court 8 H Bromsgrove Street. Can anyone explain the 19 court, 8H bit? I thought it meant the 19th Courtyard behind the 8th House but there seem to be an awful lot of people living in 19 Ct on that census page. In 1861 he is at 19 Court, 5 House, so does this mean he moved a few doors up? In the 1871 census he had moved to Latimer Street South, 1 Court No. 2. One of his sons was listed as a Silversmith's labourer. Does this mean he was an apprentice or was a labourer less than that? I haven't got a map of Birmingham. Would these roads, in the St. Martin's district, be in the jewellery quarter? Do any of those roads survive today? In 1871 a daughter is listed as a pen maker. Could this be another link to the JQ? Was the JQ also famous for pens as well as jewellery? Doesn't it have a pen makers' museum today? I will have to visit it. I don't know whether Richard worked for himself or for a larger company; how would I find that out? Curiously I have just received Richard's wife's death certificate. Whereas on all of the censuses and certificates Richard was listed as silversmith, on this certificate he is listed as "pencil base maker (journeyman)". What is a pencil base? Since he passed away before his wife, I am puzzled why he had a posthumous career change! I presume these pencil bases were made of silver and that both descriptions were accurate? To answer my earlier question, his widow was not the person of the same name at the workhouse; I found her living at 15 court 5 House, Latimer Street, South in 1881, so again a move of a few doors. She was living with one of her sons (not the son mentioned above). This son was working as a white metal stamper. I presume the "white metal" was silver? Would he have been stamping jewellery out of silver sheets? Thanks, Stephen.

Ray Many thanks for the link to the Old Ladywood website. It may very well lead to more information about my grandfather's accident. It's a great website and may also help to fill several gaps in my family's history. Meanwhile it's really good to be reminded of old Ladywood. As a small child I used to visit my grand aunts and uncles in Alston Street and later I went to school at St Philip's, next door to the Oratory, on Hagley Road.
