What was the name of the third child? And where were these children born? That would help pin them down on the 1851.

I made a mistake! Henry and Jane Green were NOT in the 1841 census at Sidlesham but their 3 children were. They were living with Henrys cousin James Green and wife Jane, did they both die?

Hi again, I have been looking at this more closely and many of the family (and neighbours) were fishermen. Henry could have been at sea or could have perished at sea. Jane, wife of James has remarried by 1851 - James was a fisherman who presumably met with that particular fate. Alfred appears to have married an Ellen Green (cousin most likely) and was a Navy pensioner in 1871 and 1881. In 1861 Ellen is on her own as fisherman's wife. It was not unusual for the men in a family to progress from fishing to Merchant Navy or Royal Navy - I have a number who did both. I cannot find Henry or Jane in 1841 but have found a Jane in 1851, 61 and 71 born around 1797 in Sidlesham who would fit as Henry's wife - EXCEPT that she is described as single in each. I cannot find her for certain in 1841. I have no idea whether this was Alfred's mother - but they are living in the same road in 1871. I will send the images off list so see what you can make of them! cheers, Anne > From: vestlaybanks@btinternet.com> To: heather.brooks@virgin.net; SUSSEX-PLUS-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Tue, 9 Oct 2007 15:04:27 +0100> Subject: Re: [SXP] Green> > What was the name of the third child?> And where were these children born?> That would help pin them down on the 1851.> > Suzie (from Orkney)> > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Heather Brooks" <heather.brooks@virgin.net>> To: <SUSSEX-PLUS-L@rootsweb.com>> Sent: Tuesday, October 09, 2007 2:57 PM> Subject: [SXP] Green> > > Hi to all who replied.
