Hi . Not quite the right date but I have a George Davis b.Ilkeston , 1881 . Not too far away . He was the son of William and Harriet ( Brook ) . Regards , Derek Whitwam -----Original Message----- From: June via Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2015 10:38 AM To: 'Lin' ; [email protected] Subject: [YORKSGEN] SMITH, MARSTON, TURTON, CHARLESWORTH At Lin's request am posting one of my brick walls. It was posted before, but there might be new thoughts on it. The 1911 Census for Whitworth's Building, Rotherham gives the following details George Davis, 27, coal miner, born Normanton Yorkshire Susannah, wife, 24, born Darfield Susannah, daughter, 3, born Thurnscoe Florence May, daughter, 2, born Thurnscoe Susan Smith, Mother in law, married, 63, born Clay Hills Shropshire Emily Turton, adopted daughter, single, 19, born Jump Yorkshire William Hughes, boarder, 61, colliery labourer, born Black Heath, Staffordshire. I am trying to find the connection between Emily Turton and Susan Smith (nee Marston) to see if there is a blood relationship or whether it was just that Susan was a friend who adopted Emily and her sister Florrie (legally or not). In 1901 Emily and Florrie are with their father Thomas Turton, who is a widower. I've checked their mother's maiden name which is Charlesworth. Am I clutching at straws trying to find a connection or is it more likely, as I am thinking, that Susan took in the child of a friend and 'adopted' her. Thank you.
