Margaret, hope you don't mind but I noticed Derek's Derbyshire Parish Records thread was showing just below this on the board, so I have posted asking him if he can find the 1867 marriage.

Margaret

Margaret Report 4 Mar 2014 13:44

So James Lloyd - father of Frederick - must be the brother of Mary Ann's father. I'll tootle on back and see what I can find.

Potty Report 4 Mar 2014 13:29

Can trace Frederick back to 1881 - always in Derbshire: all born Derby

James Lloyd 40 - gen labourer
Mary Lloyd 40
James Lloyd 11
John Lloyd 6
Charles Lloyd 4

That is an interesting coincidence, Margaret. Lets try to trace Frederick back!

Margaret

Margaret Report 4 Mar 2014 13:13

Potty - you are not going to believe this but on 1911 census for George Henry Brindley and wife Clara they have two family members living with them - one Francis Prestbury (Clara's brother) and Frederick LLOYD a cousin !!!

Potty Report 4 Mar 2014 13:07

Margaret, going back to the earlier Derbyshire connection, I can find a possible marriage for a Thomas Brindley and a Mary Ann LLoyd in Derby in 1867 - might be worth bearing in mind, but, as you say, the birth cert is really needed.

Margaret

Margaret Report 4 Mar 2014 12:50

Thank you all for your great effortgs. I think you are right, I will have to purchase that cert to conclusively establish the maiden name. One thing puzzles me though looking at the info on the census returns posted by Mel - why was George in the Industrial School and then all over the country working when the rest of the other siblings were closeted at home ? Was he ill - or is this a different family. Most confusing !!! Tha nk you all again.

I am wondering if there was an earlier Derbyshire connection; the only bmd ref I can find for Rosanna before 1881 is this birth:

Births Mar 1874 (>99%)
BRINDLEY Rosanna Derby 7b 471

You really would be better getting George's birth cert to confirm mother's maiden name first.


This birth would fit with age shown in 1871

Oh gosh Mike - good work spotting that ! Looking at the first mariage - Mary Moulton 1868, am thinking Thomas probably born 1840's so will scratch around and see what I can find. Thanks so much for your input.

On the 1901 census it looks like his occupation is Driller at clinder works. It has Master written over the top.

Gosh you can find info quicker than I can type a reply. Thank you for the aboive replies which confirms my Thomas/Mary Ann supposition. What a shame the other children were'nt born by 1871 - it would have opened the way for progress. I shall now have to search for a marriage somewhere around 1869 onwards and hope it was the same area. Thank you all
