UPDATE, IF someone could please just look at the 1841 census image on FMP (it's not on Ancestry as far as I can see?) for James Whitman as posted below by Polly Poppet and just check the Childrens ages for me. Christina in the following post has found them on 1851 ...but 3 children short. Nothing else needed but this would be a big help.

Thankyou



James Whetman ( often mistrans' Whitman ) was born abt 1838/9 in Woodcote, Oxfordshire.

he married twice
James Whetman 24 Nov 1860 Ann Sarah Budd
Saint John The Evangelist


James Whetman 24 May 1885 Jane Daws
Saint John The Evangelist Lambeth

in both cases his father is listed as
William Whetman Blacksmith

Can anyone locate William on any census please. or James in 41/51 .

thankyou

oooh thankyou so much Christina and Polly poppet :))

I've been on there all day and my eyes just won't focus anymore ... trying to pack everything in before my subs run out tonight lol.


I have another query if either of you can face it ? for 1871 and 1881

Ann sarah Whetman m William Fishlock in 1882... I believe her to be related to James , either daughter (or sister at a stretch) but can't find her on census before her marriage. She was born abt 1862 Kingston Surrey ( though the only birth for that year says kingsbridge which is devon but I think that is a mistransc')

Think you're right about the birth reg. This one should be Kingston 2a 215. It's a double transcription error. First when it was typed up on the image as Kingsbridge when it should have been Kingston, then transcribed by freebmd as 5b when it clearly says 2a.

Thankyou Christina :) and Polly

this is all brilliant .... I hadn't touched on this side at all really before today...though I knew that Whetman was my gt grandmothers name and she was connected to Budd family ... there is a story in the family of two Budd sisters who never married , the "two Budds that didn't blossom " lol

One fell in love with a sea captain which was fine but her sister fell in love with a waiter which was not considered suitable status ... so there was a big furore and the sea captain left...and the waiter was sent away I believe
