I am looking for any information about my GGgrandparents George[b 1819] and Lucy [nee Lambert b 1819].I seem to have hit a brick wall.Thanks in anticipation.

What area are we looking at?

Georges surname was Roberts.

If this is their marriage then the cert. will give you their father's names and occupations:-

If that is them, then here they are in 1841:-

Name: George Roberts
Age: 20
Estimated birth year: abt 1821
Gender: Male

Civil parish: Wolverhampton
Hundred: North Seisdon and East Cuttlestone and South Offlow
County/Island: Staffordshire
Country: England

Street Address:

Occupation: Bricklayer

Registration district: Wolverhampton
Sub-registration district: Wolverhampton Western
Neighbors: View others on page
Household Members:
Name Age
George Roberts 20
Lucy Roberts 20
Joseph Roberts 1
Ann Roberts 6 day
Sarah Lepscoom 13

but on this census George is noted as not being born in the same county?

That certainly looks like them. I do not know how to go further back in the line.

You need to buy their marriage cert. to find out their father's names. This will help confirm anything you find on the IGI (International Genealogy Index).

You can find this on familysearch.org

Possible for Lucy (name could be mistranscribed)

LUCY LAMBETH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 28 FEB 1819 Saint Peter Or Collegiate, Wolverhampton, Stafford, England
Father: JOSEPH LAMBETH
Mother: ANN

could be worth keeping on file?

Thanks for your help

In case you don't have it here's 1861

Name: George Roberts
Age: 42
Estimated birth year: abt 1819
Relation: Head
Spouse's name: Lucey
Gender: Male
Where born: Wolverhampton, Staffordshire, England

Civil parish: Wolverhampton
Ecclesiastical parish: St Paul
County/Island: Staffordshire
Country: England

Street Address:

Occupation:

Registration district: Wolverhampton
Sub-registration district: Wolverhampton Western
ED, institution, or vessel: 13

Household schedule number: 147
Household Members:

George Roberts 42
Lucey Roberts 42
Evan Roberts 12
Lucey Roberts 10
Jane Roberts 8
Jamima Roberts 5
Joseph Cope 70 - lodger

which also gives George's place of birth as Wolverhampton.

There are several possibilities on the IGI for George, but you would need to know the name of his father to be sure of any.

Do you know if he had any siblings?
