So Thomas and Mary and William and Mary were related; Wililam and Thomas were brothers, born 1789 and 1793 respectivley. Their parents were Joseph Heathcock and Prudence Fulwood. I'm eager to work back over, but I'd like to sort their somewhat confusing descendants first! I'd like to find what became of them, and who married who! I think I have quite a task ...

Oh, now I do see on 1881 ... strange! Also, I need to get the 1845 marriage as:

2. SAML. HEATHCOCK - International Genealogical Index / BI

Two Samuel Heathcock's born within a year of each other. One is William and Mary's, and one is Thomas and Mary's. Saying this, the two Samuel's shown above are cousins. I just need to confirm now whose parents are whose!

Thank you for your help; sadly no I don't know if Prudence lived past childhood. The trouble is I have a few other brothers and sisters that may died young but it is difficult looking for them as this is the period just before civil registration and ages arn't given in the indexes until about 1868.

Thank you for the info on Samuel; I have looked for him on the 1881 census but no such luck!

Possible for Samuel in 1851, 1861, 1871 1881 and 1891 with wife Eliza

Do you know if Prudence survived past child hood?

I haven't found them in later census'; I have looked but not found anything 'concrete'.

Dear all,

I am looking for info on my relations Samuel Heathcock (b. 1825), and Prudence Heathock (b. 1833). Both were born in Dudley, Worcestershire to William Heathcock and Mary (nee Robinson). I have looked for them in later records but to no avail. Can anyone help me with searching for them please?

Thank in advance!

Peter
