Charles on your 1881 census is presumably little Elijah Charles?

Excellent!!!!

Your John and Maria in 1841 tie in with my John and Maria in Charles' birth & baptism details that I posted above your 1851 census.

I think we are getting there don't you??

I have'nt done a thing all day except get our lunch!!!!!!

Yep, definitely getting there on the Foreman front.

I think mumof4 needs to get the birth cert of one of the children and find out Ada's maiden name before she can get stuck in with that line though.

(just adding from above above link, Minnie Selina Foreman was buried 20th Feb. 1899, her grave is shared with a George Henry Blackwell, buried 13th June 1906 aged 46)

Going by this bap I think Maria's maiden name could have been Howes.

You've worked very hard on my behalf. Thank you so much. Obviously to be 100% certain I need to order some certificates but it looks to me as if you've cracked it. My cousin in the USA will be delighted.
:-D

Chris Ho thats interesting.

Please let us know when you get the certs ??

We would all be interested............................................

I'll second that...

Oh this is interesting.
