    Looking to see whether it was in the local of Tindall Street / Latimer Street & wherever the Glasscutters arms was located in 1858. In a newspaper court record, there was a pub walk from my Gt Gt grandfather from Tindall street, down hill street - I know he ended up in the glasscutters arms but...

    no. I haver a baptism record for esther baker in sept 1815 At st martins which fits but does not look like her death is registered for the burial above at holy trinity, if it is her but I just cannot validate this without the death cert. Looks like her estranged husband was a massive drunk. So...

    Hi why would there not be a GRO - Death cert for Esther? Anyone any ideas. Cant find her record anywhere. Anyone got any theories? Buried at Holy Trinity Church.

    Had a very interesting journey through the newspapers of the period. George Jr, is in there a lot due to his habitual criminality. George Sr is probably in there too. He died in a different location which puzzled me - but there was a record of him in the periodicals as living apart from his...

    Thank you Janice. Which record is this so I can have a look please. The record for 1876 where he received a 10 year custodial sentence says he has 3 previous convictions, previously managed under police supervision.

    I think we have a match here. There is mention in the Birmingham News 01/11/1858 of George Hudson committing a crime. His address is referenced as Tyndell Street. On the birth Certificate for Elizabeth Hudson, this is street is reference as where she lives so looks likely a connection. He...

    OK - I really am done for today. Checked the birth of Mary and Samuels first child esther green. She was born at Latimer Street, so Samuel was moved in and head of the household from March 1864 at the earliest. So that narrows a marriage down if there was one to around 1863-1864. There is...

    Elizabeth - confirmed my suspicion that she was the daughter of Mary Ann on the death cert (measles / Congestion) at Latimer Street. On birth Entry - born in the Workhouse, Mother Mary Ann (residence Tindel Street). The first bit I suspected. I think thats it for now.

    Likely but the address does not fit. Next I’m looking at the other sister Elizabeth who died in 1863. I think she may be Mary Ann’s daughter. Such a lot for one family to takein 5 years. Latimer street was not healthy that’s for sure. In 6years, the parents, their son his wife and daughter...

    It was confirmed as Latimer street in the death record for Emily, although she died in hospital. her father is noted as deceased at the time of her death.

    Confirmed William was deceased by the time of Emily’s passing. Her poor mother. Her death was registered by priscilla whose address is noted as Latimer street.

    I’ll order the death certificate for Emily as well. It’s just so sad.

    It was in the family at the time. His dad, died of a lung condition as did Priscilla. Sounds like TB or a similar infectious agent to be honest. Ill take some time out to the Birmingham Archives. I don't live in Birmingham so it will be a day trip out.

    There are later family links to Heaton Street. My gut tells me there is a connection. I need to go into the assize records and the coroners report for William. In violation of God - cannot be a natural death. I think a trip to Birmingham Archives is on the cards.

    I ordered a digital copy from the GRO (£2.50) and it only contains the top half of the info but I cant see the address. Ill have to order the full death certificate. The occupation fits though. That said cause of death is peculiar, Hamophysis in violation of God. I dont know what that means...

    Priscilla died in the workhouse, but the death record does not confirm her marital status. Neither does the burial record.

    I think he came from a village outside Macclesfield, Bollington where there was a stone quarry. sometimes in the census records he mentions congleton and it’s kinda between the two. It fits given his later occupation as a paviour. There are parish records but I’ve not found anything yet. But...

    I’m trying to find see if I can shed more light on the family dynamic. I’d like to know more about the brother William Hudson and what happened to him. But I just can’t trace him after 1861. There is another brother who may have been a convict but ivenot had an opportunity to dig deeper there...
