Lorton family (yet again)!!

[negritaspider]

Hi Shear,
Could you see is you've got anything registered for the following? :
Samuel Isaiah born 1841
Eliza M born 1844
Joseph H born 1848
Alfred I born 1851
- Samuel is sure to be parents Thomas and Martha...
The other three I can't find anything on them for Thomas and Martha - hoping you can.....
The older children of Thomas and Martha you have already given me, all christened at St Martins (William 1826 through to Paul 1837).......
Many thanks for anything you can find! :biggrin:

 

[Shera]

nothing im afraid.

maybe they were christened at another church. ive checked everything i have but no good. sorry

Hi Shera,
I didn't really think you'd find anything - these are the kids that suddenly appeared on the 1861 census with Martha Lorton (become Sanders)...
Hence my thread re the Cholera epidemic also...
Thanks so much anyway!

[Shera]

hey Shera,
You do realise I've also got Sanders in my family list now, :biggrin:
Only by remarriage, though!

 

[Shera]

hi negrita

you ll have to let me know your sanders although there were quite a few of them around brum. ive only got my sanders line back to 1801 but they were all born and lived in bham.

Hi Shera,
Thanks to Alberta's info, I've now been able to pin down the death of Thomas Lorton (born c1811, married to Martha Slater), it's showing on freeBMD as 1Q 1856 Birmingham 6d 26.
Do you have anything on the church records for his death?

This date ties in perfectly with the re-marriage of Martha Lorton with Timothy Sanders in 1857 (this is the only Sanders I have on my family history).......

 

[Shera]

nothing listed negrita. the only burial for a lorton is 1n 1837 child of john and mary. as far as i know i dont have a timothy sanders in my tree.
