Wareing William

Mr Sparks
Searching for details of a William Wareing on 1901 census appears to be lodging with my Great grand father George A Rooker he is 8 yrs old
 
Re: William Wareing

Is George A Rooker living in Birmingham on the 1901 census? Was he born there?

I find a couple but none with a William Wareing living at the same address.
 
Re: William Wareing

They are living in Gladstone street.
William Wareing as 8yrs old a lodger b. Aston
Have looked for Wareing/Rooker marriages in case he was a nephew but could not find any.

William George H Wareing,Dec 1892,Aston, ref. 6d 434

Re: William Wareing

Found him on the 1901. Couldn't pin point the exact William on the 1911 and I don't have any credits.

A friend of mine traced her grandmother's grave in Yardley. She was suprised to see another name on the headstone, a name she had never heard. When we traced them on the census, it was a young child, the son of a lodger. We don't know if there was any relationship between the lodger and the grandmother, don't suppose we will ever find out either.

But maybe William Wareing could just have been a lodger and no relation.
 
Re: William Wareing

There is another lodger Ann Taplin age 65 widow,perhaps he is related to her.
 
Re: William Wareing

Ann Taplin is sarah's mother she remarried Stephen Taplin William Wareing is a mystery i dont think anyone would be a lodger at 8yrs old
 
Re: William Wareing

He is related to the Taplin's but as yet I have to find out exactly how - this is part of my family tree (Wareings) - there is part of the family which went to North America and some of the children appear to have been sent home and "dished" out among the family, the theory is that they are half Sioux Indian - one of them, not this one but possibly his brother was a cripple and became a gamekeeper and the other became a land owner and by all accounts part of the "County Set" there is a link and this is not clear at this time to Gately Wareings the solicitors - set up by my uncle Bernard Wareing and Stephen Gateley. As I say I have and others have been working on this for some years now.
