Thread: William Taylor

Hoping someone can help me find William Taylor b. 1841 in Belchamp St Paul, Essex to Samuel Taylor and Elizabeth Goodey.



Their children were: Elijah b. abt 1838



Andrew William b. abt 1840



Alfred b. abt 1841



William b. abt 1841



I assume Alfred (my gt. grandfather) and William were twins. I found William on the 1851 census record but have had no luck after this, I also searched the deaths but didn't find him. Any help greatly appreciated.

How about this Susannah? Little Yeldham is less than 3 miles from Belchamp St Paul.

Thanks very much for your help!

Hi Susannah,



Do you think it's him, or not? As if not 'we' can cotinue to look for him.

Hi Slizzy,



Thanks for your reply, was just checking through my paperwork. This William Taylor could be the one I'm looking for and I realise that the place of birth could have been down wrong. I do know that William and his brothers' were all born in Belchamp St Paul. On the 1851 census William is living with his widowed mother and brother Alfred in Ridgwell.
