Was the last child of Samuel and Ann this one?

St Leonard's Shoreditch

James Flowers bap 6 Jun 1824 son of Samuel Flowers (occ dyer) and Ann. Address Davis' Place

There's a burial for an Ann Flowers of Davis' Place 15th Sept 1825 at St Leonard's Shoreditch (LMA records). She was 38 which is just about old enough.

UPDATE: looks good, as I see Samuel was a labourer of Saunders Gardens for the bap of your ancestor Mary Ann, but a dyer of Saunders Gardens for at least one of the other baps (I looked at James 1813). So the occ and the addresses tie everything together.

Thanks so much for all that Merry, very useful. I've now been inspired to do more hunting relating to her husband, but unless he ended up in the workhouse I'm stumped. He is going to have to wait 'till it's his turn on here!

I think it probably is, but in the census is listed as a labourer but was a silk dyer and is on daughter's marriage cert in 1847 as a Silk dyer.

As I said, think he needs to wait his turn!

Sue, remember the silk industry was declining through the 19th century - a lot of my weavers/dyers in the Shoreditch area became hawkers or labourers about that time.

Which census were you looking at? The person I saw (think it's the same man in 1841 and 1851) was a labourer on one census and a dyer's labourer on the other one. (Don't remember which way round it was now!)

Merry, If you are looking in on this again.......
I found the likely man in 1841 in workhouse as a labourer, I've been unable to find him in 1851 (I only have access to ancestry) If you can find him in 1851 can you point me in the right direction?
