PARRY family, wolverhampton

[kiterunner]

Oooh... how about this family in 1851?!
Tedds(?) Street, Wolverhampton
Sharlot Lamsdale Head Widow 34 Laundress Herefordshire Luckton (?)
Richard Lamsdale Son 4 Staffordshire Wolverhampton.

And could this be the same William (also in 1851)? He has a son Charles about the right age to be the one on the 1881 census:
Comet Yard, St Giles, Cambridge
William Game Head Mar 40 Labourer Cambridge
Maria Do Wife Mar 32 Do
Charles Do Son 14 Labourer Do
Joseph Do Son 12 Do Do
Frederick Do Son 10 Do Do
William Do Son 2 Do
Richard Do Son 1m Do
Ann M Do Dau 8 Do
Harriot Do Dau 4 Do

Have to see if we can find them in 1861 to see if their William is still with them or not.

I think they may have returned to Cambridge.

From 1861 and CAMDEX it would seem:

Maria may have died in Cambridge in 1855. Record on CAMDEX but aged 40.
Charles is in Cambridge aged 22
Joseph is in Cambridge also aged 22 but they are not together.
Frederick I've not found (haven't loked properly yet)
William may have died in Cambridge in 1856. Record on CAMDEX aged 7
Richard may have died in Cambridge in 1855. Record on CAMDEX aged 4
Ann may have died in Cambridge in 1855. Record on CAMDEX is slightly too old at 14 (But FreeBMDdoes have this death as Ann Maria).
Harriet may have died in Cambridge in 1854. Record on CAMDEX aged 6

lol We were probaby doing those lookups at the same time as I ate my lunch before clicking Submit!!

So, as Maria seems to have died, I wonder why William didn't marry Charlotte? (assuming he didn't!) And why doesn't she seem to have married any of her partners?

[Merry]

Kate, have you come across anyone to fit this? I don't see why it would be 'our' William, but......

Marriages Jun 1862
Banks John Wolverhampton 6b 589
Game William Wolverhampton 6b 589 <<<<<<<<<<<<<
HUBEL Margaret Wolverhampton 6b 589
Wild Ellen Wolverhampton 6b 589

I can't find them in 1861 at the moment.

There is a possible baptism for Richard Lamsdale on FamilySearch:
Samuel Richard Lamsdale 23 May 1847 St Peter Wolverhampton, parents John Lamsdale and Charlotte.

Births Jun 1847
LANSDALE Samuel Richard Wolverhampton 17 398

There's a death registration for John Lansdale Oct-Dec 1849 Wolverhampton, so if that's him, Charlotte was really a widow in 1851 (well, assuming she was married to him in the first place - not found the marriage yet).

[Merry]

not found the marriage yet

I have lost the will to live over that one!

I expect John is John Lambsdale aged 15 in Wolverhampton in 1841 (poss with father Elias 40 a locksmith)
