I've got Selina in 1841, but my brain is so fuddled I can't see if you have her or not..... (sorry...early mornings)

I wondered if Ann Saunders was widowed and maybe remarried before 1841, then her new OH packed her daughters off to school in 1841. There's a marriage of an Ann Saunders to Charles Biffen in 1837 (Feb ) but, of course, they don't show up anywhere for me to see how old Ann might have been. I suppose they may have travelled from somewhere else to Bristol to marry if they are nothing to do with me!

Charles Biffen was a yeoman, bachelor, of Charlington, Somerset, and Ann was a spinster OTP(from the marriages CD).

Just to save anybody else searching, there is no Saunders listed under Coal Merchants in the 1822 Pigot's Directory of Somerset and Bristol (I spent some time last night wondering why Bristol wasn't listed under Gloucestershire in an 1822 Pigot's!). Nor 1825-6. Nor 1830 Pigot's Gloucestershire. Nor 1839 Robson's (though it's Coal Dealers in that one). Nor 1842-4. That seems to be all the relevant directories they have on Ancestry.

Bristol does tend to wander around the counties......lol
I've got Bristol records in four counties so far. So who exactly are we looking for now......I've got a new way of searching the census (no, I can't tell you....lol)

Erm... John Saunders, coal merchant, but we don't know if he died before 1841.
George Augustus Saunders who was born 1827 Bristol (St Philip) but we think he probably died before 1841. Ann(e) Saunders, John's wife or widow, don't know when or where she was born or if she remarried before 1841!! |
