Thank you John Court.. you sent me this years ago, I saved it, and have figured it out! I am 99.99% POSITIVE this is my earlier family!

I think that this is Alfred's (Shorty) earlier family. They appear to have had money, at least while the Father in law was alive, as they had a house servant.

57 Prospect Row, Redditch 1851
Age Born about Birth Place Occupation
John Court 29 1823 Redditch Fish hook maker
Jane Court 24 1828 Bromsgrove Fish hook bender
John William Court 7 1844 Redditch Scholar
Anna Maria Court 5 1846 Redditch Scholar
Emma Court 2 1849
Ellen Court 1 Mo 1851
Joseph Manley Butcher & Father in Law
Also had a house servant

53 Ipsley Street, Redditch 1861

Age Born about Birth Place Occupation
John Court 38 1823 Redditch Fish hook maker
Jane Court 33 1828 Bromsgrove Fish hook bender
Emma Court 12 1849 Redditch Fish hook bender
Ellen Court 10 1851 Redditch Scholar
Selina Court 7 1854 Redditch Scholar
Harriet Court 9 Mo 1860 Redditch

Living at 137 George Street, Redditch 1871

Age Born about Birth Place Occupation
John Court 48 1823 Redditch Fish hook maker
Jane Court 43 1828 Bromsgrove Fish hook bender
Selina Court 17 1854 Redditch Needle Maker?
Alfred Court 8 1863 Redditch Scholar*****
Frank Court 6 1865 Redditch Scholar
William Court 1 1870 Redditch

MY GG Grandfather is Alfred*****, born 1863. He married an Emma (still do not have info on her yet), and had a son named William (This is MY G GF, JOHN WILLIAM I have mentioned in previous posts) I do not know (yet) if Alfred & Emma had other children (want to find them!) but I know John William was called Willie, and he married a Winifred Gallagher.

1910 Federal US Census, Brooklyn NY:

Alfred Court, age 48 (GG GF)
Emma Court, age 48 (GG GM)
William Court, age 22 (G GF)
Winifred Court, age 19 (G GM)
William Court, age 1 1/2 (Gt Uncle)

The above mentioned Little William is my Grandfathers oldest Brother =)

If anyone finds any of these matches, please message me!

Oh my goodness! I am hammering my head trying to compile my husbands family tree - and randomly came about your post.

In short - we are related. But the long of it is that I have much more going both back and forward from John and jane!!

Let me know where you have left off and I will let you know where I am.

We are tied through Frank Court.I have a copy of their immigration record coming into the US with John and Jane and then william (frank) and alfred
