Classification: Query
Surnames: KINDON, KINGDOM, GLOVER, POBGEE, RICHARDSON, GERRITY, GERAGHTY, WHITEHOUSE, BATH, CADDICK, CORTRELL, JONES, EDWARDS
My gg grandfather, William Henry KINDON (son of Elizabeth KINDON) was born Jan 16, 1840 on Newport Street, Walsall, and died Aug 4, 1889 on 24 Junction Street, Walsall. He married Selina GLOVER (b. 10/1839).

After his death, Selina & many of their children emigrated to the US (primarily Lackawanna County, PA), where they eventually took on the name KINGDOM. According to the 1900 US census, Selina had 12 children, 11 of whom were still alive. I can account for 8 to 10 of them. Do any of you have any of the pieces to my puzzle, in terms of either ancestors or descendants?

1. Emily -- stayed in England. Ran off with a man, the family suspected foul play.
2. Jennie -- stayed in England. Possibly married a POBGEE
3. Agnes -- stayed in England (?) m. Arthur RICHARDSON (a distant cousin has a Walsall death announcement for a little girl, Emily Richardson, daughter of Agnes & Arthur Richardson, who died on 3/28/1891, right before her third birthday. My cousin was told by the person who sent it to her that Agnes was one of the Kindon girls.)
4. William H, Jr  m. Margaret GERRITY (or GERAGHTY) from Birmingham (daughter of Michael GERRITY and Marion BATH), emigrated 1891
5. Alice emigrated 1887, m. Job WHITEHOUSE (son of Benjamin WHITEHOUSE & Eliza CADDICK CORTRELL) from Walsall in PA
6. Richard m. Charlotte ???, emigrated before 1910
7. Harry m. Harriet ???, emigrated 1904
8. Ada emigrated 1892,  m. Charles POBGEE in PA
9. Selina emigrated 1892, m. John R JONES in PA
10. Laura emigrated 1892; m. ? EDWARDS
11. ? KINDON
12. ? KINDON

Thank you,

Alaine
