    Sorry for being absent again, I have been helping an adoptee with their research in the land of the living and to avoid confusing myself stayed away for a bit.

    Having some issues with this family.

    Robert Morris and Susan Davies Married Jan 20th 1829 Shrewsbury and to the best of my knowledge had 6 children which are causing a bit of a headache.

    Margaret Morris, Baptism 13 Sept 1829 abode Pooltown Father’s occupation Bricklayer

    John Morris Baptism 29 Jan 1832 abode Pooltown Father’s occupation Mason

    Mary Ann Morris Baptism 04 May 1834 abode Pooltown Father’s occupation Mason

    Eleanor Morris Baptism 24 Jul 1836 abode Pooltown Father’s occupation Bricklayer

    Ellen Morris Baptism 30 Apr 1838 abode Pooltown Father’s occupation Mason

    Elizabeth Morris Baptism 16 Aug 1840 Pooltown Father’s occupation Bricklayer


    On the 1841 Census HO107 piece 1442 Book 7 Folio 57 Page 11

    Robert is listed with wife and five children Ellen is missing however Eleanor aged 3 would be Ellen’s age. Robert’s occupation is a Mason.

    On the 1851 Census HO107 piece 2498 Folio 739 Page 33

    Robert is listed with wife and 2 children, John and Ellenor, again Ellenor’s age of 12 would be closer to that for Ellen. Robert’s occupation is a Mason.

    Later censuses have just Robert and Susan listed with Robert listed as a Mason.

    Pooltown is an area of Welshpool Montgomeryshire.

    I just can’t figure out what happened to Ellen / Ellenor prior to the 1841 census, any help would be greatly appreciated.
