What is a play eyelid maker? I'm sure the first letter is an S not a P.

Wonder why the children are down as Hustings in 1841?

Yes and thank you all the above is correct....One more thing..ive not been able to find the baptism for Elizabeth 1833 Austins (hastings) ...could a fresh pair of eyes take a look for me...Many thanks x

Perhaps the enumerator wasn't from Birmingham and heard Austin as Husting?
(laughs, can't get those emoticons to work!) : :-

yes a true possiblilty greyghost

wonder what a play eye lid maker is?

on the 1851 census on Ancestry the family are WACHETT

I think the occupations of Elizabeth and Eliza on the 1851 is Stay xxxxx maker. Eyelets would be needed on the stays for the laces to go through - is that what they made?

good thinking MC :-)

wow thanks M C :-)

would it be possible to check for a death for john Austin in any wars that would have been going on between 1839-1842
