William SHORT

Emma first appears in records m the 1841 census for Price Street in the district of St. Mary's. This census was taken in June 1841. I found this entry on 1841, Birmingham 4+, HO 107/1143 for House 2, Court 15, Price St. (Price Street seems to have run between Loveday St. and Lancaster Street more or less where St. Chad's Ringway now runs at the back of the Dental Hospital. St.Mary's Church was built as an annexe of St. Martin's from l779 onwards: elegant Georgian terraces once surrounded it. It became a Parish C'hurch in the 1830s but fell into decline and was eventually demolished. Price Street did not contain elegant Georgian houses but rather the smelly, insanitary courts ol back-to-back houses inhabited by the working classes of old Birmingham. In 1835 Price Street was on the northernmost edge of Birmingham.

Selina SLATER

email from Mike Short 13.9.2006
Previous marriage of Selina SLATER to unknown PARKES not traced. Daughters by previous m. rec. on 1861 cen as Mary C PARKES and Caroline A PARKES but b. not traced and not found on later Cens. despite young ages, but note Caroline A PORTER of correct age found with Selina SLATER’s parents in 1871. On 1851 (shown as NATER on Ancestry), Selina with parents, unmarried. On 1861 as Head of family, widow, with daughters and parents, shown on Ancestry as PARKER and parents wrongly rec. One known sibling Amelia Hargrove SLATER b. 17 Aug 1835, bpt. 12 Oct 1835, Handsworth.
It had been hoped that his second wife might have shown a link to witnesses at his first marrige and to an earlier SHORT/PARKES marriage. Unfortunately, Selina SLATER's first PARKES husband has not been found. If you find him - please let me know!
