Hannah & Jane Gough

[p.roberts7]

Looking for any info on Hannah Gough, pre-1848.
We have her Marriage Cert, marrying John Evans, a widower, at the parish church Dudley in April 1848, when they were both "of full age". Strangely, her father's name is shown as Jane Gough, profession Millwright!
On later censuses, it would appear that she was born c1827 in Oldbury.
Can anyone find her on the 1841 Census with Jane - presumably her mother - and, hopefully, her father

ANY info will be greatly appreciated.
Regards, Pete & Sylvia

I have searched the 1841 Census - for STS/WOR/SAL but no Hannah born 1827 in Oldbury , and no Hannah & Jane .
2 points I would make -
Oldbury was part of STS in 1841
Hannah at 13 or so would be old enough to be out working, as a House Servant.
There were several Hannah's of the right age but none born in Shropshire.

All the Best

Many thanks for looking, Lottie.
On looking at the 1861 & 1871 Censuses, it looks as though Hannah was younger than we thought, and was born c1829! However, her place of birth is still shown as Oldbury.
Looks as though we'll have to take a trip to look at the Parish Regs!
