Baggaleys of Tunstall and Norton in the Moors

[LeighAnnestewart]

can anyone help me with a census look up for 1851/1841

the main couple i'm interested in are Joel and Hannah Baggaley formerly Challiner/ Challinor who i know were married in norton in the moors 29th jan 1815, they were the parents of my ancestor Cornelius Baggaley (born 1828 in tunstall). Though any Baggaleys/Baggerleys would be useful


The family are a long line of potters and glassmakers and i've noticed that in the tunstall area there was a pottery named baggerley and ball and several using the name challiner/challinor and i'm wondering if anyone has any pointers on researching old potteries


any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi there

Have you seen the great website at http://www.thepotteries.org

This has lots of information on the history of potters and pottery firms.

My forebear Rev Thomas Pennington married an Elizabeth Baggaley of Norton in 1791, according to family records. I don't know whether this is the same Norton.

Here are Joel and Hannah in the 1841 of Tunstall:

PRO Ref: HO107/993/20, folio 38, page 28

Joel BAGGALEY 47 Potter ? Born in county yes
Hannah do 45 yes
Elizabeth do 20 Potter yes
Jemima do 17 Potter yes
Hannah do 15 yes
Cornelius do 13 Potter yes

This looks as if it may be Hannah in the 1851 census of Wolstanton lodging with daughter Jemima?? I can't find Joel in the 1851.

HO107/2002, folio 455?, page 24
Schedule 77, Hall Street
