BURROWS

[taximom]

I am looking for the geneology of John Burrows, born 1835, Great Coggeshall, Essex, England; died 1902, West Ham,England. Married to a Sarah Kipling. Need to find his parents. Any help greatly appreciated.

I have found him

they live in Stoneham Street, Upper Or Back Lane, Great Coggeshall

in 1841 there are 3 children

John born 1835 he was a shoe maker
Joseph 1838
Maria 1840(although the census transcript shows 1841) but she is 10 months which would take her birth to 1840.

The parents were John born 1811
Maria born 1812

There is also a Benjamin Goarding aged 16 living at the house he was an apprentice but the first word is hard to read

RG number HO107 Piece 335 Folio 4 page 2

I hope this helps

ten years later he is living with his Aunt and Uncle in London

8, Pelham Street, Christchurch Spitalfields, Tower Hamlets

he is a shoe and bootmaker and is his Uncle


Benjamin Gooding 26 Essex (I wonder if he is the Benjamin on the 1841 census and therefore Maria's brother)
Eliza 26 from Hertfordshire
Samuel 4 Middlesex

Like all Burrows family they certainly did have a lot of kids

John and Maria are on 1851 Census with 6 of their children, we also have John who is living with relatvies.

Joseph and Maria, we know about

they also had
Ann 1843
Oliver 1844
Edward 1846
Walter 1851 (this should be 1850 as he was 11 months)

Upper Stoneham Street, Great Coggeshall

I could go on but... you have to do some of the work

I have moved these four posts from the Introduce Yourself thread. Taximom had posted on a Burrows thread, which has resulted in the census results. Mentions of research needs on that particular board should not be followed up.

Thanks so much for your help. Being very new to this I haven't a clue about some of the things you've mentioned but I will learn. Taximom

Thanks Christine. Late last night I decided I was going to ask Jeremy to move this to a seperate thread today.

Is it possible that these are the parents, John Burrows and Maria?

1830 John BURROWS & Mary ANDREWS, Braintree

They are in Boyd's marriage index, available online at:

https://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb....oydsindexb.htm

Braintree is 2 or 3 miles from Coggeshall.

I checked in the later census records:

1861 census
John Burrows, 52, shoemaker, born Colchester
Maria, 49, born Great Coggeshall
Ann, 18, born Great Coggeshall
Walter, 10, born Great Coggeshall
Mary, 6, born Great Coggeshall

1851 census
John Burrows, 42, shoemaker, born Great Coggeshall
Maria, 40
Joseph, 12
Maria, 10
Ann, 8
Oliver, 7
Edward, 6
Walter, 1

There aren't any parish records available for Coggeshall in 1809-10, but there are for Colcehster:

In IGI, batch C067231
Helens Lane Meeting House or Stockwell Chapel, Colchester

John Burrows, Born 7 August 1808, baptised 14 Sep 1810
