Lloyd Lidgemoor Weobley Hereford

[SloopJB]

Please does anyone have any connection or information relating to the family of George 37 and Mary 38 Lloyd of Lidgemoor Weobley, Hereford as recorded in the 1891 Census ?

It would be great to hear from you.

Do you know Mary's maiden name?

If you do I might be able to find the marriage date for you unless you have it already of course.

Ivor,

Do you have a marriage index for Hereford ?

It is a bit chicken and egg, the maiden name will be on the marriage certificate, but is rarely recorded on say a baptism record.

I think I have it I will check and let you know my assumption.

Only other way is to list all the George Lloyd's, I can imagine it would be a long list.

Thanks, SloopJB.

Birth registration of Edith LLOYD (Dec qtr 1879 at Weobley reg district vol 6a, page 525) will give your Mary's maiden name.

George and Mary A (spelled LOYD) are in the 1881 census of Weobley with children James, Edith and George.

This looks as if it could be George in the 1871 census of Kings Pyon:

RG10/2708, folio 31, page 10
Upper Lidgmoor

Susan BENNETT Head Widow 52 Smockmaker? Kings Pyon Herefordshire
William LLOYDE Son Unmar 23 Labourer Weobley do
Mary do Daughter Unmar 19 Domestic unemployed Kings Pyon do
George do Son Unmar 16 Labourer do do
George do Grandson 1 Worcester

And in the 1861 census of Kings Pyon:

RG9/1826, folio 94, page 8
Lidgemoore

William BENNETT Head Mar 40 Ag Lab Rilsh montin? Montgomery
Susan do Wife Mar 35 Kings Pyon Hereford
George do Stepson 9 Scholar do do
Mary LLOYDE Stepdaur 11 do do do

1851 census of Lyonshall:
HO107/2492, folio 358, page 10
Village

Thomas LLOYD Head Married 47 Shomaker Herefordshire Lyonshall
Susan do Wife do 40 Wife do Kings Pion
Aness do Daur 14 Scholar do Lyonshall
Susan do do 5 do do do
John do Son 2 At home do do

There is a death registration for a Thomas LLOYD in the Dec qtr 1854 at Weobley reg district vol 6a, page 353 and one in the June qtr 1856 at Weobley vol 6a, page 309, either of whom could be George's father.

There is a marriage registration on the GRO Index for a Susan LLOYD in the March qtr 1861 at Hereford reg district, vol 6a, page 638 and a corresponding entry for a William BENNETT. Also an extracted marriage on the IGI 6 October 1836 at Almeley, Herefordshire (very close to Kings Pyon) of a Thomas LLOYD and a Susan OVEN.

Thanks everyone for your contributions.

I had concluded that George Lloyd married Mary Powell in 1879.

Mary's father was a Blacksmith William Powell if my assumption is correct.

Edith is my greatgrandmother and so I guess I ought to buy her birth certificate. Is the mother's maiden name recorded on certificates at this date.

I started family history when my daughter was born and it took me over 21 years to find out about the Lloyds of Hereford.

My gran was illegitimate and never knew her mother only her name, she was born in Feb 1901.

My only chance to find her mother and her family was to wait until the 1901 census was released and hope.

I was lucky mother and baby ( my grandmother ) were still together on census night so she did have some time with her mother even if she could not remember it. Since approx. 2002 I have been able to trace my Lloyds.

I would love to get in touch with any other Lloyds.

I think Edith died not long after the birth, certainly before 1911.

George was I think a woodman on the local estate.

Mary Ann was supposedly born in All Saints Hereford. I have not found a baptism, although I suspect her parents were William and Ann Powell.

I would be very happy to receive any further suggestions or advice re this family.

My thanks to you all.
