I'm trying to find out about a lady called Charlotte Reaney who died early 1879, aged 70, somewhere in Ecclesall Bierlow.

Any information about other people living with her at the time of the 1870 (or earlier) census would be appreciated.

1871 (Image is VERY faded)

Ancestry transcription reads Beaney but someone with the username Martinrodgers has added that its Reaney, but they don't have any trees online.

Reads:

George Reaney, Head, Aged 50, Table Blade Grinder, born Birmingham, Warwickshire

Charlotte Reaney, Wife, Aged 62, Born Sheffield

Address looks like 223 Langsett Rd

..and that could be her mother and brother in the 1841 household.

Not sure why George isn't buried in the same grave. This may be him:

Grave Number 105, Section W of Burngreave Cemetery, Sheffield.

Buried with people called DUNWELL/DUNWILL and HILL.

Two baptisms from Indexers:

Baptised May 24, 1837, by W F Wilkinson at Sheffield Parish Church, Church Street, Sheffield.

Parents name(s) are Charlotte & George (Grinder).

I assume this is at Sheffield Parish Church. The date would be April 17th.

Hilldweller hangs head in shame. :ph34r: The family member who gave me the information and was sure of it's accuracy has now found the black edged funeral card and admits he was "a bit out"

The lady in question was called Catherine Reaney (not Charlotte) and was interred in Dronfield Churchyard on 29 May 1877, she was 77 years old and died on 26th May.

Apologies to all those who "chased" the other lady and I will quite understand if Hilldweller is told to take a hike (on his scooter).

Sorry to be a bore but SWMBO now "requests" that I find out about her great grandma.

When I can get down town to the Archives I understand I shall be able to buy some look-up credits but meanwhile I'm trying to find out the name of the mother of Charlotte Morris who was born in 1883 in a little cottage at the bottom corner of School Road, Beighton. The cottages are still standing. I'm particularly interested in the maiden name of Charlottes mother. Family lore has it that she was a daughter of Henry Pawson the Sheffield publisher and printer. We have a family photo of a very well dressed woman who is believed to be Mary Pawson, Charlottes mother, who died giving birth to Charlotte.

Brilliant that RichardB, my wife has copies of the funeral cards of all those mentioned there.

If you could find something similar for the 1881 census then we might be in business.

When I put the name Charlotte Morris born 1883 into the Ancestry site it tells me the names of the parents are available for a fee. Unfortunately I've got a pathological aversion to continuing subscriptions. I shall try and buy a few tokens or whatever the're called.

If I may just say, I have absolutely no idea what any of this means - that's your job; pleasure to be able to try to help.

The Pawson Census images might be quite an interesting read regardless. One for "the list" ...
