Jill. A correction on 1851 Census.Your Great Grandfather was 5months old. His father(your Gt. Gt.Grandfather) was John Proverbs aged 25 - a coaldrawer.He is listed in the census as being the son in law to the "head" of the house John Griffiths aged 70.
Your Gt. Gt. Grandfather aged 15 lived at 23 Hall End Wednesbury (1841 Census)and his father - John Proverbs was aged 40. He is your Gt. Gt. Gt. Grandfather (and mine!)He was born in Newcastle Northumberland in 1799.
Most of the basic info. for this is in a 19th century family bible in my possession.
