Hi

Thanks Graham, thats certainly given me and my fellow Griffiths researchers food for thought. And a general thanks for the great work you are doing re baptism records!

The two Giles and Sarah Griffiths families on 1841 census Ruardean are certainly hard to distinguish but from your info it seems that the Meek family are involved with the Griffiths- again.

1841 Ruardean Village HO107/365/10 folio 9
Sinder Hill -( Cinderhill )

Giles GRIFFITHS 40 Collier
Sarah 45
Mary 20
James 15
Ann 10
George 8 ?
Henry 6
Thomas 4
Giles 1

and

1841 Newmans Bottom ( near High Beech)
Giles GRIFFITHS Giles 45
Sarah 40
Elizabeth 20
Eliza 15
Giles 3
Catherine 6 months

I have a birth cert of Giles Griffiths 1840 showing Sarahs maiden name to be Morgan and so maybe we now know that the other Sarahs name was Meek.

Does you baptism records show mams maiden names by any chance cos its getting so hard to differentiate who is who. As you can see from census it looks like Mary and Elizas parents were different.

Any thoughts welcome.
