Distribution of the family
name in 1881 |
Seeking ancestry of my 3xGGPs Job WHITEHOUSE (n. probably by 1794) m. by 1813 to Hannah TUCKER, somewhere in the West Midlands/Birmingham area. Marriage not found at Tipton or West Bromwich. Option may be St. Giles Rowley Regis marriage of a Job WHITEHOUSE to an Ann WHITEHOUSE on 17.4.1809.
Job possibly s/o Job WHITEHOUSE & Rachel GRIFFIS (GRIFFITHS) who m. 10.7.1784, Tipton. Currently no baptisms found for this marriage. This is speculation based on a Joseph GRIFFITHS was with the family on the 1841 census.
[Job died aged 52 on 24.12.1840 between registering his sons birth in April 1839 and the census in 1841 where Hannah was a widow living in Wood Street, of a hurt in a Coal Pit. Informant = John WHITEHOUSE of Princes End. A John WHITEHOUSE was at Princes End (a local mine). He married Sarah MASON on 25.10.1830 at St. Martin, Tipton. Their eldest child was a Job WHITEHOUSE c. 3.4.1831 at St. Martin, of Wood St. Tipton. John may the c.4.11.1810 at St. Martin s/o John WHITEHOUSE & Mary. Without a baptism for Job, this is the only tenuous link between my family and other WHITEHOUSEs in the area.]
Tipton baptisms and the 1841 census reveals the following known children: Jane (c. 1.4.1813, but d. by 1820), Susanna WHITEHOUSE (c1814), William WHITEHOUSE (c1818-1836), Jane WHITEHOUSE (c1820/1; m. 4.12.1837 Tipton = Richard STANFORD n. 1818, Engineman - 12 children), Samuel WHITEHOUSE (c1823), James WHITEHOUSE* (c1825), Nancy WHITEHOUSE (c1827/28), Rebecca WHITEHOUSE (c1830 and unmarried in 1851), Phoebe WHITEHOUSE (c1831), Job WHITEHOUSE (c1836. d. 1839), & Thomas WHITEHOUSE (n. 25.3.1839).
Phebe/Phoebe WHITEHOUSE (c1831 Tipton) married Patrick McDONALD (as Patsy McDONNER) on 25.10.1849 at Dudley PC xviii 396. Both were given as of Castle Street, Dudley. [My 2xGGPs]
*son of Job, James WHITEHOUSE (c1824), Labourer, m. Hannah THURMAN (d/o Joseph) at St. Martin's Tipton on 11.11.1844. In 1871 James was a coalminer and preacher in Tipton, with the family living next door to the THURMANs. James & Hannah WHITEHOUSE had known children: Joseph WHITEHOUSE (c1852), Jonah WHITEHOUSE (c1853), Hannah WHITEHOUSE (c1858) & Mary WHITEHOUSE (c1868), living in Coppice Street in 1871 and Canal Street in 1881. Also present in 1881 were grandchildren Mary Hannah (c1874) & Daniel BUTLER (c1876), probably children of Hannah who would have married by 1874.
Jonah WHITEHOUSE (c1853), miner = Elizabeth BURTON (poss. widow nee BUTLER) by 1874. Their known children included Joseph WHITEHOUSE (c1876), Elizabeth WHITEHOUSE (c1878), Alice WHITEHOUSE (c1879), & James WHITEHOUSE (c1.1881).
