The Stafford Family

George Stafford married Jane Clee on Christmas day in 1826 in St Pancras Old Church, Middlesex.
There is not much more to tell of him other than he had died before his daughter married on
3rd August 1901.   On her wedding certificate he is recorded as having been a cabinet maker.

Unfortunately there are no census returns for either George or Jane.
Their son George Richard was born on 3rd January 1836. He married Emma Nichols on 6th July 1862

The Nichols Family

Emma's father, Samuel Nichols,  was bon in Middlesex, St James Westminster, as is consistently recorded on his census returns [1841 – 1871 incl.] It is very sad that to date no record of a Baptism or a birth for him has been found, however using the census returns as a guide he is likely to have been born c. 1803. In spite of exhaustive searches at both the London Metropolitan Archives and at the Westminster City Archives no records of any of the Nichols family have been found in St James, to date.

2 Arlington Street

 
Samuel lived most of his adult life at 2, Arlington Street - on the corner of Mornington Crescent in London, and kept his profession of House Painter/ Decorator until we hear no more of him.   Before then he lived at 9 Frederick Place, off the Hampstead Road, which is no longer there.

He and his wife Sarah [Cornell] had 6 Children.

It has not been possible to confirm a date of death for Samuel but his last census return was made in 1871, his age at that time 68 years.

Emma married George Richard Stafford in 1862. He was a boot maker. Her mother’s father was also a boot maker. Oral tradition holds that George was encouraged in his boot making by his connection to the Cornell family.
