Additional Information

In the 1841 Census, Joseph was living with his parents in Tufton. In 1851, he was an unmarried servant in Wherwell. In 1861, Joseph, Emily and four of their children were living at "Chapmans", Sonning. There is some uncertainty about the year of William's birth, since his age in 1861 was given as 4 years (i.e. born in 1857), whereas in 1881 he is shown as 29 years (i.e. born in 1852). The GRO Indexes confirm that 1857 is correct.

In 1871, the family was still living in Eye & Dunsden, but only four children were listed, Martha, Rhoda, Louisa and Joseph. In the 1881 census, Joseph and family are to be found living in Park View Cottage, Tilehurst, on the outskirts of Reading BRK with a lot of lodgers, mostly militiamen, whilst daughter Rhoda was a servant living closeby in Tilehurst. In 1891, they were living in Caversham, but only Joseph was living with his parents.

In 1901 Joseph and Emily were back in Eye & Dunsden, this time without children. In 1911, Joseph was widowed and living with son Charles and his family in Eye & Dunsden.
