NEW MEMBERS Five new members since the last Journal was issued. No. 259 Mrs Frances Upson Frances is another with ancestors in Staffordshire, but this time in a different area of the county – Burton-on-Trent – as opposed to the Black Country and the Potteries where most of the Stafforshire Plants lived in the 18 th & 18 th Centuries. She forwarded the following information: “I started my research with my father GEORGE FRANCIS PLANT, born in November 1908 in Burton-on-Trent, the youngest son of SAMUEL HENRY PLANT and Mercy Florence nee Wilson . SAMUEL HENRY was born in Tutbury, [WKP note – the adjoining parish to Burton] in November 1872. Both George and Samuel Henry were employed for many years at Bass Worthington, breweries in Burton. It took me a long time to track down Samuel Henry’s parents as the 1881 Census doesn’t seem to have anyone matching that I can find. However, I did eventually discover SAMUE PLANT as his father and he has proved the most intriguing so far. SAMUEL HENRY was born to SAMUEL’s second wife, Mary, nee Rogers (from Uttoxeter). The marriage took place in April 1869. On his marriage certificate Samuel is given as a Police Officer (1) , 3 year’s .later on Samuel Henry’s birth certificate he is a Railway shunter and by the time of Samuel Henry’s marriage he is down as (deceased) journeyman baker. Quite a career change! I believe SAMUEL’s first wife was Susanna Dean, and they had 2 sons, John and Charles, born in 1865 and 1867. The 1871 Census has Samuel and Mary (2 nd wife) with sons registered in Stone, parish of Croxton town of Fair Oaks – with John and Charles having been born in Great Haywood. On SAMUEL’s marriage certificate in 1869 his father is given as JAMES PLANT (deceased) shoemaker. I haven’t found SAMUEL’s birth but it could be c. February 1831 in Lichfield to James and Elizabeth. This could be Elizabeth Charlton m. Stone, but I am now in the realms of speculation and not evidence. I would be really delighted if you have any information that can tie any of this into existing research. And where were they in 1881?” 1. The 1871 Census lists Samuel as a 1 st Class Police Officer, born Lichfield and aged 41. No. 260 Mrs Florence Crayton Another Black Country lady who contacted me as follows: “My GXG Grandparents were Bessey Plant and Thomas Cooper – Bessey’s father was Benjamin Plant. They came from Rowley Regis and Halesowen areas.” So I asked the ‘Black Country Sub Group’ for their assistance and they provided information relative to Florence’s family going back six generations to John Plant born c1792 in Halesowen. The main areas appear to be Halesowen early 19c, Rowley Regis late 19c and Dudley late 19c. If any other member thinks they may be connected to this family line, please contact me and I will post a copy of the information provided by the sub group. 17
