PLANT - Derbyshire (County, DBY, England)
Looking for information on the Plant family. James Plant (lacemaker) the son of Benjamin Plant (also lacemaker) married Sarah Holloway 1838 Crich, Derbyshire. Their son George was born 1840, Chesterfield. 1841 census shows them all living together at Basford, Nottinghamshire. Sarah died 1846 in Staffordshire with her brother as the informant. By 1851 census George was living with his mothers family in Tamworth, Staffordshire, his father was not present. Unable to pinpoint a death for James?? Anyone have any connections? It would have to be via James Plant as George Plant was apparently an only child.
