My ancestor James JEWKES was born in about 1800 in Dudley, Worcestershire, England. He married a Mary, and the family were listed on the 1841 census as follows:

1841. Grey Stone Street, Dudley
-------------------------------

James JEWKES, 41, stone miner, yes [born in this county]
Mary, 48, yes
Ann, 20, yes
Phoebe, 19, yes
James, 16, stone miner, yes
Mary, 14, yes
Sarah, 7, yes
Joseph HICKMAN, stone miner, 19, yes


[Next Door]
Thomas JEWKES, 40, bricklayer, yes
Elizabeth, 35, no
Daniel, 10, yes
Mary, 7, no
John, 5, no
Edward, 1, no


Presumably Thomas was James' brother, though I haven't proved this yet. Ann ended up marrying Joseph, who I assume was lodging with the family. The date of the marriage was 29th April 1844, according to the IGI, though I don't yet have their marriage certificate. Joseph and Ann are my direct ancestors.

I have found possible baptismal dates for James and Mary's girls from film 7133450 of the IGI:

Ann JEWKES chr. 24th Dec 1820, Dudley, James JEWKES/Mary
Phoebe JEWKES chr. 19th Feb 1837, Dudley, James JEWKES/Mary
Mary JEWKES chr. 19th Feb 1837, Dudley, James JEWKES/Mary
Sarah JEWKES chr. 19th Feb 1837, Dudley, James JEWKES/Mary
