    • EDWARD EVANS

      An Edward Evans born approx 1850 died: AMJ 1899 Madeley 6a 420, aged 49. This would fit with Mary Ann being a widow in 1901.
      If so his parents were Samuel & Jane (farming labourer). Edward was 1 in 1851 census.
      He could be a Postboy aged 44 in 1891 therefore born approx 1847.

      Another possibility in 1891 census - Hockley Road, Broseley with brother-in-law James Beaumont & Fanny:
      Alfred 21, James 20, Edward 18 (brickyard labourer, born Broseley), Martha, Henry 12, Steven 9. 1881 census - parents = John & Sarah (coal miner). His age is nearer to Mary Ann's but could not find a death..

      Info received from contact M. E.:
      Funeral in Broseley 20 May 1899. Possibly had a brother Albert. He had been a member of Court Rose of the Green (Masonic Lodge).

      FORESTER'S FUNERAL. On Monday, the remains of the late Mr. Edward Evans were interred in the Cemetery, the Rev. G. F. Lamb, M.A. (rector) officiating. Deceased, who had been employed by Mr. Thomas Instone for some years, was well known and respected, as was evidenced by the large number of friends who attended the funeral, including a deputation from Court Rose of the Green No. 3353, A.O.F. (of which deceased had been a member) attired in the usual regalia. Mr. Albert Evans, C.R, effectively read the funeral oration of the Order.
