Fourth Generation

8. William REGESTER¹¹ was born about 1819 in Sheffield, Yorkshire, England. He died in 1893 at the age of 74 in Sheffield, Yorkshire, England. He was listed as a stone grate filer in the 1841 Census. Wife is listed as Jane. Family was living in Brightside Bierlow. Ages don't quite match. Charles W. was born while William and Charlotte were living at Snow Lane in the Crofts District of Sheffield. None of the family were listed in the 1851 Sheffield Census, the suspicion being they moved to Derby for economic reasons and moved back before Eliza's death in 1854. After returning to Sheffield, William worked as a steel burnisher.

Charles William Regester of this line was born in 1840 while William and Charlotte were living at Snow Lane in the Crofts District. Charles William is listed as William, 6 mos. Other families living nearby: Thomas Pawlis, Thomas Tomlinson.

The 1861 Census shows William and Charlotte, their children Edward, Walter, Charles W. and his wife Harriet and their son Ernest William all living a 22 court, house no. 1, Ebenezer St., Sheffield, where William was a steel burnisher and Charles was a silver chaser.

In the 1871 Census, William and Charlotte were living on Ebenezer St., St. Philip's Parish, Sheffield. Son Walter was living at home and was a groom. The 1891 Census has Charlotte and William living at 134 Arundel Street, Sheffield and was listed as a steel blade finisher. Their son Edward was living with them. In researching parish registers before 1837, John Register found that the name was spelled Redchester. In the 1891 Census, William spelled his name Register.

A William Regester, 76, died in Sheffield in the 4th quarter of 1893 (Vol. 9c, page 331).

There's a loose end line: in the 1891 Census, Tom Regester, 38, head, Elizabeth, 34, wife, Annie, 9, Arthur, 8, Wilfred, 3, and Alfred, 10 mos., were living in Brightside Bierlow.
