1819: William Wainman and Ruth Knowles had another daughter, Eliza, on November 23, 1819 in Nottinham. It is very possible that this daughter went on to marry a man named John Rose in 1838 in Radford District, Nottinghamshire. Their union produced two children- Eliza Harriet Rose (1841- unknown) and William Walter Rose (1842-1923). The 1841 Census lists John as a turner, or a lathe worker. In the 1851 Census, John is not living with the family, however, they have taken in three people who are listed within their household- James Brazier (42) a laborer, Catherine Hutchinson (20) a servant, and Catherine's daughter, Catherine Elizabeth Hutchinson (1). It is unknown what the circumstances were, but it is possible they were boarders. Eliza is believed to have lived until February 1883.
1822: Sarah Wainman is born to William and Ruth in Nottingham. Sarah marries Richard Hinde in June 1841 at the age of 19. At the time of the 1841 Census, Sarah and Richard are living with her parents William and Ruth in Nottingham with a 15 year old woman, presumably a lodger or apprentice, Matilda Talbot. Richard is a baker. In the 1851 Census, they seem to have moved to Kimberworth in Yorkshire with three children - Sarah Ann Hinde (7), Harriet Hinde (4), and William Hinde (1). Richard is now listed as a mechanic. In the 1861 Census, Richard (41) and Sarah (38) now have six children at home: Harriet (14), William (11), Eliza (8), George (5), John (2), Agustus (4 months). They are still living in Kimberworth and Richard is now listed as an iron turner and fitter. Kimberworth is still the Hinde family home in the 1871 Census. The children now listed at home are: Harriet (25), William Wainman Hinde (21), George Hinde (15), John Henry Hinde (12), and Agustus Edwin Hinde (9). By 1881, the family has moved to Brightside Bierlow in Yorkshire. Their street address is 46 Clun Road. Richard is still an iron turner and fitter at the age of 61. Sarah is 58. Their children who are at home include: George Hinde (25), Eliza Hinde (29), John Hinde (22), Augustus Hinde (20), and two grandchildren: Florence (2) and Frank (8 months). George and John have also become an iron fitters and Augustus is a plumber. The family is again in Brightside Bierlow in the 1891 Census. Richard and Sarah live with George and John. Richard is now working as a coal agent (someone who sells coal) and the boys continue their work as iron turners and fitters. Sarah seems to die in September 1898. It is unknown when her husband Richard dies.
1841: William and Ruth are living with their youngest daughter Sarah and her husband according to the 1841 Census. They are still in Nottingham and he is a silk stocking maker.
1851: William Wainman is listed in the English Census as living with his daughter Mary and son-in-law William Clayton and their two children. William is listed as a framework knitter, as are both his son-in-law and daughter. His grandson, Edwin (12) is listed as a scholar and his granddaughter, Emma is listed as a lace drawer. This description may have meant that she made lace underwear for ladies.
1853: William dies in September 1853 in Nottingham at the age of 73.
