We believe that William Appleby, who was born in about 1831 in Stepney, was the son of Thomas Appleby and Mary Bushell. However, William has proved to be rather elusive in the records - we have only found him in two censuses (1841 and 1871) and we have not managed to find a marriage for him to Sarah. According to his son's marriage entry, William was a pianoforte maker, though in the 1871 census his occupation was picture frame maker.
William and Sarah appear to have only had one child - Walter Appleby, born in 1859 but not christened until he was aged 11 years. Walter was a tennis bat maker, and we know of seven children from his two marriages.
If you can tell us more about this family, do please get in touch!
