| Notes |
- James is the son of Benjamin and Mary according to English baptismal records. He was baptized on May 26, 1805 or 1806 depending upon which translation is read. He was born in Dudley, Worcestershire, England according to the 1851 census.t the researcher needs to know is that Dudley, Staffordshire, England was part of the county of Worcestershire, England for many years meaning that his parents still lived near Rowley Regis, Dudley, Staffordshire, England where they grew up when James was born. He likely has siblings or cousins named Benjamin (b.1804) m. Fanny, Samuel (b. bef 1810) m. Elizabeth, Benjamin (b. 1803) m. Sarah, and Josh (b. 1802) m. Ann who all gave their birthplace as Dudley, Worcestershire, England in this census. There is a John Dimmack in Dudley, Worcestershire, England that might be a brother of this James who was having children in 1824 in Dudley. In that same town, a Mary Ann Dimmack married in 1848 who could be a daughter of this James also. (C-2580)
As for his parents, there is a John Dimmock, b. abt. 1777 in Dudley, Worcestershire, England who was still in residence in Dudley in the 1851 census, though it's county location was now listed as Staffordshire, England. His wife's name was Ann. If John is James' father, it's not a name carried down in the family. Any of the following newspaper entries might apply to this James. There is only 1 James Dimmock anywhere in Staffordshire in the newspapers. Though he appears to be of higher standing than that of a coal minor it still might be the 1 James Dimmock who is in the 1841 and 1851 census records as well as the news for Staffordshire.
