Find Ancestors

I am going back over previous messages and contacts for clues.

This is revenge Sherlock
after kimberley carter green and Haggis.

And they are so neatly put to bed and all tied up in ribbon. Did you know I found Walter James, a son of James who married Hannah/Anna in Queensland Australia. And I have a great hope that I might have located a seedling on the same side of the family.

But I digress. I am looking at page 16 of the notes. Where Susan puts question marks all over the page and says she can not look at the original images. I am doing that.

Using 1871 as a starting point I am sorting the census information into family groups. Wild differences in dates of birth and also the names. Have excluded some Winder matches. Think I may need to include them because they become Winders in 1881. All names are born in Lancashire.

Will work through and fill in census details for each. Add additional families if you wish

Right now I need to go to bed. And unfortunately I will be AWOL tomorrow.

Oh by the way be my guest start on the 1861 census if you wish!!!



1871 - William 1844, bricklayer, Alice 1849, John William 1869, Alice 1870

1881 - William Alice John William Alice Frances Jessie Blanche




1871 – John 1841, coalminer, Elizabeth 1841, William 1865, Anna 1867, Elizabeth 1869

1881 – John 1835, Elizabeth 1845 William 1865 Mary E. 1871 Elizabeth 1875 John 1878



1871 – William b. ??? Colliery Lab, Jane 1824, William 1852 (coal) Mary 1853 (glass smoother),Ann J. 1855, Maria 1862, Lydia 1864, Jane 1870

this thread keeps coming up at the top of 'my threads' as I input on abt p3. Have lost the plot since then but decided to join in again by printing it off.

A couple of pages ago it was asked which child could be the offspring of William Winder & Elizabeth Dewhurst

to eliminate
Emma b 1838 Preston mmn = Turnbull
Ruth b 1840- Preston mmn = Turnbull

also check of Wm married to Ellen Taylor age - age 19 on marriage on 22 Aug 1887 (as was Ellen Taylor)

If William & Elizabeth Dewhurst married Preston 1836 and stayed in the Preston area there are 8 children (no William) born to a Winder with mmn = Dewhurst in Broughton, Preston

if the John Winder b 1839 in your summary is this one

Births Dec 1839 (>99%)
Winder John Preston 21 567

you could discount it as (from Lancs bmd) mmn = Clayton

Lancashire Birth indexes for the years: 1839
Surname Forename(s) Sub-District Registers At Mother's Maiden Name
WINDER John Preston Preston CLAYTON

just trying to work thru the summary here - not sure I am helping much!

the Winder Dorothy Mount marriage took place in Lancaster (which again has mmn on births on lancs bmd)

there are 8 births with mmn = Mount up to 1852

the 2 witnesses to Wm/Ellen marriage?

Hi I'm back.

Refresh my memory that you have the marriage certificate for Ellen Taylor and William Winders. I can not see that written on the thread.

Will the certificate show the name of Ellen Taylor's father. That info will solve one of the major questions. By the look of the new info from lancashireAnn, I think the certificate is important.

Are we agreed that Ellen Taylor's father was Thomas Taylor.

Would you please do me a look up for this one in your Lancs records.

Births Sep 1838 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>>>>>>>WINDERS John Warrington 20 764

He is on the list of potential children of William and Elizabeth Winders nee Dewhurst.

I will go back and put notes against the other children.
