Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 29 Send Message	Hi, for a while now I've been trying to find information about my great uncle William Harris. He was born in Hanley in 1875 and moved to Wigan with his parents (Samuel and Mary) in the 1880's. In 1899 he married Edith Woolhouse in Wigan and they had a child, Samuel in 1901, they are listed on the 1901 census. This is where the trail goes cold. I know of all his brothers and sisters and their descendents but not William. I was hoping the 1911 census would shed some light on him but neither him or Edith appear to be listed on it. I can't seem to find them listed on emigration records either, could anyone help me with this? Thanks
