Find Ancestors

No Harrisons then to make the search easier. Never mind. He's bound to turn up eventually. Will take another look and see if I can find him.

Looks like James Everet was Elizabeth's brother.

Hi Astra

The witnesses on the marriage certificate were
James Everitt Utton & R.J.Davey .

John was a bachelor
Elizabeth Alice Utton was a spinster

Can you give me the names of the witnesses from the marriage certificate please Jacqueline and let me know if John was noted as Bachelor on it.

Hi Astra

My grandfather 1870 born In Eccles was a boiler maker by trade he married
Elizabeth Alice Utton 1873 born in West Ham in 1905 in West Ham
My great grand father Thomas Harrison was a Blacksmith presmuably in Manchester area.
It is my great grand father Thomas Harrison that I am trying to locate.

Thanks for your help

Jackie

1874 was given as Elizabeths birth date not the date of the marriage. .
Does the marriage cert state that he was a bachelor Jacqueline and who were the witnesses please.

It was the marriage of "1874" which threw me. (where did that date come from?) ... was actually 1905

I assume you haven't got John's birth certificate yet?

Hi Mark

John Harrison was my Grandfathers name , I was trying to find his fathers name and was asked to get a copy of his birth certificate to establish his fathers name and occupation as this would help you to trace my great grand father

Jackie

Clarification please >.........

Your title says looking for John Harrison.

Your post says looking for Great Grandfather who you now say was called Thomas .

As John was born 1870, I assumed it was his father's marriage to Elizabeth Utton in 1874 ...


Turns out the marriage was 1905

[Deceased] He was a Blacksmith probably in tme manchster area.
I hope this is of some help to you in finding my great grandfather

Jackie

Do you have his marriage certificate to Elizabeth. What does it give his Father's occupation as?

So this will be John in the 1911

My Great Grandfather was born in 1849 approx'
His son John moved to Sheppy and was a boiller maker.
He was married to Elizabeth Utton 1874 westham

Hi Jackie - do you know his occupation and roughly when he was born?

It would also be useful if you could say who your grandfather married, as we can sometimes trace parents that way.

I am trying to find my great grandfather. He came from Eccles in Manchester. I have found my Grandfather John 1870 in census
1881 and 1891 but I am not sure which family is his . He had siblings the only one for sure was Thomas who was a lot younger and emigrated to Calgary Canada
I hope someone can help me

Jackie
