Her father was a Ralph Heyes from Aspull or Haigh. She married a William Henry and had a child, Robert Henry and Thomas Lucas.

The trouble is there were a few Heyes in Aspull/ Haigh/ New Springs at the time. I am not sure which Ralph Heyes was her father.

There is one Ralph Heyes who was the son of Giles Heyes but there was another ( maybe more people named Ralph Heyes !) Another Ralph Heyes was related to the Broomheads.

Any help again would be appreciated.

Thanks

Paul

As he puts his birthplace as Aspull. That comes under Wigan.

There are these 2 possibles...

First one might be more likely unless he was beefing up his age in the census, being married to an older woman !

Heyes Ralph - Wigan 8c 15


Births Dec 1858
Heyes Ralph - Wigan 8c 11

Hi PollyPoppet,

I am thinking that Giles is Ralphs father as in the 1871 census, I just wasn't 100 % sure that I had the right father as there were a few Heyes and more than one Ralph but I am 80% that Giles was his dad and that Giles is Ann Heyes, Grandad ?

The first thing you need is Ann Jane's birth certificate to make sure you are following the correct parents.

Im wondering if Ralph and Abraham are the same person as I cant see Abraham with an Ellen and all the children I listed on the censues

Anyone else got any ideas or can spot Abraham and Ellen, I might be missing something

Mike * Report 13 Aug 2011 12:08

Margaret Heyes born 1874 is down as stepdaughter for Ralph

Lancashire Birth indexes for the years: 1874
TICKLE Margaret - Wigan Wigan & Leigh TICKLE


So maybe Ellen wasn't married previously if this is Margaret's birth as Tickle.
