Member Since: February 2018 Posts: 36 Send Message	Looking for the family of William Taylor born 1807 in Gt Budworth Cheshire. I believe his mother Margaret was born abt 1789 in Scotland and I think his father was also called William. Can anyone help please. Wendy

Member Since: February 2018 Posts: 36 Send Message	Hi thank you I found these but struggling to find his parents. His grandmother is on the 1851 census as living with William and his family she is down as Margaret but I can't find her anywhere. Regards Wendy

	I think the Grandmother Margaret is actually the children's Grandmother......born 1789 so too young to be William's Grandmother. She is only 18 years older than William. Do you know the wife Elizabeth's maiden name? Might it also be Taylor?? ?? TAYLOR, ELIZA MMN TAYLOR GRO Reference: 1838 J Quarter in WARRINGTON Volume 20 Page 801 ??

	It is quite possible of course that Margaret is Elizabeth's mother.

Member Since: February 2018 Posts: 36 Send Message	I believe Elizabeth's maiden name is Bowyer but I'm not 100% sure. I did wonder if she was Elizabeth's mother and just put Taylor by mistake. The William I found born 1807 had a father called William but I can't prove it. Wendy

Member Since: February 2018 Posts: 36 Send Message	Thanks for sending me all this info which i have been ploughing through.I have looked for John, Anne and Ann Taylor as obviously they dont appear on the census records i have. I have found an Anne born 1833 and died 1839 so that could be her. John born 1846 died j/f/m quarter in 1851 so that is probably why he isnt on 1851 census also. Ann born 1837 i cant find at all. I am sending for a birth certificate for either James or Jane to find out who her mother was. I have found a marriage to an Elizabeth Worth in 1824 but it would be touch and go if she was old enough to be married, although my Elizabeth's birth seems to differ on each document.Thanks everyone for your help

Member Since: February 2018 Posts: 36 Send Message	Hi I now have Jane's birth certificate b1844 a d her mothers maiden name is Taylor also. The marriage i would say is at dolphins 1827. I now think Margaret could be her mother also. Does anyone know how I can find out who their parents are as they don't appear on the Lancashire online record's Regards Wendy
