Hope she is O.K. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dea Xxx

Sorry to hear about your grand-daughter's accident - I hope she's not injured.


Re the witness Sarah Lamar - is the name clearly Lamar?
I found two women apparently with similar surnames in the Manchester/Bolton area in 1871, but both names are mistranscriptions - one is really Turner, and the other Lomax.

Our granddaughter suffered a broken nose and badly bruised but was so lucky. The lorry in front of her braked but the lorry behind her didn't and pushed her car under the lorry. She was so very lucky. Thank you every one

Please give her a (very gentle) hug from all of us and tell her to get well soon <3

Are these connected in any way?



There was mention of a Sarah Lamer (Lemar??) here:

Dea that's brilliant. My O'Neill family ended up living in Trafalgar st in Leigh. That has to be more than a coincidence don't you think

Yes, I would think there is certainly a connection but not sure exactly how yet.

When do you have 'yours' in Trafalgar St ? - Can you post it for reference please ?

cant get my head around the connection of Michael O'Neill, Sabina, Sarah Lamar .

Neither can I but if there 'is' a connection I am determined to find it !!!!!!!!!!!!! ;-)

I have found that the name 'Lamar / Lamer' is very probably LARNER and I have found another Sabina but I will return when I have linked it all up.......

Oh Dea you are a star. I've been searching for the lamar/lamer family on any of the following census but with no luck

Dea what a wonderful idea that the name could be different .
I found the Lamars on the 1861 census as LERNER. they are living in Manchester next door to the family they were lodging with in 1851 Thomas and Catherine Toole

just looking at the 1851 and 1881 census it cant be the same sarah as the ages are out by 10 years . 1861 sarah is 20 years old and 1881 sarah is 30 years old ???

Could be just a mistake by the enumerator .
