Hi I have another family who have gone missing in 1881 I'm hoping another pair of eyes might help

James Sylvester Carlan Manchester1845-1891 married Elizabeth Purcell Cheshire in 1873 Nantwich Cheshire
they had James Sylvester 1874-1897 Chorlton Lancashire
Mary Ellen 1875
Elizabeth Ann 1877 Chorlton
Maria
Beatrice 1888 Manchester
I've got 1891 James in workhouse and Elizabeth with 2 children
Not sure if Mary Ellen and Maria are the same person so hoping the 1881 census would prove one way or the other
that's if we can find the 1881 census
Thank you

Thank you for all that I have most of it If Maria was born 1880 she would have been 19 when married which is ok but still not found a birth their is one in Sheffield? 1884 which would make her 15 when married
This is why I wanted the 1881 census to see how many children they had and their ages
The marriage is right the tree that corrected the name on census is a relation but she hasn't got them in 1881

Thank you for trying

Not to sure about the birth That is the one I've seen but that means she would have been15 when she married and her fathers name is James Sylvester Carlan I think this person has gone for this birth because the mothers name is Elizabeth Purcell

That about the sick pay is good so we have his address for 1888
Why would they stop his pay ? he died in 1891

Thank you for your help

ArgyllGran

ArgyllGran Report 26 Aug 2019 13:43

It doesn't say they stopped his sick pay.

It sounds as if he had been their treasurer , or in a similar position of trust, and had either resigned or been sacked.

Or maybe some sort of insurance agent, going house to house to collect money??
