I didn't post 1881............wouldn't waste my time, as it isn't relevant to your request, and , in any case, you stated at the outset that you had it.

There were at least SIX registered births for his name in Manchester in 1843/4

How did you pick the one you sent for?

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 19 May 2015 16:58

Not all births were registered until penalties were introduced in 1875

Who was he living with in 1851?

What was the father's occupation?

Who witnessed the marriage?
