I am trying to link my husbands Slater family to Tanner family. On the 1841 census John and Harriet Slater have in their household John Frederick Tanner age 4 and Harriet Tanner age 2 . living Saddleworth. On the 1851 census I have John and Sarah Tanner with their children John F, Jane H, Thomas H, and James W. living Friezland, Saddleworth. I sent for the birth certificates for James and Jane H and it gives the mother as Sarah Tanner maiden name Slater. I feel this does make a connection but I am not sure whose daughter Sarah was. Can anyone help please.
Thank you Sue Slater

Look for the marriage between Sarah Slater and a male Tanner

Presumably, there are ages on the 1851 census which will give you some idea of time-scale.......and birthplace info for Sarah

Try looking for Sarah's baptism.........

Have you looked for Sarah in 1841?

As advised above.....look for her baptism

1851 census must say how old she was......and where she was born

You could have found the marriage..................perhaps you didn't know about the LancsOPC site.

Put it in your favourites................

The nearest I can get I can find a baptism for Sarah Salter at St. Chad's Saddleworth 12th February 1816 mother Mary but no father's name my John Slater 1793 had a mother Mary and father Moses but in 1816Mary probably would be over 40.

The 1816 baptism is of an illegitimate child - no father's name

Hi Thanks for your help. My John Slater is John Slater 1793 my husbands gt gt grandfather and it is with him and his wife Harriet that Frederick and Harriet and Harriet Tanner are with on the 1841 census, that is why I feel Sarah is connected to him some way but I have as yet not been able to make that connection.

Looking at the dates it could be his and Harriet's daughter who had married and left home in 1836. That is my problem I cannot find a birth which fits. but can think of no other reason why the children should be with him.
