I have a marriage certificate 1864 for a Elizabeth Turner b 1846 Manchester & James France b 1846 Manchester both living in Berry St Manchester
I know the Turner;s were living in Berry St in 1851 so it would seem they were still there but I can't find them

Could some one put a search in by using the address please for Turner
7 ? Berry St 1861.

I.ve got James France 1861 not in Berry St

Thank you

What were the father's names and occupations so we know who we're looking for?

Elizabeth's Father was Thomas Mother Ann

There don't appear to be any Turners in Berry Street in 1861 - will do another flick through the images.

At number 7 was Henry Foden and family.

I've just looked at the certificate again although they have both put Berry St in the first square it has date and under that has Berry St under that it has Stone St ??

The 1871 that malyon posted above appears to have people missing.

Here's another version:

1871 England, Wales & Scotland Census
13 Berry Street, Manchester, Lancashire, England

Household Members
First name(s) Last name Relationship Marital status Gender Age Birth year Occupation Birth place

Ann Turner Head - Female 59 1812 Housekeeper Lancashire, England
Edward Turner Son - Male 22 1849 - Lancashire, England
Elizabeth F Turner Daughter - Female 24 1847 Lancashire, England
James France Son-In-Law - Male 25 1846 Railway Porter Lancashire, England
Richard France Grandson - Male 2 1869 - Lancashire, England
Mary A Royle Boarder - Female 22 1849 - Lancashire, England
Joseph Simister Boarder - Male 23 1848 Railway Porter Lancashire, England

All born Manchester.

Elizabeth and Mary A Royle's occupation both the same but difficult to decipher - Fine Piecer?

No Chris, I can't see Stone Street, either. And it was 1866 for the marriage.

Sylann, we realise it's 1861 you're looking for but posting later/earlier information helps us to get a clearer picture of who we're looking for - it's posted as much for ourbenefit as anyone else's. After all, we don't know the family as well as you do. :-)

(below looks to relate)

24 January 1849 (Tuesday) - Manchester Courier and Lancashire General Advertiser

Mr. Chapman, borough coroner, held an inquest, on Thursday, last, touching the death of Ann, daughter of Thomas Turner of 7, Berry-street, card-grinder. The deceased, who was seven years and four months old, was on Monday afternoon sitting before the fire, rocking herself in her little chair, when some hot cinders fell on her clothes, and ignited them. She ran, screaming, into the street, and was quickly followed by her mother and sister, who extinguished the flames.
Surgical aid was procured, but the child died on Wednesday. Verdict, "Accidental Death."
