You are right Rootgatherer - Salford IS near Manchester and that is probably the correct Winifred but something doesn't 'sit quite right' for me with that one.

Catherine - about your soldier Frank Conway born c 1863.

According to his army records his father was John, mother - Winifred.
He had siblings Peter, John E?, Katherine, Winfred, Mary + Margaret.

I can't see him on 1871 with his family.

He was still alive and single up until at least 1893.
