Hi Jacqueline
What do you make of this on the census that was found...
Daughter 63 is really 13...
Ralph is nephew....
This is why I'm confused to who Ralphs parents are...

The simple answer is to get a copy of Ralph's marriage cert, as advised previously - on both of your threads, I believe

As he didn't marry in a Cof E church, the info is NOT on LancsOPC site

Someone on here posted a birth with MMN HOLDEN - get a copy

Nephew is son of a sibling, so one of Ralph's parents is a sibling of Ralph

You aren't going to get a definite answer without spending some money

Where is Ralph (1844) in 1861 and 1871?

Lesley

Lesley Report 11 May 2015 10:27

1861 he is with Ralph 1806 and nancy in Rochdale.. but birth is 1846 for Ralph 1844.

In 1871 he is with Nancy and Jane (cousin) with her family (Forth) Ralphs d.o.b is 1846 on this also

Are you going to get any certs?

If you want facts, you must get his marriage cert, at least

Ignore slight variations in ages on censuses...........for one thing, they weren't taken on the same date every time

Lesley

Lesley Report 11 May 2015 13:06

Yes will definitely get the ones I need.

Thanks for the info on the ages, it did knock my confidence a little and thought I must be doing something wrong. Makes a lot more sense now.

Thanks for all your help
Lesley
