Alice was born c1810 and Jane was born c1806 in Lancashire. Jane is the mother of Richard Rushton Broadley born c1827. Other than that I have no furthur details. I would dearly like to find some more information about them.
Thanks in advance.

Yes they are sisters Flick

Flick

Flick Report 7 Apr 2010 21:54

As you say you know nothing about them other than Jane's illegitimate son, I'm curious to know how you are certain they are sisters?

Are they together in a census?

You haven't even given birthplace info, although I asked in an earlier posting

Gail

Gail Report 8 Apr 2010 09:52

I am sorry if I have misled anyone by the information that I have given.
I am led to believe that Alice and Jane are sisters but have not confirmed this.
I have information regarding Jane's son Richard born Clayton lee moors and who he married - Mary Jane Stephenson (supposed to related to Rocket family).

You didn't mislead anyone - I was just clarifying the info

Have you found Richard on 1841 census?

Gail

Gail Report 8 Apr 2010 11:43

Hi Flick,
The 1861 family that you posted is my Broadley family on some census they are down as Bradley.
I do not have the early census records of them.
