I'm trying to find any details about the Foster/Forster family who lived in staffordshire in the 1860s. John, a coal miner,was the dad and his daughter Harriet was b.1865ish. They moved to Wigan and Harriet married James Bradshaw in 1887 in Ince. On the 1901 and 1891 census, Harriet is just down as being born in Staffs, and I can't pin them down in the 1881 one. I nned to know where in Staffs to be able to go further,Staffs covered a big area in those days. Any help appreciated
