1881 census Brightside Bierlow William lowe (law) 34 lincoln Carter Martha E lowe 28 sheffield alice r lowe 9 sheffield john t lowe 7 sheffield lavinia lowe 5 sheffield charles wm lowe 1 sheffield john g boulton 34 chesterfield

Jess, I think I might need new glasses! Usually taking them off does the trick, but this is a tricky one! The bride's father, John Boulton - his occupation looks a bit like 'Auctioneer' but some of the letters don't quite fit! I will have to keep looking back at it to see if I can get it eventually! It does look as if it starts with a W and ends with 'nner', with four or five letters in between. Um, and the witnesses' names - the first one looks like John Kirk. The second one looks like Peter Horton, but there is something before what I think is the first letter of it, which could be an initial or possibly '&', but I can't remember ever seeing an '&' before a witness's name on a marriage cert before. Anyway, I'm not certain it says Peter, either! Hope somebody else does better than me!! Kate.

maureen that is them it has to be arghhhhhhhhh lol am so pleased kate thanks for trying reg has hit the nail on the head by saying the occupation is wire drawer which is what his son john g was in 1881 regards jess

Oh, it's so obvious now you say that! I did think it might be wire something, just couldn't make a proper phrase out of it! Kate.

1861 guess what the occupation of John is - wire drawer I do hope its the right family Still not found Martha in 1871 Good luck Maureen

kate my first glance at it made me think it said window lol but looking at it now it deffo says wire drawer...i should have guessed straight away with john jnr being one lol

You are going to think I am mad with this suggestion but I keep going back to this family in 1871 although the image does not look like Law Name: Curelia Cose - image I think is Amelia Age: 1 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1870 Relation: Daughter Father's name: William Mother's name: Martha Gender: Female Where born: Sheffield Civil Parish: Ecclesall Bierlow Ecclesiastical parish: Broomhall County/Island: Yorkshire Country: England Registration district: Ecclesall Bierlow Sub-registration district: Ecclesall Bierlow ED, institution, or vessel: 18 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 95 Household Members: Name Age Curelia Cose 1 Martha Cose 22 William Cose 24 Source Citation: Class: RG10; Piece: 4670; Folio: 90; Page: 18; GSU roll: 847225 There is this birth Name: Amelia Law Year of Registration: 1870 Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec District: Ecclesall Bierlow County: Derbyshire, Yorkshire - West Riding Volume: 9c Page: 284 Might be worth a second look if only to rule it out Maureen

whats the street name?

Jess, Think I will have to rule it out as there is a death in 1870 that could match the birth details posted. Back to the drawing board. Off to take the dogs out as the sun has finally come out Good luck Maureen
