Jess - I was pointing out the possible error Terry may be about to make. Nancy was born 1821 or 1830 depending on which census we've looked at. the jonathan I found on the 1861 was born 1832. Therefore brother & sister NOT father and daughter. Variations - errrrrr - Preston, Heliwell, Chorley (& probably more to come) QUESTION JESS - where've you managed to get Manchester from - I've blinked & missed that one lol

Terry - that 1832 born Jonathan is more likely to be a brother to Nancy rather than father though

Jools

Jools Report 30 Mar 2006 22:15

Terry - do you actually possess Nancy's MC or are you taking the details from the IGI?

Terence

Terence Report 30 Mar 2006 22:08

Jools thats a good lead you gave me .Jonothan marle living in Bolton in 1832.bolton being very close to Halliwell nr manchester where Nancy was born. thanks terry

Jools

Jools Report 30 Mar 2006 22:07

Afraid to say I think dead is a distinct possibility for Jonathan.

Jess Bow Bag

Jess Bow Bag Report 30 Mar 2006 22:07

probably a good idea to request a 1841 census for nancy marle

Terence

Terence Report 30 Mar 2006 21:54

because his daughter was 21 in1849 so he must have been around 20 when she was born.It was just a hunch.

Jools

Jools Report 30 Mar 2006 21:53

Who did Nancy marry - George Gent?

Jools

Jools Report 30 Mar 2006 21:50

So how on earth have you managed to get that he was age about 43 in 1851?
