Yes

But who are there descendents.

As a family we lost touch with Henrietta over 100 years ago, but Henrietta is family name.

Do you know for certain that they actually had any children? Nothing is showing up to suggest that they did.

Simon Report 26 Aug 2008 13:53

Hi Sue C

Not 100% sure, my grandmother said they did, but I have found no evidence. I thought a fresh pair of eyes or wait until 2011.

I thought some of the Morran's on GR might be related but no luck.

Ive found the English census records Thomas's family but got stuck trying to find his family in Scotland where his father was born..

Emma Report 26 Aug 2008 23:11

These are the only births I could find for a Mor(r)an with mother's maiden name of Greenwood:

Births Sep 1912 (>99%)
Moran Gertrude J Greenwood Ashton 8d 1023

Births Jun 1914 (>99%)
MORAN Eveline Greenwood Ashbourne 7b 1043

Births Jun 1923 (>99%)
Moran Leonard Greenwood Rochdale 8e 26

Registered in different places, but Ashton and Rochdale aren't an inconceivable distance from Manchester (their marriage) or Failsworth (the 1901 census). There's no guarantee there's any connection, though.

Emma

Thanks for trying so hard to find something.

No Morrans ans only two Moran's in the Manchester area and long after marriage.

Henrietta did have a nephew called Leonard Greenwood born in 1904, but why wait 19 years.

Seems unlikely more likey a son of theirs.

This may remain unanswered unless a descendent registers on GR.

Thank-you

Are you using FreeBMD for any possible births after the 1911 census

One possible in 1919 in Coventry

Simon Report 2 Sep 2012 10:18

Thanks a boy called Thomas born in 1919.

My gran never mentioned a boy.

Looks like he died before he was one. Terrible shame

Thanks for the help everyone.
