Sorry I originally posted this in the wrong place.
I'm looking for: Henry Ellershaw bn about 1805 in Wray Lancs, wife Margaret b 1813 Catterton, Westmoreland (although possibly a first wife..Jane?) and children James b 1837 in Kendal and Elizabeth b 1839.
Hi I think they are more likely to be in Lancashire in 1841. In 1851 (HO107 2273 F320 p8 Borwick Lancs) their children are listed as James 16 b Kendal, Elizabeth 14 b Lancaster, Mary 7 b Preston and Joseph 5 b Lancaster. They may have nipped back to Westmorland but it seems unlikely. Have you got birth certificates for the kids? They might help. Andrea
