Owen Chester Holliday
« on: Monday 29 November 04 19:57 GMT (UK) »
Born out-of-wedlock in Northamptonshire in 1855, Owen Chester Holliday was apparently left with his grandparents when his mother and her eventual husband, and the children from this marriage, emigrated to New Zealand in about 1870.
Owen married Mary Ann Wheeler in 1876 in Culworth, Northants, and they had two children: William (1878) and James (1880), both born in Leicestershire. None of them, however,  appear in the 1901 census. Might they have also emigrated to New Zealand, or perhaps Australia, but at a later date. To pursue this further would welcome help and guidance.

Greeting's....R.H.H.........

There this will give you a start.........

   Source:   FHL Film 1341810     PRO Ref RG11    Piece 3389    Folio 105    Page 29

Owen HOLIDAY   M   26    M   Culworth, Northampton, England
   Rel:   Head
   Occ:   Engine Cleaner
Mary A. HOLIDAY   M   26    F   Appelnorth, Northampton, England

Can confirm they were not in Leicestershire 1891.

So it looks like you need to post your query in the Derbyshire Section on this site.

Good Luck ......
