BOWYER, GORE, COOMBES (Barnton)
« on: Thursday 15 January 09 18:16 UTC (UK) »
I'm trying to find out more about my great grandfather's sister, Catherine Bowyer nee Gore, who settled with her husband Joseph in Barnton after their marriage in Wigan in 1887. Catherine worked with her husband (who also worked as a chemical labourer and stationery engine driver) in a pub/beersellers on Runcorn Road. Other homes were in Weaver View and Nursery Road. Catherine & Joseph had five children of whom only two survived infancy. These were James, b 1890, and Teresa, b 1895.  The latter married William Coombes (b Barnton 1890; living Oakwood Lane, Barnton, in 1911) in 1922 and died in the Crewe area in 1973. James was still living in 1911 and at home with his parents and sister; he may have married  Katie Gerrard or Maud Robinson. I think Catherine may have died in 1926 in the Banrton area; I don't know where she is buried (likewise her other family members). Are there any descendants of this family who would be interested in links with the family elsewhere? I have a lot of information on branches in Lancashire, Berkshire and elsewhere, and would love to know what happened to Catherine & Joseph's family after 1911. Please contact me if you have information or would like to know more.

Hello Marymar and welcome to Rootschat!

The easiest way to make surname connections with other members is to enter your surname interests in the Surname Interests Table (SIT). 
This can be found at http://surname.rootschat.com/ , there is a link to it at the bottom of each Rootschat page.

                       ............. [Your Surname Interests] ........................

The more people who enter their surnames, the more chance there will be of making a connection!
