Thomas Brett age 50 born 1851 coal mine hewer

John Brett age 23 born 1878 coal mine hewer
William Brett age 20 born 1881 coal mine hewer

Thomas Brett age 16 born 1885 mine horse driver
James A Brett age 13 born 1888 waggoner at the mine

Hi Judy,

The most likely birth I see for James A is:

James Albert Brett
Sep 1887 Salford 8d 21

Have you looked up William in 1911 yet? Is he the one in Salford district with a wife Elizabeth? If so, how long does it say they've been married?

My guess would be this marriage:
Mar 1904 Salford 8d 44 (marriage at Salford St Augustine according to Lancashire BMD)

William Brett to Elizabeth Machin

Just a guess though - you'd need the cert to ascertain he's the same person

Hi

William Brett that I am looking for was a coal miner hewer and married an Ethel Beddowes (not sure if this is her maiden name) they had a son James in 1915 in wrexham.

I was told that the family may have originated from Lancs thats why I was interested in the Thomas Brett family of 1901 census.

Have born cert for James Brett born 1915 with mother as Ethel Beddowes,

Had tried http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,410413.msg2805506.html#msg2805506
 But was now looking at William Brett born 1881 clutching at straws, just back from national archives at Kew no record of marriage of William Brett to Ethel Beddowes around 1913-1915
