Hi there, yes I have the census. Where he appears with his brother John, confirmed for me that I had the correct parents for him, William and Ann. I don't have specific documentation that says his parents names but I have a year of birth, that he was born in MANCHESTER and that he worked as a glass maker there. Yes he married Mary Anne Carter, however I don't think the other trees have gotten much further than I have. Yes, he is connected to the previous thread, but I've found more information on him since then that has helped me fill in the gaps. He immigrated in 1852 aboard the Nepaul, which I got from his political record.
Okay I think I've answered everything. Anymore questions let me know. I think I may have found a connection between him and the NIXONS from LEICESTER. His brother John NIXON b 1827 is staying with his aunt in 1861, Harriett BERRY. Harriett was born LEICESTERSHIRE and it seems she has a brother William, so I think I may have cracked it.
