Wright & Taylor, Salford, Lancs

From www.historicaldirectories.org

Slater's 1911 Directory of Manchester & Salford has Cyrus Joseph WRIGHT, Glass & China Dealer, at 78 Lower Broughton Rd.

[Mr. MIGKY]

Cyrus must have died by 1929 and his son-in-law must have taken over the business

Thank you all so much for your responses.  Sorry that I haven't been back....busy with visitors.

You have given me a lot more info for my notes & to ponder on.

However, I was hoping that this post might put me in contact with some descendants of this couple, as of a large number of possibles to fit in my son's tree, these seem the most likely, and I was hoping to save myself a fortune in certs, by making contact with someone who can confirm or discard my research.

Looks like I will need to spend up and hope.

Thanks again.

Blessings

Hi Lyn
Might just be worth a post on here

http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/community/in_touch/

the paper has a wide circulation throughout Greater Manchester and the website is well visited.

Best wishes

Thanks Tony.  I will try that.

The problem is that I know that much of the census records for Lancs are missing/damaged and with the little info I have, this family is the only one that I can find that fits.  But some doesn't seem to. And there are so many Wrights In Lancs that I am unsure if I am on the right track.  And it is not made any easier by researching from downunder and having very little geographical knowledge of England.

Thanks heaps for your help.

Blessings

Hi Lyn,
worth a post to that site, nothing ventured, nothing gained Also your lack of geographical knowledge is more than compensated for by some of the 'illustrious' names who have posted replies. The fonts of wisdom of all things Salford, Manchester, Salford and Lancashire are obviously there for you

Cheers

Thanks Tony.....just working on the wording for the post....don't want it to be as ambiguous as my post here!!   

The expertise and friendliness of the peeps here is what brought me back to post on Roots Chat.

Hi Cyrus must have retired or died before 1927 As his son-in-law in charge of the shop then? Here  he is plus a list of other Godbert's from 1927.
