All my Harrops are from Mottram-in-Longdendale (not far from charlesworth) the earliest I've got is James b 1722 - I will fill in more when I've got time - this is just to include the Mottram Harrops (a lot of them were Hatters)

Hi Sue

Yes Reddish is in Stockport. I'd be very interested if you come across any connections to my Martha Harrop who married Richard Chatburn/Chadburn  or her father Robert Harrop - as I'm having trouble unravelling it all at the moment

I THINK Martha's parents were

Martha Dodge married Robert Harrop 26/Nov/1774 at Stockport

Martha Harrop then married Richard Chatburn weaver 25/October/1801 to at Stockport by licence

They then possibly had daughter Hannah who married Samuel Collier
(No birth for her yet but I have this marriage possibility)


Samuel Collier to Hannah Dodge Jadburn at St Mary Cheadle dated 9/May/1835.

Seen in 1841 Census HO107/113/10
Stockport, Cheshire
Hempshaw Lane
George Chadburn  b1826   CLOGGER'S APPRENTICE
Harriot Chadburn  b1821   COTTON FRAME TENTER   
Martha Chadburn b 1781    
Richard Chadburn b 1766    COTTON WEAVER
Samuel Chadburn b 1811    COTTON CARDER
Samuel Collier    b1816 CLOGGER
Hannah Collier b 1816    COTTON CARDER?        
Helen Collier     b 1836 (Ellen?)          
Robert Collier    b1840         
Samuel Collier    b1838     

It all seems to link up but I don't have a birth for Hannah Dodge Chatburn so can't put it all together just yet.

Milly :)
