Thanks Peter,

Still no sign of a Martha Stretch daughter though?  I suppose she could very well be in service by 1851 hence why she would not be on the census.

The only curious thing about the 1851 family is that my Joseph Samuel Stretch's first born Grandson was called DENNIS; like the one in the 1851.

So, Im still looking for confirmation about a Martha Stretch being the daughter of Joseph & Ziporah.

Where is Cuddington?  anywhere near Grappenhall, Appleton?

Thanks again for your help Peter.

OKAY - STAND BY - A REVELATION ON THE STRETCH FRONT.

Martha Stretch bap. 18 Nov. 1832 Whitegate - parents Joseph & Zipporah.

A connection, at last!

That was some brick wall!

Anyone with any info on Joseph & Zipporah Stretch - Cuddington

AM also a Stretch in Cheshire - I descend from a Richard Stretch in Frodsham ~ 1550 through Josiah Stretch of Daresbury (1682-1759) and Thomas Stretch of Aston (1785-1865). I have a fairly full tree and lots of Parish Registers.
Would like ot get in touch with any fellow Stretchs in the area.
Please make contact.

Just a quick note from a Stretch ex-pat now half a world away from his home county of Cheshire.  Just joined but active elsewhere. 
My research is mostly online because I'm so far away, but I still have too much to assimilate and too little time to do it ...


As well as my own, Cheshire surnames I'm looking at include Anderson, Bennett/Bennet, Brammell, Dodd, Fowles, Wainwright in the east... Nantwich, Over to Northwich and on to Macclesfield, Whaley Bridge/Manchester etc. 
Most other names on the other trunk of the tree are in Liverpool, Yorks, Lincs, Norfolk, etc.
