Annie 'COATES'

[sterling]

Can any one help me with tracing my Grandmothers family roots please?   She was born Annie Coates and was born or lived in Leek up to her marriage in c1901 to Mackintyre Boswell  and the they moved to Stockport (Cheshire) where they remained.

[CaroleW]

The free 1911 index shows an Annie Boswell aged 24 living in Stockport.  There is also a "Macky" Boswell aged 28 living in Stockport which I assume is her husband

Freebmd shows they married in 1904 - not 1901

Marriages December qtr 1904

The 1891 census has 2 entries - one b 1886 Leek parents Joseph & Rose and the other b 1887 Mayfield parents William & Emma

Do you have any more details re: her parents or siblings to help determine the right entry?

It's likely to be the one b Leek from what you have said above but I don't want to post details that may not be correct

Her Father was called Joseph.. that's all I know except that she was married at St Edwards Church Leek and was living at 3 Quarry Low Bank, Mill Street also in Leek around the time she Married.  Thanks again Carol

The 1881 census can be searched for free on the following link and it would appear to be a second marriage for Joseph
