Altrincham Directory (Worrall's) c.1871/1872
HOOD Mr. George, Peel Crescent, off Ashley Road, Hale. Also at this address ...
ORMSHAW Mrs. Mary, Peel Cescent, off Ashley Road, Hale.
The reason for my question is, the two same characters appeared to live next door to each other at Peel Causeway, Hale, in the 1871 Census and shortly after seem to have both moved to Peel Crescent and I have been stuck with my Hood of Selby (2 generations back from the above George Hood) lineage, for about 20 years.
1871 Census, Peel Causeway, Hale (Microfim copy in Cheshire Archives).
George HOOD, Head, Marr, 24 [born 1847], Commercial Traveller in the Leather Trade, born Selby, Yorkshire.
Charlotte HOOD, Wife, 23, Marr, born Manchester [nee Middleton, I have her 1871 Death Certificate]
Emma BOARDMAN, Serv. Unm, 21, General Serv. (Domestic), born Salford, Lancashire.
Mary ORMESHER, Head, W, 57 yrs, Annuitant, born Bowdon, Cheshire.
Sarah A. ORMESHER, Daur, Unm, 28 yrs, Annuitant, born -ditto- [can't get this *birthplace to tally on GRO *]
Charles WALKER, Grandson, 5, Blackley, Lancs.
John S. MARRIOT, Lodger.
Can't find ORMESHERs in earlier Census on Family Search, despite having Mother & Daughter.
Various, researched
Mary ORMESHER appears to be buried Bowdon 1887 aged 73 yrs, Registered Altrincham (GRO Index), which fits with an estimated Birth of about 1814 at Bowdon, Cheshire and a ...
Marriage Mary HALL to Henry ORMESHER 12th November 1835, Bowdon, Cheshire (not seen).
*Sarah Ann ORMESHER Birth 1842 District Manchester, nee HALL (GRO Index)
This seems to fit with ...
Sarah Ann ORMERSHER baptised 7 June 1842, Manchester, Lancashire, Parents Henry & Mary ORMERSHER (Birth 15 May 1842, St. John, Deansgate, Manchester, Lancs).
*Incidentally, there is a second listing for a Sarah Ann ORMESHER in 1838 District Chorlton, on GRO Index, again with nee HALL.
Possibly Sarah Ann ORMESHER, baptism 10 June 1838, Heaton Norris, Lancashire, Parents Henry and Mary ORMESHER.
Questions
1) Any ORMSHAW / ORMESHER / ORMERSHER / HALL etc., relationship / Marriage to HOOD?
2) Any HOOD witnesses on any documents please?
Other surnames of interest from a known HOOD ancestor childrens middle names (all surnames) are COOK; PEARSON; ELLEN and ALFRED. Also COOKIN (COCKIN and aliases).
Thanks Mark
