Given that “Howley” cropped up on the baptism, you might want to look at Ann Howley (28 b Stockport) in Cowell’s Buildings, Ardwick in 1871.  She is an unmarried mother of 9yo William (middle initial looks like L, but that could be an error) and John, 20 months.

RG10/3977/166/48.

Thanks so much for your help avm228. This could well be the mother. So kind of you to look into this for me.

As you suggested earlier, I will order the birth certificate and hopefully confirm.

Thanks all!

You’re welcome.  As you probably know, the cheapest way to get the certificate information is to order a PDF for £6 through the current GRO Online pilot service:

Do update the thread when it arrives - it’s always nice to know how things turn out :)

Have you found his baptism record?

One of mine was illegitimate but his baptism record names his father

Thanks, I just ordered now so I will be back once I have the certificate.  :) I didn't know that PDF options were available, in the past I've just ordered a paper copy so thank you for letting me know!

Baptism details are transcribed upthread at reply #6 - not the same thing as the birth certificate which you’ve now ordered.

Hi all,

Just an update.

The certificate did not mention a Father at all.

His mother's name is Ann Earley.
