Of cause i could have totally the wrong family here but looks good.
It is worth checking on these two site for any you think could be yours?
http://www.burialrecords.manchester.gov.uk/
There are a fair few "Hallam's " on the tameside site too as it is only up the road from Gorton & Openshaw area, and there site is totally free too ;D

Let me know how you go on or if any of the above are correct to fitting in with your family.

This Clara Hallam was aged 74 when she was buried 31/5/1947 in the N/C section plot H355 - also note this was a grave reopening so someone else is in it.
Who?
Seems to be a fault with the burials website

Working on that you have a " Lowe " married in your family, i don't think that the Joseph you have there is the right one. I mean the one marrying in 1928 as he died in the first world war. As you will see from the army service papers i sent you it list him as dead and list all the other family members including your "Lowe" .

Just sent you his medal card and it says he died 23/06/1916
William claimed his medals and gives you another address to check out.

Hi,
I'm a direct descendent of Sarah Hallam Worsley (1785-1857) and have been researching my family tree off and on for years. She was married to John Worsley (born 12/21/1782) at Manchester Cathedral on 2/15/1803. And that's the sum of my knowledge of John Worsley. I know her parents info but have never been able to determine anything of John's roots. Anyone know anything further?

My name is Christopher hallam
My great great grandad was william Henry Hallam I've been speaking with my uncle raymond Hallam recently about our family and stumbled upon your post

I have some Hallams in my tree. Think they came from Macclesfield but ended up in Skelmersdale, Lancashire. Where they married one of my female ancestors (surname Pye) and had children born there. Attached a screenshot of my Ancestry tree.
