Hi,
I have got in a bit of a muddle with my Culshaws. So many cousins with the same name born around the same time. I hope you can help.
Henry Culshaw born 1821 Rufford
Henry Culshaw born 1826 Rufford/Burscough
In 1881 they are neighbours in Martin Mere and in 1901 Henry the younger is living next door to Henry the elder's son.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thank you
Best regards

Hi Sandra,
Thank you for the reply.
I am following the line of James Culshaw born 1802 Rufford. I am trying desperately to link all the other Culshaws of Bolton/Rufford/Burscough. No easy task. I do have the Henrys and Thurston on my tree although I feel their links maybe a little suspect. If you have any information I would be very pleased to receive it and it may just confirm some of my connections.
If I am on the right lines I am hoping you have Henry born c 1761 and Jane Hosker (the origins of the name Thurston from her father.) Do you have Henry's father, please? Hopefully then I can make a definate connection.
Best regards

Hi Amanda
Thomas Culshaw, husbandman, of Holmeswood. Wife is Ann ?
This from Rufford Parish Registers for baptism of Henry Culshaw 1757 [6 Mar].
Ann Culshaw [wife of Thomas] died 1779 & was buried 20 March 1779 at Rufford - Burial Register of St Mary's, Rufford.
I seem to think that when I tried to get the marriage of Thomas & Ann there were some bits of the Register missing, so I have not sorted this out yet. Also still looking for the death of Thomas.
It all gets quite complicated bieng such a small geographical area & the same names keep coming up Culshaw, Ascroft, Caunce, Jackson, Lea, Almond, Dawson etc
Let me know if you need anything else

Hi Sandra,
Thank you for the info. Do you have any other children for Henry and Ann? I have John, James, and Thomas and I am hoping they are brothers to Henry. Unfortunately, I have not evidence. I have just guessed by their estimated ages and places of birth and marriage.
If I can't make a connection it isn't a problem.
Best regards
Amanda

Hi Amanda
Will send you PM with further info from Baptism Registers.

Hi, I have a tree of Hoskers going back to the 1600s. There is a Thurstan Hosker married to Alice Glover who had several children including Jane b.1760 and Thurston b.1766. A lot of my Hoskers are from the Croston and Rufford area

Hi
We probably should compare trees then - I think the Jane & Thurston I have been following were the children of Thurston Hosker & Margaret Cookson, but it is difficult to tell.
This duplication of names of cousins in the same area is where we came in with the Henry Culshaws ;D
