Hi Hallmark
Thanks for your reply

Not sure if this link will work but it’s the 1911 census of John Cross in Seaforth Lancashire 😊

Ahhh... not Ireland
-
Sorry , he moved to Lancashire around 1865-1866 as their first child was born in Lancashire in 1866 and I believe they were married in Isle of Man in 1865. The first census I can find them on in Lancashire is 1871 , but I can't find any other previous info from him or my gt gt grandmother being in Ireland

Religion?

I would take a guess on C of E , only as most of my family are

Hallmark, thank you so much for your help, it is very much appreciated x

I also found out today there is an Alexander Cross buried with him in Lancashire, possibly his brother he died 1887 aged 42 , so I'm guessing he would of been born in drumrain too x

Also thank you to dathai for marriage cert . Very much appreciated x
