Title: Burns family Manchester
Post by: james2006 on Tuesday 01 September 20 22:49 BST (UK)
Sarah Jane Brierley married William Burns in 1915 Manchester. They had a son William P Burns , daughter Jessie Burns, Son Harry Burns, son Robert Burns, all born Manchester. I've found records for William P Burns, but cannot find the other children

William Percy Burns b 1915 died Manchester 1980

Have you investigated the 1940 marriage of Jessie Burns to John E Chadwick?  Although her birth was registered March qtr - she could have been born late 1920

Jessie Chadwick b 15.11.1920 died 1971 Manchester

Mistranscribed on the 1939 register as Barns

The 1939 entry gives the full birthdates for Harry & James

Wrong Harry Burns - reply removed to avoid confusion

He is not the Harry Burns who died 2014 Oldham - that Harry was b 1926 Oldham

Found them registered as barns. I think Jessie did marry John Chadwick, as her name is Chadwick in 1939 register

Have you checked to see if either Harry or James died in WW2?

Have you got the birth certificates for the exact dates of birth of any children that you have not found in 1939?

This will help with identification of them because, as you say, there are many Burns.
