 I am not sure when this family arrived in England. I have them on the 1881 but am looking for more clues.   They may have been living at 10 Medlock st. Deansgate, Manchester. They were there in 1874 and 1881.
 
I am looking for Annie Maria Boyle, age about 7 or 8 years old, born Ireland. Her father: John Boyle (he died 1874 in England), her mother: Mary Boyle, both born 1833/34 in Ireland.

Annie told her children of a frightening voyage during a stormy crossing from Ireland, so likely she did come as a child.

On the 1881 census there are other people living with them:

Thomas Boyle, Lodger un. b about 1862, Hog salesman b Ireland( no relation, as Annie Maria married him)

His father, also a Thomas Boyle, was at the wedding, seemingly living elsewhere( I wonder why Thomas Jr did  not live with his father? )

James Boyle, lodger, married b about 1809 Cattle salesman b Ireland ( where is his wife? Is he John's father? or perhaps grandfather of Thomas Jr.)

and another Lodger: Robert Knox, m 37 railway carter b Ireland.

Thankyou.

I have  this old  London newspaper called 'The Sun.'  Printed at 112 The Strand. This issue was published Friday Oct 7th 1814. There are a few BMDs which I can list if that is ok.

 Although I have had this paper for years I have not really looked at it till recently( it was out of sight, out of mind,stored  in a box with a few old ' Times'  papers.)

 How fascinating these old papers are. The little fragile thin newspaper is two sheets folded,  ie. 4 pages,  and it cost  sixpence halfpenny!! I wonder what that would be equivalent to nowadays! It was obviously not for 'the great unwashed!' 
I started reading about the stamp tax  which elevated the price of newspapers out of the reach of most working people, so the they  would not become inflamed with subversive ideas. like, I suppose, toppling the Monarchy etc .

 There are some interesting little pieces in this paper, including a letter of endorsement for medicine "Leakes Patent Pills" from some poor gent suffering from 'Hues Venerea.' I looked it up it is Syphilis. He has had great relief. Maybe it had mercury in it?  He says he has had it since 1790.  He says he is much improved and now he is 'fat and jolly".    He is probably fictional but his name is given as Alex Murker of  Swann's Close, High Street, Edinburgh. he has witmesses to his cure: John Thompson 3, New Poultry market. Edin. and John McIntosh of Old Assembly Close, Edin.
Then, main seller,  Thomas Taylor, member Royal College of Surgeons, number 9 New Bridge Steet London (his residence)  also follows a list of other sellers of the medicine in England ,Scotland and Ireland, and more 'puffery.

Looking for a Mary Brindley or Mary BOND on 1871 census for Kensington. age about  40 yrs.
 
Mary Brindley  may have married a George Bond,  Dec 1866.

She is a bit of a puzzle.
If this is 'my' Mary Brindley, on the 1861 census,  she was living with the Duffin family at 3 Henry Place, Hammersmith, (St Pauls) as a boarder, age 30  single,  no occupation listed, born at sea.

On the 1851 census, 14 ( or 4) Windsor Terrace, Hammersmith,  there was a Mary Brindley age 19  Bonnet maker, listed as a 'daughter' of John and Martha Brindley, but 'married'. so more likely to be a 'daughter- in -law.'

There was a John Brindley Junior also living therealso married so perhaps Mary and John jr were husband and wife.  Mary ' born in Kings county  Ireland'
 Not likely John and Martha  Brindley ever went to Ireland.

John and Martha Brindley both died before 1861,  John Jr may have died in 1859, not yet verified) so Mary could have been a boarder with the Duffins. Yet she said she was 'single' and not 'widowed' on the 1861?

If Mary married George Bond and is on the 1871 census she would be  about 40yrs of age. her birthpace may be 'Ireland' or 'born at sea'.

Thank you

I hope this is  fun and is helpful to everyone. I was particularly delighted to be able to look at the Times Digital Archive. This is only available  for one week so tell your friends and look up your relatives :-))
