Staffordshire Lookup Requests / James Bayley born circa 1792 Biddulph
« on: Monday 01 April 24 21:35 BST (UK)  »
Hello

I am not sure which board this should be on - hope this one is ok.

James Bayley is shown on the 1871 census with his family living in Macclesfield. The record estimates James' birth around 1792 in Biddulph, Staffordshire. I'm struggling to find any birth records or his parents to confirm his birth and his life pre living in Macclesfield.

Some details:
1841 Census Record - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M799-SMR
1871 Census Record - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VBX8-FQPance
Looks like James also died before 1881 as Hannah is listed as a widow and living with her son Zaccheus and daughter in law Harriett.


I would appreciate help in finding Zaccheus Bayley's father James Bayley birth records and if possible James' parents. There appears to be many James Bayleys over this period so wondering if anyone has more luck than me.

Thank you

Lancashire / Audenshaw | A.A Bailey Grocers | Bailey Family
« on: Saturday 30 March 24 02:24 GMT (UK)  »
Hello RootsChatters,

My great grandfather owned a green grocer's shop on Audenshaw Road in the early 50's called A.A Bailey. After going through some of the census records, it looks like it was located at 524 Audenshaw Road. I'm looking for any information of the area in the 40s and 50s and potentially anyone that had a connection with the family and would be happy to share any stories or memories. (long shot I know).

I have found a programme for the Little Red Riding Hood play at Red Hall Methodist Sunday School in Feb/March 1949 where my grandad Alan played the character Baron Wortwissle. I have also found a photo from the pantomime "Aladdin" the following year.

Little is known about my grandfather's / great grandfather's time in England as they moved to New Zealand in 1954 and the stories were not passed down unfortunately.

Great Grandfather - Alfred Abel Bailey born 1896 Lancashire - Married Nellie Nesbitt
Grandfather - Alan Sidney Bailey born 1932

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Samuel Abel Bailey born 1865
« on: Monday 05 February 24 07:44 GMT (UK)  »
Hello,

I'm trying to trace back my family history on the Bailey side and seem to get stuck at Samuel Abel Bailey and would appreciate any help finding Samuel's parents.

I know Samuel Abel Bailey was born in 1865 in Leek Staffordshire and married Emily Bailey (born Nixon) in Feb 1 1892 @ All Saint's Church, Leek, Staffordshire, England. He died in 1947.

A bit of background:

Samuel and Emily had a son Alfred Abel Bailey born 6 Feb 1896 in Manchester, Lancashire. Alfred married Nellie Bailey (born Nesbitt) in Dec 18 1920 @ St Aidan, Bradford, Lancashire, England.

Alfred and Nellie had a son Alan Sidney Bailey who is my grandfather and was born 1932 in England. Alan moved to New Zealand and married my grandmother Jean Molly Bailey (born McLean) who then had my father Robert Alan Bailey.

I'm trying to trace my family history back but seem to get no results once I get to Samuel Abel Bailey.
