Lancashire / Margaret Ann Wilcock of Manchester
« on: Friday 05 December 08 16:43 GMT (UK)  »
Hi

Margaret Ann was born in Beswick, Manchester on 17 February 1864.  Father unnamed, Mother Mary Ann Wilcock, b 1844.
In 1871 Census Margaret is to be found with her grandparents, James & Ann Wilcock.  She is listed as their daughter, not grand-daughter.

I cannot find Margaret in 1881 Census, although her grandparents are still there.  (Family rumour has it that she travelled to Europe (Germany?) as servant to a gentleman and his two young sons.)

I know that in 1887 she married a widower, George Poole of Stoke on Trent, had 6 children and lived to age 95.

Questions-
1 Where was Margaret in 1881?
2 Whatever happened to Mary Wilcock, Margaret’s mother?
3 What happened to Margaret’s grandparents after 1881? 

Grateful for any help

Hi   Sarah was born in Smalley c 1820, gave birth to Joseph c 1835, Martha c 1841 and Charles c 1846.  Went on to marry William Braithwaite/Bruffet 1850 at St Werburgh's Derby and they had Priscilla Braithwaite 1852, Sarah died 1854.

Am keen to hear from anyone who can tell more about Wm & Sarah before 1835... and about the family after Sarah's death. Are local history & parish records the key?
