Many thanks to everyone who has replied - you have given me several lines of research which might help me to solve the puzzle.  Very kind of you all to take so much trouble.

Cheshire / Henry Peake/Louisa Sadler
« on: Friday 22 November 19 08:57 GMT (UK)  »
Married in 1890 after having at least five children of which my grandmother was the youngest. They had described themselves as man and wife in censuses, children's birth certificates etc up to that time. Henry was born at Davenport, Cheshire but moved to Derby as a young man - Louisa was born in Quarndon, Derby. I am wondering whether either was already married which prevented their marriage previously. Does anyone have any information about either of them please?

Cheshire / Re: Garden Street, Macclesfield

Thank you very much indeed - that's wonderful.  My great grandparents (Henry and Louisa Peake) were both living there when they married at the Register Office in 1890. Before that they had six children, of which my Gran, born in 1887 was the youngest. In each census up to then they described themselves as man and wife. So it's an intriguing family mystery that I am trying to solve. Thank you once again for your help. Godfrey Eland.

Cheshire / Garden Street, Macclesfield
« on: Tuesday 19 November 19 15:27 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to find the inhabitants of no 71 Garden Street, Macclesfield in the 1891 census.  I have found nos 1-55 Garden Street in the parish of Hurdsfield but the remaining numbers do not appear there and I am wondering if that part of Garden Street lay in a different parish. (Google Street View shows that no 71 still exists).  Can anyone help me please?

Staffordshire / Whitehouse/Taylor Rocester

Does anyone have any information about the family calling itself Whitehouse and/or Taylor in Rocester at various points during the nineteenth century please?  I am intrigued as to why they would switch their name backwards and forwards in various census, births, deaths etc.  They are ancestors of my wife.   ???
