Oh dear, what have I started. FARNWORTH is within the metropolitan borough of Bolton.

Sorry about that. I meant Farnworth. And sorry for the confusion. I know now that they all moved away from Farnworth - got my research in a bit of a mess. I do notice that there are still some GOODWINs in Farnworth today, but I guess GOODWIN is quite a common surname in Lancashire. Thanks again.

Lancashire / GOODWIN of Farnsworth
« on: Sunday 13 November 11 18:50 GMT (UK) »
I am researching GOODWIN in Farnsworth, particularly details of John Wilfred, born Farnworth 1882 but possibly killed in WWI, Henry Cuthbert, born Farnworth 1883, and George, born Farnworth 1887. All are children of James GOODWIN and Elizabeth MILLS. James was a grocer with the co-op and the family moved around a lot. There were other children born to them but not in Farnsworth.
Did Henry and/or George remain in Farnsworth, marry and have families there?
Thank you.

Thank you all for your interest and replies. I must admit I don't think it is my man. The information I have is from the birth certificate for his son Frederick James on 11 January 1851, registered by the mother in Hemingford Grey, Hunts, on 30 January 1851. Certificate clearly states "Private in 1st Batal. of Grenadier Guards". His wife, Ann, is staying with her son at her parents house at the time of the 1851 census.

Thank you Pam. Was not expecting one so young (or from Ireland!). His wife is 33 years old and has a 3 month old son.

Would it be possible to get a look-up please for James GOODWIN in the 1851 census? He was a Private in the 1st Battalion Grenadier Guards. I am particularly interested in his place of birth.
Thank you and regards
Ron Goodwin, Chorley.

Hello Ladyhawk. Thank you. I presume that is the 1861 census, but I'm afraid I do not have access to that either.
