Leicestershire / Harris, Blower, Blood, Pratt, Calow, Clarke of Loughborough
« on: Sunday 12 March 06 02:01 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to find information about the Harris family of Loughborough.  Henry Harris married Elizabeth Pratt (nee Blood) in 1851 in Loughborough.  Henry was a Framework Knitter.  Henry and Elizabeth had a son, John Harris, born 27/3/1854 at Pinfold Gate, Loughborough.  John was also a Framework Knitter.  John married Sarah Blower 25/11/1872 at Emmanuel Church in Loughborough.

John & Sarah's children were Henry Harris, born 1873, Mary Elizabeth 1875, Sophia 1877, Ada 1880, John 1881, George 1884, Jane 1886 and Albert 1896.  The family were living at 26 Queen Street, Loughborough, at the time of the 1881 census.

Henry was a Tinman and Coppersmith.  He was resident at 35 Old King Street, on the 1901 census.  He married Alice Calow (also known as Annie) and they had the following children: John 1894, Edith 1896, Albert Henry 1898, Alice Mary 1900.  There may have been other children born after the date of the 1901 census.

John Harris, born 1894, married Emma Clarke on 13/2/1915.  His residence at the time of marriage was 146 King Street, Loughborough.  He died 22/1/1957.

I would like to find out as much as possible about all of these ancestors and their families.  If anyone has access to the 1841, 1851, 1861 or 1871 census I would be very grateful if you could tell me if Henry Harris and Elizabeth had any other children besides John, born 1854.  I would also like to know if I have any distant cousins who are also descended from Henry Harris and Elizabeth Pratt (nee Blood).
