Cumberland / WILKINSON/BISHOP
« on: Saturday 25 January 20 11:24 GMT (UK)  »
I'm fairly sure on this but other eyes..

I know that:
GRO Births:
WILKINSON, BARBARA  JANE    -   
 1878  J Quarter in WHITEHAVEN  Volume 10B  Page 612 
Mother is  Harriet WILKINSON . Both born Harrington

 1881
They are in "W Derby Union Workhouse For Sick Poor" Mill Rd

1891
As WILKINSON...Glanford Brigg
 2628; Folio: 19; Page: 31
Barbra J WILKINSON with parents William and Harriet.

1901
WILKINSON   Glanford Brigg
3102; Folio: 13; Page: 17
Betsy J WILKINSON

........................

I've purchased most of the birth certs for the rest of the  family and mother is always Harriet BISHOP/father William WILKINSON occ:tailor

SO...figuring that they  (William and Harriet) had just switched surnames...I keep coming up with
William BISHOP occ: tailor b 1849 Middlesex..married to Elizabeth Mary McGrath 8 Jul 1872 Liverpool, St Nicholas, Lancashire:

1881
William BISHOP
119 Rishton St /Everton
Occ: Journeyman Tailor
3670 /132/42

.....
My question is-do you think I've got the correct William?

Maureen

P.S.
Hadn't realized how difficult it is to post anything coherent. Well done to those that do!

AND-I forgot to say Please and Thank You. ::)

 I have no idea when or where this was taken.
  (Ontario  or Manitoba Canada ).

They  (Samuel SMITH and Nancy CAMERON) were born 1820-ish. in Canada.

 I' think :-\ this was taken in Canada (or North Dakota USA) in the mid-1880's.
 Would someone be able to enlighten me as to the short coif on my Gran?

 Sorry-my first time doing this and I know I'm going to muck it up. :-[
