Cheshire Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Birth & Death Look-Up - Peter CLARE (b. c1811)
« on: Monday 16 September 13 22:34 BST (UK) »
Not sure if this is still active but.......
Peter Clare and Rachel Wood are my 4 x G Great Grandparents.
They had (at least) 9 children (Joseph, Elizabeth, William, Mary, John, Ellen, Thomas, James and Edward). James' middle names were Slingsby Duncombe - anybody any idea why?
Peter appears in the 1841 Census as Shoe Maker (Shoe M - although some transcripts show this as Char Man!).
He married Rachel Wood in 1829 in Grappenhall.
Peter was born on 18/02/1809 and Christened on 18/06/1809. Father was also Peter Clare (Blacksmith). Mother was Sarah Ward. Peter + Sarah married in 1799, Warrington and a witness was Thomas Clare (not sure if a brother or other relative). Peter Clare (Senior) was born in Warrington 1776 and his parents were Sarah Lawton and Isaac Clare.
Rachel Wood is in the 1841, 51 + 61 Censuses, with her birth place recorded as Cheshire, Lymm Cheshire, Latchford Cheshire respectively. Her DOB is most likely 1808 but IO can find no other records for her. Has any one else manged to find out more about Rachel (or Peter).
Happy Hunting!
