Ireland / John Bell b 12/25/1858
« on: Monday 21 February 11 17:16 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, I am looking for information on my Great Grandfather. He was born in Ireland (according to census) His father John was born abt 1826 in England, his mom Catherine b abt 1831 ( surname unknown) was born in Ireland as well. I have found them living in England in the census(1861, 1871, 1881) It seems I have hit a brick wall in my search, any help would be appreciated. I don't know what county he was born in.

I came across an 1861 census in Hulme, Manchester it has John b abt 1826 in Manchester, Catherine, wife b abt 1831 in Ireland. It lists a daughter Ellen b 1856 in Blackpool and 2 sons Robert ( 1858) and John (1860) but says the boys were born in Ireland.

I received John and Mary's digital record of their marriage in 1880. John Bell age 21 was a printer who lived at 22 Thompson St, I can't read the town, possibly Sheetham or Cheetham?? His dads name was John Bell who was a property owner. Of course Marys address is clear. 3 Wilson St Manchester. I did find a John Bell in the 1881 census, his occupation is an anniutant?? But it lists the address as 454 Gorton Rd Lancashire, Eng. Thank you for your help!! I appreciate it.

Yes, Prestwich, sorry. I sent away for the information in the hopes it would list his parents names.

in Lancaster, Lancashire. He was my Great Grandfather. I know he left England and immigrated to Boston, MA USA in 1890. I am searching for the name of his parents. The only name I have was on his death cert, it said his fathers name was John. In all the census it said his parents were born in England, except on his death cert it says they were born in Ireland.  Any help would be appreciated. I know he was married in 1880, I have sent for a record of that but thought I would check here. He married a Mary S Hughes in Preston.

Thank you,
Deb
