Hi,
Do you know when John S Boswell or his wife Elizabeth died and where?
Just thinking that there will be an obituary for them which is likely to help with your search.

The marriage of Thomas Renshaw and Susanna Boswell was 24 Dec 1927 Christ Church.
Thomas was 22, a bachelor, not sure about his occupation it was hard to read, think it was Slater.
He lived at 79 Bridgefield Street his father was Charles Renshaw a Grave Digger.
Susanna Boswell was 18 and a spinster. She lived at 83 Bridgefield Street.
Her father was John Boswell a Hawker.
William Taylor and Nicola Beeley were the witnesses.

It's possible that Susannah Boswell and Thomas Renshaw are the parents of your John Renshaw.
Susannah and Thomas married 1927 Dec qtr. at Heaton Norris Christ Church.
There are a couple of birth records on Cheshirebmd for Renshaw with mother's name Boswell.
I won't print them as there is just a chance they may still be living.

There is a marriage for a John Boswell 21,to Elizabeth Davenport 22, 29 Nov 1909 at Heaton Norris Christ Church. It doesn't mention his middle name but he was a hawker, father's name George also a hawker and witnesses were Samson Boswell and I think the other one is Leminder Boswell.
John and Elizabeth had a daughter Susannah born 1910/11.
I was going to say that the 1911 census would make it a bit clearer but I'm not sure that it does and I could be completely wrong. There seems to be two records, one for John Boswell and another for John S Boswell which is confusing me because I think they could be the same person. ::)

Thomas 1839 and David 1843 will be on the GRO index and show the mother's maiden name.

I've just had a quick look and there is a birth reg for a David Davies born June Qtr 1843 in Nantwich
Mother's name Jinks.
There is also a Thomas reg Sept qtr 1839 with same mother's maiden name of Jinks

Hi Alan,
You say that your Thomas was a labourer but the baptisms of........
John 27 March 1817, Amy 14 Nov 1824, Henry 8 Sept 1832 and William 28 Dec 1834
All show father Thomas to be a shoemaker.
Mary 4 March 1827 her father is Thomas a labourer.
Other than Mary 1827 I haven't yet found anymore children with father Thomas a labourer. ???
