Hi
What about a Gatherer ~ A glassworker who inserted the blow iron into the molten glass ready for the glass blower.

Glass Cutter or Glass Polisher?
Which town did he live in? That often provides a clue.
Was it St Helens? Where glass was manufactured.
I remember hearing that Michael Parkinson was a bit annoyed that his family weren't chosen for a programme. They did the research but there was no 'angle' to it. They were all Barnsley miners, considered by the producers to be too boring for tv.
Here's the other Sarah Ann we had earlier.
1876 marriage James Ingram and Sarah Ann Holt.
1881 the Ingrams are living in Pearson Street with children and mother in law Sarah Rathbone.
So that accounts for the Holts.
It also does show that people can remarry within a short time of first marriage.
Samuel Joseph Rathbone baptised 6th February 1859 at St Jude, Ancoats
Mother Ann
Canning Street
There may be more Sarah Anns though. We are crossing them off the list though
Bev,
It would be worth checking other children's birth certificates. As you point out Sarah Ann may have been illiterate but if the certificate you have is a typed copy, then there could be errors in the transcription.

yes, we are crossing them off - Thank you all for your help and input, I've had a busy family weekend, but head is back into searching mode and I'm going through all the info you have found for me - sieving it through to find her
1851This seems to be before William was born, but he would probably have followed his father in trade
