Hi Arranroots
Thanks for your replies ,
As far as I have found out Prestwich records prior to 1868 when they built a new workhouse ,were destroyed.Also haven't tracked down the correct birth cert yet.Mary Ann has no father on her marriage certificate so probablly mother was unmarried.
Do you know who would give her permission to get married as she was under 21 and would this be recorded anywhere ?

Butterworth would be a possibility as I think it's part of Milnrow .
Suzy.

Does anyone know what happened to children born in the workhouse/taken there shortly after birth ?
My great grandma was there in 1866 ,Mary Ann Howarth,mother Sarah.She then seems to disappear until she marries in Rochdale in 1885.Would she have been 'farmed out' sent to school put to work or what ?
