Just come across Your Post regarding the Garlick Family, who emigrated to Canada. I thought the Names and Southport place name sounded familiar.

John Garlick, born 1851 Greenhalgh, who married Ann Porter, is My First Cousin, twice removed, the son of Ambrose Garlick born 1817 Greenhalgh (Second Great Uncle) and spouse Margaret Rossall.

You might already know that that John Garlick moved to Southport, from the Weeton/Greenhalgh area, which is located, on the Fylde Coast of Lancashire, from where the Garlicks are originally from.

Ambrose Garlicks Sister, Alice Garlick born 1824 Greenhalgh, is My Great Grand Mother. This appears an early ancestor, to Myself,  but one of Her sons, My Maternal Grand Father, married My Grand Mother in His late 50s, His second marriage.

So there's My Family connection to Canada.

Kind regards,

Hello, I know  it's some time since this request was posted,  but as I have Redferns in My Family Tree, I took an interest. The marriage between James Redfern and Judith Brown is listed on the Free BMD Web Site. However the Names quoted are John Redfern to a Julia Brown. The marriage is Registered at Congleton for the June Quarter 1852. Also, if You register on the GRO Web Site, You can look up Births and Deaths, free of charge. The Births give the Mother's Maiden Name, and in Your case the four Sons, You mention, all have a Brown down as the Mother's Surname. The dates are correct, apart from Matthew's, who was born in 1871. All Registered at Congleton.

Regards, and hope this helps.
