Cheshire Surname Research

[June Thompson]

Hello Peter,
Thank you very much for all the effort you have made on my behalf with the MULLINER Family, I really appreciate it.
The marriage you have found of William Mulliner and Mary Duckas 29/12/1824 is the marriage I have got for them.
I think the answer is like you say to buy the birth certificate for Mary Junior.
Or failing that check out the 1841 Census for Shropshire.
By the way, I just thought I should let you know that this is not my MULLINER Family I am researching.
Its the family of a friends daughter. She is only 17 and is really enthusiastic about doing her Family History. I think it is absolutely brilliant that she is doing it now at such a young age. Don't we all wish we had started researching years ago. I've managed to help her get  back this far with her MULLINERS, so I'm now hoping to take them back even further.
Thanks again for your kind help Peter,
Best Wishes,
June

 good on'er and well done you for the encouragement, when I tried with my son he was 18, he said he was doing his own research into the oldies she's female and nearly 25.

Good luck

I was wondering if anyone could help me?

I'm looking for information on the Sadler family, particularly from Witton, Davenham and Northwich.
My 3rd great grandfather was James Sadler, born c.1830-1831 in Witton. He later became a flat waterman and moved to Widnes, probably in the 1860s.
I've found quite a few Sadlers from the Witton area living in Tabley St Witton St and Church Lane around the 1850's but i can't find the link! A William Sadler and (another) James Sadler were born in Witton around the same time and went on to become watermen (1851 census), any suggestions???

Hi!

Have you tried this site for Cheshire, there is quite a number of Sadlers surnames on there, it covers the Northwich area, and you can do a surname search.

dear peter; I wanted to thankyou for  your  information. rob king

I have discovered that my greatgrandmother HANNAH READ was born in Wilmslow Cheshire in 1875, but, although I have her marriage certificate (she married WILLIAM E JOYCE in Oct.1891 in Manchester), and know that she died in 1929, I cannot find any trace of her family, apart from she states on her marriage certificate that her father was JOHN THOMAS READ, Brickmaker, deceased, and I found her in the 1901 census, living in Manchester with her husband and 7 year old daughter, Catherine.  But her mother is living with them and states her name to be ANN PROCTER, widow, aged 54, born Wilmslow Cheshire.
Why would her mother's name be PROCTER and not READ?  Could she have remarried after Hannah's father died?  I'm stumped and can't think what to do next.  I've tried to send for a birth certificate for HANNAH READ but Stockport register office told me they can't find her.  Anyone any suggestions, please?

Chris, thank you SO much!  Can you make out which street she's living in?  Is she a boarder, perhaps?  Her husband (my greatgrandfather) lived in Bradford, so that must be where they met, and I'm wondering if he was nearby.  Thanks again,  Marie (Jack33)
