1861 Census lookup - PENKETH - ST HELENS - Please
« on: Friday 27 January 06 01:54 GMT (UK) »
Really finding it hard to get the Penketh line back would be very very grateful if someone could help me.

ELLEN PENKETH - Born abt 1853 in St Helens

Names that might give a clue as to correct Ellen could be John and Catherine.

Thanks

Hello,

It might be nearly four years old but no need creating a new thread when you know you've asked about the same family before. Good old Rootschat, keeping everything  :)

I stumbled across a unseen site which has shown up some Penketh's who are certainly related to me but I don't have any record of them. So I've been going through my data and I find its shockingly bare!

As you can see from above, Mo very kindly brought up my Penketh's from the 1861 census.

Could someone be ever so kind and find them using that from above for the '41, 51 and '71 census'

I have Ellen, Catherine and Peter on the 1881 census

Thankyou


Merry Christmas

Jonathan

Hi,

The address of High Street, Eccleston is interesting as the same address would now be High Street, Prescot.

That thought lead me to this a John Penketh married a Catherine Kelly 17 Nov 1833 at Prescot St Mary - High Street Prescot is about 100 yards from St Mary's Church.

John is described as  Labourer, widower of Eccleston and  Catherine spinster of Eccleston - both sign X - witnesses Thomas Sallon  and Mary Kelly again both sign X


Regards

John
