Thetfords
« on: Wednesday 13 September 06 13:39 BST (UK) »

   I'm trying to find any relatives of William Thetford of Manchester, England b.1801 in Ireland. William had a son called Henry Thetford also born in Ireland in 1821 so I can only guess that William left Ireland after the year 1821 to move to Manchester.

   William also had a couple of daughters. One called Jane, who was married to a man called Adam Craig and one called Jessey who was born in Dublin in 1819. Jessey lived in Manchester and was known in 1881 as Jessey Todd.

   Information on any Thetford from Ireland will be delightfully recieved. Thank you,
      Josh.

Hello Josh,
What denomination were your Thetford ancestors ???

It may be difficult to find information as compulsory civil registration of non-Roman Catholic marriages did not begin in Ireland until April 1st, 1845. The registration of
births, deaths and all marriages commenced on January 1st, 1864.
