I can't find the tree you mention - there is a later one for a George and Ada (smith) with an Emma  Nicholl visiting...

Thanks Heywood

Yes that was the info I wanted and the ages confirm what we thought. I
 wonder what happened to George

The full address for the family tree is;

thanks again

Ann and George are reunited in 1871- living in Manchester with 2 more children besides Arthur. George is a bricklayer so could be working away in 1861.
Just found him lodging in Derbyshire but as he is not yours - it doesn't matter!

thanks Heywood

I found them in Manchester in 1881 and wondered  if it was them.

I am awaiting a reply from the author of the family tree re my claim for Ann!

I'll post the result.

Thanks for all your help

[heywood]

now I am confused- I thought your Ann was the other one !

Hi Heywood

Sorry fo any confusion .

'My' Ann is (I hope) Ellen's sister. The one in the tree but not married to George!!!

[heywood]

sorry- I realise now - well it all looks as though it has come together for you
best wishes

Hi Heywood

Just to let you know that the author of the other family tree believes I have a better claim to Ann than he does.

I now intend to check Baptism Rcords. See;
