1871 lookup
« on: Wednesday 11 April 07 18:46 BST (UK) »
Hi there

This time looking for a family named Bradbury who are missing in 1871

1861
John Bradbury, 37, fishmonger, b. Hanley
Elizabeth Bradbury, 35, b. Hanley
John Bradbury, 7, b. Longton
Alfred Bradbury, 3, b. Longton

Living in Market Lane , Longton

1881
Betsey Bradbury, 54, house property owner, b. Hanley
John T Bradbury, 27, unemployed clerk, b. Longton

Living in Paddock Street, Hanley

John Bradbury dies in 1877 and Alfred, living in Hull in 1871,returns home with a wife in 1891 but
cannot find Betsey or John T in 1871.
Could someone please see if they have more luck.

     regards  IJL

Hi there

Thanks for that KD. I tried variuos spellings but would never of
thought about Brading.
I too found John in the workhouse but cant be sure he is the one.
The Family where fishmongers and property owners so would one
of their own be in the workhouse?
Once again many thanks
