KEMP - HELP
« on: Thursday 14 June 07 16:26 BST (UK) »
I am still trying to find the birth of Thomas Kemp b Manchester baptised in Manchester Cathedral Nov 1845  His father was James age 30 a butcher and they are together in the 51 census age 6 and In the 61 census Age 16 and 40 living in Hulme.  his marriage certificate to Martha Wild shows John St Hulme and his father as James Kemp butcher.  I sent for what looked like an appropriate birth certificate for 7 12 1843 and got a father of John Kemp (cotton warper) and mother Ellen Kemp of Greengate Salford which is obviously not right.  There was no other likely birth that I could see. On all the censuses Thomas is down as being born in Manchester as is  his father James. he wife of James is called Mary Moores.

I have searched BMDs on Ancestry and elsewhere to no avail.  I cannot find James Kemp his father in the 1841 census either.  He would be 20

I do not know where to go next any ideas?

Hi  Sorry to be late getting back to you, just got back home.  I never thought of Chorlton, believing him to be born in Manchester.  I will certainly go down this avenue now as the date seems just right. thank you

Just heard from Manchester RO and they have a match for me with parents names etc.  So well done, Now I need to find him in the 41 census, pesumably with his father William, but no luck so far
