Well done Welsh Lady

Although I subscribe to ancestry the new parish records are not included in my subscription alas.

Too many things did not add up here and I just knew that he was a child of Julia Hilditch.   Your discovery means that unless still wanted Fiona does not have to purchase the birth certificate.

Well done - that seems to answer that question.... big fat fibbers! makes genealogy much harder than it already is! Well, I suppose that is part of the fun for all of us isn't it?

So, John may or may not be real - a distant are imaginative figure, Julia is real, as are her parents and siblings - so at least I know that now. As for who she ended up marrying, well, I might go with the original idea that it was William Morris that she married in 1883 due to the death info of 1888. Will now look to see if she had any children in between that time.

Thank you all for your help with this one - waste of money if they tell lies, thank goodness for other sources!

Annette,

You mentioned that in 1871 Julia was working away from home, could you please find  her parents, George and Ann Hilditch to see if there was one more child born between 1860-1868?

This looks like the marriage
Alsager was in the Barthomly Parish in the Hundred of Nantwich

Qtr Dec 1846 Nantwich,Cheshire
George Hilditch to either Ann Warburton or Ann Platt

Looks like Ann Warburton but youd need to confirm with marriage cert

George Hilditch is in the same area working on a Farm as an Ag lab age 20.

Sending for George and Anns marriage will confirm if these are the correct family it looks like it

Good Luck

Hello
     I read with interest the question posted by Fionakennedyarnold on Monday 30/June/2008. As George Hilditch, father of Julia Hilditch was my Great Great Grandfather, I did some research myself and I found that a Julia Morris was on a Passenger List to Melbourne Australia in 1890. So I would like to know if the death of Julia in 1888 was confirmed. Also Harry and Ethel Hilditch had 2 girls when they left for Australia Nina and Edith and they had a son George in Australia
