the main place that I am stuck is Ashton with John Thomas McWhire who married Susannah Revell. I have no record of birth marriage or death for him but know he is related to me through my family bible.

Any help you can give on this would be greatly appreciated, at least then I may be able to track a connection to Kirkgunzeon.

Thank you

Hi Carrie

You say Ashton?   Do you know any part of this address other than just Asnton?

By the way welcome to Rootschat.  I hope we can help. :)

Regards
Reiver

Hi Reiver

Thanks for your reply. All I have on John Thomas McWhire is the following date of burial 11/11/1914 aged 67 years last living at 5 Oldham Road, Royton. I know that he married Susannah Celia Revell dec qtr 1874 in Ashton Under Lyne but have no further details. Hope this is enough info.

Thanks again

Hi AKC

Looks like you have found him in the only place that I can find him. It seems that after 1881 he vanishes and before 1881 he doesn't exist this is where I'm stuck.

Let me know if you have any more luck.
