Vickress & Gaskell (Rainow/Macclesfield)

[cimbrio]

I was wondering if anyone could give me a hand with some family research. Two of my great-great-grandmother's siblings (originally from Herefordshire) moved to Cheshire. I know whom they married and the name of their children, and a rough time of birth, but I'd like to know if anyone here is at all connected, or knows any more details about them.

They are:

Diana Vickress (b. 1851 Lyonshall, Heref.), married 1878 Macclesfield (maybe in Rainow?) Robert Gaskell (Rainow 1848-Rainow 1898). Seven children born:
1.Frederick (1879)
2. Ann (1883)
3. Florence (1885)
4. Elizabeth (1887)
5. Samuel (1889)
6. Emma (1893)
7. Dora (1896), married Harry B. Hawley.
The first two were born in Rainow; the others in Bollington.

Thomas Frederick Vickress (b. 1862 Lyonshall, Heref.) married 1887 Macclesfield (possibly also in Rainow?) Lydia Sutton (b. 1858 Rainow). Five children, I think all born in Rainow:
1. Lydia Ellen (1889)
2. Thomas Frederick (1891-1892)
3. Eveline May (1893)
4. Charles Henry (1895)
5. Constance Mary (1900). 

Thanks for all your help!

Blimey CaroleW, what a way to mees up the names they had LOL

Milborough (a girl's name, repeated several times in the family) I've seen spelt Milbro, Milbrow, Milboro... Any trace of Diana or her brother Thomas Frederick in Cheshire? I wonder if there are any Vickresses in cheshire today...

Thanks for your help CaroleW!
