Hi

Can anyone check either of the census for me please, looking for Adam Ridgway (Ridgeway) born Bramall/Hazel Grove, parents I think Thomas and Martha Ridgeway, have him married in 1871 living Brewers Green, but would like to find if any others in the family.  Adam was aged 38 in 1871.

Thank you

Hi Peter

Thank you again for your help, I found on the IGI  a baptism for Adam Ridgeway in 1833 at Ebenezer Congregational or Independent at Hazel Grove son of Thomas and Martha, what do you think

Hi Jackie
              It looks as though Thomas and Martha are favourites but I would try and confirm this from Adams marriage cert.

Hi Peter

Thank you again for your help, had a look at Adams marriage certificate it had Adam Ridgway (24)  - father Thomas to
Mary Ardern age 22 - address for both down as just Bosden so seems to fit with 1851 but will double check did not make note of Thomas's occupation so will have another look to confirm.

Again many thanks for taking the trouble to check for me.


Regards

Jackie
