Hi, I am trying to research part of my own family, using a bit of research my father has already done.
My 3 x great grandparents were Edward Statter (born circa 1795) and Mary Dover (born circa 1798) and I am the decendant of Elizabeth Statter (born circa 1835 in Liverpool). It is known that Edward was a surgeon in Lime Street and that at least one of his son's; possibly Richard (born circa 1826 in Liverpool) also became a surgeon. Richard is presumed to have married a lady named Mary (born circa 1826), presumably from Lincolnshire, but I have found a record of a possible marriage in March quarter 1846 in Blackburn with the surname Smith.
Would anyone help me by searching the census records from 1841, please?
The other siblings of interest are:
Edward Statter - born circa 1820, Lancaster.. would only be on the 1841 census, as apprently died the following year.
Agnes Statter born circa 1821 Lancaster, married John Richardson, born circa 1820, Liverpool.
Mary Statter born circa 1823, Lancashire, married Gerard Horby; he died after 1855, but no other information.
Thomas Statter born circa 1838, Liverpool. Presumed to have become a watchmaker.
Elizabeth's sister Sarah Statter married Montegue Watts Doubleday, I have a fair amount about them at present and I know many of this family moved out of the area later on in life.
I would also be greatful if someone could trace Elizabeth for me in Lancashire as far as they can please. I do know she moved elsewhere later, but I am unsure when. She never married, but we do find reference to a man with the surname Duffin from time to time, possibly the father to her two children. Lily and James.
I hope someone can help.
Regards and thanks for any future help on this large task.
Liz
