Blacksmith in Heath

[Allieg2000]

Hi All

Just wondered if anyone had any information on the Whitworth family from Heath - my great great gran mother was Frances Emily Whitworth brn 1899 in Heath - her father Charles George Whitworth brn 1862 is listed as a blacksmith in Heath but I have not been able to find out any information about a previous blacksmith in Heath at all.

Any help appreciated

Seems to be a family business?

1891 census, reference RG12, Piece 2767, Folio 78, Page 3
Street, Heath, Derbyshire

Whitworth, Charles  Head  Widower  M  63  Blacksmith  b Heath
Whitworth, Charles  Son  M  28  Blacksmith  b Heath
Whitworth, Frank  Son  M  26  Blacksmith  b Heath
Whitworth, Sarah  Daughter  F  21  b Heath
Whitworth, ELiza  Daughter  F  18  b Heath
Holms, William  Boarder  M  31  Blacksmith  b Chesterfield

Charles (senior) was already widowed in 1881.

So, 1871: reference RG10, 3616, 55, 6
Owl Cotes, Heath

Whitworth, Charles  Head  M  48  Blacksmith  b Heath
Whitworth, Ellen  Wife  F  36  b Stainsby

Whitworth, Frank  Son  M  6  Scholar  b Heath
Whitworth, Sarah  Daughter  F  1  b Heath
Mills, John  Apprentice  M  18  Blacksmith  b Nottinghamshire

And, going back to 1851:
Reference HO107, 2418, 35, 17
Red House, Heath

Whitworth, Charles  Head  M  63  Blacksmith  b Heath
Whitworth, Elizabeth  Wife  F  65  b Heath
Whitworth, John  Son  M  32  Blacksmith  b Heath
Whitworth, Charles  Son  M  25  Blacksmith  b Heath
Whitworth, Sarah  Daughter  F  22  House Servant  b Heath

Thank you very much for this - I will now work my way through this information 

Still interested if anyone knows any details on the location of the black smith premises

Hi there

You might want to look here as there is a John Whitworth , blacksmith going back to 1638 on this family line so you may get some help by contacting the owner who has done alot of research, especially on Heath
