Hi Barbara,

It looks as though the USA family are not yours from Heather's work.
Has she got he right father, Harrison?
What were you basing the USA information on?

Hi Lizdb, and heather Julie,

Thanks so much for your help, it seems I have had the wrong information , someone sent lots of info to me from roots chat a long time ago, and I really enjoyed thinking he was from further a field like America.

Bertha's surname was Cottam her father definitely was Harrison Hutchinson, and mother was Elizabeth Ann ,maiden name mason.

so now will have to check Herbert green out instead of Thompson and not forgetting the child Herbert Harrison green.

I am so glad I decided to research Bertha with William again, otherwise I would not have ever known I had the wrong names hey.

thanks again all of you

I found this family living in Stockport

1901

2 Hegginbottoms Court, Stockport

Herbert Green Head 25 born Coventry Warwickshire   Blacksmith
Mary Green Wife 23 born Warwick
Leonard Green Son 3 born Coventry
Lillian Green Daughter 9 Months born Birmingham

I can't find them in 1911

Did Herbert run off with a pregnant Bertha?

You are correct heywood. That family has a child born in Bredbury so the 1901 is not the Herbert we are seeking. ;)

Hi Heather,

 I thought I would look-up those names you gave me for the green family.
""
1913 Edith Atherstone Warwickshire  does it mean mother cottam?

1905 Ruth Lillian did not say where, I assume its Warwickshire?

1907 Herbert harriason is that spelt wrong, maybe meant to be Harrison?  also Warwickshire.?

1910 Julia maud  also Warwickshire?

I take it these are all children of Bertha and Herbert green?

I was only able to find one and that was 1905 Ruth.

So just wondered if you found this information somewhere else.
