Yates family from Lancashire
« on: Tuesday 10 October 17 21:55 BST (UK) »
Hi there
I'm trying to trace a Samuel or Joshua Yates from Lancashire (probably the Bedford/Leigh area) who would have been born about 1870. He emigrated to New Zealand and had 4 daughters, including a set of twins. Any clues how I might find them?
Many thanks!
Emma

His father could have also been Samuel, as I was originally given the info that they were both called Joshua, but discovered today from my great grandmother's marriage cert that the father was actually called Samuel, which means the son might have been too I guess!

If you know he had 4 daughters including a set of twins have you looked for their birth registrations on NZ BDM's? their birth certificates would give his first name.
What exactly are all the details on  your greatgrandmother's marriage certificate?

In 1881 they are still in Liverpool but there is no son Samuel age about 11 however there is another son Samuel age 4!
Elizabeth's maiden name is Gaskell, from the marriage record.
