born Fliintshire - died Cheshire
« on: Tuesday 17 October 17 18:19 BST (UK) »
My friend is asking for help trying to track his ancestor:

Emma Richardson
Age 48
Burial Date 14 Mar 1888
Burial Place Knutsford, Cheshire, England

In 1881
she is aged 40
Wife of  William Richardson (bricklayer)
born   Buckley, Flintshire, Wales
Living in Ollerton, Cheshire, England

In 1871
She is aged 29
Wife of William Richardson
born   Hawarden, Flintshire, Wales
living in Over Peover, Cheshire, England

Marriage banns of 1863 in Hawarden, Flintshire, Wales have been located of William Richardson (of Over Peover, Cheshire) to Emma Ball (of this parish) - marriage date as 22nd Sept 1863!

Is the "Emma Bell" in 1861 aged 21 and a servant
born   Buckley Mouintain, Flintshire, Wales
living in Over Peover, Cheshire,  England
our "Emma Ball" ?

He can't locate her in either 1851 or 1841 in Wales, would she be there then?!

thank you so much for the marriage details

I can't find an Emma Ball birth under Great Boughton

And this is the only Thomas Ball in 1841 I can match in Wales:
NAME:   Thomas Ball (a collier)
AGE:   60
ESTIMATED BIRTH YEAR:   1781
GENDER:   Male
WHERE BORN:   Flintshire, Wales
CIVIL PARISH:   Hawarden
HUNDRED:   Mold
COUNTY/ISLAND:   Flintshire
COUNTRY:   Wales
REGISTRATION DISTRICT:   Great Boughton
SUB-REGISTRATION DISTRICT:   Hawarden
living with Hannah Ball 60 & Joseph Ball 20

Is Thomas her grandfather I wonder ?

(William's father's details are a match)

Tried finding a baptism too but nothing fits well either for Emma!

Emma's 1st child was Jane and 2nd child was Hannah (William's mother was a Hannah)

Emma's first male child was William and then Joseph, followed by a Thomas then Henry!

I'll check Staffordshire births now then lol -  thanks ;-)
