Can anyone help? Michael Dougan Manchester

[philipsearching]

He was born in Manchester and lived all his life in Manchester. Several addresses. 1891 3 Cohen Street, 1901 Dickens Street, 1907 he died at what was probably his home address of 26 Werneth Street.  I have looked through the names of Dugguns and other names that could have been mistaken for Dougan. Thanks for all the interest so far. The Slater directory for Manchester show he had a Hairdressers shop at 43 Dale Street Manchester from 1879 to 86 though was also living at 8 Butler Street. I have no idea why they moved around so much.

Two questions:
What is the evidence for him being born in Manchester? (Birth? Baptism?)
Does the marriage cert give his father's occupation?

He was born in Manchester and lived all his life in Manchester. Several addresses.

1891 3 Cohen Street,

1901 Dickens Street,

1907 he died at what was probably his home address of 26 Werneth Street. 

I have looked through the names of Dugguns and other names that could have been mistaken for Dougan. Thanks for all the interest so far.

The Slater directory for Manchester show he had a Hairdressers shop at 43 Dale Street Manchester from 1879 to 86 though was also living at 8 Butler Street.

I have no idea why they moved around so much.

Does the marriage cert give his father's occupation?

There's this birth entry

Michael DOUGAN mmn ARCHER
1853  S Quarter in MANCHESTER  Volume 08D  Page 216   

There's this marriage

Sep 1848 Manchester 20 433
Eliza Alexander
Male name on same page
Michael Dougan

Married 16th July 1848 Manchester
Michael DOUGAN 21 occ Slater, 85 Angel Street, father John, Sawyer
Eliza ALEXANDER 20, 5 Ludgate Street father John labourer
Both made their mark (x) as did witness John Leatherbarrow
other witness Ellen Draynes?

[heywood]

That looks possible Ladyhawk.

I wonder what the father’s occupation was and who were the witnesses at the marriage?

The one I mentioned earlier is possibly at Back Style Street in 1851 2230/ 447/49
 Ann Dugan with sons Michael 4yrs and John 8 yrs.
This would make Michael's age wrong though in later records.
Ann marries Michael Daly in 1851.

"No idea why they moved around so much" - possibly that they only rented the accommodation.  Most people at this time did not own the property - they were tenants.

Did someone mention a Gannett Street.  If so, can you give me the information again. This may be the person I am looking for.  I have the marriage certificate and it gives his father's occupation as Joiner. I cannot read the names of the witnesses  but it does look like  W McCarthy and Daisy Harriett.Thank you everyone for your help. HAVE FOUND THE GARNET STREET DETAILS. SO NO NEED TO SEND AGAIN. MANY THANKS. Thought I could link the family in Garnet street up with the family I'm looking for but so far have been unable to. So back to the drawing board.
