Dear all,
may I ask you again, as I didn't get any further...

Census 1841 Bootle Street, Deansgate, Manchester, Lancashire
Matthew Rolf, 35,  place of birth not in Lancs
Elizabeth Rolf, 30, pob Lancs (no sign of her in census 1851)
Charles Rolf, 7, pob Lancs (no sign of him in census 1851)
Thomas Rolf, 3, pob Lancs (census 1851 Swinton Industrial School, Eccles)
William Rolf, 8 months, pob Lancs (no sign of him in census 1851)

Matthew was a cordwainer / shoemaker. I guess, he died 1846 in Man (https://de.findagrave.com/memorial/221827282/mathew-rolf).

I found a Matthew Rulf, bapt 28 Feb 1801 in Rumboldswyke, Sussex. His father Robert was a shoemaker. Mother's name: Sarah. I am still investigating that line.

I am also working on Julia Lance Rolfe (* 1842) and her family (Julia Rolfe, 1840-1842, Julia Hannah Lance, *1810, William Rolfe 1811-1851, ... ). Thank you heatherjulie!

I couldn't find any birth cert or bapt of Matthew, of Elizabeth and of their children. I've been searching in Lancs BMD, UK GRO, ancestry, familysearch. Any idea?

Thomas married Sarah Westwood on 31 Jan 1869 in St Simon, Salford, Lancashire.
Father: Matthew Rolf, shoemaker. I don't need further info on Thomas.

Thank you in advance
