Charles Holt b 1811

[Monty Dog]

 Charles married Alice Holland in 1832, they had several children, Samuel Foden Holt b 1834 was my
Gt Grandad. On the 1841 and 1851 censuses there are 4 girls but I can find no trace of them after this. Apart from Ann who married George Duncan in 1859.

Alice died and Charles married Elizabeth Cunnah nee Jones on 6 Oct 1855 in Liverpool, but I can’t find them on the 1861 or following censuses. Nor anywhere else. Guess I could be looking in the wrong places, help/suggestions welcome.

Could you please name the girls you want help with and their year and place of birth

[CaroleW]

You have posted on the Common Room board so we have no clue as to which county any of the people you mention were born or were living in 1851

On the 1841 and 1851 censuses there are 4 girls

  Without names and birthyears/birthplaces we cannot help.  Rosie has already asked for further info

Apart from Ann who married George Duncan in 1859.

That marriage was in Manchester & she is shown as Annie Holt aged 18.  Charles Holt is shown as a joiner on the marriage cert

There is also another Charles & Alice Holt in Rochdale Lancs in 1841 & 1851

The Charles Holt who married in Liverpool 1855 was a joiner - father Samuel Foden Holt

[rosie99]

I saw that the Liverpool marriage named Charles father as Samuel Foden Holt but have not found anything for Samuel Foden Holt bn 1834.

I am going to stop for today Carole, hopefully we will get some answers from Monty Dog

The family are indeed living in Wisbech in 1851 (on the site I am looking at - the Genealogist - it says 'Geographically Cambridge'.)

Charles born Worsley. Useful to know. However must have gone back to Lancs to marry in Liverpool in 1855.

The children all born Tyldesley, except Samuel - born Worsley and the baby Mary Jane born ?Upwell Isle? -- not Lancs anyway, presumably Cambridgeshire.
