Margaret Woodcock

Thanks. The 1911 census says Hannah had 7 children but only one  living. Still no joy on a Woodcock /Taylor  marriage  but that's a job for tomorrow. So much progress thanks to everyone.

Thank you so much.

Hello again.


Sorry not to reply on your point Rosie  before now about Margaret Woodcock born  1875 Aughton. Taken a little while to sort records -but alas not the person I need. She married James Yates 15/10/1893 and died 16 Jan 1934 at Aughton.

Margaret and her family are proving a complete mystery. Her Husband Taylors family came from Bacup and were Baptists --would this affect the available records.?

I can find no Woodcock/ Heighway marriage--the name on the 1911 census and no Taylor /Heighway marriage.Or a plausable Taylor?Woodcock marriage .  Begining to wonder if Margaret Woodcock and William James taylor were married.
No luck on finding any birth record for May/Mary E Heighway  or Taylor.

Nor can I find a pausable death record for Williams mother Hannah Taylor aged 81 on the 1911 census.

This family is a mystery---perhaps deliberate ? and yet we pick up records from 1921 onwards.

I have ordered what I hope is the death record of Judith Rothwell in the hope of some clues.

Just by way of update. The Death certificate for Judith Rothwell nee Taylor  shows her death on 2/2/1912 at 32 west derby Road--the same address as the 1911 Census. Informant her son William J Rothwell. But he gives his mothers age as 74--not 84 .

hello again. I  have just got the death Cert for Hannah Taylor mentioned in 1911 census. She died 23 Nov 1913 in the workhouse. Son William James Taylor the informatant. His address still32 West Derby road .
He gives his mothers age this time as 74--so younger than on 1911 census .
Also says she is the widow of a John taylor a weaver--so those census returns I found with a William James  Taylor ,mother hannah,Father David are wrong.

Any thoughts please on how to find a birth record in Bacup for William James Taylor the son--having failed so far. Perhaps i should start a seperate thread?so as not to confuse the searches.
