Records for Apprentice Tailors in the Rossendale area of Lancashire.
« on: Sunday 16 April 23 07:01 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Try as I might I have not been able to find any record of the apprenticeship of Edmund Whitaker baptised 4 October 1795 in Newchurch, and living in Four Lane Ends, Newchurch, Rossendale. By the time he joins the army in 1813 he is already described by occupation as a Tailor - not an apprentice.
Where would I search for his apprenticeship records. I have tried the usual family history sites to no avail.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards
Tilly Ann
Whittaker (originally from Newchurch, Rossendale then Manchester) and Seel (Manchester).
