Rosie, I have also bought the birth certificates for Jennie and Agnes. Jennie is correct, she was born at another family address. I need to look further into Agnes' as it doesnt yet fit as easily.

As far as the census goes in 1921, it mentions 6 children under 16, Abraham is over 16 at the time so he wouldnt count. That would leave one more child unaccounted for.

Thank you Rosie,

I have bought the birth certificates for Jennie and Agnes. Jennie was born at a family home so she is correct. Agnes is more complicated so I'll need to do more digging to confirm things.

As for the 1921 Census, it mentions 6 children under 16 but the eldest child is aged 19 so there must be another missing child somewhere.

Thanks, Luke

Cas,

some wonderful gems here. The baptism for Mark & Anne is correct. Ellen Duffy is the sister of Abraham Ent so thats certain too.

I'll research to confirm the other things but this is all really great.

Thank you and thank you all!

The eldest child was Abraham, his birth was registered in 1908 not 1901.  I thought he had been found with his aunt Ellen in 1921 age 13

Apologies Rosie, you are right

There is this marriage

Abraham Entwistle
Registration Date   March Q 1934
Registration District   Halifax
Inferred County   Yorkshire West Riding
Spouse   Margaret E Winter
Volume Number   9a Page number   908

1939 register for couple gives his birthdate as 26 May 1877, same date as you have, so a very good possible it is your Abraham.

1939 - https://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/collections/61596/records/20635419

Possible - Deaths Dec Q 1953   
ENTWHISTLE  Abraham age  75 Halifax    2b   527

1939 for wife transcribed gives b 1870, but I think it is likely 1879

Deaths Sep Q 1956   
Entwhistle    Margaret E   age 77    Halifax    2b   507

There is also this tree that has Agnes birthdate and marriage. No cert data but maybe family knowledge, possibly worth contacting

https://www.ancestry.co.uk/family-tree/person/tree/174028171/person/312255005239/facts

Marriage was 1940 Oldham, 2 likely children to couple. Possibly tree owner is relation.

Thank you once again Cas. The person with the family tree shares a little of DNA with me it would seem so thats a good possibility - I've messaged her. The death certificate is well worth me looking into.

Thanks again, Luke
