Hello Steve,

Thank you very much.

No sign of John senior a school teacher with Ann in 1851?

Curious. I thought Ann was not listed as a widow until 1861 and that spouse John a school teacher was with her in 1851.

Oh. 1823 + 48 = 1871 :D

So:

1851 should be Ann and spouse John
1861 should be Ann a widow with son John
1871 should be Ann a widow alone

Are they all at the same address?

Regards,

Dave

Hello Steve,

Thanks.


ELLISON John 20 Star Queen 5 Mar 1874 IMM/114 593 Z1958 M1697


John junior didn't leave until 1874 so he should still be in England in 1871 census but perhaps not with his mother.

He married in 1873 in London so perhaps he was there in 1871:

Marriages Sep 1873
Ellison John Clement Shoreditch 1c 286
Richardson Martha Helena Shoreditch 1c 286

Regards,

Dave

Hello Steve,

Thank you very much.

The only one death in Ashton but not the right one:

Deaths Mar 1875
ELLISON Ann 74 Ashton 8d 379

Too many John ELLISONs but again no sign of a death in Ashton.
Oh, ok, John senior could have died in Chorlton.

Regards,

Dave

Hello Steve,

Thanks. ;)

I have no info to help with John's (the school master) parents. If his middle initial is A then it's not shown in 1851 census or in any of the 4 possible deaths in Chorlton 1851-1861.

Regards,

Dave

Hello Steve,

Even allowing for John to be 28 not 23 in 1851 and therefore one year older than Ann, I can't see a birth for a John in Yorkshire to parents John & Margaret.

About 10x as many ELLISONs born in Lancashire than in Yorkshire.

I wonder if we can find the marriage and if it's by chance Margaret CLEMENT. :D

The middle name Clement has to come from somewhere. I notice her middle initial is C. :D

No sign of a John ELLISON (variations) marriage to any Margaret in England 1818 +/- 10 years.

Regards,

Dave

Hello Steve,

Thanks.

Since the 1841 only says nbic I don't know where Margaret C. was born.

I'm searching Hugh Wallis' Middle Name site for a Margaret Clement ...

And I was wasting my time. :2fun:

Looks as though C = Coates not Clement.

Regards,

Dave
