Not looking good, John gives father as Benjamin..

[DaveHam9]

Thanks Geoff.

How then is Wright a son of George? Or is George an error?

Parents of Ann?

Death for Ellen?

Dave

 

[horse]

Dunno, Dave.. just thought that John could be a brother of George?

Geoff

EDIT: Not sure why he is quoted as son in 1851, unless as you say it was an error.

 

[DaveHam9]

Probably, but Wright would be a nephew. Also, 1 week can't fit.

There may be something between 1 and week on the image unless the W is very extended backwards..

Yep, found a possible bap now..

Geoff

 

[DaveHam9]

Thanks Geoff.

1851 30 March

Born 31 Dec 1849 so makes no sense. 66 weeks it's not.

No other birth reg for a Wright Morton to explain 10-19 weeks on 31 Mar 1851. Looks like 12 to me.

Thanks Geoff.

Yeah, something wrong with that 1851 image! Wright looks to be b. Q1 1850.

John & Ellen in 1851 ??

If John's father is Benjamin then John is not George's brother (father = James).

John & Ellen in 1851 ??

If John's father is Benjamin then John is not George's brother (father = James).

Yep, we can eliminate that theory..

Any one of those Q1 births may fit, but they would have had to change the surname in the census?

Geoff

 

[DaveHam9]

If it is 1 week then could be registered in June Qtr and if 10-19 weeks then Mar Qtr but no surname fits.

I have Mellor, Crosland and Haigh in my tree all in WRY but all connected to Hirst/Kilner not Barraclough/Morton.
