Can anybody help please! I am looking for a John Nicholson and wife Ann. John was a farmer living at Bolton Hall Farm, Bolton, Bradford in 1851. I have the district as both Calverley and Idle on other information. John was born in Scotland, wife in Woodchurch, Cheshire and in 1851 there should be at least one child - Christoper aged 2, also possibly a baby James born 1851.
Many thanks,
Maggie

Oh isn't that wonderful to make a contact like that. I checked her profile and Maggie was last on here shortly after midnight gmt so I'm sure she will be in touch soon. Good luck to you both with your researches.
