Hi Tati,

Thanks for the look up – that was quick!

Interesting 3 new additions to the family. :o

Richard is the main one I’m following – he is not easy to track down being a mariner, I can’t find him in 1871 either.

In 1841 he was with his grandparents in Warton – Richard and Isabella Wright – perhaps you could see if he is staying with them? - If they are still living.

Thanks again

Jennie

I don't think he's in Warton - more probably at sea  :(

Wonder if this is his grandmother?
