Here is what I have so far from the 1881 census RG11/4036 /94 p33
And here is what I have from 1871

I cannot find him on the 1861 and before and am really stuck. I also can't find details of his wife Sarah Jane's maiden name. Please can anyone help?

Thank you so much for that. You are a star. Now we know the maiden name which we did not have before ;D
Still no luck on Robert in 1861 though. We have been searching for hours. Looks like it has been mis transcribed :'(
Thanks for the marriage index though that is fab!!

Hi
Do you have ancestry access?? I can see Robert in 1851 as a grandson, but the writing is awful. I will post the reference just in case you have access
RG H0107 2237 628 71 I think the grandparents names are Ann and Elijah?

Yes I have the census. I will look now thanks.

Hi again. Been studying that info which is fab. I see it is on two pages though. Now if you look on the second page you will see the family listed under the Hawleys we have looked it the family under it is also Hawley they must have lived next door. I cannot make out any of the names or ages or anything though :( This is the worst census return I have ever seen. Can anyone make anything out of it?

Hi

Ann Hawley 79, b Hooley Hill, Lancs
Louisa 39, Cotton Weaver, b Dukinfield Cheshire
Robert S 29, Schoolmaster, b Dukinfield Cheshire
There is also another Hawley family next door.
Hope this helps.

Christening from IGI
Robert Stanley Hawley, 5 June 1831, St Michael's, Ashton Under Lyne - Mother: Alice Hawley, no father listed.
Looks like he is the son of Elijah and Ann's daughter Alice.

Forgot to mention. There are quite a few baptisms for the children of Elijah and Ann on IGI.

Hello yellowfurbaby,
Just browsing through the Cheshire Archives and found your interest in Robert Stanley Hawley.
I have plenty of information about Robert's father John Stongi'th'arm Stanley plus somewhere in my files another living descendant of Robert's. The STANLEYS were my husband's maternal line and I have done lots of research about them.
Please get in touch.
