Title: 1841 Speakman Family
Post by: leeric on Monday 01 October 07 12:09 BST (UK)

Hi,

Looking for the following Speakman family who were resident Elliot Street, Tyldesley in '51:

Ellen b.1780 Atherton, Grocer/Draper (widowed in '51)

Children:

Alice b.1816 Shop Woman
Mary b.1817 Heald Knitter
Ellen b.1819 Heald Knitter
Thomas b.1821

All born Tyldesley.

Think Ellen's spouse is John, possibly married Hindley in 1810 so maybe no children born before then.

Many thanks.
