Thanks for your offer of help.
I am looking for John & Mary Ellen (or Mary Ann)Daley. The only info I have is that John worked for the railway and that Mary Ellen was a widow aged 37 with 2 children (aged 3 & 1) on 1881 census. Fathers name & mothers maiden name are not shown on either birth certificate. Mother is shown as Mary Ann on one & Mary Ellen on the other and as born in Widnes.
Thanks again.
Pat

Hi

The only John Daley in Widnes on the 1871 census was a lodger at 3 Railway St.  He was 23, unmarried b Ireland.  His occupation was Labourer - chemical

In view of the ages of the children in 1881, it looks as though they only married around the mid-1870's - probably around 1876

Cheers
Carole
