Can anyone help me.
My Grandfather was born 1901 Wilfred Radcliffe.
His father was Fred Radcliffe was married to Harriet Radcliffe maiden name Jackson.
I have found Freds parents were Squire Radcliffe and Sarah Ann ?
I havent got anything else really.
I never knew my family so I haven't a lot to go on.
I have found out that Fred and Harriet had a lot of children but only know of Ethel, Wilfred, there was more before Ethel but the census has only given her and Wilfred, also there were others born after 1901 how do I find these.
I could really do with some help plzzzzzzzzz anyone :-\
thank-you ;D

I think that JohnanthanW has the right 1871, but I think that Squire's birthplace reads Sowby Bridge.
That seems odd, because Ovenden and Sowerby Bridge are two different districts of Halifax.

Just to make sure that we have covered the ground.
1861 Halifax index is online at www.1861census.co.uk. There does not appear to be a Squire Radcliffe of the right age.
1851 Halifax is online at www.familyhistoryonline.net (pay-per-view)
1. Squire RADCLIFFE found in Halifax 1851 Census 4 entries in Yorkshire W. Riding during 1851 £0.36
2. Squire RATCLIFFE found in Halifax 1851 Census 3 entries in Yorkshire W. Riding during 1851 £0.27
You really need Squire and Sarah Ann's marriage certificate to confirm which is the 'right' Squire in Hx.
Best of luck.
