Title: Looking for John Johnson/Mary Ann Hall -Wigan
Post by: Gabriel74 on Saturday 17 April 10 03:45 BST (UK)

Hi all,

Trying to find a record of John Johnson in census records.. so far I can't find him actually at home with his wife Mary Ann Johnson (nee Hall) born 1833 Wigan, Lancashire... Mary is listed as a widow in 1891 (13 Millgate), 1881 (1 Factory Yard, School Common) and living with her mother and children in 1871 (Cross St)

I believe they married in 1854..

thanks for any help... I'd like to find their parents and carry on the family tree.
