Any clue as to which Rothwell?
-
Sorry, Rothwell, Leeds, never entered my head about there being another Rothwell in England.

No problem , the downside of spending years tramping the country in trucks is that you often learn the hard way that most place names apply to several possible locations!!!!!
-
Do you think you can help, now you have the correct Rothwell?
Just off the subject, i work for a logistics company, though we dont have many trampers anymore. Think the our trucks only go as far up as Newcastle but go all the way down south to the ports.

I'm having a scout around but nothing seems to be jumping out for her, will post back anything that looks interesting.

I could be wrong, as just staring at the dates i do have ,Ellen got married when 16 ?
Wish i had my census for 1841, if she got married in 1831. I am doing a sneaky at work at present so dont have anything infront of me

James Carncross born 1811, he married Ellen hutchinson born 1814 and they married January 10th 1831 in Rothwell, i just cant seem to get back any further, i can go forward easy enough.
I have same problem with a John Jackson and Ann Smallpage married 1810 StPeters leeds, i can go forward but not backward.
Would their marriage certs have info on them, i have old birth certs for other family members but they dont have any info except name and date and dont really want to buy certs if there is nothing on them.

1841 census for information (transcribed as Carinorop):
Hoyles Court, Leeds
James Cairncross, 35, Musician, Not born in County
Ellen, 25, born in County
Charles, 5, born in county
Austin, 3, Born in County
Mary, 1, Born in County
Although she married in Rothwell, I can`t see that it says Rothwell as her place of birth on any census. Once it says Woodhouse and the rest are Leeds.

Thank you Mo for your reply, i know she had eight children in total and Ellen re married in 1858 to a William Flowers.
Ellens last child John A Carncross was born 3 years after James death ?.
When you say County, do you mean Yorkshire, and James was born outside Yorkshire ?
She is a mysteries lady.
-
Hi,
Yes, for the County I mean Yorkshire and James was not born in Yorkshire.
regards,

Hi Joanne,
Ellen Hutchinson and James Cairncross would be my 3rd Gr Grandparents. I've forwarded your message to other family researchers in the family.
What is your relationship to them?
