G’day folks

Wife. Ellen Welsh nee (Kershaw) I believe
Married abt 1870
Brother. Henry Welsh Age: 54: abt 1827
Son. Henry Welsh Age: 8 abt 1873
Daughter. Alice Welsh Age: 4: abt 1877

Hi George
By 1891 Ellen is widowed but Samuel's brother Henry is still part of her household, as are her children Alice, William and James.
FreeBMD shows a possible death...
September Quarter 1889
Prestwich 8d 275
WELSH Samuel aged 41
By 1901 Alice is married to Archibald DODDS, living Manchester, also in her household is her mother Ellen WELSH and her brother James WELSH
Cheers

Hi,
I'm not sure about the family found in 1871, I found this marriage for a couple which looks more like them,
Marriage: 10 Jul 1869 Holy Trinity (Now St. Peter), Over Darwen, Lancashire, England
Samuel WALSH 20 Labourer Bachelor of Radford St
Ellen ASPIN 20 Weaver Spinster of George St
Groom's Father: Ellis WALSH, Deceased Labourer
Bride's Father: John ASPIN Weaver
Witness: James SANDHAM Elizabeth SANDHAM
Unfortunately I can't find a more likely candidate though :(
Regards,
Daisy

Hello There.....
I think it likely, that the family on the 1861 census, that Karenlee gave you is the correct one.
I have found a baptism for HENRY WELCH.....
Born February 4th 1828, baptised on the 18th, at St Mary the Virgin, Radcliffe
Father Thomas WELCH, Mother ANN
There is a marriage at the same church, on November 3rd 1823, between a Thomas WELSH and a Ann LORD

That is looking good.
Thomas and Ann did have a daughter called Phoebe, and I believe she is the mother of young William age 2.......Now if only we could find them in 1851, with young Samuel !!

Using Familysearch,
http://www.rootschat.com/links/0bq/
I can find baptisms for all the children on the 1841 census, including William, with parents Thomas and Ann. No sign of Alice or Samuel though, I wonder if they were illegitimate children of one of the daughters :-\

Thank you all… :D
Gives me something else to chase up
Cheers…George ;)
