I'm really struggling to find this families Cheshire roots.
They appear in the 1841 census (& all later ones) in Wolverhampton. The children's birth place is taken from the census.
John born about 1802 Sandbach married Sarah born about 1800 Sandbach Heath
they had John b. about 1826 in Sandbach
Mary Ann was born about 1827 in Sandbach
Anna or Maria was born about 1829 in Sandbach
Ellen was born about 1831 in Sandbach
Samuel was born about 1833 in Horblet Heath
Rachael was born about 1836 in Horlbet Heath, Sandbach
Maria was born about 1839 in Sandbach
I have found some marriages for a John & Sarah, but none that really convinced me I'd found the right one. I certainly haven't found baptisms for the children or civil registration for Maria. I also have no idea where Horblet or Horlbet Heath is.
Any help would be gratefully received.

Hi and welcome to Rootschat
I notice on the 1851 entry that an Ann Cartwright aged 2 and Elizabeth Cartwright 8mths are shown as daughters. Have you checked to see if their births were registered in Staffs? A possibility for Elizabeth
Births June qtr 1850
Elizabeth Cartwright Wolverhampton 17 383

Thanks for replying & the welcome
Ann & Elizabeth are Mary Ann's daughters, presumably by Charles Jones, who she later married.
So unfortunately they are another dead end :'(
