Hi. I'm looking for some help tracing back from my 4xgreat-grandparents, Charles Hooper and his wife Charlotte. I believe Charlotte's name was Lawton before she was married. I can find them in the 1841 census living at Cricketts Lane, Ashton-under-lyne, Lancashie with their four children Mary, Thomas, Martha and John and two others (Joseph Platt and Elizabeth Platt). there is a later record on the 1851 census of Charlotte Hooper and her son John as paupers in the Union workhouse. I'm struggling to find anything else for Charles or Charlotte so if anyone can help or point me in the right direction I'd be appreciative. Many thanks. Dawn :)

Wow! What an amazing response. Thank you all so much for your help and suggestions for this. For clarification, Charlotte's surname being Lawton was a suggestion from another family member who has tried to do some research in the past but they may have been mistaken and I think what you have found looks much more likely. Thanks again everyone :D

Hi
There is a marriage for Charles Hooper and Charlotte Lawton in Glossop, Derbyshire, 16th May 1824
This is the only marriage that I could find. It is in the right area at about the right time. I haven't seen the original so it could be a transcription error
-
Charlotte Shaw married John Lawton in Stockport 18th December 1815 :D
-
There is a death for John Lawton in Mottram in Longdendale 25th April 1824 aged 34
He'd still be warm when she remarried! ;D

He'd still be warm when she remarried! ;D
More respectable than moving in as "housekeeper" and getting married 3 kids later...
