HELLO THANK YOU FOR REPLYING SO QUICKLY, JUST DECIDED TO HAVE ONE LAST LOOK BEFORE GOING TO BED.  ANOTHER MARRIAGE SHOWS FOR THOMAS SPENCER SHOWS A MARY DUNAKIN IN OLD GLOSSOP CHURCH RECORDS, 29TH AUGUST 1831 BUT THIS COULD BE A MISTAKE AND IT COULD BE PAUL SPENCER'S WIFE

MY SEARCHING HAS ONLY RECENTLY STARTED SO NOT VERY MUCH TO OFFER YOU AT PRESENT IT LOOKS AS IF MARY AND THOMAS LIVED IN AGENORIAN BUILDINGS, ARDWICK IN THE 1841 ARDWICK CENSUS AND ORDSALL LANE, SALFORD IN THE 1851 CENSUS.  WE ARE GOING TO MANCHESTER AFTER CHRISTMAS AND HOPE TO VISIT MOSTON CEMETERY,  TO TRY AND FIND SOME OF THE FAMILY GRAVES.  WENT THERE WITH MY DAD TOO MANY YEARS AGO TO COUNT BUT CANNOT REMEMBER WHAT THE PLOT NUMBERS WERE.  BYE FOR NOW  MCS

Hello

I have seen you posts several times but tonight noticed the Judge family name - Bridget Judge and John Spencer are my dad's grandparents - My dad's name was also John and he was born in 1909 in Thomas Street, Gorton. His mum and dad were Robert Spencer and Elizabeth Ann Courtney they married in Sept 1898.   It looks like Thomas Spencer married Mary Donigan - she was born in County Kildare - on the 1851 Salford census she was 41 years old. Thomas and Mary were my dad's great grandparents.  It would be lovely to hear if you have any more news.  My dad always told me the story that his mum was working down the coal mines at 7/9 years of age and that one of her sons used to help her clean the St. francis Gorton school when she was widowed because the ends of her fingers used to crack and bleed badly.  So far it has proved impossible to find any records of her working down the mines.  bye Mary Spencer
