Thank you so much for this information  :D  I will now look for the marriage certificate of John and Ann.  Unfortunately I dont live in the UK so cant access your papers (am at the other side of the world. :)

Thats for the info re Samuel Twelves.  I will send away for the birth certificates and see if I can get any more info on Samuel's line - doesnt look as though it will be easy.  Bridgart's apparently were once named Bridgett but it was changed at some point.
Am so glad I found this site. You are all very helpful :D

This is so amazing - thank you so much for all your help :) I will send away for Elizabeth's birth certificate.  Yes, Samuel could well be her father's name.  Can I send for Samuel's birth certificate, do I need a reference number too?
Good to see that John was just away from home visiting - that solves the mystery! :)

The marriage cert shows his father as John Bridgart, joiner (Samuel was a grocer). Married in Independent Chapel Roth Moor Side Walton 21.10.1872 to Elizabeth Twelves whose father is shown as Simon Twelves, moulder.
Just received you message 'no father in 1861' - how very strange considering the information on the marriage certificate.

Am searching for the line back from great grand father Samuel Ebenezer Bridgart.  Have his marriage certificate to Elizabeth Twelves in 1872 but dont have any information prior to that date.  His daughter Ethel (b 1879) was my grandmother. Also interested in any information about Elizabeth Twelves.
