Yorkshire (West Riding) / Re: Percival Taylor who married Annie Stead in 1919
« on: Sunday 27 February 22 11:09 GMT (UK)  »

Thank you all for your suggestions regarding Percival Taylor and Annie Stead.  It will take me some time to check everything out, but without your help I would never have been able to do so.

If you know anything else about Annie, or a child, I would love to know.  Or if there is anyone else who may have information, please post it.

How do I locate Annie Stead on the 1939 Register ?  I don’t know where she lived, whether she had died, or whether she had married again.

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Percival Taylor who married Annie Stead in 1919
« on: Saturday 26 February 22 07:23 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to trace for a distant cousin of mine who lives in Australia, what happened to Annie Stead who married her Grandfather Percival Taylor in 1919.  Annie was living at 255 Burley Road in Leeds at the time and Annie and Percival were married in the Parish Church in Burley.

There may have been a child of the marriage Ann, who my cousin is also anxious to trace as this would have been her Mother’s half-sister.  Percival got married again to May Schofield on his “death bed” in Littleborough, Lancashire in 1952.  Nothing is known of what happened to Annie or the possible child after 1919.

If anyone knows what happened to either of them, I would be most grateful, and I’m sure my cousin would be also.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: Ancestry's Ethnicity Update Is Finally Here - Share Yours!

To quote from the AncestryDNA Learning Hub.

“When a customer takes an AncestryDNA test, our scientists compare their DNA, piece by piece, to see which reference group each piece of that customer’s DNA most closely resembles. The ethnicities assigned to each piece of DNA are then totaled up and the percentages are calculated.”

So Ethnicity is derived from DNA by Ancestry.

How can I put this discretely.  DNA is a record of the Ancestors you have, your Family Tree is a record of the Ancestors you think you have.

Lancashire / Re: John Healey Taylor’s “Invalid for Life” accident, in between 1891 and 1901
« on: Tuesday 25 May 21 13:10 BST (UK)  »
At long last I have received the Death Certificate for John Healey Taylor from the GRO.

John Healey Taylor died of “Chronic Pneumonia”, “Phthisis”, which is Tuberculosis, apparently he was asthmatic and suffered from “Gangrene of the Lungs”.  So you were all right, there was no accident, he succumbed to an illness of the day TB, among other things.

John Healey Taylor was registered as John Taylor at his birth in 1861.  At his baptism in November 1861 he was baptised John Healey Taylor, no doubt after his mother Elizabeth Healey.  His middle name never stuck, and in all the Census’s from 1871 to 1901, on his Marriage Certificate and on his Death Certificate, he is recorded as John Taylor.  In the Family however, he has always been known as John Healey Taylor.

Thank you all for your help in clearing up this mystery.  The answer was in the Death Certificate as was suggested.

Lancashire / Re: John Healey Taylor’s “Invalid for Life” accident, in between 1891 and 1901

On page 254 of the Baptisms at St. John Church, Smallbridge, Rochdale, on 3rd November 1861 John Healey Taylor was baptised.  His mother was Elizabeth Healey, hence his middle name.  (John Healey Taylor was born in 1861, not 1862, a “slip of the pen”, sorry).

Heywood you are quite right, it might not have been an accident, that was an assumption made on my part.

I have searched the “Rochdale Observer” from 1891 to 1901, but I cannot find anything.  Having said that, Taylor is such a common name that I might have missed it.  The "Rochdale Observer" has no index.

Lancashire / John Healey Taylor’s “Invalid for Life” accident, in between 1891 and 1901
« on: Tuesday 18 May 21 14:31 BST (UK)  »
John Healey Taylor, born 1862 in Rochdale, married Priscilla Taylor in 1882, one of the daughter’s of my Great Grandfather William Taylor.  According to the 1891 Census, John was a Cotton Weaver.  On the 1901 Census he was not working, and was recorded as being an “Invalid for Life”.  John died in January 1903, aged 41 and was buried in Rochdale Cemetery.

Does anyone know what caused John’s injury, in between 1891 and 1901 and the date of that accident.  Which accident incapacitated him so much that he could not work ?
