Thank you Gortonboy for your suggestion, I'm quite confused with the Lenz/Miller's.
Maybe someone out there has the death certificate of Caspar Miller 1860 ??
It isn't really my family but connected by Elizabeth Hoffman who married Casper Lenz (sister to my Conrad Hoffman).
I have a few certificates of the Lenz family and it's either Lenz or double barrelled Lenz Miller. Henry son of (Casper and Elizabeth) birth cert. he was Lenz married as Lenz but on his death certificate he was Miller Lenz and 1881 census Henry was Miller Long.
It has been suggested to me that John Miller on the 1861 census is actually Casper Lenz.
To anglicise the name Lenz to Miller mmm not to sure about that when they could have changed it to Long
I have been fascinated by this family, mainly Henry b: 1845 through everything Henry Lenz has beat all the odds and come out the other end a professor of music and even wrote an opera "The Drummer's Daughter" which was shown in Manchester and hailed a success.
Cheers

Hi
I have found this in newspapers.
This is my families address, could anyone please finish the message off for me. "I am, Sir .......
Little things like this just brings people to life.
At the same time as this was sent for, nephew Francis Hoffman was accused and sent to Australia for 10 years.
Sounds like a good cough Elixir.

Thank you all for the information you have all done fantastic look-ups for me.
I'll have a look on FindMyPast to see if they do have the records.
He isn't with his wife and children on the 1851 census I have looked so many times trying different combinations of his name, so maybe he's in an area where the damaged census wasn't able to be re-constructed.
The Thomas Pimlott death in 1858 sounds as if it would be him.
I didn't have him on the 1855 Slater's directory.
Cheers

Thank you all so much
Thank you for the possible deaths of John & Elizabeth.
And that Richard and Harriett are not his children. Maybe children f a Mr Powell?
I have John Darbyshire & Henrietta Powell Pimlott's marriage certificate in 1868. Henrietta's father was Thomas Pimlott occupation tailor.
Thomas was age 25 in 1841, born around 1816
I have a subscription to Findmypast. Manchester newspapers mmmmm maybe they would have something about Thomas or why Richard died so young.
Thank you I have Richard's death in 1872 age 22.
I haven't got Mary Ann Pimlott's will, does it give any other details ?
From England & Wales, National Probate Calendar (Index of Wills and Administrations), 1858-1966
Is this a pay to view or a subscripton sight ?
Thanks again
Ann

Lancashire / Vanishing family
« on: Saturday 24 November 12 05:20 GMT (UK) »
I have a very strange family.
1841 Deal Street Salford, I have Thomas Pimlott occ. tailor age 25 born ? no idea with wife Mary (nee Warhurst), son John age 2 and Elizabeth age 3.
Thomas is in a 1851 directory at Princess St, Salford.
Children born after John & Elizabeth were:-
Mary Ann Pimlott born 1845, Louisa Warhurst Pimlott 1847 Richard Powell Pimlott born 1849, Henrietta Powell Pimlott 1851.
Thomas must have been around in 1851 with being in a directory and the birth of Henrietta but I can't find a death for Thomas or children Elizabeth and John.
1851 Manchester, Mary Pimlott 35, dau. Mary 6, Lucy 4, and Richard.
1861 Mary Pimlott age 46 born Manchester was a widow living Salford in 1861 with children Mary Ann age 16, Louisa 14, Richard age 11 and Harriet (Henrietta) age 9
I also have no idea where the middle name Powell came from.
Mary Ann, Louisa & Richard were all baptised 22.8.1858 but Henrietta was baptised in 1852, strange seeing she was the last one born.
Any help sorting this family out for me would be fantastic.
Thank you
Ann
