Yorkshire (West Riding) / Re: Sutcliffe family
« on: Sunday 31 August 08 20:27 BST (UK)  »
Hi, Ernest is proving a problem, He retained the surname until his death, and I believe had a spell in the army prior to 1903, He was certainly in Bradford 1907 when he married his son's (my gfather) mother.
All I know about his time to that is his birth in the workhouse. I have details of his mother admitting herself, leaving with him. His baptism approx 12 months later. one of the three addresses Mary Ann Sutcliffe uses around this time is the address of Eli Salter and by what may be a very strange coincidence the address Ernest Sutcliffe gives at the time of his marriage in Dudley Hill, Bradford and is the home of Eli Salter.
I am not aware of any siblings etc. as it appears he spoke little about his past. On his marriage certificate he names Mary Ann Sutcliffe as his mother but she is not shown as deceased.
I am really scratching my head re this close ancestor of mine.
Thank you for your ideas so far.

Desperate for help.
I am trying to find the back history of Ernest Sutcliffe  born approx 1885 in the Bradford workhouse his mother was Mary Ann Sutcliffe, may have a connection with Eli Salter may not.
Both can only be found in these records and then disappear until 1903 when Ernest is the father other of my gfather (Albert Thorpe).
Do the names mean anything to anyone.
Cheers,
Glenn

Good Morning Gillian,
Thanks for the reply.  I do not wish to put you to too much trouble, but I have Sarah from 1841 and also John in the same year. I am, however, unable to find them prior to this - John being born about 1827, Sarah about 1810 give or take - clearly you have gone back beyond these dates. I am trying to trace our common line back from Sarah ( she appears to be from the Boroughbridge or there abouts - but yet ended up in Hunslet )
 
you may find reference to an Augusta Burton being in Sarah's household at some stage as a lodger..not true..she is Sarah's granddaughter.

I have just started work on the Nichols line Sarah's daughter married a Burton and it is from there the lines merge.

Hi, by chance I happened to Google Hunslet Hall. My ancestor is George Nichols (his daughter Emma marriaged John William Burton). Sarah has been a problem to me. You have managed to confirm her last name ( I suspected Frost ), but I am unable to trace her back to birth etc. Must be me if you have managed it, for some reason I am unable to find her in any indices as Sarah Frost born around 1812.
Help
Any chance you can point me in the right direction or give me some clues.

I have just started to try and follow some of wings to my tree.
