I don't remember granddad mead I was about 4 when he died. Yes they must have moved back to Ellerbeck, I thought the same. Dad never spoke much about his mother or father, Grandma Mead died in the police court in Chorley and I think dad got the blame.

Hi John, I do know they were living at 6 Ellerbeck View in 1924 I have grandma Meads death certificate. On my fathers birth certificate they were living at 23 Cemetery Road in 1905. Sometime later George went to live 18 Chapel Street Horwich, that address was on my fathers discharge papers that was in 1945/1946 then before he died in 1953 he went to live with auntie Elsie in Woodville road.

When he settled in Adlington Lancashire he told family he came from Sutton in Ashfield. Most of the time he said he came from Nottingham.
On his marriage certificate in 1893 he stated his father was deceased and his name was Walter his profession was a Tackler. I think he arrived in Adlington, Chorley Lancashire in 1890 or 1891 he met and married Elizabeth Davies in 1893.
From 1893 I know it's previous to that I'm trying to trace.

George Mead born 1869/1870  Sutton in Ashfield  Nottingham.

Anything pre 1891 would help please. Nothing known about this person before 1891.

Everything seems to add up to Georges birth year as 1869.
I may be better concentrating on searching Nottingham.
Thank you

Walter I know nothing of at all. There are very few Walter Mead's in the censuses before 1871. I found a Walter that died in 1868 in Devises aged 41. He married an Ann Chapman and they had about nine children the last record I have is a Rhoda b. 1864 d 1868. Walter died 1868 so it could be possible that Ann was pregnant when he died.
George married a Elizabeth Davies in Chorley Lancashire in 1893, and states on his marriage certificate that his father Walter was deceased.
George died in Chorley in 1953 his death certificate says he was 85.
George always said he came from Nottingham, but I think he meant he came from Nottingham to Adlington Chorley. I have searched the Nottingham registers and have found no record of a Walter Mead with a son George.

I am looking for a Walter Mead perhaps born around 1820's 1830's and has a son named George born around 1867/68. Not much else to go on except George states on his marriage certificate in 1893 that his father was deceased and he was a Tackler.
