Still trying to find the HARRISON family who were in Runcorn Cheshire in 1829.

My Gr Grandfather was Samuel Harrison born c1829 in Runcorn. His father was George Harrison who was an engine driver.

Can you please help? :'(

Re: ADSHEAD in the 1841 census.

Would some kind person see if they find a John Adshead in the 1841 census. John was born in either Morley or Fulshaw in 1813 (the LDS '81 census says Morley, the '61 and '71 returns both state Fulshaw, so I suspect Fulshaw is more likely).

I know John married in Kettleshulme in 1844 and appears to have been living there - but having scanned many pages of the census return in the Family history centre in London, I've drawn a blank (as well as having square eyes !)

many thanks in advance.

Adam.

I am looking for John Robinson of Stapeley parish of Wybunbury and family.  He was married around that area in the 1880s.  There seems to be two John Robinsons in the area about this time which makes it confusing.  One, John Robinson of Stapeley, was having kids in the 1880s, the other a John Robinson of Shavington was having kids in the 1890s.  Maybe he was the same person, remarried and moved?

Hi
      When you say of Stapeley Parish do you mean born or lived there, if you are wanting census records prior to his marriage who would be his parents ? when was he born ? and can you give full 1871 census details.

Hi Adam
             I have searched through the 1841 for all the Wilmslow parishes and can not find any thing, the 1841 for that area is only about 70% readable so it is quite possible I have missed them.

sorry can not help

Hi
     I believe the last time we had a look at this the decision was that the family may have moved from Cheshire by the time of the 1841 census,also you were going to enquire at the Cheshire records office,what was the outcome of your enquiry ?
   I see that you have found Samuel in Salford in 1871,have you found him in any other census prior to 71 ?
  can you give all the details from the wedding certificate including witnesses,address, full name of who he married and her father,ages, and church details.
  I will do my best to help but there are very few records to see prior to 1841.

Hi Peter,
I tried the records office but they could not find him. I have tried All Saints in Runcorn no luck there either.

I have him on the 1871 only I have his wife on the 1891 as a widow living with family.

The info I have on the marriage is from Manchester Cathedral where the marriage took place I did not go for the full cert as I thought that I had all the info I needed.

Samuel Harrison married Elizabeth Chapman 15 Aug 1852


Samuel 22 Batchelor (Waterman) resident of Silver Street Hulme. Father George Harrison Engine driver

Elizabeth 21 Spinster resident Silver Street Hulme father Edwin Chapman Finisher

They were still living in Hulme in 1863 when daughter Jane was born address James Place Southam Street


Thank you for trying again for me

kind regards
Sheila
