Hi Peter

Could you please help - looking for Maria Hazelhurst born about 1823 Northwich Cheshire? Many thanks.

Hi Alice
           Can you tell me what info you have on her up to now, can you tell me her parents names, and the last census address you have.
           We should be able to find something, just need a start.

WHYATT   HADFIELD   SMITH   TRAVIS   WRIGHT   BARLOW


From census reports of 1851, 1871 and 1881, plus some BMDs, we have the following:

James WHYATT born c1812 Reddish Manchester - married M/C Cathedral Oct 1831 -  Agnes (aka Nancy) HADFIELD born 1812 Stockport

Nancy's mother was Mary [nee ukn] born c1777 Worcester, possibly  married to Joshua HADFIELD  (1851 census WHYATT household)

Children born to James Whyatt & Agnes (Nancy) Hadfield - Margaret 1833;
Alice 1836;  Thomas 1841;  Joseph 1843; Frank 1846;  John 1849 (my g-gf); Mary 1853 - all in Stockport.

Nephew:  Charles SMITH born c1835 Stockport (1851 census WHYATT household)

In 1851 family were at 11 Front Water St., Brinnington, Stockport.  In 1871
at 2 Water St., Brinnington.

Mary Hadfield died c1857.  James Wyatt died 1876.

Alice WHYATT (second daughter) married Cephus TRAVIS c1861.  Children:
Margaret c1862;  Frederick c1864 (is staying with James & Nancy 1871 census) and Mary c1870.

Cephus died;  Alice remarried in 1871 to Joseph WRIGHT born c1826 Kent.
Family found in the 1881 at 1 Howards Court Brinnington.  (Death &
remarriage FreeBMD-UK).

1881 - Nancy WHYATT nee HADFIELD a widow, office clearner aged 68 and lodger Elizabeth BARLOW age 21 located at 6 Barn St. Brinnington.  Nancy died c1893 (FreeBMD-UK).

There may have been a connection to Derbs, as my g-gpts' (married 1875 in Glasgow Scotland) third child was born at Red Row, Mellor, Hayfield, in
1883.  Fourth child, Agnes (aka Nancy) was born somewhere in that area or around Stockport in 1885.  Haven't found her birth yet.  G-gf was a "thostle overseer" in a Mellor cotton mill in 1883.  Charles SMITH and Elizabeth BARLOW also worked in cotton mills.

G-grandparents came to Halifax Nova Scotia, Canada in 1887 and other than myself and a couple of cousins here, it seems no one else has a interest/is researching them, although there are many WHYATTs still in and around M/C, Stockport and/or Derbs.     

Is anyone crossed linked?

If you are researching families from Cheshire please state the Family and the area you are interested in.
I am interested in Bebbingtons from Bunbury Spurstow Nantwich or other places near by

                 Benjamin born c. 1822
                 Ann, born c. 1823
                 Sarah, born c. 1826
                 James, born c. 1829
                 John, born c. 1831
                 William, born c. 1835

I have some marriages, some children, some puzzles and a great many blanks. 

Does anyone connect?

Re Sutton, William & Esther. I am an auctioneer in Sydney & have entered for my next auction May 21st 2005 a pair of oil portraits of William & Esther Sutton, probably painted around 1850's with details to the back mentioning dates & Stockport. As you are researching them I would think these would be of interest to you.

Sorry most of my relatives are from Bunbury Cheshire The main line I am looking on at the moment are the Bebbingtons. My Grandmother was Mary Ellen Bebbington who was born 1871 in Hulme Lancs. Those before that are from Bunbury Cheshire. I have gone back to Joseph Bebbington born 1840 marrried married to a margaret Boughie who died and Joseph married a Margaret Bowden
