Hi
   Not sure if I can suggest anything at the moment other than Cheshire R.O.
   Do you know if Thomas married at all and where? I have a Cheshire Marriage index, you say that his father died in Ashton is that A-on-Mersey or A-under- Lyne??
   It would seem that you have searched some parish records to have got as far back as you have,can you tell me which ones.

regards

Hi Peter,
Just wondering if you have had the time to further look into my READ family?  You mentioned looking for Ann MORRELL in the Wilmslow 1851 census.  Any
luck?
There seemed to be a couple of possible leads that you said you may be able to follow.
I've not yet sent for Elizabeth READ's birth certificate, but intend to do so.
Thank you so much for all the time and effort you've put into this for me. :)
best wishes,
Marie

Hi Marie
            I havn't forgot you, I have been trying to sort out the correct Morrell family there are a couple with a daughter named Ann both about the right age. Lifes never easy is it. I keep picking it up, scratching my head and putting down again, but I promise a concerted effort this weekend. Let me know when you have birth details for Elizabeth.

regards

Hi Kimberley
                   I have searched all the 1871 census resourses that have been published without finding Sarah or Henry.
                  One way to find out and proberbly the quickest would be to buy the birth certificate.

Sorry I can't be more help

Hi Marie

            Re 1851 census I am going to plump for Ann Morrall born Wilmslow 1841, ( see scan ) the other Ann born 1844 is shown on the census as born Mobberley. The way to prove this is right of course is to buy the marriage certificate of Ann and William Pallant ( 1863 prestbury ).
            It is difficult to go back further without this comfirmation.

regards
