If any of them were in the cotton industry, here is a site, covering Manchester as well as Cheshire. ( there are Lightfoots mentioned on the page, as well)

HI   J.J.,

Thanks a lot for the info on the Cotton Industries.  I have read a lot but so far no luck but very interesting reading.

Now I did check out Barry Shaw, and unfornately we are not the same line. but he did give me some info on Peter s. and Dorothy , that they are both dead, and buried in the same cemetery as Dorothy parents .

But I will contact Derrick at the archives and see if he can help anymore on the other children. 

So thanks again, and I will just keep looking .  Who know maybe I will get it someday.

Thanks for all your hard work.

Shirely

Shirley did you ever piece your family puzzle together? So much more information all these many years later...

Did you see Anne Elizabeth had an older brother born 1859 who must have died young?

I can't possibly digest this thread once again, but saw you had a question regarding Dolly as a nickname...It can be used for Dorothy, but for many other names as well...

always link to other threads on same topic, and fill in found info
